We had a great time for a quick family getaway. The house is located in a great peaceful location with quick access to the highway to get around and explore nature.
Gerard was an amazing host and was extremely responsive and accommodating. The cabin is cozy and quiet and has a great view. My daughter and I had a great time enjoying some quality time together and visiting our family in Asheville.
This house was absolutely wonderful. The location is perfect in the mountains. We had everything we needed/wanted in the perfect getaway. Jerry is a great host also.
We will certainly rent this home again next time we are visiting Asheville.

Cycling Promised Land
Been visiting the area for over 20 years, the cycling is World Class. It's a great cabin in an excellent location if you like riding your bike, and Gerard is awesome.
If you want to place that's off the beaten path, this is the place for you. Nestled deep in the hollow of big Laurel Creek, with a wonderful screened porch overlooking the valley, relaxation and serenity come naturally. The house was well appointed and the kitchen accessorized with everything we needed.

Mother Daughter Adventure!
This cabin was perfect for us! We both work hard and needed a break and this really fit the bill. Quiet and fairly secluded enough to enjoy nature, but close enough to civilization to go out and enjoy shopping and sightseeing. We chose this location specifically because it’s near Sandy Bottom Trail Rides, one of my favorite things to do when I’m in the area. We enjoyed a 2 hour ride in the mountains and then came back to a welcoming and comfortable place to relax. We can’t wait for our next vacation!!
