About the host

Host profile image
We vacationed at this beautiful home several years before purchasing it in November 2023.  The proximity to all the outdoor adventures we love is what brought us here over and over again.  It became our favorite vacation spot!  Now that it is our home, we want to share it with others who have similar interests in the outdoors.  Bring your family or friends, toys, your sense of adventure and make some of your best memories, here at Deer Path.  David and Lynda Ward, Owners

Why they chose this property

Cycling is our favorite outdoor activity and our home is in the middle of more trails, forests, and roads than you can imagine.  Nearby Brevard is called the Land of Waterfalls, so if hiking is on your list, you will literally find hundreds of hiking trails in this area.  The Davidson and French Broad rivers are within minutes of the house for extraordinary fly fishing and kayaking. 

What makes this property unique

While our home is situated in a serene and tranquil location, it is convenient to Brevard and Hendersonville for shopping and all the attractions these towns have to offer.
