About this house rental
Burnt Ridge Retreat......your escape to the splendor of the Blue Ridge Mountains! Welcome to the peace & tranquility that comes from "elevation", calming and majestic views of over 50 miles, and the breathtaking awe of a true luxury vacation home; and just 10 minutes from downtown Black Mountain.
Burnt Ridge Retreat is located in the exclusive, upscale and private mountain community, High Rock Acres, which is conveniently perched on its own mountainside, just outside of Black Mountain.
Come soak in all the Burnt Ridge Retreat has to offer its guests, including a recently built and newly updated home, modern amenities, fire-pit, close proximity to literally everything, and more. Sit on your back porch, relax and sip coffee as you take in the astounding views, along with being able to watch wildlife from your private deck and outdoor areas, while listening to the running creek down below.
Come create your own memorable Asheville mountain experience!
The home affords year round access, and is great for groups of any and all ages. The home is situated just outside of downtown Black Mountain, NC, affording privacy for everyone to relax & enjoy the feel of the WNC mountains. High Rock Acres is a private, exclusive community, whose residents are friendly and welcoming to guests, (if you even see them, since High Rock Acres has private, densely wooded lots that afford amazing privacy).
Get ready to be “wowed” by the never-ending views from this contemporary mountain style retreat. With soaring vistas, high ceilings, vaulted rooms, and cozy spaces, you will immediately feel at home at Burnt Ridge Retreat. (That is of course if you can tear yourself away from the wrap-a-round decks & soaking in the spectacle of the Blue Ridge Mountains, & actually venture inside!) The recently constructed (in 2008), and only just renovated/updated estate home affords a stunning great room, massive Chef's grade kitchen, a lower level Great Rm, spacious bedroom/baths, and MORE; with plenty of space to unwind and gather with your group. But, if you need some “alone time”, there is plenty of space inside and out to find your own serenity. There are 4 outside porches, decks, and patios, and the private fire-pit for ultimate outdoor relaxation.
Burnt Ridge Retreat has so much to offer guests; from hiking and walking trails, streams, and much more. (You can hike all the way down to the river if feeling adventurous!) While at Burnt Ridge, everyone enjoys all that the home has to offer; from the TV & Game Rm, Great Rm fireplace, and of course the spectacular decks, where you can pull up a chair and take in the "sound of silence", observe the night as it fills with stars, and watch the fire flies come out to play in your backyard.
Take a seat and enjoy the sound of the babbling creek, along with the rest of nature, and all within the serenity in your own private paradise at the top of the world.

Wonderful property! Beautiful views and spaces for spending time with family.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
Our stay was peaceful at this house. We were 10 friends and we spent most time away from home, but house was very comfortable, spacious and very clean. Night sky view of stars was amazing from the deck. Enough bathrooms, comfortable beds and bedding were provided. Yonder team was just a phone call away. Friendly support staff. One needs a 4 wheel drive to be at this property though, rough terrain and unpaved roads to reach at the house. yet House itself was very comfortable. Host has already mentioned about 4 wheel drive need so it was easy for us to manage. Grocery store Ingles is just 10 minutes away. Nice location. Much better houses in Black Mountain area then Asheville vicinity.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
Do not hesitate to book this property! The home is warm and welcoming, and it is stocked with everything a guest needs to accommodate a big family, cook meals, etc. There is even a gas fireplace for those chilly days, making the home even more cozy. The views from this property are absolutely gorgeous! The property management was friendly and responded promptly to questions. Recommendation: If you are nervous driving on mountain roads, plan to arrive at the property during daylight, and remember to take the driveway to the right when you arrive. If you take the drive to the right, you will end up right in front of the front door of the property. :) Thanks for a wonderful stay!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
The facilities were amazing. BUT The Roads and driveway were steep and needed to be mentioned in the listing. Construction was halted, but wet dirt roads are hazardous to ALL cars. Several places it should be listed(NO CARS) but only saw it in the house book instructions. And very sneaky... VRBO wouldn't even give the exact address til 24hours before check in. Not cool. Kinda felt like they didn't want us to get directions til the last minute. Trying to get 2 seniors up the driveway was horrible. There were a flight of stairs to the car parking lot. Than led down to the front door of the house. More than 15 steep steps. Packing the car was exhausting. Walking up 4 bags up the 15 stairs to the car parking area should be mentioned several places.
