About this property

Black Mountain Log Cabin | Secluded, Pet-friendly 3BD with Hot Tub & Views!

Relax and unwind at this beautiful, secluded getaway. Black Mountain Log Cabin offers stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from inside the home, out on the wrap-around deck, and while in the 6-seater hot tub. Located in Creston, a private gated community with an emphasis on natural preservation, enjoy the beauty of the area and clear skies at night. Enjoy your cruise through the community, on the paved roads, and bask in the beauty of the area before arriving at the delightful log cabin.

Walk down from the parking pad along steady and tree-lined gravel steps to the charming log bridge connecting to the house. The wraparound porch has great rocking chairs staged at various views around the home. Take in the best vista on the back corner of the home where the trees frame the Blue Ridge Mountains as you sip your morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Down below is a cozy deck with a hot tub and fire table, lit by tiki torches and fairy lights.

At night, observe the constellations from the hot tub, or a blanket in the yard, thanks to the dark sky community restrictions in place. Featuring cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors, and an intimate living space, this cabin invites you into a casual setting filled with luxury touches. The galley kitchen has the essentials you need to create a delicious dining experience - a gas range, drip coffee maker, and basic cookware. Curl up in either living space with a bowl of popcorn and watch the game or stream a movie on the Smart TVs, with a cable package that includes the NFL channel and the SEC Network (please note the basement TV is streaming only).

Located within the upscale and gated community of Creston just south of Black Mountain, Black Mountain Log Cabin is surrounded by 330+ acres of protected land within the community which connects to thousands of acres of Pisgah National Forest and Foothills Land Conservancy property. Sit on the deck and listen to the sounds of the waterfalls down below.

In the morning, have brunch at either Blue Ridge Biscuit Company in Black Mountain, 25 minutes away, or Biscuit Head in Asheville, 40 minutes from the home. Both establishments specialize in giant cat head biscuits piled high with delightful toppings. While in town, take an afternoon to browse the numerous galleries lining downtown Asheville and the River Arts District and perhaps discover your new favorite artist. Schedule a dinner at the eclectic and delectable Vivian to sample the seasonal European-inspired eatery, and follow up with wine by the glass or bottle at Bottle Riot.

Great cabin

Close to Asheville, Catawba Falls, and Black Mountain. Cabin was perfect for us, everyone had their own bedroom/bathroom and privacy. The little yard was perfect for our little dog. Hot tub was clean and easy to use. Took post-hike dips and enjoyed the sunsets and fireflies. WiFi worked great. Well kept neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Felt safe yet secluded. Great stay!

Secluded Getaway

The property was in a perfect location for us. Secluded and quiet, exactly what we needed. The hot tub only added to our relaxation. The house was clean and would be perfect for two couples. The communication for check in and directions to the house were spot on and very helpful. I would recommend this property for anyone that wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of it all.

Long Weekend

Fantastic location, views and privacy. Inside is spacious and well furnished. Only area that could genuinely use some attention is the noticeably low water pressure and temperature in the sinks and showers. Otherwise, great spot!

Isolated and beautiful

This property is ideal for the ultimate 'social distancing' - it's at the end of a winding mountain road, and offers a gorgeous view of surrounding mountains from the deck. Furniture and beds are all comfy and spacious - big flat screens in three rooms for binge watching. Kitchen is relatively small for such a big house, but well-equipped. Overall a terrific getaway.

Beautiful Mountain Escape

This was a beautiful property with gorgeous mountain views. The roads were paved and made for easy access to this somewhat remote cabin away from it all, which is exactly what we were looking for in a getaway. We loved the outdoor areas and spent a good deal of time on the porch in the rocking chairs, the hot tub, by the fire pit, etc. where we enjoyed the beautiful views. We got to see more wildlife than expected, a pleasant surprise. The management company was very responsive to any issues.

Beautiful weekend

Truly gorgeous setting! Cabin very clean and cozy. The fireplace in den wouldn’t light, the shower downstairs only puts out cold water. Minor inconveniences. Would suggest owner invest in some non stick frying pans and a couple of baking dishes. We really enjoyed the back porch and hot tub. Can’t wait to come back.

Relaxing Getaway

This house is perfect for a relaxing & peaceful stay in the mountains. The house is just like the photographs shared online; we loved the fireplace/heaters as well as the outdoor fire pit & the hot tub. It seems very well cared for & up to date! The only thing I would add that we would have liked to know before our stay are the winding roads that lead to the property. Although we did except this in the mountains, the road to the cabin is very steep & has several sharp turns which can be scary when the weather turns foggy- which did happen. We also had to end our stay early because of a winter weather advisory & not being equipped with a car that could handle the roads if they were icy. We did not see any mention of what to do in that scenario so we left early! Altogether it’s a beautiful property & we loved spending time here!

The most perfect cabin!

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was my husband and 1 year old. Beautiful views and the fire pit and hot tub were so relaxing at night. Loved rocking on the back porch in the mornings. Fireplace was super easy to use as well by a switch on the wall, no work to have to actually make a fire yourself. Of note (not worth a bad review) the water pressure is low and water temp didn’t get too hot, which is understandable since it’s from a well. The refrigerator water tastes weird so we drank out of the sink. And the cabin is a solid 25-28 minutes from town on very curvy and steep roads/hills. But the drive was still beautiful and enjoyable. I get carsick so I had to drive every time. Would 100% recommend and stay again!
