About this property

Unwind on top of our private 2 acre mini-mountain! This vacation home is secretly nestled above Lake Louise and about half a mile from downtown Weaverville (short drive to Asheville). It has everything needed to enjoy an awesome mountain getaway: an ideal location, privacy, cleanliness, comfort, and entertainment.

THE HOUSE:
This home features an open floor plan and original mid-century heart pine floors that lead to a spacious covered porch, grill, and fenced back yard. Enjoy a glass of wine by the fire pit on the front patio.

The kitchen is fully stocked with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in service pantry.

The laundry room and bonus room are located off of the pantry. The bonus room features an original stone fireplace and custom stained glass to provide a cozy area for playing board games and doing puzzles.

The bathrooms (2) and bedrooms (3) are appointed with locally sourced handmade soaps and luxury linens. Each bedroom contains the following:
•Master: King bed, open en suite bathroom
•Second Bedroom: Queen bed, separate entry
•Third Bedroom: Twin bed with electric adjustable base and massage settings

The property has been lovingly renovated by us, and is our second home (but you will have the entire property to yourself).

Pets are considered - please email in advance of booking and describe your pet. There is a $25/night pet fee and additional house rules pertaining to pets.

THE LOCATION:
Weaverville is an ideal location – being an Asheville area attraction in itself (just minutes away), it offers small town charm, abundant dining options, shopping, and various attractions of its own.

From the house, one can walk or drive to downtown Weaverville (please refer to the walking map in the welcome book upon arrival for sidewalk route). Downtown is home to numerous locally owned shops, galleries, breweries, and award winning restaurants – including one of America’s best small town bakeries (Well-Bred). The area also has many outdoor adventures to choose from (e.g. hiking on the Blue Ridge Parkway, zip lining at Navatat, golf at Reems Creek Golf club, etc.).

At Lake Louise (across the street from the house) you’ll find a 0.6mi walking trail around the lake, outdoor gym, large playground, covered picnic area and various community events. Capture photos at the small waterfall and antique water wheel.

Fabulous Property With Great Hosts

My husband and I had a wonderful visit in this lovely home. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more, we humans or our pups. The property is spacious, comfortable, and in a great location. There were many special touches including wine and snacks, cozy blankets, and a well equipped kitchen. The beds are very comfortable and the property is sound proof and felt safe and secure. We especially enjoyed sitting in the backyard watching our small dogs play inside a secure fenced-in area. Mary and Greg are gracious hosts and we very much look forward to our next visit.

Charming Getaway in Weaverville: A Home Away From Home!

Our recent 4-day stay at this Weaverville gem, nestled in the mountains, left us utterly delighted! From the moment we entered, the ambiance of this beautiful home captivated us. The attention to detail was outstanding, and the cleanliness was impeccable. Mary, the gracious host, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, offering a personalized touch that made us feel genuinely welcome. The location was perfect – a short stroll to the scenic Lake Louise and a quick drive to the vibrant city of Asheville. We enjoyed the quaint town's charm and found ourselves at home in this cozy retreat. Highly recommended for a memorable and relaxing escape! 5 stars without a doubt!

Perfect Location & Pet Friendly

We enjoyed staying in the extremely clean and cute Mini Mtn Hideaway! We were close to downtown, Stony Knob restaurant and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Every morning my pup, Zoe and I walked down the hill to the track around Lake Louise. We had beautiful weather and our host, Mary couldn't have been more accommodating! We hope to visit again.

Relaxing Stay in Beautiful Mountain Town

Mini Mnt Hideaway is a wonderful property! The home was spotless, comfortable and well-equipped. A welcome note and sign from Mary, our host, was a thoughtful touch. The note included a few local restaurant recommendations that were spot on. We especially enjoyed the back porch for reading and relaxing. It was a short walk to Lake Louise with it's paved walking path. Downtown Weaverville was minutes away with good food and coffee options. It's also a short drive from Asheville attractions. We would definitely recommend Mini Mtn Hideaway and hope to visit again!

