The townhouse was absolutely beautiful for the sisters trip this was intended for, and everyone had an amazing time as well. While I did feel like Shelia going up the mountain as it is a very steep drive, it was very much worth it and the views were beautiful.

Great stay

This was a great vacation rental. My husband and I stayed with our 6 year old and our family friends and their 17 year old. There was so much room, the view was beautiful, the house in of itself was beautiful, and the game room and bunk beds were a thrill to pretty much everyone. We will be looking to stay here on our next mountain stay!

We had a blast staying at the hibernation station. The views were immaculate and the place was clean and inviting. There was plenty to do nearby as well as in the house for the days you just want to stay in. I definitely would like to come back here again with family or friends in the future.

Mountain Cabin

Cozy mountain cabin for our two families that was clean, comfortable and met all our expectations. Our kids enjoyed the game room and hot tub. Close to skiing and tubing activities. The higher elevation let us experience decent snowfall which we were really looking forward to this year! Def need 4WD/AWD to make it up the mountain road leading to the cabin.

50th birthday family trip

We had such a good time at this house. Our kids (27 and 29) loved the pool table and video games. The kitchen was fully stocked and we grilled out several times. We didn't have any issues, but the host checked in with us anyway. We loved every minute and we're already planning a trip this Fall when the leaves change!

The Best Comfort with Beautful Mountain Views

It was the perfect accomodations for us. We were 2 singles and one couple. We were each able to have our own bedroom and bathroom. There were plenty of places for gathering or for having privacy. The mountain view from the deck was spectacular. The house was furnished with everything we could possibly need. Everything was clean and well maintained. The hosts were attentive with checking in periodically by email to see if we needed anything of if there were any problems. It was about the best vacation rental my friends and I have ever stayed in!

Wonderful escape to the mountains

We had an amazing stay here with our family, friends and fur babies. The house is very big and accommodated our group of 8 very well. The kitchen had everything we needed to eat-in comfortably and the living room was super cozy. Our kids loved the giant bunkbed room, xbox and game room. The wifi was strong enough to accommodate everyone's TVs + phones + devices. And to top it off, the views from the property were breathtaking! The road to the property is quite steep, but my sister's small car made it with a little extra speed. We appreciated the quick responses we got when reaching out to the owners with questions and we're already talking about going back in the winter.

Fantastic Mountain Retreat in Asheville, NC

We recently stayed at this incredible mountain rental in Asheville, NC, and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The property is perched near the top of the mountain, offering breathtaking views and a sense of tranquility that made our trip unforgettable.The space was impressively spacious, easily accommodating our group of nine, including kids. Every corner of the house was spotless and well-organized, which made settling in a breeze. It was evident that the hosts put great care into maintaining the property.The location was a huge bonus—just a short 10-minute drive to the new Hatley Point ski station. Additionally, there were things to do at the rental itself, keeping everyone entertained throughout our stay.This rental truly felt like a home away from home and provided the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a mountain getaway!
