About this property
Serene, Private, Hot Tub, Private Trail, Fast WiFi, + Large Fenced Area for Dogs
A serene escape with a private hiking trail on property, hot tub, and fast internet. This cabin is accessible to downtown Black Mountain - less than 20 mins, and Asheville, 35 mins.
“Words cannot capture the true beauty of the house and its surroundings; even photos fall short.” – Kerri
Moonlight Cabin is a private retreat on 8+ acres of peaceful mountain land designed with tons of thoughtful details for families, couples, and friends. Spread out in multiple living areas, relax in the hot tub, or follow the short private hiking trail on the property down to the mountain creek—the perfect peaceful wooded trail!
Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen (featuring a KitchenAid mixer and All-Clad cookware), fast internet, and comfortable sleeping arrangements that include a king bed, an adjustable queen, and a pullout queen in the loft. Kids will love the twin tent beds, toys, board games, puzzles, and a fun property-wide scavenger hunt. The cabin also has kid-friendly cups, plates and a custom Moonlight coloring book to keep them entertained while you relax!
- Secluded Fire Pit: The fire pit in the pasture is perfect for quiet evenings toasting marshmallows under the stars.
- Private Porches: Sip your morning coffee or swing gently in the porch bed, tucked among the trees for complete tranquility.
- Dog-Friendly Fun: A very large, fenced-in area ensures your furry friends can enjoy the mountains safely while you relax. (Message for more info) $75 per dog
Looking for local fun? Black Mountain is less than 20 minutes away, offering boutique shopping, live music, excellent restaurants, and Moonlight's own immersive phone-based historical tour to help you explore the area. Asheville is 35 minutes away, featuring a vibrant art scene, renowned breweries, and unique dining options.
“Come, enjoy what feels like your own private mountain. You won’t regret it!” – Stephanie

We are big travelers! Inspired by all our stays, we use those experiences to make this place special – a peaceful haven surrounded by nature, with all the little things that matter. It’s the best when you find a place that allows you to spend time outdoors, relax comfortably, and live like you do at home. That’s exactly what we’ve tried to recreate at Moonlight.
