The Overlook is one of the most fantastic rentals we have visited. The kitchen was well stocked with the equipment needed to cook. The views are breathtaking. The hot tub was well maintained. Check-in and check-out were a breeze and communication from the hose was spectacular. The house was the CLEANEST house I’ve rented so deep gratitude to the housekeeping team. Also a special thanks to the customer service folks. After we left we realized we had left behind a piece of jewelry and the Greybeard team supported us in quickly returning to retrieve it. Lots of appreciation for the responsiveness and willingness to help us. We deeply recommend the rental and would return again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was as advertised with amazing views and terrific accommodations. The location was an easy drive to the Biltmore and Black Mountain is close and has really good food options. The house was very comfortable and clean and the host was very responsive with all of our questions. Thx so much!

Private with amazing views on 2 levels.

We thoroughly enjoyed this property! We ended up not cooking but the kitchen was well supplied. Overlook is an accurate name for this house as the entirety of Black Mountain can be seen from the deck.

The home has an amazing view, with a comfortable living room including a great gas fireplace, plenty of comfortable seating, a great deck and a hot tub. The location is amazing and the entire house is very clean. The bedrooms are more comparable to that of a three star hotel. There is not central Air. As a frequent renter, I would want to know ahead of time that the bedrooms/bathrooms are not Luxury. That being said, we had a fabulous time and loved all of the common areas.

View and deck were wonderful! Best sunset views! The living area is nice for a group but the lighting is terrible. Very dark and hard to play games at the table. There are two fans that can accommodate a light package. This would be helpful. The house has a stale smoke smell when you enter, especially the downstairs room. Kitchen is well equipped, but small. Hot tub was perfect and had a great view. We never located beach towels for the hot tub. The house is at the top of the mountain and still very close to town. We used the grill, which was nice. We found it very hard to regulate the temp in the house. There were times we needed AC and times we needed heat. We were never able to get cool air in the main floor bedroom. Overall the house is what we needed and we enjoyed it.

Sharon, thank you so much for your thoughtful review of The Overlook. We’re delighted to hear the home worked well for your group and that you all especially enjoyed the deck, hot tub, and those incredible sunset views! We also appreciate you bringing these items to our attention. Lighting in the living area is important, especially for gathering and playing games, so we’ll certainly relay your suggestion to the homeowner for consideration. We’ll also have our maintenance team address the odor concern right away. While the home does not have central air, it is equipped with 5 mini-split units (one in each bedroom and one in the living room) to help maintain a comfortable temperature year-round. We’ll be sure to take a closer look at those units to ensure everything is functioning as it should. Regarding the beach towels, we’re sorry they were difficult to locate and will make sure their placement in the downstairs closet bathroom is clearer for future stays. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us continue to improve and provide even more amazing stays for our guests. We’re glad you still had an enjoyable stay overall, and we’d love to host you again in the future for a seamless stay from start to finish!
