Very clean property! Would definitely stay here again. Well stocked. Owner was very helpful and easy going. Only one complaint, the steps are slippery when it is raining.
We had a very positive experience. The location was convenient to hikes and jaunts to Asheville. The place was cozy and had all amenities we needed. Would highly recommend.
We enjoyed the house and the amenities. Everything was clean and all appliances worked as described. We enjoyed our stay until Hurricane Helene showed up towards the last few days. We were never in any danger and far away from the flooding, there was no damage, no leaks, no trees down, so the property survived the storm. We will return for a longer visit next year.
We traveled up to Black Mountain from Charlotte to visit our daughters at Warren Wilson College. We were also able to go into Asheville for a dinner and enjoy a walk around Black Mountain. The photos are accurate, but I think the property is actually even a little better than could be conveyed in a picture. Really, a perfect little property at great price point. We hope to return.
This place was fantastic. Perfect Location close to everything. Was Quiet, good neighbors, spotlessly clean. We loved everything about it. The place is even better than the pictures. Great host, easy communications.
Especially close to Lake Tomahawk and a wonderful walking path. An excellent choice if you want to stay at Black Mtn. North Carolina.
This was our third stay at this vacation rental. It is around the corner from Lake Tomahawk for our daily walk and very convenient to downtown Black Mountain with great restaurants and shopping. As always the home is clean, comfortable and check-in is a breeze.
Really nice house - clean, comfortable, everything works well, good communication with host prior to stay, gorgeous nature surroundings, peaceful place.
We loved this property! The house was spotless & the neighborhood was nice & quiet. Great location for all the outdoor adventures we had planned. The beds were comfortable & the front porch was a great spot!
This home is even better in person than in the photos! My sister and I stayed here briefly while attending a family event in the area. When we arrived, we were delighted by how clean and well appointed the house was. The owner provided clear directions for the house rules, cleanout, etc. and was responsive to questions we had before arrival. Our trip was, unfortunately, hampered by the Microsoft/ClowdStrike IT outage which canceled and delays flights across the country in July 2024, so we were only able to enjoy part of the stay we booked - we did not get to fully explore the area which would have been nice. But the neighborhood was quiet and convenient to everywhere we needed to get to. Would love to stay here again should we return to the area in the future.
I had the great pleasure of staying is this wonderful home for 7 nights. The house is cozy comfortable, quiet, and equipped with everything I needed.
I look forward to retuning as soon as possible!
Cute little house that has everything you need. It was very clean. A few minute walk to a small lake with trail around it. You can fish, play tennis/pickleball or go to the community pool. Close to downtown shops and restaurants. We’ll be back next year!
Perfect for the two of us, and would also be great for family with 2 small/1 teenage children. Enjoyed morning walks around Lake Tomahawk, 2 blocks away. We didn’t cook, buts there were lots of dishes and cookware. Nice restaurants in town. We used this location as a hub for Biltmore, Blue Ridge Parkway (favorite overlooks being Craggy Gardens and Mt. Pisgah), waterfalls near Brevard, and Chimney Rock.
If we return to Asheville area, we’ll seek out this specific cabin.
Cozy little house. I sat outside on the covered porch a lot. Had a storm come through and take the power out for a little while. My daughter brought me some coffee from a local shop. Walked around Tomahawk lake, and town. Very nice place, enjoyed the area, it was just a short visit to pick up my daughter from college. I would like to stay longer next time with my wife.
This was our second stay at this vacation home. The location is excellent. It is a short walk to lovely Lake Tomahawk for our daily walk enjoying the fresh mountain air and birdwatching. The owners are very quick to respond and the house is well-appointed, comfortable and very clean.
What an adorable place in the quaint town of Black Mountain! We just loved the quiet area that was still walkable to downtown and Lake Tomahawk as well as a short drive to amazing hiking in Montreat and breathtaking views in the Blue Ridge Parkway. This darling cottage had everything we needed for our stay, including dishes, cookware, bakeware and even some bonus spices!! The master bed was comfortable and the decor of the home was trendy and tasteful. I highly recommend this adorable cottage. Hosts were very responsive and didn’t leave a chore list a mile long- LOL! While in Black Mountain be sure to stop at Black Mountain Cider + Mead and Oak and Grist Distillery for amazing local libations.
From arrival to departure...this was a lovely home to return to after a days adventure/meetings. Well apportioned and easy to use kitchen, comfortable beds, nice water pressure, and quality linens...just like home. Good communication and easy check in/out. Quick access to I40 to go into Asheville for meetings, plus ability to walk into Black Mt village for early morning coffee or dinner was so convenient. Evening walks around Tomahawk lake and a days hike on the Mountains to Sea Trail just a short drive away made for a perfect visit to Western NC. Highly recommend.
This is our third time staying at this lovely home. Although the check in details were not ready when we arrived and the cleaning had not been processed yet due to a mix up in scheduling, the owner quickly took care of it (as in just a couple minutes someone was there to clean - literally! Amazing!) and everything was as wonderful as it always has been. He did everything possible to make it right. It was done so quickly that by the time we rode to Starbucks for a coffee after the long drive and hit the grocery store for a few supplies, the home was ready and in great shape. This property is not only great for location and a beautiful place to stay, but it also has great owners managing it who care about those staying in their home. I’ve already booked my fourth stay here!
Perfect location near Lake Tomahawk and downtown. Fully stocked and very clean.
Owners very quick to respond. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Nicely updated inside
