Charming home.

The house is very charming and a real home. Everything needed is there- in the kitchen, bedrooms etc; there’s even a wide variety of board games. It’s a treat to enjoy the tranquility and the view outside, plus the delightful rocking chairs. The hosts are very gracious, easy to talk to and we are grateful for a wonderful stay. We hope we can visit again!

Our stay was the best vacation we have had in a long time! Very dog friendly! Every bedroom was comfortable and beautiful. The home is secluded but also we felt safe as there are homes nearby. We mostly enjoyed the porch as we rocked away while reading and looking at the mountain. We cooked a few times and went out to eat at The Local Joint. It was delicious! We rook our dog up the Bearwallow Mtn trail and had a picnic at the top. Our hosts were veey accomodating and available. We hope to return next year.

JUST PERFECT

What a great home to get away from it all, yet remain close to everything you need. The home was quiet, clean, roomy, and well stocked. Asheville, Biltmore House, Hendersonville, Chimney Rock, and Lake Lure we’re short excursions from the location. The Owners were great to communicate with and quick to reply to our questions. This was our first VRBO rental and because of this experience, we will definitely be using the service in the future. GO NOLES!

Nice getaway

The home was cozy and as one other guest said, it is like staying at grandma's house. We specifically came for views of the mountain, but due to the time of season we came, our views were obstructed by the trees. Partly my fault for not realizing that, but would like to have seen "seasonal views," in the description. Loved, loved the creek beside it and the sound of that water. If we had had views, it would have been spectacular.

Wonderful house, wonderful location, WONDERFUL hosts!!

Wonderful house, wonderful location, wonderful hosts! I just concluded a weeklong stay at Motts Mountain Laurel And I couldn’t be more pleased. In these days of COVID-19, the cleanliness and freshness of the house was very much appreciated. But most important to me was how homey and warm and comfortable the house is. The setting and the view are beautiful… Gorgeous Mountain View, great wildlife (many roaming wild turkeys, many bunny rabbits, hummingbirds at the deck, and one bear). Gerton is a really good “hub” for everything I go to western NC for! Thank you Todd and Hillary!

Nice cabin

Rustic appeal and everything you needed at great price. We have stayed in this area before and it was nice to stay closer to Asheville so we could make some excursions there in about 30 min. Owners were easy to work with. Only con was website stated it slept 10, but really only 8. There was no sleeper sofa and the 2 queen beds seemed like full sized with the room they were in felt like the floor was caving in. So it felt like you were rolling to to the middle of the room while you were sleeping.

Thank you Earl! We have a crew up there checking out and repairing the issue. We are going to completely redo the back bedroom flooring and have the joists reinforced. The house will be out of commission for a month but we are SO grateful you brought this to our attention! We enjoyed having your family as our guests!!

Great quiet getaway in a convenient mountain location!

We enjoyed our stay at Mott's Mountain Laurel. It was well equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen had plenty of cooking utensils, and there was plenty of space for our group. It was charming and reminded me of staying at someone's grandmother's house. There were family pictures on the wall and plenty of seating area.

A Beautiful Retreat

What a beautiful weekend we had! This mountain retreat was just what our family needed to reconnect, with plenty of space for napping, and mealtimes and games around the table. This is truly an old family home: warm, comfortable, inviting, and the view from the porch is impossible to capture with a camera! The hostess was available and easy to communicate with—we wanted to add our photos to her picture wall! We never took advantage of nearby restaurants or shops—we just stayed “home” and enjoyed the peace and natural setting, although the young adults did have fun mining for gems. We loved every minute of our stay here, and really enjoyed our surprise “welcome” gift! Thank you, Hillary, for sharing this treasure with us! It’s at the top of our “favorites” list!

Lovely house

Our family stayed 4 nights and we loved it. Very clean, great location, comfortable, and we felt that the Mott’s family not only shared their home but also their memories. We have never stayed in a VRBO that was so well equipped, they thought about every single detail, the house had pet supplies, including pet food, treats, toys, plenty of cleaning supplies, toilet paper, paper towel, towels, ziplock bags, all kitchen utensils that you could think of. We were welcomed with a s’mores kit, a soap/toothpaste/toothbrush/shampoo/conditioner/razor and shaving cream basket, and tasty wine.

Fabulous mountain holiday retreat

The property was very well maintained, super cozy and if you like to cook has all the supplies you need. The area is stunning. The host was communicative as soon as the property was booked and sent helpful information ahead of time for us to help plan the stay and then to ensure we made it there safely, as well as a generous welcome gift! The mini van struggled to make it up the driveway so just be careful. The only item missing from the online pictures was the telescope, sadly was not there; but the big green egg was an amazing touch for our turkey! Super comfy beds which honestly is one of the things that sold me in the reviews, as so many rentals have great amenities with terrible mattresses. Not the case here, you will sleep great!! We also loved the history displayed and the antique items throughout. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend.

A real charm and perfectly comfy

We stayed 4 nights. Everything was perfect! Covered porch with rocking chairs, stone fireplace, kitchen is more than fully equipped. Rustic location in the trees, a short walk to a path along the creek. This was an excellent choice for our family time.

Great house, very clean and organized with everything one could need. Well stocked. Good communication with owners. Lovely area with lots of nature and enjoyed chasing fireflies and making bonfires. Internet was spotty. We mostly used our att hot spot and Verizon lte both worked fine in the house & area. Also we appreciated the wine and s’mores kit upon arrival! Nice touch! :) would def stay again! Thx u!

Tranquil and peaceful location

This beautiful property has satellite t.v. and WiFi but we barely used them. We enjoyed the front porch with a beautiful Mountain View. There’s a wonderful mountain stream running along side the house where the kids explored and played. It’s a great location that’s close to the Biltmore estate as well as Chimney Rock State park. We really enjoyed the house, the area, and the peace. We spent evenings around the fire pit making hotdogs and s’mores. The host provides tons of games for game night. We honestly didn’t want to leave.
