About this property

Top O' The Knob, Private Entrance, Romantic Getaway, Private Deck, and Fire Pit

Your own private entrance, deck, suite, spa bath, double shower, lounging area, eating area, and fire pit for our guests.

Our guests confirm that WE ARE CLOSE TO EVERYTHING!

As we move into our tenth year with Vacation Rentals, our goal remains the same: To provide our guests with a safe location to stay and super clean accommodations. We use the recommendations of the CDC for disinfecting between each visiting guest. We use plush towels, hand towels, and wash cloths.

We have three new features to ensure our guests have an exceptional time in Asheville. First, we have added a fire pit with supplied fire wood provided as an optional feature and for a slight additional fee. Second, we now have a whole house generator so our guests have an uninterrupted power source while here. And, third, we just installed a new mini-split air conditioning unit so guests have complete control over their room temperature and can be comfortable year around.

When you stay with us, we look out for you…we turn on extra lights when you come and go and we’ll help you with anything you might need while you’re here. As many of our guests have stated in their reviews, we are close and easily accessible to everything in the Asheville area. In addition to Asheville, we’re midway between Black Mountain and Cherokee in the Great Smoky Mountains. Many of our guests have commented that our suite is bigger than the picture looks – it is over 500 square feet! We offer high-end bedding with a NEW pillow-top mattress, separate seating area, a dining table, hotel quality bath linens and bath amenities, large spa tub bath and separate double shower, and private deck/porch with lovely views of the mountains. Paved entrance and reserved parking allow guests to come & go as they please. For your entertainment while lounging in your seating area or from your bed, we offer Charter Spectrum Live Streaming Television, Hulu, Prime Video, Paramount Plus, and others. For your listening pleasure, Spectrum offers multiple music channels, and free WIFI. Also in the suite is a DVD player, microwave oven, Keurig Coffee Maker, and refrigerator/freezer. Uber Cab and Lyfte are available to and from the location at 72 Candler Knob Road, Asheville. 28806. We have well over 300 five-star reviews from VRBO and other rental sites. Come stay with us…you won’t be disappointed!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We loved our stay at Top of the Knob! The view from the cabin was lovely, and the inside was very comfortable. We loved the soft bed, and the two shower heads were awesome. Patti and Ken were great as well - so communicative and accommodating! We would recommend it to anyone visiting Asheville.

Ken and Patty greeted us with a warm welcome and were eager to share recommendations for things to do and places to eat. The cabin was absolutely perfect—just like our hosts—and gave us true Adirondack vibes. On our last day, it even snowed, and through the falling flakes emerged the most beautiful sunrise.

Great stay, the host were more than commendating with great communication. Loved the jetted tube, comfortable king bed, double showers and fire pit. The cost of the fire wood is an addictional 20 so keep that in mind. There is a door at the end of the hallway that conjoins the space to the main home but no issues with them using it, just to keep in mind. Parking was not too bad once you do it the first time, I recommend you back into the parking space once your drive in, so your car is facing the exit to make things easier upon departure each time.

This was a great place to stay for a little weekend getaway. Ken and Patty were very kind & helpful getting us settled in and giving recommendations for our weekend. The room was comfortable and clean, and the location made it easy for us to access where we wanted to visit in Asheville while also being a good place to rest. Note that there is not the best sound-proofing between the room and the main house, so we did hear a bit, mainly during the day/evening. It wasn't super disruptive, but may be helpful to know for others exploring a place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Ken Cross and Patti Sharp

Host profile image
Ken moved to the area in 1982 from Florida, and Patti arrived 10 years later. We met in 1996 and have been together ever since. In 2007, we bought our West Asheville home on the top of our Knob because of the spectacular view and privacy. Ken retired in 2008, and Patti is semi-retired. Patti is a part-time potter and has her studio in the basement of the home. Ken enjoys photography, and we both love to travel and are scuba divers. We love to host our guests at The Top O' The Knob Chalet, and hope to meet and help our guests learn more about Asheville. We've been hosting Guests since 2015 and we'd love to have you stay with us!
