About George Stanley
I am retired. I enjoy my two cats, Olly and Geo.
I retired from the Community College System and enjoy meeting people, thus the rental.
I enjoy traveling and finding neat places. I hope I have created one here.
George Stanley purchased this apartment in 2007
Why George Stanley chose Smoky Mountains
I had a half -finished basement when I purchased the home, which I separated from the house upstairs. I envisioned a downstairs cabin so others could enjoy the beautiful mountains as I do.
What makes this apartment unique
Living on a rural mountain and bordering the Biltmore Estate Property, there is an abundance of wildlife - turkey, deer, pheasants, bear, raccoons, generally all sorts of wildlife. I have pictures of bear in the yard and in close-by trees.
At an elevation of 3,346 feet, the cabin overlooks a huge valley. The valley is often filled with fog, creating a beautiful sunrise at eye-level.

Gorgeous Mountain Views!
We had a great stay at Georges for the few days surrounding 4th of July. It had plenty of space for two people and two large pups. We enjoyed that it was a short drive to Asheville but felt incredibly secluded. The views from the covered deck were breathtaking. I wouldn't hesitate to book another stay at George's cabin!
Amazing sunrise
Beautiful place
Views are like from a postcard
Just what we wanted
Perfect for traveling with a dog
Streets to the house are very steep would be the only drawback ...if you are driving stickshift like I did
This was the perfect place for our trip. It was so cozy and beautiful. We will be back sometime
We honestly cannot say enough great things about George's place. The views were incredible, the space was perfect, and George was a gracious and wonderful host. We wish we had a longer trip and more time to talk to him and explore his beautiful space some more!
We loved every minute of our vacation in this beautiful location.
This cabin is exactly as it is presented here on VRBO. George was the perfect host and thought of everything we needed. We had some rainy days, and the fireplace made it warm and toasty. The view from the deck is amazing. The location is perfect for a visit. We were close to town, but the cabin has a very rural feel. The Blue Ridge Parkway is just around the corner and I 40 gave us great access to the Biltmore and Asheville. We enjoyed our week, but by far our favorite thing was hanging out at the cabin and enjoying the nature that surrounded us. I would give it more than a five if that was possible. We can't wait to return!!!
It wasn't beautiful, clean, private, and well work the price!
The cabin stay was absolutely great! The cabin was clean and the perfect size for 2 people plus my 2 dogs! George was super nice and helpful! It was more private than I expected it to be! The location is great and close to everything! I will be staying here again! Well worth the money!
Beautiful mountain top stay!!
We stayed for only a couple nights at George's beautiful property and wished we were able to stay longer. The cabin is on the bottom floor of the main house and very private. George was a friendly and gracious host whom we enjoyed chatting with. Beautiful views from our deck of the sunrise and it was nice having coffee out there. George is developing the grounds with a sunset viewing area and we enjoyed sitting out there as well. The grounds must be beautiful once everything is in bloom. We toured the Asheville area and decided we need to comeback and spend more time in this beautiful spot. We will come back to stay here! The drive up the road is a bit steep but it is well worth it. Thank you for a great stay!
