Stunning Views + Arcade Games | Serene Retreat | Cabin in the Sky by AvantStay
Welcome to Cabin in the Sky! Nestled high on a serene mountainside, this hidden Asheville retreat offers the ultimate blend of privacy and panoramic beauty. Surrounded by lush forest and with sweeping views of the mountains and valleys below, this is the escape you've been dreaming of.
Please note, to reach this property, a 4x4 (four-wheel-drive) or AWD vehicle is required due to the steep gravel driveway. Additionally, large work trucks are strictly prohibited on the driveway. Please adhere to this policy to ensure the condition of the road is preserved for all guests.
Step inside to discover a cozy, inviting living space where plush seating, warm wood finishes, and a charming wood-burning fireplace set the scene for relaxing evenings. The fully equipped modern kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances, invites you to whip up home-cooked meals. Enjoy your creations at the barstool seating, around the dining table, or even out on the deck for a scenic dining experience with nature as your backdrop. Fun awaits in the game room, equipped with a mini basketball shootout, a vintage Pac-Man arcade, and cornhole for friendly competitions. There's also a desk space for convenient remote work.
The expansive wrap-around deck is the highlight of the home, where every moment feels magical. Relax in the comfortable lounge seating under the covered section, soak up the sun on the loungers, or fire up the grill for an al fresco feast. The deck expands around the house, where you’ll find an outdoor dining table and additional seating. As the evening falls, gather around the fire pit in the yard, where you can toast marshmallows, share stories, and savor the peaceful ambiance of mountain life. Surrounded by serene forest and expansive valley and mountain views, the home’s outdoor space defines relaxation.
Retreat to one of four well-appointed bedrooms, each with a TV. Bedroom 1 features a queen bed. Bedroom 2 features a queen-over-queen bunk bed and a shared ensuite bathroom with Bedroom 3, which offers a twin-over-queen bunk bed. Located in a separate guest house, you’ll find Bedroom 4. This studio-style space features a queen-over-queen bunk bed with its own bathroom, mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and stunning wrap-around balcony. The large windows here provide unmatched views of the surrounding forest and mountains, offering a tranquil experience just steps away from the main house.
While the setting feels wonderfully secluded, you’re still close to some of the area’s most memorable experiences. Sip and savor local vintages at Addison Farms Vineyard, a family-owned winery just 4.8 miles away, or reserve an unforgettable meal at Montgomery Sky Farm, located 4.5 miles from the home, where Chef Taylor Montgomery—2026 James Beard Foundation semifinalist for Best Chef: Southeast—offers a one-of-a-kind, farm-driven dining experience.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted that the space was a great fit for your family gathering and that everyone, including the pets, felt comfortable. It’s great to hear you had a fantastic time, and we’d love to host you again.
House and location were great . Everyone enjoyed the stay and having access to the guest house is nice touch. House had great views and plenty of stuff for all. Only downside is the drive way very steep and gravel. Glad we had 4wd.

Thank you! We’re glad everyone enjoyed the house, guest house, and beautiful views. We appreciate the note about the steep gravel driveway and are happy it worked out with 4WD. We’d love to host you again!
My family loved our stay here. It was clean, well maintained, and homey. The kids spent most of their time in the game room and the adults watched the beautiful view from the deck. We will absolutely be booking thjs house again.

Thank you, April! We're so glad your family had a great time and enjoyed both the game room and the beautiful deck views. We’d love to host you again for another stay—looking forward to welcoming you back!
This place was perfect for us! We were traveling with another family so having the guest house worked out perfect for the older kids to hang without being around the adults. The views were incredible!

Thank you, Ashley! So glad to hear the setup worked well for both families and that the guest house gave the older kids their own space. And those views are something special—happy you enjoyed them!
