Beautiful retreat with peace and quiet

This property is beautifully secluded, and the views are amazing! My partner and I were looking for some quiet alone time after Christmas and this delivered so well. Wonderfully decorated, plenty of dishes and blankets and other things were provided and helped us feel so comfortable. And we loved the fireplace! We would love to visit this place again in the future.

Weekend getaway

Beautiful home! Gorgeous views and well maintained hiking trails to explore! All amenities were thought of by the hosts - couldn’t have asked for anything more! Visited friends, did some antique shopping and explored the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway. Sitting out watching the evening skies over the mountains was the relaxation we were looking for. Would highly recommend!

Wonderful place close to the city

We loved staying here. This place was very clean and the location and views have us wanting to return already! We had a lovely stay in Asheville and the outdoor areas as well as living room offer gorgeous views of the mountains. A couple afternoons during our trip rained pretty hard and having this home so close to the city made it very easy to go back to get dried off and ready for dinner back in the city. The convenience of this location was wonderful. This was my fourth trip to Asheville and having stayed at houses farther away, the quick drive into the city from this place was a game changer!

Beautiful, beautiful property

To say that our stay in this gorgeous house was perfect would be an understatement. It’s difficult to envision a cabin that could be more perfectly suited to its surroundings. The house itself was lovely - from the architecture of the building itself, to the beautifully handmade furniture, to the hand crafted floor and table lamps, down to the coffee mugs - everything was thoughtfully presented and very comfortable. And the view defies description. This property was perfectly situated by itself, giving the utmost privacy in the middle of a beautiful forest, yet it was only ten minutes into town, with all that Asheville has to offer. And as much as we enjoyed the city and surrounding areas, it was always a highlight to come back to the house and that porch! We cannot recommend this house highly enough.

Another perfect stay at the cabin

This is our 2nd trip to the mountain cabin, and it will not be our last. Everything is perfectly set for a relaxing, easy and comfortable stay. We absolutely love how private it is, and the views from each side of the house. Our favorite spot is the fantastic back porch overlooking the mountains. Patty is very responsive and helpful with anything we need. We've stayed in several different rentals around Asheville (and in other cities/states), and this is definitely our favorite.

Just amazing!

Absolutely beautiful house and property. A perfect setting that you won't want to leave but if you have to it's only 10 min from dinner and activities in the city. Owners thought of everything and it's cleaner and better maintained that I keep my own home :). The surrounding trails were an unexpected highlight. You will love this place. We certainly hope to come back!

The Perfect Cabin

There are a lot of properties in the Asheville area. The first one that popped up in my VRBO search was Patty and Brison's. I spent several more hours looking at other places to stay during our week-long visit but always came back to this handsome cabin in the woods. And my husband and I were not disappointed in our decision. We loved the cozy yet spacious cabin. From the spacious kitchen to the master bedroom, porch and everything in between -- this is truly a special place. One of our favorite spots was in the corner chair that looked directly out toward the Blue Ridge Mountains. What a view! We could have spent the entire week without leaving this pristine custom built cabin, we loved it that much. But we wanted to check out Asheville and surrounding area. The location is just super for that...maybe 15 minutes or so into Asheville. I could go on and on about Patty and Brison's place but just know if you're a you're wanting a beautiful, peaceful get-away, you'll love this bit of heaven in the wilderness. Enjoy!

Amazing Cabin near Ashvillet

This is the perfect cabin. Every detail has been thought of, the views are amazing, it is far enough away but close enough to town that you have the best of all worlds. These are owners that are proud of what they built and they should be. Highly recommend this cabin.

Little Slice of Heaven

We were pleasantly surprised by the spectacular views and all the nature surrounding the house. The house itself was beautiful, with stunning wood timber work that added a warm and rustic charm. The host was always available and very accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The photos simply don't capture the full beauty and warmth of this home. Highly recommended – we know we'll be back!

What a View!

We spent 4 nights at Patty and Brison’s beautiful home. The view, the private location, and style of the home did not disappoint. Weather was warm and sunny when we arrived. We gravitated to the porch! The view was enhanced by the VERY comfy swivel chairs. The lighting throughout the home was gorgeous and we enjoyed the antique pieces and sectional sofa immensely. It’s clear a lot of thought went into the creative planning of Couples Retreat. The rooms were larger than pictured with high ceilings throughout. On Sunday, it was cold and rainy, so we built a fire and stayed in all morning. Twice we dined out. Once to Twisted Laurel and once to Limones. Both restaurants had good service and delicious food. Patty was very responsive via text or email and we look forward to future stays.

Perfect free standing cabin for a couple

The cabin is beautifully designed and furnished with open concept kitchen and great room, porch deck with grill and front porch with wood stove, all on the main level and master bedroom and bath below. It feels like home. The hiking trails and views on the property are beautiful. This is the best place we have found in the 10 years we’ve been vacationing in Asheville. Don’t miss their Sunset Deck trail.

About the host

Hosted by Patty Robertson

Host profile image
Mountain Home was custom built by the owners using wood from the mature southern hardwood forest on our property. Hiking trails made and maintained by owners with 3 ponds and stone 'resting benches' every so often. Hiking trail map provided. New in 2016 is a covered "Sunset Deck" with spectacular views and sunsets-a short hike from the cabin.

What makes this property unique

New! 2016 Brison built a covered sunset deck on the top of the mountain a short hike from the cabin. Enjoy stunning views and sunsets from the sunset deck or enjoy a nice hike in the mature southern hardwood forest and then relax on either porch of the cabin while watching the sunset. Restaurants are 10 minutes away in downtown Asheville or visit the Biltmore House or Grove Park Inn. The Blue Ridge Parkway is just 2 miles away. Incredible views throughout the house for leaf watchers and wildlife enthusiasts.
