About this property

Four Seasons Home on 3 + Acres with Streams Borders Pisgah National Forest

Stoneybrook is an extraordinary property that has numerous streams with massive stands of laurel and lush foliage bordered and protected by the US Forest Service. Enjoy walking the nature trails with unusual native wild flowers and an awesome stand of trees of many varieties (some of which are marked and identified... one hickory tree is estimated to be 150 years old).

The very spacious 24 by 28 feet outdoor pavilion with a stone fireplace is a favorite gathering place for each guest. Imagine a romantic evening listening to the crackling fire with your love, regardless of the weather or curl up with a good book while listening to the beautiful song birds and the babbling brooks.

We provide many magazines for your reading enjoyment. You will find many books with points of interest of this area and games and such for children. Provided are two mountain bikes for your pleasure.



The Vineyard with hardwood floors, cathedral ceiling, skylight windows, and cable television. Brookside offers hardwood floors, natural finish tongue and groove pine board paneling decorated in nature wood motif. The Nantucket says it all. It has its own skylight bathroom and is decorated to match its name. The cottage, according to many guests, has more to offer than just being a great vacation spot. It is nestled on 3.2 acres bordering Mount Pisgah National Forest and it is located only 10 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Each of the three bedrooms and 2 baths have been totally remodeled...hardwood floors, cathedral ceilings, skylight windows, tongue and groove pine paneling are some of the unique features. Snuggling in comfortable beds as the Katydids sing you to sleep is a dream come true! Beds are 1 king size and 1 queen and 1 full size beds with luxury bedding for your comfort.

We loved the entire property especially the outdoor entertainment covered patio including the fireplace. Wood was already prepared inside the fireplace and only required lighting it! That's hospitality! Every detail was well thought out inside the home too. Hopefully we will be returning!

Great Out-of-the-Way Spot

A beautiful cottage in the woods

This house and property is really special. It's incredibly clean and well kept and has amazing land that backs up to Pisgah National Forest. You can be at the peak of Mt Pisgah and on the Blue Ridge Parkway in about 10 minutes, amazing! The hosts were wonderful and left a lot of nice touches to make us feel welcome. We can't wait to come back!

Another wonderful stay

This is our third stay at Stoneybrook. Every time we come back, we're blown away with all the improvements Mr. Watts has made since our last visit. The house is absolutely gorgeous, and the grounds really can't be beat. You're going to love it here! We've already booked it again for Fall. ❤️

Excellent Asheville Getaway

This was an excellent property for our stay in Asheville area. Our main purpose was to hike in the area and visit Asheville. This location was perfect for this as it was close to the Blueridge parkway and Asheville downtown was less than 30 mins. The house was very clean and equipped with everything you would need for your vacation stay. The outdoor area was awesome and we mostly spent our evening time there. The fireplace and the sound of the nearby creek added to the ambience. We would definitely stay here again.

Family mountain getaway

We all enjoyed our stay @ the cottage. It was a little farther away to Candler and Asheville than we expected. It was extremely close to the Blue Ridge Parkway which is a must drive. If you are adventurous and enjoy hiking, we loved Mt Pisgah trail to the summit which is only a 15 minute drive to the trailhead. Our kids enjoyed the property and outdoor area. Thank you for a wonderful Thanksgiving away!

Great little mountain hideaway!

We enjoyed our stay in this house. It was exactly as described on the VRBO information page. Fully equipped kitchen and bedrooms. Everything was clean and ready to use. It was completely decorated for the Christmas holiday (which occurred during our visit). Elmer was very friendly, helpful, and responded quickly when we had questions.

the reservation process was simple. The pictures was exactly as show.

Check-in was very simple. I received a personal call from Mr Watts which made the stay feel more like staying at a friend's house. It is in a quaint location. Easy to find and very welcoming. My sisters and I live in different states and wanted a moment to exhale and have some sister time. WE did just that we had a Blessed and relaxing vacation. It was clean and very organized an in our current state that was so much welcomed.

Our home away from home

This was our 5th stay at Stoneybrook, and it seems to just get better every time. Upon check in, we found the house immaculate as always, & it was beautifully decorated for 4th of July. We just love the grounds and private stream with the “summer house” out back most of all-we always spend lots of time back there. Mr. Watts is always available, and he is so kind & helpful. It is such a pleasure to be able to stay in the house that he & his wife Ruby take such special care to keep so inviting for all who come to stay! Thanks again for another wonderful time. We can’t wait to come back!

I cannot say enough about this property

Elmer and Ruby have The Nicest place tucked away from the hustle an bustle. Elmer was great at communication, and was very responsive with my only question. The property is immaculate, The outdoor Pavilion is where we spent most of our time as the weather was perfect. We also Visited Asheville, and the Biltmore Estate. The backyard trail leads to a private area with hammocks and sitting chairs... Do not hesitate to book this place. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

We were delighted with our stay at Elmer and Ruby's beautiful cottage. They provided everything we could possibly have needed. Elmer even had the outdoor fire place ready for us, all we had to do was light it with the lighter. No detail in providing a comfortable stay was left undone. The kitchen had every cooking tool you might need and everything in between from storage containers to parchment paper. The bed was very comfortable, plenty of fresh linens were available and there was a bookshelf full of points of interest to be explored. The property with the stream was so magical and the large outdoor room was beautiful. This home was immaculate inside and out. We can't say enough good things about our wonderful, friendly and responsive hosts and the week we enjoyed at their beautiful cottage. This home is five star across the board and we would give it more if we could.Thank you very much Ruby and Elmer!
