Still Top of the Line Asheville Mountain Cabin

My mountain cabin survived Hurricane Helene without any problem. I'm thankful for that. However, Asheville and WNC will take time to rebuild. Please consider visiting us soon!

For those who want to be close enough to Asheville that you can easily drop in, but also prefer peace and privacy in your own luxurious perch on top of the world, this is your spot!!

This stunningly beautiful, modern and immaculately clean cedar log home has year-round postcard-like views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. And, it has the best of both worlds - total privacy, yet only 15 minutes to the center of Asheville - so close you can catch an Uber/Lyft.

There's a sense of peace and calm you'll immediately feel when you enter the bright, open floor plan, gaze up at the 18' ceilings, look out over endless views, and settle into the cabin's peaceful setting, located on 18 private acres.

Enjoy some time on the deck, taking in views of rolling farmland, endless mountain ridges, and an ever-changing sky. Watch as hawks and eagles soar gracefully upward on thermal air currents. See how magically the sky changes at sunrise and sunset. Look up into the night sky to see more stars than you've seen in years. Soak in the indulgently luxurious hot tub on top of the world. Walk the grounds, its private road and trails, and discover the amazing diversity of native plants and flowers. And take time to listen to the bubbling spring-fed stream that flows behind the cabin.

Relaxing cabin above the clouds
Spent a great weekend at the house with my parents and dogs. Perfect spot to escape from the business of Asheville but close enough to pop in for dinner. The location is so nice and quiet. The hot tub is the cherry on top. Definitely recommend this spot.

Quiet getaway
The switchbacks are a bit challenging in the dark, so arrive when it is still light out. Cabin and landscaping was absolutely amazing when we pulled up to it. Easy directions to enter. Beautiful interior. Everything you need for a few days to a few month stay. Beautiful sunsets. Sounds of wildlife hypnotic at night. Only one negative, which was no big deal: The floor/walls were thin- we could hear whispered conversations from the 1st floor bedrooms, and they were kept awake with the snoring coming from the upstairs bedroom. Would definitely re-book this cabin and work with this property owner again.

This place was very comfortable and very well kept. The location on top of a mountain was ideal. The road was adventurous but worth it. The cabin had everything you needed and then some. The furniture was very comfortable as well as the beds. The entertainment equipment was top notch. We enjoyed streaming our music on the surround sound. There was quite a selection of dvds. The hot tub was great after hiking. Kelly even had robes to wrap yourself in after getting out. The dogs enjoyed the deck a lot. The area has lots to do, Asheville, Blue Ridge Parkway, restaurants and of course breweries. Kelly was great to deal with. We all highly recommend this place and we will be back.

This location was a perfect getaway with fantastic views and we had great weather. It was a quick trip into Asheville and was a very quiet and relaxing location to stay. Host was very responsive and helpful. The only concern was the last turn on the road to the home as a car did get stuck and they were able to rock it over the groves in the road. Four wheel drive vehicles were fine. I would rent again!

Nice cabin in the woods - just what we expected. About 20 minutes from downtown Asheville. We had an unfortunate incident occur at the property, and Kelly was very understanding, compassionate and professional in helping us resolve the issue. Kelly is a perfect example of the type of owner you want when booking a VRBO.

Quiet hillside property with pleasant view
The house was comfortable and clean with a well equipped kitchen. The hot tub worked well. I appreciated the advanced home theatre system. The owner responded quickly when the fireplace wouldn't work, but the home is well insulated and was still comfortable. The only drawback was the steep and sharp turns of the driveway. We had a ford explorer and the last turn was still difficult to manuever. Still a comfortable stay and convenient location to Asheville and rural areas to the NW.

Beautiful mountain home
What a beautiful place that is private yet close to everything. The 1st time up the road will probably cause a little anxiety lol but every subsequent time is 100% easier :) the views are spectacular. The hot tub is perfect to read a book, have a glass of wine, and take in the scenery. Beds are comfy. Literally our only issue was the roku was old and didn't work- however the owner said he is replacing it so shouldn't be any problems for future renters.

The perfect reset
We enjoyed this cabin so much. The cleanliness was amazing and lots of little details were thought of to ensure a pleasant stay. I even had to run out and buy the same shampoo and conditioner after because we enjoyed it so much. The views from the deck are amazing. The surround sound left us just playing music and watching the views for hours. Several other reviewers commented on the driveway. We had no problems in my full size truck. Most of the road to the cabin is paved and we never saw another vehicle while driving. We drove this day and night without issue. If you are contemplating a stay I would strongly suggest this one. It will be the reset you are looking for.
