Mountain Christmas
This is our second year staying in Summer Haven for Christmas. It is in a perfect location near DuPont and Caesars Head for hiking and mountain biking. It's a quick drive to Brevard and Hendersonville. Melinda was very responsive and helpful when we needed her. The house is very cozy and in a quiet location next to an charming outdoor church. The kitchen is fully equipt and there are lots of cozy towels and blanket and throws to snuggle up with. There was even towels for our dog!! What a lovely time. Thanks again.

Never have to leave Cedar Mtn
Great location for hiking and mountain biking, Cedar Mountain NC now has pretty much everything you need to never have to go into the big city, “Brevard” 😁 very private location, I’ve travelled the area by car, bike, and foot for 13+ years and never knew this street existed.

Cedar Mountain
The house was perfect! We had everything we needed for us and our dog. Plenty of outdoor activities just around the corner and great food at the cafe down the road. We would definitely stay here again. The host was very quick to respond and reached out with additional information.

Wonderful Getaway Vacation
We enjoyed staying in this beautiful home! It felt like we were in a treehouse looking out every window at the beautiful fall foliage! We spent a lot of time on the 3 sided deck and loved the rocking chairs! Kitchen is very well stocked with appliances and utensils. Owner provided a very informative notebook of the area.

About the host

Hosted by Melinda

Host profile image
We love adventure and beautiful places. We have been passionate kayakers, mountain bikers, cyclists, fly fishermen and explorers of new places for most of our lives.

Why they chose this property

This location has a wonderful long history, a beautiful historic outdoor chapel is our closest neighbor and there are many wild places to explore within just a short drive. This is a paradise location where you can play outdoors year 'round.

What makes this property unique

This is such a quiet and peaceful spot. I love walking the dogs down the road to a little creek with a swimming hole just big enough for cooling them off. Being able to ride your bike from the home to go mountain biking or cycling for the day is amazing. Couldn't ask for nicer neighbors!
