This is a wonderful place. The host had everything available at the home for a great stay. It is in a nice neighborhood and convenient to everything. Getting to downtown Black Mountain was about a two or three-minute drive. The interior was clean, neat, and attractive, and the back yard is totally enclosed and expansive. Terrific vacation home.

Property matched the online description exactly! We were grateful for all the child friendly accommodations, they made our stay easy and enjoyable. Our kids loved the playhouse! Location was perfect, minutes away from Black Mountain, Ingles (local grocery store), and Montreat. Our only regret was not staying longer. We will definitely reserve this home again during our next trip to NC. Lastly, our host Jessica was incredibly responsive! Within minutes, day or night she was always available to answer questions. 10/10 recommend this property for your next stay!

Perfect getaway! The house was very clean and comfy. We had everything we needed plus perks like snacks and s’mores. It was quiet and cozy but close to everything in black mountain. The EV charger was extremely convenient, the kids play area was adorable, and a fenced in yard meant our pup was happy and safe.

Jessica was an excellent host with outstanding communication! The house is very cozy and was very clean! This house is convenient to everything in Black Mountain (only 5-6 minutes away from town!). If you have a dog, you and they will love this property! The back yard is fully fenced and huge! Our dogs were having a blast running and playing together! I highly recommend this VRBO!

Best yet in BMT

We've visited Black Mountain numerous times and this property was the best that we have stayed at. Everything was spotless and all of the little things you might need were provided - coffee, snack basket, q-tips, cotton balls etc, etc ... The fenced back yard was perfect for our dog, and it was a quick walk to Lake Tomahawk to get her some exercise. Would definitely stay there again.

Great house!

We had a wonderful experience staying at this house. The place was spotless and had everything you need for a relaxing vacation. The fenced in backyard was great for us and our dogs to enjoy the good weather as well as the firepit in the cooler evening. 100% would stay again!

Feels like Home

We loved our short weekend stay at the property. The bed linens, towels, and little things really made us feel just at home. The convenience of the location to all that we did was perfect. The neighborhood is a little trashy but the houses directly surrounding it are fine. This didn't impact our stay at all. We will definitely stay again!
