About this property

Busbee Lookout 8Yrs 5🌟, Easy to Town & Parkway, All King beds, Big Sunset View!

After a day in town, visiting the Biltmore, breweries, shopping or out on the trail, get comfortable and spread out in our clean, spacious home. Watch the 35-mile sunset view from one of your private decks. At night when you return from the Asheville restaurant and music scene, look out over the twinkling city lights! We’re located up a good paved road just four minutes from a Blue Ridge Parkway exit, eight minutes from the Biltmore entrance, and eight minutes straight up I-240 to the town center, we’re as convenient a mountain top as you’ll find anywhere. It will take you longer to park downtown than it does to drive there.
With 3,300 square feet we offer generous spaces for gathering with your friends or family. The driveway is flat with plenty of parking. All three mountain-facing bedrooms have King Beds, each has its own Full Bathroom, and each one has its own Deck or Stone Patio facing the sunset side. The three Kings provide full comfort for six. A full size Futon and a full size Sleeper Sofa are also in the house. For small children there are two Pack n’ Plays and a High Chair ready for them in the closet. Off the kitchen/dining side there is another large deck for gathering with a table, umbrella and chairs, Gas Grill, and Lounge Chairs. A second table and chairs are under a covered section also on the deck. Enjoy the morning sun with your coffee on the East deck.
You'll find everything you need in our fully equipped kitchen with quartz counter tops, stainless appliances, a Drip as well as a Keurig Coffee Maker, along with plenty of dishes, silverware, pots and pans. Outside there is a Jenn Aire propane grille and an extra tank of gas is always handy. We have 300mbs 5G free WIFI, Charter cable, Netflix, Hulu, and ESPN+, on the 55" Sony smart TV. The house has one Gas Fireplace in the dining area, and one Wood Fireplace with wood provided for a little romance or just some extra coziness in the lower family area.

If you’re in the mood for some relaxation we’re located right next door to Shoji Japanese Spa. While we’re not part of the Spa it’s easy to book a wonderful Hot Tub or a Massage. You can even walk down the hill in your bathrobe if you like.

Please check out our Reviews! Hundreds of guests have posted their experience with us. We work hard to ensure everything is clean and ready so you can enjoy your Asheville visit to the fullest!

Great time as always

We had a wonderful time as always. We’ve rented this house on several occasions and it’s always been very clean and the views are wonderful from the back deck. It’s nice to be close to Asheville and Black Mountain but it’s a very peaceful setting up on the hill.

Amazing property!

We had a fantastic stay here. This is the best vacation property we have ever rented. The hosts have thought of virtually everything you could possibly need and provide a ton of helpful information. The kitchen is well-stocked, the beds are comfortable, and the view is beyond belief. We would love to stay here again.

Incredible, Wonderful Stay

The property was fantastic, just as advertised and as described in the many 5 star reviews. Richard and Margaret were probably the best hosts we ever had, were very responsive, polite and helpful. The location is perfect, about 15 minutes from downtown and from everywhere you'd want to go in Asheville. We would absolutely stay again, and would recommend for groups of all ages. We stayed with family, including a 1 year old and 3 year old, and the house had everything needed for kids. And what a view of the mountains.

The host did a fantastic job leaving notes about the house, restaurants, etc. I would have liked to stay longer and hope to stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Carlson

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

If you go West or South from downtown you often hit traffic and congestion. However if you head East on I-240 to our neighborhood you can zip straight to the house. It is so easy to get everywhere. The Parkway is at the bottom of the hill making high mountain access simple. The Parkway can also be used as a peaceful shortcut to everything from grocery stores, the post office, to the NC Arboretum. The Folk Art Center is just minutes North on the Parkway.

What makes this property unique

Finding a property this close to town with such an expansive view isn't easy. We are only at 2,500' elevation but we still float above the city below. The road is easy to reach the top yet the time driving to anywhere in town is short. We try to treat our guests the way we would like to be treated ourselves with plenty of comfort and space. Many properties try to squeeze in the maximum number but that has never been our goal. We continue maintain a good value with many of our rates the same as they were in 2018. Have any questions? Send them on, we're here for you!
