This was our second stay at The Great Escape.. and it probably won't be our last. Kim does a great job of ensuring your stay feels like a home away from home while still giving the privacy, cleanliness and convenience of a well managed property.

Lovely holiday getaway

My cousin and I stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved it. Excellent location, less than a mile to downtown Black Mountain. Quiet neighborhood, fenced in yard for my pup, and a super clean home. Everything was well labeled and easy to use. We would absolutely stay here again!

The home was lovely and just as pictured. Our pup loved the fenced yard. The owners considered everything you might need plus many extras. Very convenient to downtown Black Mountain. We loved sitting on the porch!Jeff & Donna
