About this property

Asheville's Best Mountain Retreat-5 mile. Downtown! Pet Friendly,Nice Spa & Deck

Enjoy mountain living while only 5 miles from downtown Asheville! Located on Elk Mountain Scenic Hwy, a beautiful mountain road leading to the Blue Ridge Pkwy and is a major destination for road cyclists. Only minutes for N. Asheville and downtown.


Elk Mountain Scenic Hwy connects to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our home is only 5-minutes from all of the north Asheville amenities including Fresh Market and Ingles and only 10-minutes from downtown Asheville. It's an incredibly spacious home with 3 levels.

Relax on the deck while catching fire-flies, listening to the cicadas and watching for wildlife sightings - including turkeys and bears!

Over 2500 sq ft of space on close to an acre of land.

Master bedroom/bath with king bed is located on main level and has connecting bathroom with double vanity. The two bedrooms upstairs have queen beds and share a full bathroom, as well as an upstairs den with TV. In the fully finished basement you will find a separate living area with wet bar, dart board, private deck with porch swing, comfy couches and TV with video games and movies. On this level there is a king bedroom with private bath and separate entrance off this room for extra privacy.

The main house and basement have separate AC units to ensure comfort for everyone. We have toys and books for the little ones and a pack and play.

We are dog friendly and require an additional $75 Pet Fee per dog (per stay). Please note, fence around property is not secure or complete.

Hotsprings Hot Tub. $75 Cleaning Fee applies for use.

Our driveway is pretty steep and a little tricky. It holds 3-4 cars without anyone having to move their car. More cars would require some car shuffling to come and go. In the fall, wet leaves can be slippery on the drive.

In winter months, Asheville has the occasional snow or ice. Our mountain road is normally plowed right away, or melts off quickly, but sometimes it might be later in the day. So if you don't have 4wd it is the perfect opportunity to spend the day making snowmen and sledding!

Recently renovated with all new wood floors throughout home and all new painting. In addition, we have an upgraded kitchen with every amenity imaginable.

About the host

Hosted by Andy Saul

Host profile image
Laura and I have been short term rental property owners for over three years. We currently own three properties. We love Asheville and decided to purchase our latest rental here. We've tried to think of everything you will need, especially since we like to stay here at least once a month as well.

Why they chose this property

On Elk Mountain, but so close to Asheville's downtown, the Biltmore, groceries, shopping and more. You will truly feel like you are in the mountains, but you only have to drive up 3 miles from the main road. Four bedrooms, three baths and three common areas make it perfect for multiple couples of families..

What makes this property unique

Close to downtown (10-15 min) and breweries, but with a mountain feel. Groceries less than 10 min.
