Cozy

The rental was clean and well stocked with amenities- on the other hand, the nest thermostat was a pain to figure out and the tv needs some cable channels(not HBO, etc but basics like TNT , USA, etc.

May in Brevard

A great location for all things in Brevard, NC. Home was spotless and is close to all things in Brevard. Walking distance (about a mile to downtown Brevard) and were able to attend the annual White Squirel Festival. Highly recommend this rental.

Comfortable

Everything in the house was comfortable and easy to find. Everything we needed was available. We especially appreciated the water filter in the fridge. The location was convenient to the college campus and downtown. We also found it walkable to some restaurants. We enjoyed our time there & would return.

Great Little House

My family of 4 had a great stay at this property. The house is small, but completely renovated and very clean. We enjoyed exploring the Pisgah National Forest and other area close to Brevard. The location isn't really walkable to much downtown, but short drive to everything.

Sisters’ Getaway

We loved this house and hope to return again soon. It was perfect for our sisters’ getaway. The house was immaculate and included everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Furnished and decorated nicely. Only suggestion would be to have a mirror in the small bedroom.

Excellent stay in the Brevard / Pisgah area

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights. The house is very cute and has a charming vibe to it. It was very clean when we arrived. The proximity to downtown Brevard and Pisgah National Forest is ideal. We are bookmarking this spot for another visit. 5/5 stars

Charming Brevard Home

Super nice little place perfect for a get away weekend with a girlfriend. Great location, close to hiking and to the town of Brevard. Bed in master was comfortable, but the twin bed was pretty firm. Kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and grill. We would have loved to have had a dishwasher, but for the two of us, we managed fine. The owners were responsive and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Spotless rental in a good location. Only thing that makes it better is a place to store bikes without taking them in the house.

About the host

Hosted by Travis Chamberlain

I am from Fishers, Indiana, and Brevard is my second home. I love mountain biking and hiking in Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Forest and fly fishing in the local rivers and streams. I also love visiting all of the local breweries and restaurants.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! I bought this property for three primary reasons: 1) great location, walkable to the Lumberyard District and downtown, 2) super close to the Brevard City Bike Path, 3) perfect set up for two couples or a family of four. Being able to ride the the trailheads in Pisgah National Forest or Bracken Preserve is amazing, too! I renovated this property in 2022 and made into a place I can call my second home.

What makes this property unique

- Great location in downtown Brevard.
- Just steps from the Brevard City Bike Path.
- Walk or bike to restaurants and shopping.
- Short drive to Dupont State Forest.
- Close to Asheville and the Biltmore Estate.
- Indoor bike storage with two bike stands provided with the property.
