Short Trip

Our favorite cabin in NC. We’ll definitely be back. We loved the retro feel with modern amenities. It feels remote, but you can be in town in 20 minutes. We wanted to stay a few more days.

Really loved the retro feel and updated amenities. It is a seamless intersection between a Mike Brady designed house and JW Marriott Suite :)... My teenagers also got a kick out of it. Highly recommend.

Exactly what we were looking for!

The house was beautifully decorated and impeccable! The beds were comfy, views were great and common area was perfect to gather with friends. Loved the updated kitchen. It had everything we needed and even dog bowls and treats for the pups. The only thing I wish is that they had a TV in the upstairs common area but was nice to play games and interact with others without distractions! :) I would definitely stay here again!

x mas in sugar hollow

We had a lovely stay to celebrate x=mas with family in the neighborhood. The setting and view are fabulous and the house is very comfortable and has everything one could need. The driveway is steep but we had no problems with the AWD rental car. the power went out the first night there and was not on until 1pm the next day. A generator kicked on in the night and we had no hardship with the lack of power. we had a wonderful stay in the retro metro house.

Beautiful Escape

The house is a unique art piece itself and has so many lovely touches. From the kitchen, to the master suite, to the huge sliding doors all throughout the 2nd floor that let you open out into that deck that looks out in the mountains. Given the trees you pretty much always have the opportunity to be either in shade or in sun on the huge desk depending on your preference. The place feels very very private and you pass by horses and cows on the way up to the place. It feels like a very magical escape especially being so relatively close to Asheville. 10/10

Challenge

The location, condition of driveway and access into house is challenging if staying 2 months and older tenants. No access into house without stairs. An SUV is needed for driveway especially when rain. The first 2 weeks or so it rained everyday which made driveway an issue.

Way up there

The "Retro-Metro" house is a great blast from the past, and very well kept (if you saw the TV series "Mad Men" you have an idea of the style). The drive up there is steep and narrow so be prepared for that, but it's worth it because you are half way up a heavily wooded mountainside and will be able to enjoy lots of privacy in natural surroundings. Master bedroom and bath are really nice (we didn't use the other bedrooms), kitchen/dining area has everything you need. A bonus is a hiking trail that starts on the property and goes up (and I mean UP) to the top of the mountain. Hot tub works well and is easy to use. Rental company communicated well and were very helpful. Asheville/Fairview are starting to recover from the flooding so we felt good about helping with the effort.

Privacy in the trees!

This late 70's retro house has been beautifully updated. It retains its charm, expansive windows and woodwork while staying true to the style of the period. The kitchens and baths are all modern and the owners have thought of everything you could possibly want including thinking of your furry friends! When sitting on the deck- often the only sound is the birds and the rustling of the wind in the trees- and the decks are the stars of the property! Sunset is lovely. We visited Ashville multiple times while we were there for dinner and also went to Biltmore. The rental company was great about communicating about absolutely everything and let us know in advance about the steep driveway as well as answering any questions we had. Relax and enjoy the quiet!

Peaceful mountain house

Enjoyed the house, it’s beautiful view and all its amenities. The house was as advertised, check in was seamless and the property management group was responsive with an issue around a clogged shower drain causing a leak on our final day. Would absolutely recommend this house and go back.

Wonderful place for a family vacation

We stayed in the house in mid-February 2022, with two adults, four kids, and a dog. The house is fantastic -- very comfortable, extraordinarily well organized and maintained, and equipped with virtually everything you might need during the stay. Highly recommended.
