Jeffery, we're thrilled to hear you had an exceptional stay at Skytop Chalet! Thank you for your review, and please keep us in mind for future trips to the area.
The house was as great as it looks. Lots of dedicated towels for the amazing hot tub and a good supply of basic kitchen tools for food prep and baking. Pro tip for renters, though: If you plan on making use of that wet bar, bring your own bar tools, and maybe an ice bucket because there is no ice downstairs. Also, you might want to bring your own fireplace matches or a long lighter, just in case. Ours was almost empty and it's needed to light the grill and the fire table. Minor quibbles for a really special house.

We had a great time at our stay here. The location is beautiful in the mountains and the amenities were great. Great place to stay when visiting Asheville area. The drive up from Asheville is about 30 minutes.

Fantastic Family Mountain Getaway
Beautiful, unique home at the top of private, gated mountain community. Home was immaculate inside and out. Stunning views. Lots of privacy. And, plenty of entertainment for the rainy, cold days - shuffleboard, pool table, ping pong, board games, puzzles. Thank you for a great stay!

Loved the property! Check in process was smooth and house was clean when we arrived. We stayed for a week and it was the most relaxing experience. House is very spacious and has a full kitchen. Best memories of this place are sitting on the deck and enjoying the views with coffee every morning and doing the same with a drink sitting in the hot tub at night! We will definitely be back!

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Skytop Chalet. The house was amazing and had plenty of room for all. The game room and extra space in the basement was very well appointed. The views and the deck space outside were such a positive. The neighborhood is very close to Black Mountain and about 30 minutes or so from Asheville. Overall, we would definitely stay in the home again and can’t wait for our next stay!!

Thank you for your five-star review of Skytop Chalet, Robert! We're thrilled that you and your family had such an exceptional experience and that you enjoyed the fantastic amenities, gorgeous mountain views, and convenient access to activities in both Black Mountain and Asheville. We appreciate you choosing us, and we look forward to hosting you again soon.
What a beautiful home and property! The drive in and out of the community was breathtaking! Directions to the property were clear and the home was as described. Everything you could possibly need was stocked and included. We had a small issue the first night and it was immediately taken care it by the owner. We will definitely be back next fall for another visit!
When we pulled up to the house, it looked just like the pictures. Absolutely stunning location. The inside of the house lived up to all expectations. We were two families traveling together with teenaged boys. The house was perfect. It had the amenities to keep all of us busy and plenty of space to spread out. We could not have been happier with our choice.
Also, the house was immaculate. The entire rental process was smooth and went off without a hitch!
