Cabin on the mountain
Just a few miles from downtown Asheville, this 3 bedroom cabin was perfect for our adult family stay. The kitchen had a good selection of tools, the beds were all comfy, and the foggy view over the valley was beautiful.

Cabin in the mountains
We enjoyed our stay. The location close to the city, but tucked away in the mountains, allowed us to enjoy some time in nature with the attractions of Asheville a short drive away. The home was comfortable and well equipped for four adults. It seems like bear sightings are quite common and we ran across a bear on two separate occasions on the road a short distance from the house. If we ever come to the Asheville area again, we would be happy to stay here.

Roomy and nice location but…
The house is spacious and in a nice location. If you’re interested in a rustic, somewhat dated cabin feel, then this house is a good option. Personally, I prefer a more updated look and feel, along with inviting well- maintained decks. We chose this place because of the view but there’s only a small space where the mountain range is viewable and it’s beside a very prominent dead tree.

Nice hideaway
Best part is the view! So nice to sit on porch & relax! Had a good stay with everything we needed. Great location. Comfortable beds & bedding. Backing out of house a bit cumbersome like others have mentioned but made it work. Grant, the host, responds quickly & accompanied any needs we had. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful house and view!
We live on the Outer Banks of NC and enjoy visiting Asheville several times a year and we always rent a home in the area for a week for our family. We've stayed in wonderful places but this haven in the mountains checks all the boxes! Nestled among the trees and the view is spectacular, close proximity to Asheville ($7 Uber ride), comfy beds, well equipped home, porches and wildlife! 2 bear sightings in the yard, a raccoon and beautiful birds! We will definitely come back!

Great for a family getaway
We had a great time! The cabin was very clean, had everything we needed, and absolutely beautiful views of the mountains. As others have said, getting to the cabin and the parking is a little tricky, the parking spots are tight and steep. But I think that’s to be expected with a cabin in the mountains. It’s close to town but feels like you’re far away, it’s a very peaceful location.

Breathtaking Views!
Stayed here three nights as part of a cross-country road trip. It was our favorite of all VRBOs on this trip. The views are divine! The house is large, comfortably furnished and has a well-equipped kitchen. Having the washer and dryer in the house was a real plus. With three adults (one couple), the layout allowed for privacy for the couple on the second floor and convenience for the single on the first floor. We found the driveway to be easily manageable with our SUV (not 4WD). Parking was easy and right at the house. We would love to stay at this rental again.

Mountain Life/City Life
The pictures of this cabin look awesome. I chose it because of all the windows, light, balconies, and location. It is comfortable and well furnished. The location to Asheville is very convenient. The master bedroom is upstairs and is a suite. The two bathrooms are small and present some challenges to share but can be done.The number of towels in each bathroom is impressive. The outside of the cabin could use a good cleaning and some improvements. That is cosmetic but would be nice. The outside furniture does not invite you to “come and relax.” We could not get the upstairs t.v. To show a picture. The owner nor manager were helpful in response to this matter. Parking for one car is adequate but more would be a challenge. Overall, we enjoyed our stay in the mountains.

Rental in the trees
This house is in great shape and in a beautiful location close to downtown Asheville. The porch needed to be cleaned after spring's pollen along with some interior ceiling fans. The kitchen needed more flatware but otherwise was very nice and the owner provided much appreciated paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, body soap and toilet paper. The road up to the home is winding but doable, the driveway is very steep but in the warmer months should be no problem. I would definitely recommend using your emergency brake once you've parked up hill hear the house. There are bears in the woods at times so be careful not to let your children or dogs roam around by themselves. The bears live there and the ones we saw were just hanging out letting the cubs play. If you don't bother them, they shouldn't bother you. Please note the house rules for disposing of garbage and securing the home before leaving. This home was a delight! A beautiful oasis in the trees with fantastic views!!! If you're traveling in the winter it's highly recommended to have 4 wheel drive. We will definitely be renting this home again.