Excellent accommodations

My friends and I just stayed at this property and we loved everything about it. The back porch was the favorite space for us to catch up and relax. The location is perfect and the lake and park across the street adds to the value of this rental. The beds were comfortable and so many extra amenities were included that you just dont find at most rentals. We definitely plan to stay here again.

Mini Mountain Hideaway

Our stay at the mountain house in Weaverville, NC was simply ethereal! The back porch is a serene oasis, overlooking a picturesque property with stunning sunsets. Our family, including our furry friends Capicola and Chorizo, enjoyed leisurely walks around Lake Louise. The charming town, with its plethora of fabulous shops and restaurants, made for a truly unforgettable experience. We cannot wait to return to this idyllic haven!

Lovely home overlooking Lake Louise

The property was accurately represented on VRBO. The property is secluded, had a well-stocked kitchen and a plethora of games. The back porch has great views and was a relaxing place to spend time. The home is conveniently located to Asheville, grocery stores, and restaurants.

Cozy, Comfortable, and Clean Home

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Lakeside home. It was very clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the living areas/porch were spacious and inviting. The location is ideal for seeing Asheville and Weaverville. We loved walking in the park across the street and into Weaverville. Lunch at Curate was amazing. Hiking Triple Falls and Graveyard Fields was fun and beautiful. We were happy to retire to our Lakeside home after our adventures. Highly recommended.

Convenient, Comfortable and Clean

We were very pleased with our stay at this home. It is an easy 10-15 min drive to Asheville, close to the very cute little town of Weaverville with grocery and other stores a short drive away. The house was very clean and well stocked. There is a very nice porch at on one side with a view of the small lake, and a nice outdoor sitting area at the entrance. The fenced in yard was great for the dog. The house is cozy, bright and comfortable. The host was very quick to respond when a few questions came up. I would definitely recommend this property.

Great Location

The house had plenty of room and everything you’d need for cooking or grilling. There were tons of games and books to occupy folks in case of bad weather. The park at Lake Louise is at the bottom of the driveway which was great for me and the dog. The Main Street in Weaverville is about 3 minutes away with plenty of good restaurants and places for morning coffee. Only about 15 minutes drive into Asheville and an hour each to Pisgah area or south for a waterfall tour. Had a great stay and would come back again!

Secluded Getaway!

From start to finish, this property was an absolute joy to stay at. Mary was so kind and accommodating and even welcomed us with a card for our wedding weekend, thinking of every detail for our stay. The house is so beautiful and timeless. The back porch was perfect for sipping coffee in the morning all while letting our dogs play in the fenced in yard. The kitchen was stocked and even had items included that I’ve never seen at a VRBO that made cooking and eating all the more enjoyable. This place is a 10/10 - one of the best homes we’ve ever stayed at. Thank you for being a part of making our wedding weekend perfect!

About the host

Hosted by Mary

Welcome Friends! My name is Mary. My husband and I love to renovate old homes and bring them back to their former glory. Transforming these spaces and sharing them with guests is one of my favorite things to do. I also work as a Registered Nurse and have supervised the critical care ICU at Mission Hospital for over 20 years.

We moved from Chicago to the Asheville area 30 years ago and raised our three daughters here. While the area has changed dramatically over the years, we would never think of leaving!

My family and I have taken great care to ensure our vacation rental is well-equipped and that no detail has been forgotten. We are excited to routinely welcome back people visiting the area for long getaway weekends, reunions, weddings, and many other little gatherings in between.

Please do not hesitate to ask me for local recommendations and cool things to do, or for anything else that comes up – we truly care and want you to have an excellent experience. I look forward to meeting you!

Why they chose this property

Wonderful location - minutes to everything, overlooks Lake Louise, relaxing and comfortable, very clean, private, a lot of hard work went into renovating this mid-century home.

What makes this property unique
