Lovely Home!

It was a great stay and walking distance to downtown Brevard! It is backed up to a music venue, but the home had earbuds- and the music venue is child-friendly & has great food and drinks! We loved our stay (:

Great Place

A group of 10 of us were in town for a friends wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The house is in a great location and the host was very quick to respond to any inquiries. We definitely plan to book again for our next group trip to the mountains.

Family get together

The house was perfect for our 2 families. It is well-stocked to meet all of your needs and the check in and check out process are simple. As an added bonus, the location is ideal for walking into town for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Great house for extended family visiting for wedding

We loved staying in this house, especially because it backed up to the location where we had a wedding party one night at 185 King. The house had everything we needed and was cute and comfortable. We all enjoyed it!

Perfect house for larger group!

House, furniture and decorating make it a very comfortable place to stay. Spent most of our time outside and everyone enjoyed the large front porch. Plenty of places to eat right around the corner on King Street, whether you are looking for a sit down atmosphere or carry out pizza. Looking forward to renting this one again!!

Guys get away

We had a great time visiting Brevard. The house was home base for three days of mountain biking. Short drive to the Hub bike shop, walkable to downtown restaurants and backs up to cool live music spot. Very easy stay, just what we needed.

Great Place!

I've stayed at the house in the past for drop off/pick-up from summer camp. We rented the house this year with friends. Had a chance to walk around Brevard - the house is located in easy walking distance to dining and bars - that are all great. The house is very clean/easy to check in.

Awesome place in Brevard

The place was awesome. If you are a runner or a biker then this place is for you. The greenway is right across from the house. There is live music behind the house. We spent the nights playing game in the porch and listening to some music. Very close to down town and some great food. If we go back to Brevard we will definitely book this house again.

Brevard Lumberyard district

Home was perfect. Porch was the favorite hang out place. Only concern was all the traffic/cars parked in the lot for the bar behind the house. One driveway Was blocked all day and was tight to fit our 2-3 vehicles. Highly recommend Morning Social for breakfast, just around the corner.

Family Christmas

So nice to be right in town! We loved having breakfast at Morning Social and heading to 185 Kings St in the evening for drinks and music, right out the back door. So many beds and sleeping areas. We live in the country so sleeping with the bright street lights was hard, bring a sleeping masks if you are sensitive to light. Paved walking trail in front for walking, running, biking, skateboarding. Close to shopping. Great place highly, recommend!

Very convenient.

Five stars. Only criticism was that the master bedroom on the back of the house would be a little loud at night from the music hall next door. That said, if you weren’t trying to sleep, it was fun having a music hall next door. Our baby monitors extended far enough that we felt comfortable going to have a drink and catch a show while the kids were asleep.

Convenient and Accommodating

We had a family of 9 and the house was perfect for our needs. The house floor plan was ideal while the home is very comfortable and well stocked with amenities. The kitchen is perfect! The added niceties were much appreciated like local coffee and toiletries throughout each bath. Bedding is very comfortable and home is warm and cozy. The location is perfect with great walking access to restaurants and breweries and shopping including downtown. We had great communication with the property owner/manager. We will return!

Cute place but not conducive to sleep!

While our group of 8 cyclists took advantage of the Brewery next door in the late afternoon/evening, the live music kept us up with the thumping base until 11 PM. Also, very bright lights from the lumberyard next door shine into the rooms. The house itself was updated and clean and perfect for us, and had we been 40 years younger, we would have closed down the Brewery and the noise wouldn’t have been an issue.

Hi - sorry to hear you guys didn’t sleep well! I know sometimes the music from the brewery can be bothersome. I have added ear plugs and noise canceling sound machines to the bedrooms, and will also get some blackout curtains. Thanks for the feedback.

Memorial Day weekend family trip

Our family met in Brevard over Memorial Day weekend for hiking and the white squirrel festival. This house was the perfect size for us. We had plenty of space, the kitchen was nice size, and it was easy walking to downtown. It is located in the backyard of a music venue which was quite loud Friday and Saturday nights. Thankfully we all took sound machines. And the primary bathroom only has a thin window covering. A little disconcerting when it looks out at the music venue. I would suggest adding blinds or a shade to the window.

Great location!

We just spent Thanksgiving here and had a really nice stay. The house is walking distance to downtown which was great. Check in was easy. There is a ton of sleeping - beds everywhere! The house is really cute and the kitchen was stocked nicely for our needs. The downside is the noise from the neighboring live music space. I knew what I was in for based on the reviews I read but it really was hard for me to sleep- from the master bedroom it felt like someone was playing music right in the room. The band was supposed to stop at 11 PM but they didn’t. The gravel parking lot was loud- anytime a car pulled away I could hear it and feel it. Maybe if I was younger this wouldn’t have hit me as hard! Just had to post in case there’s older people in your group - I’d suggest they sleep upstairs- the kids who slept upstairs said they slept great! Overall a lovely stay, despite that small inconvenience!

Absolutely lovely and perfect place for our party to stay. The out of town groomsmen loved everything about their stay. Super ease of access to downtown and the wonderful 185 King Street music venue. We will definitely be renting this place again in the future!! Thank you so much!!
