About this property

Whimsical Mountain retreat with gorgeous views and privacy.

Ken and I offer a private mountainside retreat just 15 minutes drive from downtown Asheville and 8 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway which offers endless hiking trails, views, and waterfalls.
Guests stay in a private bedroom, bathroom, hallway area separated from the shared space by a sliding "barn door." You are welcome to enjoy use of the back deck, kitchen, and living room (with wood burning fireplace). My husband and I are the only other people in the home. I also enjoy making breakfast for my guests when I am available (which is most of the time).
There is a fire pit and also a lovely mountainside swimming pool available in season.
God has blessed us with a beautiful home and we'd like to share it with you.
Due to our moral standards we ask that couples wanting to book in our home be married. However, an alternate option for you would be our LOFT where that rule is more flexible. To book this, go to VRBO #1123338
(see pictures # 11 - 17) This is a separate building on our property, private entrance, and is an additional $30 per night. Breakfast is still available most mornings.

Great views, gracious hosts

Beautiful house with a gorgeous view from the balcony. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. This was the first time we stayed at a property where the hosts also lived--it was wonderful. We enjoyed hanging out with them. Just 15 minutes from downtown Asheville, yet it feels like you are in your own slice of paradise.

Gorgeous Space & Wonderful Hosts!

Ken and Becky have created a stunning sanctuary tucked back in the mountains away from the hustle and bustle of Asheville but close enough to enjoy all the city has to offer. I can’t say enough about how welcoming and accommodating they were! We hope to come back in the future!

What a blessing!

We were looking for a quiet place to getaway during our anniversary road trip! Ted & Becky are the best hosts! Beautiful house, beautiful view, quiet and peaceful! Kari the dog is as a bonus as we’d left our pup at home and were missing him! Thanks! We hope to be back someday!

Great Host!

I wasn’t able to go to the mountain retreat due to a sudden illness, and had to cancel my visit at the last minute. I was very disappointed. But, due to Becky’s outstanding communication and kindness, I will reschedule my stay without hesitancy. She reads her emails and responds very quickly, so you always feel welcomed, well-informed, and connected. I travel often for work and don’t like surprises! Directions were sent the day before my planned arrival. After doing extensive research I feel this a very safe, secure, and beautiful place in a nice location and has a rate that is more than fair.

I can’t say enough positive about this stay. The hosts were extremely friendly and hospitable. The space was very clean and comfortable. It had to be one of the most comfortable getaways we’ve ever had. We also enjoyed the pool that they offered, which was peaceful with beautiful setting all around. I would definitely recommend staying here again. I hope to be back!

Reflection time

Becky and Ken were such gracious hosts. Sharing their faith, their home, their mountain views and their friends. Helpful hints and suggestions on how to get to places and recommending places to go was definitely a plus. I look forward to being able to revisit again. The space was clean and organized. Privacy was respected at all times. I would recommend to everyone!
