There really is nothing that could have been better about this stay! Everything you could possibly need is provided (and then some). The views from the deck are absolutely beautiful and incredibly relaxing.The host is wonderful—very helpful, quick to respond, and provides a wealth of detailed, practical information about the area. It is completely obvious how much thought she gives to the needs of a traveler.What touched us the most was her genuine kindness. We arrived not feeling well after catching a virus, and she proactively checked in on us to see how we were doing and even offered to help us find local urgent care if needed. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or a more compassionate host. We will definitely return to this location. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing getaway!! This was truly a hidden gem in the mountains... private, beautiful, with everything we needed. The bed was comfy, the bathroom/shower was spa like but the views from the decks, breathtaking. We spent all our awake time outside from coffee in the morning to grilling and wine at night. You will never regret a stay at Skye Haven... and we are looking forward to visiting again in the future. Thank you Marilyn & Rick for sharing your home.

Perfect romantic getaway

My husband and I spent five days over Fourth of July in this amazing mountain cabin. Beautiful views from everywhere in the home. The host were excellent in communicating with us and so helpful in things to do. My husband says the filtered refrigerator water is the best water he has ever had. Perfect for a couple romantic getaway. We will be back.

Thank you for your kind review and for being wonderful guests. We look forward to hosting you again. Asheville does have good water which is why there are so many breweries in town like Sierra Nevada, New Belgium, Wicked Weed, and Highland. Asheville has a protected watershed which eliminates the need for lots of chemicals. We are so glad you enjoyed it!

Very special

The pictures and description are accurate. If you like what you see on the site, you will enjoy your stay. The only surprise was how close and convenient downtown Asheville was. It seems there was nowhere that we wanted to go that was not just minutes away. And super easy to get to. Great place. We hope to return.

Breathtaking View

It was such a treat to wake up in the morning! The view from the large doors and windows was often cloud or fog covered in the mornings, but the sun burned it off early and the view was fantastic! Our host was very accommodating and made us feel welcome and at home. It was surprising to glimpse bears roaming the mountain—we’d never seen that before. Loved our vacation here! The Hildreths, Ft.

My wife and I spent a week at this lovely property. Well suited for a couple with a very well stocked kitchen. The outdoor decks are great and had some of the most comfortable patio furniture we have encountered. Perfect for enjoying the awesome views.

Just as described!

We had a great time visiting Asheville and staying in Skye Haven. The property was just as we expected, the photos depicted it very accurately. Very lovely spot for a couple. The location was very close to downtown and all it has to offer. Marilyn was extremely attentive to any/all questions. The only thing we missed was laundry facilities. I never even thought about it until just before we left since we always had facilities but Marilyn did direct me to a local laundromat in the area.

Gorgeous view/location - great wildlife!

Had a great time overall! Amazing view from the back deck, quiet neighborhood and saw tons of bears which was really neat! Located only a few minutes from town and local grocery stores but feels like you’re miles away in the wilderness. Our hosts were very easy to communicate with, we’re very attentive to any needs we might have (which we did not), and were very welcoming. Very comfortable home with a great remote fireplace and very spacious shower! Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to check out the Asheville area and even spend a night or two just chilling grilling on the deck.

About the host

Hosted by Marilyn Ferrell

Host profile image
Asheville has been our home for 45 years. Rick first came here to work after graduating from Appalachian State University in Boone, NC where he fell in love with the mountains. I joined him a few years later when I fell in love with him and the mountains.
Early in our marriage, we spent weekends driving on the BR Parkway, hiking, and having picnics at various overlooks. When we found this home, we realized there was no better view anywhere and being only 5 minutes from downtown, the location was perfect. I grew up in the country and this home reminds me of my childhood home. It feels like a world away from civilization tucked away at the top of the mountain surrounded by beautiful nature and peace and quiet.
Asheville is also known as Paris of the South. I taught French for over 30 years and we have traveled extensively throughout France. We both share a love for Europe, France especially – Paris, of course, but also Provence, the Riviera, and all the wine regions (Champagne, Bordeaux, Burgundy). We love the Biltmore House, the eclectic city-life of Asheville, hiking, and staying active, fit, and healthy.
Since we spend a lot of time at the coast and traveling, we have decided to let others enjoy our home while we are away. We love our quiet little neighborhood and hope that our guests will find this hidden gem as mesmerizing and addictive as we have and that they will want to return.

Why they chose this property

We chose this home because of its location (close to town, top of the mountain, facing due south, 3000 ft elevation, private, secluded and in a natural setting). It was a perfect blend of our desire to live in the country yet to be only 3 miles from the city. The first time we saw the property at dusk and watched the view change from beautiful mountains to a sea of lights, we were in love with it.

What makes this property unique

Our mid-century home offers unique features such as large diamond-shaped windows and wood ceilings with beams which harmonize with the natural surroundings, much like Frank Lloyd Wright's philosophy of integrating nature into living spaces. The hickory floors add warmth and character while the rock fireplace w/gas logs and copper hood serves as a cozy spot for snuggling on chilly evenings. The expansive decks and cool covered front porch provide excellent opportunities for outdoor living and enjoying the stunning views that change with the seasons and times of day. Skye Haven is a cherished home that offers a unique blend of comfort, style, and connection to nature. It is a perfect place to celebrate a honeymoon, anniversary, birthday, or just a romantic getaway from the busy world.
