8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2025
The cabin was lovely - beautiful design and plenty of room for our family of four. We had fun with the ping pong table and enjoyed the sauna too. Convenient to Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. While there's privacy at the house itself, there's definitely more of a 'neighborhood' feel as you drive up to the house than we expected, with a few pretty run-down homes along the way. More road noise than expected as well- from the hilltop, you can hear the highway nearby, as well as I-40 traffic. Decor is comfortable but I'm not a fan of animal heads on walls and didn't notice that in one of the photos, so didn't love that when I arrived. Also there were several religious references in the decor/books left out- that might be a draw for some, but for us it felt heavy-handed. I also didn't realize that the home was being handled by a management company - Vacasa- so we ended up having to pay fees to VRBO and to Vacasa. I'm fairly certain it would be cheaper to book directly through Vacasa (and it looks like the nightly rate is lower on that site too), so would suggest checking that site first before booking here. The price we ended up paying was too high, in my opinion.

This home was awesome! My family had a wonderful short stay, and wished we could have stayed there longer. It was very close to Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Cabin was cozy and fairly secluded in the woods, with lots of areas to sit together indoors and outdoors too. We would highly recommend staying at Elkhorn cabin if you visit Asheville!

We loved the rustic feel of this cabin. We loved how close to downtown Asheville the home is yet located in the mountains.

Reviewer Comments:
The cabin was cozy and well-maintained. We loved the location on top of a small mountain, as it was quiet and serene. The narrow, steep roads made it a little challenging to find the cabin the first time. The cabin is a great base camp for activities in the area. The Mountains to Sea trail is very close by and made for a nice day hike. Downtown Asheville was a quick 10 minute drive away. The Biltmore was also only about 10 minutes away. We would definitely stay again.
