Great mountain retreat

We had a great stay here. The cabin itself is super clean and easily accessible (can’t say the same about all the rentals in Montreat). The location is great. You can walk to great hiking trails and it’s just a 5 minute drive to great restaurants in Black Mountain. Absolutely would recommend this cabin.

Wonderful Stay in Montreat

This house was perfect for our family during Thanksgiving.. The owners did a great job with renovations - updated kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms as well as hardwood floors. The living room had plenty of sofa space for us. We also enjoyed exploring the creek behind the house. We hope to return again in the future.

Perfect spot!

This home was so wonderful! The creek just behind the house was a hit for our kids. They also loved the bunk beds. We had everything we needed in just the right amount of space. Montreat is so special to me, and it was so great to share it with my kids. We got snow and got to see bears!

Amazing Stay in Montreat

Location was perfect! We walked everywhere, even in 35/40 degrees. Big open living space. Loved that each room has a bathroom. (One is a hall bathroom) House was clean, kitchen was fully stocked. Owners were super helpful when cable went out. Hope to rent again in summer or fall.
