Swannanoa house rentals

When we arrived the beauty of the stone cottage took our breaths away. Seated on the hill with a great view of the mountains in the distance. Especially spectacular at night as the sun sets behind them and the sky turns pink and orange. Then the fireflies appear and the magic and wonder that lit up in my children's eyes was something I'll never forget. The inside is cozy and clean, soft beds, hot showers, AC worked wonderfully. As we settled in a black bear came down the ridge and right up to the house. We were ecstatic! In fact we saw one every day we were there. It was an awe inspiring experience. I love the history behind the cottage and the info on Mr. B himself. It made the house feel like a home that had been loved and cherished by many. We even turned on the red and green lights to honor Mr B and make ourselves feel like a part of his legacy. I particularly loved the Polaroid station and we hung a selfie of our family of 5 up. Also the bottle of prosecco in the fridge was a lovely touch!! The owners were so gracious to us. We fell in love immediately and wanted to stay an extra night which they happily accomodated. This was our first family road trip from Florida and we are happy to say that we have found "our" place in the mountains. Thank you so much for the lovely stay. We can't wait to come back!!!!

“Big Red” is a perfect place to stay for comfort, coziness and relaxation! The home has wonderful views from the porches, and I loved waking up to hearing birds singing while I drank coffee on the porch. The hot tub was wonderful after a long day of hiking. The hosts were wonderful and greeted us for a tour. Very easy check in and out. Overall a wonderful stay and I’ll be back but next time I’ll stay longer! I didn’t want to leave!

This home is beautiful when you pull in, but even more so once you walk through the door. Everything you could need for your stay is included, and the home is at most a 20 minute drive from everything Asheville. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch, playing cornhole by the fire, and loved lounging in the game room with ping pong tv. We even had a black bear visitor meander through which was exciting. All in all it was a great visit in a home away from home. We'll be back for sure.

Stayed with my elderly parents and we were very comfortable. Nancy, my dad wanted me to tell you how nice the place was and he was very pleased with the stay. Thank you!
