The Best of All Worlds Just Got Even Better!

Fresh updates and thoughtful touches have taken this mountain-top escape to the next level: new paint, a new roof, and new windows now frame an even clearer panoramic view of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains.

We hold cleanliness to the highest standard. All of our linens are professionally laundered, ensuring a fresh, immaculate stay every time.

Breathe in the crisp mountain air and soak in the vibrant colors of the seasons from this peaceful perch in Pisgah Forest, overlooking the charming city of Brevard.

This beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath North Carolina retreat offers the best of all worlds—solitude and serenity, paired with modern luxury and easy access to culture and convenience. Enjoy inspiring mountain views, spectacular sunsets, and complete comfort in this well-appointed chalet nestled at 2,500 feet.

You're just five minutes from the vibrant heart of Brevard, with its music, boutique shopping, gourmet markets, and acclaimed restaurants. Inside the home, you'll find a cozy yet elegant space with an open Great Room, a serene Master Bedroom, and a spacious balcony/deck—each offering sweeping 180° views of the mountains. We’ve recently upgraded the bathroom with a sleek walk-in shower for enhanced comfort.

Set on two acres of flowering forest, this private, romantic getaway is perfect for couples, families, or anyone seeking peace and beauty in nature. It’s safe, convenient, and immersed in the wild tranquility of Transylvania County.

As a classical musician, I was drawn to Brevard’s rich artistic spirit and slower pace. This area soothes the soul with its natural charm, and I love sharing this space with others who appreciate its magic. Whether you’re here for inspiration, relaxation, or adventure, this is the perfect place to call home.

Explore the Land of Waterfalls

Pisgah Forest is part of the Land of Waterfalls—home to over 250 cascading falls and surrounded by 50% protected National Forest. You’re just 15 minutes from Dupont State Forest and iconic spots like Triple Falls and High Falls. Sliding Rock, Looking Glass Falls, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are all within a scenic 30-minute drive.

Retreat or Vacation—You Choose

Whether you’re planning a rejuvenating solo retreat or a fun-filled family getaway, this home has everything you need. The kitchen is fully equipped for gourmet meals, complete with elegant dishware, wine glasses, and a gas grill for alfresco dining. Enjoy delicious dinners as the sun dips behind the mountains—an unforgettable end to each day.

Surrounded by natural beauty and filled with thoughtful comforts, this mountain-top haven invites you to relax, recharge, and reconnect—with yourself, your loved ones, and the rhythms of nature.

Excellent Birthday Stay

We rented out the house for a weekend in late February and it was absolutely perfect. Very clean, spacious, and breath taking views. Central location, easy access to trails and the town, it was all we could hope for. Thank you Luanne for making my mom’s 53rd birthday very special!

Exceeded expectations

The home has everything you need for a perfect weekend getaway - incredible views, comfort, cleanliness, amenities, and charm. Plus, the location could not be better. The only thing missing was a working grill... but everything else made up for that. We look forward to our next visit.

Glorious views and comfortable home

We have stayed in several different homes in Brevard over the past 25 years and the view from this home exceeds all others. The grassy area for walking pups is the best we have had as well. Luanne appoints all her properties with high-end furniture and accessories. Sheets, towels, and appliances are all in excellent shape. Furthermore, Luanne is easy to work with and she is very responsive.

Great location with nice views

Good location to town and 2 breweries within 2 miles of the property. Steep road getting to the property, but that is to be expected with a high point property and nice views. We took advantage of the grade by walking it with our dog. Would of appreciated some notice when the owner arrived unannounced to get some dull knives for sharpening (which we were fine with what was already there). I found this odd. The property is as advertised and the photos of the views are accurate as well. Having the garage was accommodating for our cycling gear as well. Overall worth it.

Great location

Very nice house, exactly as described, clean and fully stocked. The location is great for exploring all activities in the area. The road leading to the house is very steep but it is not a problem this time of the year. Overall, great stay. My only surprise was the pet policy (no pets on furniture, etc.), this should be disclosed prior to booking in the property description. It's hard to fully enjoy the place where your best furry friend is not really welcomed.

