Amazing Mountain Retreat!
Black Mountain Hilltop was the perfect Fall Break mountain getaway! Our family, 4 adults and 3 children, had the most perfect fall vacation! The cabin is even better than the pictures. Perfectly decorated to fit the setting, a great layout allowing for privacy with each bedroom having its own bathroom, and offering lots of room to spread out. The kitchen was great for cooking at home. Things provided that are not typically found in rentals. We appreciated the extra toilet paper, laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid, all natural soaps, lots of extra blankets and pillows. The kids and adults enjoyed the basement game room, lots of competitive ping pong games! It was nice having the two car garage to park both cars. We thoroughly enjoyed the outside heater for stargazing at night and the hot tub was a big hit with the kids! We also enjoyed sitting around the fire pit at night and the extra firewood that was provided. The best part is the amazing Mountain Views and the gorgeous sunrises! We never wanted to miss a sunrise. Breathtaking. The location of the cabin was perfect, the gated community located high enough up the mountain to offer those fantastic views. It was a bit of a winding drive getting there, but what can one expect- you’re driving up a mountain and those views totally made it worth it! We drove into Asheville a few times during our stay and it was about 25 mins. We enjoyed the town of Black Mtn, about ten mins or so down the mountain. We will definitely be back!

Mountain Golf
Looking for a beautiful, great place for 4 couples (golf trip), this is it. Accommodated 4 bedroom/bath, and wonderful open areas (inside and out) for group activities and just hanging out. As expected, many scenic but windy roads to/from activities.

Black Mountain
Really enjoyed our stay and despite some rain were able to enjoy some hiking and exploring Black Mountain. It was a great to come back to the mountain top Estate to enjoy some relaxing family time and the great views at the end of the day. The home is a wonderful family friendly home. Enjoyed the gourmet kitchen and playing games in the great room . Definitely will return

Great mountain getaway
Beautiful property set in the mountains. It’s not close to anything really - about 25 min to eating and activities, but this is fine because the seclusion is wonderful. Some great waterfall hikes nearby and the views are sublime. The accommodations are very considerate of anything you might need (the kitchen rocks). My only regret is I wish we would have stayed in the house more and did fewer excision. It’s great!

Beautiful mountain escape
Wonderful property, beautiful views, super clean, comfortable bedding. Quite a hike to get up the mountain but well worth the drive for the serenity this home offers. Wonderful game area in the basement for kids and family fun. Cool backyard for s’mores roasting, amazing deck for dinner and cocktails or enjoying the hot tub. Great place to stay while visiting asheville and surrounding areas!
