Beautiful house, well stocked and clean. Would stay there again while visiting Asheville.
10.0 / 10.0
This adorable mountain home with back deck and front porch and every ammenity was perfect for our family. The owners were amazing and the home, especially kitchen had every detail thought of like you were in your own home. It was easy to drive back and forth to Ashville while staying up on a mountain and feeling like you were really away. Lots of hiking and beautiful fall folliage. Home was exactly as shown in photos. Our minivan made it up the mountain. Altough make sure you go up the left side and not the right if you don't have an SUV.

Spent the weekend at this lovely home on a girlfriend’s trip. The place is well maintained and clean with nice views of the woods from the back deck.
Would definitely recommend.

The property was very comfortable, modern, and the kitchen extremely well stocked. The home had all the comfort amenities making it feel like our home away from home. The location is very private, but yet the location to Asheville was perfect. I'd highly recommend this property to anyone staying in the Asheville area.

We loved our stay the Owl’s Nest! The house was exactly as pictured and described- very clean, great amenities and well stocked. Our kids loved the DVD collection and sand box… very family friendly home! We arrived during daylight and loved the country drive to the mountain and had fun driving up the gravel road to the house. The views were better than expected and we enjoyed grilling out on the deck. We brought our dog who loved sniffing around and we met the owner who lives next door- very friendly and nice guy. Plus, it was just a short drive into Asheville. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

House was very clean which is the most important to me, personally.
Views were great.
Lots of little "extras" that made it a little more perfect.

Our family was very pleased with the clean cozy house. The owners had provided lots of little extras and made it easy to just settle in. We would definitely stay here again!

We were in town for a wedding nearby and stayed 2 nights. The ONLY negative was arriving late on a very dark night and trying to get up the steep gravel hill. (We did fine the other 2 trips up once we knew where we were going.) The house is beautiful, inside and out. The kitchen is big and stocked with anything you might need. The open living area was comfy and cozy, the bedrooms are spacious, the bathrooms are nice and the back deck is amazing. My boys loved the swing, sandbox and yard. Plus the place was spotless. I appreciated all the small, thoughtful touches and we enjoyed every minute of our stay.

This home is perfect!! It's so clean and the owners literally thought of everything. Love that it's one story and the surroundings were absolutely gorgeous. REALLY appreciated the cleanliness. I've stayed in some that were NOT as they advertised but this one checked all the boxes!

We could not have asked for a better place to stay! No detail was missed. Everything we needed and more was there for us. My family and I cannot stress how comfortable the mattresses were, not to mention how clean the entire place was upon arrival. Every step from start to finish was thought out and very easy to follow. Highly highly highly recommend this place to anyone.

Absolutely a dream week. Well appointed kitchen stocked with everything you would need. Light and bright decor is well designed, open and comfortable. Nice deck in the back with grill invites having a relaxed evening meal at tree top level. This place is very clean with nice linens in bed and bath. The location is remote and the road ruggedly vertical making this place a perfect retreat.

Wow I was impressed just by the pictures but it’s even worth more in person!! We are so thankful for such a wonderful homey place to stay that accommodated all your needs and it’s nestled in a beautiful mountain.
You are just a little drive away from Asheville which was amazing and we visited Gatlinburg Tennessee only 1 1/2 hours away so it’s a great day trip away.
We also visited Greenville SC and that was also 1 1/2 hours away which made another great day trip and the best part is you go back to such a beautiful home in the mountains which is so relaxing.
My daughter who is almost 9 loves every second and she felt right at home which was so important to me.
I can’t wait to come back with my husband and son because we loved staying in this beautiful house.
The owners are amazing and I can’t thank them enough for having such a wonderful place for us to stay!!
So grateful!!

After a long drive and the uphill* arrival, we were ready to unwind. And we could not have discovered a better place!
Now, where to begin? It's pretty on the outside, but the real magic is inside. Everything has been chosen for your comfort and enjoyment, from the high quality kitchen equipment (chefs and foodies take note!) to the luxurious bedding and comfy new furniture. Not to mention the incredible surroundings and the hummingbirds!
We kept saying, "this is better than home!", for our entire stay. Lea has figured out everything we needed, before we arrived. Corkscrews- check. NICE wine glasses- check.
Toothpicks?- yep, even toothpicks. After a career in the hospitality business, Lea really knows what people away from home need to feel comfy and cozy. We got great tips on local restaurants and brewpubs, antique shopping, the best grocery stores, everything we needed.
Such a beautiful, quiet location- and so dark at night the stars are amazing to see. We had a fantastic time and will definitely book again.
* If you're not a confident driver or have never driven a gravel road, ask for a little advice in advance- it makes all the difference!
