About this property

Spectacular Mountain Views, Near Asheville, Big Decks, Hot Tub, WiFi

Do you want to relax & enjoy one of the best long-range views in western North Carolina? Yes, those photos are taken from the house!

Do you want to be in the woods and in a safe, private wooded setting but still be close to town? The Asheville area has a lot to offer, but you might not want to leave the house.

The home is an up-to-date, very well-kept, very well-equipped, comfortable, spacious, two-story home in a private mountain community just 13 miles/20 minutes from all of Asheville's charm & attractions.
It's easily accessible year round, but still secluded. The elevation of the house is 3,450 feet and affords one of the area's most spectacular long range, year round views.

Enjoy the view from the 1,000 square foot, multi-level, wraparound deck, the hot tub, or from inside the home. Set on three quiet, wooded acres of mountain laurel, rhododendron, oak-leaf hydrangea, blackberries & many other native species.

The house is full of artwork and craft from local and regional artists and from the owners' world travels. There are dozens of pamphlets and books describing the many things to do nearby including The Biltmore Estate, The Blue Ridge Parkway, some of the best and most famous hiking trails in the world, and all the wonderful food, art, and music Asheville has to offer!

The deck is huge and that's where the views are. There's a hot tub, a grill, lounge chairs, Adirondack chairs, and a dining table and chairs. You may never want to leave the deck. It's perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or al fresco dining.

Asheville has excellent food of every type, many live music venues, art museums and galleries, antiquing, and every type of shopping. Local craft, art and music are easily accessible. Asheville isn't too big or too small. It's just right!

The driveway to the house is a little steep in two spots, at the entrance which is paved, and about halfway up the driveway. It's a safe, well-maintained gravel driveway. Every type of vehicle is able to get up the driveway easily. A four-wheel drive vehicle is not required except during heavy snow or ice storms. Check the reviews and you'll read that it's not an issue. If you have questions please contact me.

Unfortunately the house is not set up for younger children. It's not unsafe by any standard, it’s just suitable for adults.

The best thing about this place....QUIET.I mean,quiet,no noise but an occasional airplane or car.Quiet.So relaxingly quiet.

What a lovely place

This was our third visit to this beautiful home and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for lovely surroundings and a peaceful setting. David is a very gracious host and the minor issues we had with the tv and smoke alarm batteries were remedied quickly. Twenty minutes to downtown Asheville gives you the best of all possible worlds. Treat yourself to this wonderful house.

Perfect and more

Our stay was incredible - the Mountain views did not disappoint! Bed and sheets were by far the most comfortable of any rental I’ve stayed in. The well equipped kitchen allowed us to cook many family meals together. It is evident this is truly someone’s home you are being invited into and it had a pleasant warmth to it. Place was spotless clean and property was silent other than the sounds of nature. There are such a plethora of windows in the main areas and bedrooms it felt like staying in an atrium someone’s (which we loved). Thank you for a lovely vacation - we look forward to staying again!

Fall getaway

This place is special!! Was very impressed with house location and view was especially spectacular during peak fall color in Asheville area. House is comfortable and immediately felt like home. It is also exceptionally well stocked and has everything you need for cooking. David was very responsive and quick to respond to all inquiries. Would highly recommend house and anticipate returning in near future.

“Best of both worlds”

Beautiful home tucked in the woods with beautiful Mountain View’s from the back deck. Tricky turn up driveway but owner’s tips /tricks in making the turn were helpful. Everything you could need was at the house except a few groceries, that we picked up nearby. Almost everything we wanted to do was within a 20 minute drive. Tuns of breweries, hiking, art district, The Biltmore Estate, Black Mnt, & more! We were hoping to see a bear, but we did not. Would definitely recommend this property, especially if you want to be close enough to all Asheville has to offer but far enough away that you feel secluded. “Best of both worlds “.

Comfortable Cabin in the Mountains

We loved our stay! The cabin was clean, homey, & comfortable. We enjoyed the isolation and quiet surroundings of being in the woods. We were only 20 - 25 mins. away from all of the places we wished to go in the Fairview and Asheville areas. We would stay there again and highly recommend this rental.

Great Mountain Home Experience

We loved our stay at the mountain home of co-hosts David and Ken. The location is amazing! Beautiful mountain views in a secluded location but only 10 minutes down the mountain to grocery stores, restaurants, and gas stations. The proximity to downtown Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway was a major plus. In Fairview, we recommend dining at The Local Joint (breakfast/lunch), Smokey and the Pig, and Whistle Hop Brewery (they have food trucks daily). For adventures, we recommend the Skinny Dip Falls and Linville Falls hikes. If you go to Chimney Rock, don't miss out on walking the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge! We also recommend taking a guided bus tour of Asheville at the beginning of your stay to get the "lay of the land". We did the Lazoom "Hey Asheville" tour and it was hilarious.

Third Visit!

We LOVE this place. It is our third, but definately not our last, time renting from David. The views are absolutely gorgeous and deck is perfect for hanging out. The house is always spotless and full of nice amenities. Feels very isolated, but is close to anything you might want to do in the area. Highly recommended.

Lovely Mountain Retreat

We met my Cousins for a long weekend in the mountains near Asheville, NC. This rental is lovingly cared for and was lovely and comfortable. We took advantage of the fireplace, stocked with wood, the lovely views from the spacious deck, and the robes and the hot tub on the deck. Exceptionally attractive and well stocked with everything. We would strongly recommend this place to anyone! Wed also love to go back.

Perfectly Peaceful Retreat

We came to the Asheville area for the 1st time to hike the Blue Ridge Mountains and wanted a quiet retreat with beautiful views of the mountain range. David's property is the perfect spot for a family or couple getaway. The deck, hot tub and interior of the home were just as advertised, and even better than we expected The kitchen had everything you need, and the master bath overhead shower was the perfect end to a long day of hiking. Thank you David for sharing your beautiful home.

The owner is super accommodating and has truly thought of most everything. The house is very well stocked with anything you’ll need. We saw bears almost every day. That was an awesome experience!!

About the host

Hosted by David

Host profile image
I'm recently retired after working 17 years at Emory University in Atlanta in the Communications and Marketing division.
I was born and raised in Jacksonville Florida, but I've lived in several places in the US and a few places overseas.
I currently split time between the Asheville area and Atlanta. My family has been coming to the NC mountains for almost 60 years and I have family in the Asheville area.
I'm a potter and printmaker.

Why they chose this property

I bought this house because the views are spectacular, the area is beautiful, and it's nestled in the woods. It's very private, but it's also close to Asheville which has always been a fun, interesting and creative town. There are some many outdoor and indoor activities in the area.

What makes this property unique

This is a magical, private, rejuvenating place. It's amazing how absolutely quiet it is. It's beautiful and comfortable in all seasons.
It's our vacation home, too so it feel like a home, not a rental.
We've been renting the house for over 16 years and some of our guests have been coming back every year for over 10 years, which should tell you something about the place.
It's amazing to be in a place with fast WiFi, hundreds of TV channels, but also feel like you're in a private, quiet wooded environment.
