Larger Downstairs Bedroom
This room has a Queen sized bed with a pillowtop, Serta mattress, a large screen tv, futon couch (bring your own sheets/blanket for futon couch) and an outdoor access to the patio and hot tub.

Smaller Downstairs Bedroom
This room has a very comfortable, queen sized hybrid mattress with pocketed coils. The room adjoins the main bathroom.

Upstairs Bedroom
This is the more private of the three rooms which overlooks the pond and waterfall. It has a queen sized hybrid mattress with pocketed coils. The room also has a private bathroom.

Covered and Open Outdoor Decks
Outside there are two very large decks for relaxing. One is a covered deck that has a glass table with 6 chairs for enjoying a meal. At the other end of the deck there are 2 rocking chairs to enjoy the view of Reynolds Mountain. This is the perfect place to cool off from the hot sun or stay dry while enjoying the cool rain.

The back deck has a seating area with a pergola covered with wisteria for shade. Under the shaded pergola is an outdoor patio set with a couch, two chairs and a table to relax and read a book. On the other side of the deck there is a patio table that has 4 chairs with an umbrella. Both tables have views of the pond and waterfall. It is nice to sit out there at night and listen to the frogs croaking and the insects buzzing in the background.
On the other side of the pergola is the private hot tub for a nice relaxing dip.

Fire Pit
The fire pit is the perfect place to relax in the evening while listening to the waterfall and nature. Don't forget your wood, smores and fun campfire stories!

Graduation Trip with my Grandsons

The three of us were exploring Asheville for the first time and wanted a space where we could have our own rooms and flexibility with dining. This house was perfect for us. The location was convenient for all of our exploring and the house was roomy, the kitchen well equipped, and everything was clean. I am most appreciative of how responsive Stacey to all of our questions, including sending us an ipad left behind! Our thanks for a delightful stay!

Good communication with the owners. Cabin style home with great hot tub and patio area. Tranquil setting. Not far from the town of Ashville. Light in the bedrooms isn't very strong and a few more mirrors could be added. Lovely and enjoyable stay!

Comfy Cabin

Log cabin was clean & well equipped. We enjoyed the hot tub & big front porch. Loft is filled with toys that are tempting to children,, but guest book says not to use them?? Location was good, beds were comfy. Rain let us indoors too much, but still - a very nice place to stay.

This was a wonderful cabin close to downtown Asheville. The beds were very comfy and the hot tub was WONDERFUL! We stayed in the fall so the house was a comfortable temperature. It might get really warm in the summer and there weren’t any screens on the windows. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Nice enough place

The location is ideal, about 15 minutes from downtown but also secluded enough that you could believe you were way off in the mountains. The hosts are great. Stacey was super responsive. The property is good but flawed. The upstairs bed is tucked under an eave that makes sitting up a little dangerous. The hot tub pump hums at night, which takes you out of the tucked-in-the-mountains illusion. The main issue was the maintenance. There were spiderwebs on the light fixtures. Every fourth light bulb, inside and outside, was out. Pieces of trim fall off cabinets constantly. The towels were all mildewed when we arrived and so we were doing laundry before we unpacked. I keep looking at the cleaning fee on the receipt and feeling like I got suckered. But the washing machine worked well. The couches were comfortable. The waterfall was neat and bear cubs were playing in it when we arrived, which really made it feel like a getaway. There was juuust enough hot water for three dudes and the fire pit was nice. (Bring a LOT of your own wood, because it's pretty exposed to wind, and the stove-heater inside has been disabled.) I don't regret staying here at all, and I could see coming back, but I would look at other properties first.

The house was perfect for our needs with plenty of space and overall sense of coziness. Sitting in the hot tub and taking in the nature is a must.
