Excellent home in an amazing location. The property was immaculate and every convenience has been thought of. There are no corners cut in this property. We enjoyed the home and the amenities and still felt like we had the privacy of the mountains with the convenience of the downtown within minutes.

This property is amazing and couldn’t be in a better location! It’s tucked away from the hustle and bustle, but walking distance to downtown restaurants and shopping. John’s communication from booking from check-out was excellent. He and his team anticipate guest questions and have answers before they’re asked. The home is immaculate and although it’s a duplex style house, we felt like our space, even the outside space, was private and we never felt like we were sharing walls with the other property.

Good Location

Chris, the location of your condo was great. Loved being able to walk down the street to Fresh Woodfired Grill and Lookout Brewery. Our only complaint was lack of comfortable seating in the living room. Wish there had been another chair or two to sit in other than the low sectional sofa. Thanks!

Girls getaway

I typically don’t do reviews, but this property was so fantastic that it needs to be mentioned. From the time that we booked, the communication was so perfect that we didn’t need to do any research prior to our trip to come up with ideas of what to do. The property is amazing and will not disappoint. It is close to everything so you can walk to restaurants and stores around town. We will definitely be booking again.

The perfect stay

Chris’s place was beautiful, and he included so many thoughtful amenities. My parents and I spent a weekend here, and we agreed that we would love to return. The location is perfect- you can walk easily to many restaurants, bars, and hear live music down the street. It feels very private, and the sauna showers with Bluetooth are so relaxing. We instantly felt as though we were on vacation as soon as we walked through the door. I can’t recommend this property enough.

Excellent Experience

We had the most wonderful stay! The house is charming, incredibly clean, every detail was thought out, comfortable beds, soft linens, beautiful, modern farmhouse decor, each window and balcony had a view, location could not have been better to walk into Black Mountain. A very short drive into Asheville. Host was quick to respond. Check in and check out process absolutely seamless. Hands-down one of the cleanest VRBO‘s I have ever stayed in! I would stay here again 100% and that was the consensus of all three couples who spent the weekend in the house. The only thing I would add is that the third floor loft room does have a door however, there is an open balcony portion, so it is not 100% private but that would be my only comment/thing to make renters aware of. It met and even exceeded our expectations!

Great Spot!

We had a wonderful stay. The pictures are 100% accurate. Lots of nice touches we haven’t seen at other properties. For example, We didn’t cook, but if we’d wanted to, there were plenty of spices. Nice coffee selection. It didn’t feel like they were trying to “nickel and dime” us. I really don’t like it when you check in and there’s nothing there for you to use. You need to go to the store if anyone needs to use the restroom. This home felt like it would if you were staying with friends. Love all of the laminated sheets with directions to local spots. And instructions on how to use all of the amenities like the hot tub, sauna, etc. It feels like a lot of thought went into setting everything up. We’ll absolutely be back. Thank you!

Black Mountain Girls Trip

We had a great time staying at this place. The amenities at the place really helped us for just relaxing. We did the hot tub, then one evening we did the fire pit with sauna. Location was great to walk to everything and close to hiking which was great. The big table was awesome for all of us (8) of us to eat at. We appreciated the stay. Lovely home.

We arrived as a group of ten 30+ women looking for a relaxing girls' getaway weekend. The spaces were spotless and they had thought of everything. Chris was the best property manager I've worked with. Everyone raved about how beautiful and cozy it was. We loved it and highly recommend staying here if you're planning to be in the area!

Great experience

Black Mountain is a perfect location away from the pace and tourism of Ashville but close enough to be convenient. The home itself was well designed, clean, very comfortable and had all the amenities. The team overseeing the property made sure we had everything we needed; plenty of towels, bathroom and kitchen accessories, high chair and bath for the baby, games and more. We highly recommend this VRBO.

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE ALL AROUND!! Wow!

We walked in and we’re all blown away! The smell of the newness and the smell of it just being cleaned. The owner didn’t miss a beat! Chris was on point for everything. I mean EVERYTHING!! All the little helpful notes kindly posted everywhere. From Water in the fridge, coffee pods, hand sanitizer, great smelling soaps, shampoo/conditioner, hair dryers, towels galore, magazines, books, games even! I’m normally the crazy person that brings my own, utensils, dishes, cups, wash clothes to wash my own face because I don’t like to stain them with my make up. This is the first time I felt comfortable using someone’s dishes! Everything was pristine clean. Like pristine clean and I’m extremely picky. He even had face washing towels for makeup (I used used mine own lol). The decor was amazing and so thoughtfully designed. There was a sauna and I thought probably won’t use it but it was cleaned. He has is cleaned every other day. The showers were steam showers, had neat lighting and music ?! Wow. TVs in all the bedrooms (expect one) and those bunk beds were so neat our boys loved them! Beds were so comfortable! Need I say more? You won’t be dissatisfied or disappointed. This is a must stay! We will definitely be back! Thank you Chris! You’re place should be rated top pick if it’s not. Just blown away!

Beautiful well appointed home in Black Mountain

Loved our stay! The house feels brand new. Very updated, clean, well decorated. Had everything we needed and then some. Chris, the owner, was very helpful, friendly, and easy to communicate with. Great local tips on dining, attractions, and general info. Great for a Mother/Daughter weekend. Our teens loved the bunk room and hot tub, and being able to walk into town. Would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Curry

Host profile image
I'm an entrepreneur who loves to build and travel. Following college I lived across the Southeast and abroad for twenty years, before returning home to these mountains. I'm here to stay.

I own and manage Catalyst Properties and love bringing guests and travelers to the Black Mountain-Montreat community.

Why they chose this property

Built in 2020

What makes this property unique

Location:

★ 2 block walk to the center of Intown Black Mountain (shops, boutiques, restaurants, museums, galleries, and breweries)
★ Across the street from popular day spa “Black Mountain Massage & Wellness”
★ 10 minutes to Lookout Trailhead and pristine Pisgah National Forest trails
★ 10 minutes to Kitizuma trailhead, one of the Southeast’s premiere mountain biking single track trails.
★ 20 minutes to White Water Rafting & Kayaking
★ 20 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway
★ 1.5 hour to Mount Mitchel, the highest mountain range this side of the Missisippi.
★ 50 minutes to Wolf Laurel Ski Resort.
★ 20 minutes to DT Asheville/the Biltmore Estate (14.6 miles).

From the outdoor hot tub deck you can see portions of the Blue Ridge Parkway, which will take you to MT Mitchell, (at 6,684' it's the highest and most visited peak on the east coast) in roughly a 1.5 hour trip…one of the most breath-taking and unforgettable drives on the eastern seaboard.

PETS:

1. FOR NON-PET GUESTS concerned about possible past evidence of pets or hypoallergenic questions:

Our cleaning crew is second to none and is one of the reasons we maintain a 5 star rating. We have meticulously high cleaning standards, so pet hair, dander, or pet odor, is not an option here. But, for those with pet allergies, this is not one of our hypoallergenic listings.

2. FOR PET GUESTS...We’re a dogs only listing with a 1 dog, 80 lb limit for the $75 pet fee.

If Fido is crate trained (and does not bark while crated), it is fine to leave the pet crated and unattended. But at no time is the pet to be left unattended if it is not crated. So please don’t risk leaving the pet alone if he’s not trained to refrain from barking. This is a townhome, so unfortunately, if a neighbor calls and complains that the pet next door is barking uninterrupted, then the pet will have to be kenneled. We enforce this. Thank you for your consideration.

If Fido is an escape artist or a barker, this is not the best listing for your pet.
