Great pre-stay communication with owners and self check-in was a breeze. Great facility and convenient to Brevard, Hendersonville, DuPont State Forest and Pisgah National Forest. The rental is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay (whether you eat in or go to one of the many nearby excellent restaurants) and everyone, including the horses, was very friendly. Could not have had a more relaxing week.

Fantastic accommodations and hospitality was provided by hosts Bambi and Rex and the resident doggies and beautiful horses added some of our entertainment! The apartment was perfect for our family gathering to celebrate Thanksgiving and everyone mentioned how comfortable the beds were and how relaxing and fun their visit was. Nearby shopping, hiking and coffee shops provided something for everyone! Thanks for all the goodies; the grands enjoyed them a lot!! If we plan another get together, we will definitely book with you again.

Stay at the horse ranch

Great hosts, location, and property. HostsBambi and Pete could not have been nicer or more accommodating . Beautiful unique setting where horses were boarded and trained. Our 2 golden retrievers enjoyed playing with the resident boarder collie, Finnegan. Our grand daughter was able to pet and brush one of the horses of one of the boarders. Convenient location to hiking, rodeos,waterfalls, parks, Breweries and restaurants . Would like to visit again sometime.

Wonderful property built above a barn. Soaring ceilings, well furnished, very comfortable, meticulously clean, great deck, wonderful views all in a spectacular location near Brevard, Asheville, and Hendersonville and all the great outdoor amenities and shopping in the area. Owners were wonderful as well with great and lightning fast communications. Lots of really nice touches in the property. Everything you need for a great and comfortable stay.

Better than expected!

This was our first time visiting North Carolina and we couldn't have been happier with the property. The place is better than the pictures portray and was very cozy. Kitchen had all we needed plus some. They even provided a few extras such as snacks, sugar, half n half and some condiments like ketchup and mustard. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to this part of North Carolina.

Unique in a Good Way

This apartment was unique, charming, comfortable, and very clean. It was bigger than I expected. It was peaceful and quiet. But the view from the balcony was the big winner! Horses and pastures all around. We even enjoyed the resident dogs, tuxedo cat, and some deer that wandered into one of the pastures. The owners were delightful to talk to. I only wish we had stayed in more to watch the horses but our schedule was full with sights to see and things to do.

To all who may stumble across this great place to enjoy horses and the beauty of the NC country side’. Pete was there for everything we asked for. The linens/blankets were are very high quality. We enjoyed the front deck and watching the horses work out and farrier work! Run there!

This property is a 12/10!! Even better than the pictures. So spacious. Calm and quiet and serene. We had our 3 and 4 year old and felt comfortable and safe here. The family loved the horses and we were only about 20 mins to the waterfalls. The hosts were phenomenal. We will love to come back someday.
