About this property
Almost Heaven Mountain Top Cabin
Almost Heaven Cabin is the perfect cozy escape to relax, recharge, and enjoy a little extra privacy. Plan your getaway and experience the peaceful charm of authentic log cabin living surrounded by the beauty of Pisgah National Forest.
Whether you’re visiting with family and friends or enjoying a romantic retreat for two, you’ll love the towering trees, beautiful mountain sunrises, and the chance to spot local wildlife right outside your door.
Spend your days exploring the Asheville area or simply stay in and curl up with a good book, cook a cozy meal, or take a peaceful stroll along the private trail right at the cabin. After a day of adventure, it’s the perfect place to unwind. A little slice of mountain heaven is waiting just for you.
The cabin is only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, Black Mountain, the Biltmore Estate, and many other attractions.
Our guests frequently ask two questions: "Who decorated your cabin?" and "Who cleans your cabin?" We hope these questions reflect the personal care and attention to detail we put into making your stay as perfect as possible!
The cabin features pine wood floors, modern appliances, TVs in every room (with cable), Wi-Fi, and a fully stocked kitchen ready for all your cooking needs.
We often get reviews saying, "We thought of everything!" We provide coffee, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher pods, toilet tissue, shampoo and conditioner, towels, linens, and well...just about everything else except your groceries and your favorite playlist.
The cabin's open floor plan has plenty of space and light spread over 3 levels for your group to spread out and relax!
We welcome small pets. Please read the pet policy at the bottom.

**PETS: We love animals, and your four-legged pals, who are 35 lbs or less, are welcome to stay with approval and a $50 pet fee ($100 for monthly stays). We just ask that you don't allow them on the beds or furniture. If you cannot keep them off the couches, please bring covers to protect them, but we are very strict about our no pets on the bed policy. If an over-enthusiastic pet happens to leave their mark, their loving human guests will be financially responsible. Please let us know what type of pet you have when booking. Read more pet policy rules under the house rules section.
You'll be sharing this mountain hideaway with some pretty amazing locals—bears, deer, wild turkeys, owls, hawks, raccoons, possums, and bobcats may make an appearance! We welcome you to Asheville, where outdoor fun, stunning scenery, soulful music, great food, and unforgettable experiences await.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It’s beautifully decorated with so much heart — you can truly feel the love in every little detail. We appreciated being able to bring our dog, enjoyed cozy evenings together, morning coffee on the patio overlooking the stunning mountains, and hosting my husband sister for a special family visit. The setting was absolutely beautiful, everything was perfect, and we would definitely stay here again if we return to the area.

Thank you so much for the lovely review and for taking such great care of our special cabin. We’re glad you felt at home and were able to enjoy the mountain views, cozy time together, and a special family visit. It means a lot to us, and we’d love to host you again if you’re ever back in the area.
Cozy yet very spacious cabin with everything you could need. Great layout, very clean, comfortable and a good working kitchen. The host was amazing and our stay was really perfect! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or location.
Almost Heaven is exactly how we felt! The cabin was perfect in every way. It was fully prepared for our stay. Bring your clothes and food, then start your relaxing vacation. We loved the lay-out, fully stocked kitchen, bathrooms and outdoor space. The hiking trails were even marked for your safety. If you want to enjoy an outdoor fire, they even provide the wood. The host has thought of everything! It’s also close to stores and restaurants if you miss the city. We will be back to “Almost Heaven Mountain Top Cabin.”

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! It truly means the world to hear that Almost Heaven lived up to its name for your stay. 😊 we hope to see you again soon!
We had a wonderful stay in Wende's house. The house has everything you might need down to tiny details. And the views of wooded slope and distant mountains are incredible!

Thank you so much for your stay with us during the Christmas holidays!
Wende was extremely helpful and accommodating. The cozy cabin was stocked with everything you could ever need. The master king bed was so comfortable and our kids said their beds were comfortable also.

Thank you so much! 💛 We’re thrilled your family was comfortable and felt right at home, especially those cozy beds! Come back and visit us again anytime.
We had a great time at Almost Heaven! The cabin has everything you need with beautiful windows to enjoy the nature and twinkly lights for a great ambiance!
Our family of 6 (kids 13, 11, 8, snd 6) had a lovely time at the cabin! It is exactly what we were looking for to get away…a cute cozy cabin tucked away into the woods. The inside is just darling and Wende was a wonderful host. We had Thanksgiving here and found the kitchen to be well appointed for this. The beds were really comfortable too! We really loved our time here and found the location to be perfect-only about 20 minutes from Asheville.
Yes it was cozy, we loved the fact that cabin was very well equipped with many little but useful things. everything went smooth. I didn't even need to talk to the host even once. instructions were so easy.

Thank you for staying with us! We enjoyed hosting your family.
This was the perfect cabin for our girls' weekend. There were only 3 of us, and we each got our own bed and room. The cabin is so cute, and Wende has thought of every detail to make it homey and hospitable. We will definitely return. The cabin feels secluded and has beautiful views of the woods. It's also conveniently located to downtown Asheville. We loved cooking in the kitchen and relaxing. Thank you!
Loved this cabin and the hospitality of the owners!
Great location to enjoy a private woods setting yet close enough to Asheville and to hiking of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Guests were wonderful to host! They were very easy to communicate with and they left our cabin sparkling clean! We would recommend them for any future hosts and hope they come back to visit soon.
Host was reliable with giving you information. Cabin was clean and well stocked with the small things you tend to forget. View was great and the property is secluded just enough. Rest and relaxation came easy at this cabin.
Exceeded our expectations and was a delightful 4 night stay.Well appointed and tasteful, comfortable furnishings in ideal secluded spot outside Asheville

We really enjoyed our stay, plenty of space and peaceful surroundings. We had everything we needed and were close enough to the city so still convenient to go shopping etc. Would reccommend.

Thank you for staying with us for your special occasion and for the nice note in our guest book! We appreciate the care you took of everything. We hope you will come back and visit again soon!
We had a really enjoyable stay. Everything we needed was there. Very nice secluded location with access to hiking trail right out our door but less than 30 minutes to all the activities we were interested in.

About the host
Hosted by wende kimble
My husband and I have lived in Asheville for 20 years. It is our joy to share our special cabin with guests so they can create lasting memories with their friends and family.
Why they chose this property
It's very private in the woods but close to everything. The cabin is quiet with lots of wildlife including bears, deer, bobcats, and raccoons to name a few. The cabin is in a beautiful setting with a pastoral drive passing farms and cows and spread-out neighborhoods. Hard to believe it is so close to downtown and all the activities that Asheville has to offer!
What makes this property unique
Hiking right out the front door. Lots of nature surrounding the cabin and very private and quiet. It's convenient to all things Asheville, making it a great home base while exploring.
