Great retreat
The place was fantastic and one of the few places Iā€™ve been to that the pictures actually reflect the place. It is a vacation for rest and relaxation. 5 bedrooms with a full bath in each. I half bath a long side of the great room. Itā€™s like having 5 hotel rooms for the price of 1 luxury room. Except you are all together with full kitchen stocked with everything you need. I canā€™t say enough about his place. Not much to do in Ashville but drive a little and thereā€™s plenty around. 10 stars.

Amazing Mountain Top Home
This is a beautiful property. The home was super clean, cozy, and had plenty of room for our family of 9 and our dog as well! The kitchen is large and had everything we needed to cook meals and more. There were plenty of cups, silverware, and plates and the dining table held 9 people easily. Both a coffee pot and Keurig were available. Gas fireplace kept things nice and warm. The beds were comfy with plenty of pillows and blankets. There were extra towels and wash cloths in every room. Every little detail was thought of. We even got to see 4 black bears wander past the back window on the first night there! Awesome place, we definitely recommend staying here. It is a steep drive up, so be careful renting in the winter months.

Wonderful house for our family(10) vacation!
I only wish our stay was longer! This house was perfect for our family of brothers, sisters, cousins & parents to get together and enjoy the Asheville area. The house slept all of us comfortably and the amenities for outstanding. A beautiful deck for early morning coffees and late afternoon relaxing. I would surely consider staying here again.

Fantastic Black Mountain cabin
This is a really fantastic property. Everything is as advertised and in great condition. We had plenty of space for our group of seven adults each sleeping in their own bed. This house would work great for a couple of families - 3 comfortable king/queen suites plus 2 nice bunk room suites for lots of kids. Lots of sitting and gathering areas inside and out. The location is great. It is very convenient to the town of Black Mountain, but you are essentially on a private, quiet sub-peak of the mountain looking over the valley from the back deck. Hoping to come back for a vacation with my family soon!

Family Vacation
Our 2 families of 5 had a wonderful stay. The lodge is spacious, we were all able to find our own space! The kids slept in the basement and enjoyed the air hockey and the hot tub. One family slept on the main floor. The other family slept on the second floor. We cooked and ate at the lodge and also out at restaurants. It was convenient having an Ingles at the bottom of the mountain. Thank you for sharing your lodge with us.

Had a great time!
Place was amazing! Location was perfect. My husband saw a bear in the driveway! That was very cool. House was very clean! There were only a couple things we did not like. There is no fire pit or bonfire area. They said itā€™s a community ordinance. A cabin in the mountainsā€¦.. that is a must! The listing needs to say that. The kitchen needs different pots and frying pans and definitely a griddle. We had a heck of a time trying to make breakfast every day while we were there. The pans are terrible. And you definitely need more than 1 hand towel and dish cloths. Overall, place was great location was perfect.

Great house, good views, lean on supplies
Great house. Loved the layout. Mountain views were good. Could do some tree trimming to allow for more mountain top views. Could also do some brush trimming to allow for better views into the forest floor surrounding the property. Supplies were a little lean. Not enough paper towels, laundry tablets, dishwasher tablets, dish towels, coat hangers, or hand soap. In generally, kitchen was minimally stocked. We made do, but it needs work. You'll also have to deal with paying fees to VRBO and a 4th party called Carolina Mornings. They'll add additional paperwork and stipulations. Everything else was great.

Oak and Grist Distillery family reunion
Was fine. Kitchen was not adequate with utensils and cookware. The air hocked and foosball tables were not well maintained. Air hockey paddles were broken and we had to repair them repeatedly. Foosball handles were missing or slipping off. One or two of the players were not functioning. Cornhole bags were leaking sand.
