Very enjoyable

The roundhouse was wonderful for our visit during the holidays- clean, cozy but spacious enough, modern. Kitchen was well supplied as were bathrooms. We cooked several meals for our group of 8 and had no shortage of cookware etc. Beds were very comfortable. Enjoyed the views out of the many windows. The host was very timely in responses.

Great Mountain Getaway

This was our first time not staying in Asheville proper. A cozy but comfortable round cabin was just right for the six of us. The hot tub was a great bonus. We talked about grilling but never did, but the option is there. It was nice to have the washer and dryer too for our weeks stay. Lots of hiking nearby and a cute downtown area in Black Mountain. Host was good about checking in on us but not obtrusive. Highly recommend!!

. hair dryer was missing, one-bathroom doesn't have electrical outlet.

Besides these small things, which they are important on your vacation, I will say the place was very nice and clean.

Great views, comfy beds

Our stay was wonderful and we really enjoyed it. The views are amazing and the deck was the perfect place to hang out. The kitchen and bathrooms were also good. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the lack of a few amenities. We missed having trashcans and mirrors in the bedrooms. It would have also been nice to have extra blankets and better/more pillows. Two thin pillows on a queen bed were not enough. We would consider staying again! Thank you.
