Mom’s 80th birthday

We had a great time here and the property is well appointed and nice. Each bedroom is large and has its own bathroom and shower facilities. We saw a bear family a couple times, So keep that in mind as you stay. The road to the house is winding and narrow, but we never ran into any other traffic so it was OK. Asheville is minutes away, so the location is great.

Amazing house for a large group of friends or family

The details and photos hardly do this amazing place justice. Everything is spacious but still warm and comfortable. It was such a pleasure to be here.

Perfect for a large group

We have a large group that comes to Asheville every year to check out the brewery scene. The Wayward Moose Inn was perfect for us. The property was plenty big enough for the whole group and having the ability to schedule a shuttle ride to downtown was an added bonus. We’ll definitely be looking to stay here when we come back.

Wonderful property for a large family gathering.

This was a great place for the whole family to have fun and share wonderful experiences. The access road could be a little dicey during a heavy rain but we were able to get around OK.

Great location for Business Retreat

Property is perfectly located, up in the high ground of surrounding mountains but easy access to interstate, stores and restaurants. Held a business leadership retreat for 8 people and was perfect for our needs.

Great stay for large groups!

We hosted a family reunion here - 20 of us from all over the world. The lodge was well appointed and set up for a group of our size. Gorgeous views, great location, well equipped and responsive owner. Loved that every bedroom had its own bathroom, plus multiple dishwashers and refrigerators. Would stay here again - highly recommend!

Perfect Mountain Getaway for a Large Group

The home was beautiful inside & out. The space offered was perfect for our party of 16 adults. It was amazing that each bedroom had a private bath. The gourmet kitchen, vaulted living room & dining room was perfect for entertaining. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Option for Family Vacations/Reunions

A wonderful option for a large family getaway. Convenient to downtown Asheville, numerous state and national parks, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Biltmore Estate, a small zoo, numerous breweries, and so much more. All bedrooms have an en suite bathroom, which worked out wonderful for us. Great communications with the owner, would absolutely consider coming here again.

Spacious and comfy

This is a really great place for a big family get together. We had 14 people stay here, and it was very comfortable. It was great that there were so many bathrooms. The views are amazing, and we really enjoyed the hiking trail above the house. The kitchen was nice, with very good appliances.

Our group was six adult couples. Every bedroom having its own private bathroom was a big plus. The great room was large enough to comfortably hold our group as we caught up with one another. Day trips to the Biltmore Estate and Lake Lure we easy drives.

We (8 friends) had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous home. The property is beautifully designed, with comfortable furnishings, and loads of amenities—a great place to relax and recharge. The kitchen was well-equipped, making meals easy, and the entire home felt thoughtfully maintained.The setting is equally impressive: stunning views, a relatively short commute to downtown Asheville, and unbeatable access to hiking trails—including one leading to an overlook—as well as a 45-minute hike to the impressive Folk Art Center and other local highlights. We loved being able to step outside and be immersed in nature so quickly.One note for future guests: the road leading up to the lodge is steep, so you may want to avoid bringing a car with a low chassis.All in all, this home exceeded our expectations and made our Asheville visit truly special!
