About this property

Scenic Views and Outdoor Paradise

Great home in the heart of the Pisgah Forest. Very close to downtown Brevard and only 45 minutes from downtown Asheville. You will be able to visit all the local waterfalls, enjoy the great breweries, and still have relaxing nights at home with a great view. This home is split between two sides, which makes it ideal for families and those looking to just get away. Make sure to come with a sense of adventure and ready to experience all that nature has to offer.

Tree House Vibe

We had a great vacation here. It was close to where we wanted to visit and we really enjoyed coming “home” after a long hot day to our cool tree house.

Great mountain visit

Had a great time here-the right size for three couples, three kids, and a dog. Particularly enjoyed utilizing the well stocked kitchen & grill for every meal, and, the deck for easy outside time. Convenient Dupont & Pisgah for hiking. Hope to be back!

Beautiful

We absolutely loved our stay with our family and two small dogs. It was the perfect location for hiking and heading to Brevard for dinner or lunch. It was the perfect quiet escape for us before our summer gets crazy. The property was fully equipped for anything you might need, and the view was beautiful.

Beautiful location!

Our family spent Thanksgiving together at Jeff’s place and we had such a wonderful time! It was the perfect place for the 7 of us. Everything was great, we had everything we needed, and Jeff was very quick to respond to any questions we had. One thing we wished would’ve worked was the gas fireplace in the main living room. But otherwise, we couldn’t recommend this place more!!

WONDERFUL place to stay!!!

My son and I stayed here for several days, and I can’t say enough about how amazing of a place it was! The mountainous view were amazing from the windows and deck, and the pics don’t do it justice. Reserving and checking in was a breeze. Close to town. Will definitely stay here again, and I suggest to anyone looking at this property to stay. You will not be disappointed!!!

Very private location

We enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the home as well as the layout. There are separate living areas which worked out great for our family. The home was very comfortable and the location was great. It was a easy drive in to Hendersonville which we really enjoyed.

Mountain retreat

The house was more spacious than expected, it has an open feel and there's room to spread out on the deck and the computer room gave a place for my sister to get some work done while on vacation. Convenient location, there's a Walmart nearby, Pizgah National Forest attractions, and restaurants and shops in Brevard. We even got to see a white squirrel in Brevard. It was a great stay at a great place!

Cool and Green in Pisgah Forest

Within minutes to Pisgah And Dupont forests, this house withmountain views ideal for a large family, group of friends. Or as in our case perfect for rotating visits by friends and family. Spacious, with the mast bdrm on one side, three bwdrooms on the other half. Living rooms on both sides. With an open kitchen plan, and fully equipped for meals of any size. Our idea of a perfect mountain house,convenient to both Brevard and Hendersonville.

Love the sunsets

This place was amazing, I would definitely stay here again, my teens loved having their own section of the house and so did I. We loved the sunset views!! I miss the bed already. I would recommend a more comfortable couch near the kitchen and better shower pressure, but this wouldn’t stop me from going back!! Thanks!

Our second visit!

We came back for more! The location and view are hard to beat. We enjoyed our stay overall, but was less than impressed in the cleanliness of the property considering the extra cleaning fee that was added onto the rental price.

Great setup for 2 families

We spent 3 nights here and the house was well setup for our needs. We spent our days hiking in the near by Pisgah Forest and then ventured into Asheville to visit various breweries and restaurants. The house was clean and had a great view through the trees. The oversized couches and 2 TV rooms were nice to watch some football while the kids could watch something else in the other room.

What A View

First thing upon entering the home is the expansive view of the mountains. We enjoyed having the 2 separate living quarters when family visited. We used the office every day for "working from home" activities. The owner was very responsive to an appliance issue. Directions to property and ease of checking in were spot on.

Gorgeous views!

Great stay. Overall very clean. A huge property with tons of space. Would definitely stay here again. Conveniently located to all of Asheville. Only negative would be the listing said the fireplaces worked but they are deactivated for insurance purposes. Also bring a hair dryer. I couldn’t find one. Owner very easy to communicate with.

Great family trip to a North Carolina mountain home!

There were ten of us ranging from age 10 -73, including two pre-teens, four teens, four adults. We found the house to fit our needs exactly with plenty of room to spread out. It is very much in the forest but also close to lots of North Carolina activities. We visited the Biltmore and Asheville, but spent most of our time outside at the river and in the little nearby towns, including an outdoor concert, River Fest, Sliding Rock, and an accidental encounter with the Transylvania Cruisers car club which we loved. We ate most of our meals at home and the kitchen and grills were very adequate for our needs. If we have any suggestions it might be some new pillows and a few more deck chairs. Overall we highly recommend this property!

The Boobie House

Sorry about that title, but if you look at this place on satellite, it cannot be helped! This is a fantastic property just as advertised. Possibly even a little larger inside than we expected. Having two separate wings was perfect for our family get away, especially because our granddaughters are 2 1/2 and five and prone to…you know what little kids do. So having our master bedroom space in the west wing was great. The fabulous deck and large windows round out the experience. This location is truly in the heart of beautiful mountain country, with famous waterfalls, state parks, the Blue Ridge Parkway, etc. all close by.

Loved the house, very spacious for my large family.

We loved the house, it was very spacious for my large family. We would definately consider this home again. The only negative was the WIFI never worked & the television also went off several times. The cleaning woman was great & so accommodating as well as the property manager. We could of used more towels & some dish washing detergent. I felt guilty leaving the dishwasher loaded with dirty dishes but we did not plan ahead on bringing detergent.

Amazing views

The property is beautiful, the views outstanding, the house set up is perfect for family gathering with children as there are two sides. Easy drive to the mountains and grocery store. Our only issue were the beds, the mattresses are horrible, we all sleep on firm mattresses but these were beyond firm. It was easy to tell the quality was a poor grade, after hiking all day, collapsing on the bed was not the best. However, do not let this deter you as it really is a lovely place. Everything you need is there. And my family loved it.

Wonderful layout

This property has a fantastic layout! There are two "pods" and that is perfect for groups who have early birds and late birds. They even have separate HVAC controls in each pod which is also awesome. Only a couple of things to consider when renting this location: 1) although parking is excellent, the walk from the parking area to the house is treacherous making it challenging for older guests. The walkway is rock which in and of itself is not a problem, but the rocks are of widely varying heights and there is no handrail - it is not an easy trek, and 2) the house is well outfitted, but could benefit from additional lighting as it can be a bit dark. Other than these two items, we can recommend a relaxing stay at this property. Do note that despite this location feeling small townish, you are quite close to Asheville and all that it has to offer.

Great property, except for just one thing

This is a fabulous property - good layout, great views, good kitchen, great TVs - we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. BUT... for a house that can accommodate 8 people, there's only seating for 4 at the dinner table, and there are no other chairs that height in the house. That was a real shortcoming when one night we had 6 adults for dinner.
