Why the Owner Chose Black Mountain
Our family has been vacationing in NC for over 20 years. We decided to build in Black Mouain because we fell in love with the quaint town. We wanted to be within 30 minutes of Asheville with an airport, university, malls, hospital and all conveniences of city life; but also wanted to the quaintness of a small town and to be surrounded by nature.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
We have manage 3 of the cabins with a large pond, hiking trails and a long windy creek that runs through the property. We have a grassy area that children can play, a hammock, a bonfire pit, game of horseshoes, a gameroom with air hockey and fooseball, flat screen televisions, DVD players, fireplaces in cabins, internet, free long distance and much more. Outdoor activities in the area are endless, including: canoeing, fly fishing, white water rafting, horseback riding, hiking, rock climbing... And there are many daily excursions to choose from, such as Biltmore Estate, Dollywood, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Caverns, Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherokee Casino, Tweetsie Railroad, Sliding Rock and much much more.

Our two familys (5+4) had a wonderful time. The cabin has all of the modern amenities, and the sleeping accommodations are very comfortable. The property is also really nice, especially the outdoor firepit. There are a couple of nice trails on the property - perfect for younger kids because they're not very long. If you are looking for longer/more aggressive hiking, do some research to find some local trails.
Owner response:We enjoy hearing that our guests had a wonderful time and enjoyed the trails on the property. If you are looking for longer trials, we recommend Chimney Rock or Montreat trails, both 20 minutes from our property as well as many others in the area.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
Christmas Vacation

Incredible Place! The pictures and description don't describe how wonderful it really is. We spent a relaxing 5 days with our kids and dog and loved every minute of it. It has all the comforts of home in an incredible location. The owners went out of their way to make it a special place. The home is immaculate, and they even had a Christmas Tree all decorated for us to enjoy Christmas. The book they have at the house gives you wonderful options of things to see and places to eat. We went expecting to spend most of our time in Asheville, but found the town of Black Mountain had everything we were looking for--great hikes, quaint shops and incredible restaurants. The dog loved the trails and the hikes and we had a time to relax, escape the chaos of daily life and enjoy our family. We will recommend this place to others and will be back once my husband returns from yet another deployment. This is a place you dont want to miss!
Owner response:Happy New Year! We are glad your family enjoyed the Christmas Holidays in our cabin. We wish him a safe deployment and look forward to having you back.

We wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle and this home on black mountain was the perfect choice gor our family and even our family dog. The home is full of every amenity that you might need to a full kitchen, plush towels, extra blankets, plenty of games and videos for your entertainment pleasure. You can end your evening grilling out on the large deck with rocking chairs, picnic table and a long leisurely soak in the hot tub enjoying the beautiful surroundings. Even though, you are away from big city, the property is very close to Asheville and many activities to enjoy. We highly recommend this home without reservations! Our family can't wait to return!!
Owner response:Thank you, we look forward to hosting your family again!

Amazing Time

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a getaway weekend and while I was excited about the place from all of the pictures, somehow they still don't do the place justice - it is more beautiful in person! The owners made every last consideration from the furniture to the decorations and appliances. It is high luxury in the mountains! The trails on the property were well marked and beautiful too. We enjoyed taking our two dogs on hikes and starting and finishing our days in the hot tub. We'll be back again!
Owner response:Yes, we added more trails around the creek this year and it has been a big hit! Thanks for your feedback.

We absolutely loved our stay at Highrock Preserve and were all impressed with how well the cabin was appointed. The property overall was perfect for our group (4 adults and 3 kids). The hiking trails were great for the kids and well maintained. The adults really liked the deck which allowed us to visit while still keeping an eye on the kids as they played around the pond. We're already planning our return trip.
Owner response:We added extra trails around the creek this year and it has been a huge hit. We look forward to hosting you again in the future.

Review Submitted: 11/14/11
This was our second year holding our church ladies retreat at Highrock Preserve and it was better than the first. The setting is beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed walking the trails on the property and jumping over the creek. It is close enough to take a day trip for shopping in Black Mountain, or heading to Chimney Rock and dinner at Lake Lure. We were excited to get to see a black bear this year as we were heading down to the pond for a fire. We stayed in and played games and laughed ourselves silly. We plan to go back again next year!
Owner response:Glad your church ladies had fun. We love to host repeat renters in our cabins. Look forward to seeing you again next year!

My family very much enjoyed staying at this lovely home! The house was comfortable in every way and had everything we needed to get started on a relaxing mountain vacation. The home included all the ammenities, comfortable furnishings and personal touches that made us feel right at home! It felt so good to see our children enjoy the grounds, including the pond, trails and grassy areas. We could relax and watch them from the beautiful front porch or go and play with them! We have wonderful memories of bonfires and smore making, trail walking and rocking on the porch. Highly recommed to anyone for a peaceful getaway!
Owner response:Glad you enjoyed yourselves!

My family stayed at this beautiful cabin over Easter weekend. It is a beautiful spot, and the cabin was impeccable. The owners have done a fabulous job with a well designed, beautifully appointed cabin and a lovely private enclave. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips. We also appreciated the information on local attractions and restaurants. We thank them for sharing it with us.
Owner response:Thank you Nancy. We love that such a small town has so many good restaurants to eat at!

The pictures of the property accurately reflected what this property looks like. The owners were extremely helpful assisting with any of our needs. We rent a lot of cabins because we travel with our two dogs and like the yard for them to run around. This cabin is by far one of the best. It was so clean that you could not tell they allow pets. It was a nature beauty and so close to town.
Owner response:We appreciate your feedback.