Fantastic views and location

This is our second time staying in Brevard, NC and our first time at The Best Of All Worlds. It's a perfect vrbo, easy to find and literally 7 minutes from downtown mainstreet but tucked away on the back side of a mountain facing sunset and gorgeous mountain views from the patio and living room. I highly recommend staying here, we had a blast and the grassy fenced dog run is great if you can't trust your pooch off leash or want to play ball with your dog. There's a ton to do in the area if you like waterfalls, hiking, breweries, or mountain biking. Downtown has some really great shops and you must stop by for dinner at Square Root for a special surprise meal, we would have eaten there every night if we knew how incredible it was. Overall 10/10 we would absolutely stay again at Luanne's. Thanks!

Great place to relax after spending the days on the trails.

The house was perfect and ideal for our needs - we had a great time on all accounts. The location provides easy access to town, grocery and more importantly to Pisgah National Forest and Blue Ridge Parkway South. Added bonus, amazing views of the sun setting each night. Thanks Luanne!

Great stay!

Great all around! Check in and out easy. Great directions. I didn’t need the host for anything but the notebook said she was close by if I needed her. Super comfy beds! Great pillows and bedding. Clean. Great fireplace. Def cozy! Great views. Steep drive up to get to the cabin but once you do it a few times its fine really. We were in a mid size car and it was no problem. Had we had snow or ice. Yikes. But the weather was great. We like hiking so this cabin is a great location to get to so many cool trails. Downtown Brevard is cute. We tried several local places for breakfast. Grammys, Brevard Diner, and Creekside Subs. We enjoyed them all. Would probably skip Jordan’s if your a young family. Great food for brunch but very expensive. Some places closed. Soda shop for ice cream cause you can’t not visit the soda shop. Not a town for after Christmas deal shopping except the one small little jewelry store down from the soda shop. The gentleman who owns that shop was so kind. Gave me a discount on a pair of earrings I purchased. Super nice. We went into Asheville to the outlets for shopping. BBQ. Luella’s two in Asheville. One north one south. Sooo YUMMO!! Great little area where the cabin is located. Nice homes. White squirrel running around. It is a perfect little cabin. I didn’t cook much. At all really. :). It’s called vacation. :). The kitchen has everything you need if you like to cook. Ingles grocery store not far. If I could change one thing it would be the coffee pot. I am a K cup person. Brought all my fave Christmas flavors to find a traditional style coffee pot. A k cup is a better option in my opinion for guests.:) The upstairs shower is small but because you have a small wall heater I didn’t care about the small shower. That wall heater was wonderful🥰. All in all a great vacay!! Already talking of booking again!

About the host

Hosted by Luanne Allgood

Host profile image

After a fulfilling career as an Executive Producer in the commercial film industry in Miami, I made a meaningful shift to pursue my passion for hospitality and community. Along the way, I’ve been humbled to receive recognition for my work, including a feature on NBC Nightly News’ Making a Difference segment, a spotlight in USA Today, and the Leave a Legacy award for my creative and compassionate efforts with the homeless and other underserved communities.

Today, I call the beautiful Pisgah Forest home, where I spend my time chasing waterfalls and uplifting others. Having rented homes across the globe, I now find deep joy in hosting guests in my own spaces. Each property is designed to offer a thoughtful, soul-nourishing experience—whether you're seeking rest, inspiration, or a spark of adventure. My goal is simple: to make your stay something truly special.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for a very clean, beautiful vacation home, this property is for you. It has all of the amenities that you would expect and all of the comforts of home.

We are located on the mountain but can be in downtown Brevard in 5 minutes or hiking at Dupont State Forest in 20 minutes. It has a great view and is very private! You'll find the home nicely furnished with all of the comforts of home: Wifi, Flat Screen TV etc....

What makes this property unique

This property has a gorgeous view! Everyone raves about the sunsets over the mountains. It is very comfortable and on a 2 acre wooded lot.
