This is our second stay at this home. The views are spectacular, and the home is comfy and well appointed. Perfect outdoor space for your pup that is fenced in and has a fun fire pit. Beds are very comfy! Nice proximity to Asheville.

Summer trip with my daughter

The place was excellent! Everything we needed was there, comfortable beds, tv easy to use, ample kitchen supplies. Small fenced back yard and close to downtown Asheville and black mountain. We felt very safe there and will be back. Dog friendly, even had doggie poop bags, not many places are as accommodating as this place

Excellent location!

House was very neat and clean. Owners provided great little thoughtful extras that made the stay feel welcoming and home like. The king size beds in both rooms made it extra desirable. Very cozy, comfortable and easy to be there. Good location. Quiet with beautiful walking area by property. Would definitely stay here again.

This property was one of the best we’ve ever stayed in. The hosts were very accommodating and were in constant communication with us. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this cabin to anyone who may be interested in staying in the Old Fort area. The host replied to every message I sent very quickly and took excellent care of us.

Secluded and Cozy

This is a quiet home about 3 miles from the center of Old Fort. Very comfy, with all modern amenities. Heat, shower pressure, etc. all work great. I wouldn't recommend the backyard for much playing, etc. it needs some work. But the neighborhood has plenty of outdoor space to stretch your legs.

Peaceful !

What a perfect place to relax and sleep comfortably after hitting the sights and shops around Asheville!! The two king beds, which are hard to find when renting, were extremely comfortable with soft bed linens! So very clean and stocked with necessities. Thank you!

Perfect mountain hideaway

We loved our week at this precious cabin! Tucked away on a quiet road but just a few minutes into town, close to hikes, breweries, and nature! Comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, plenty of extra blankets and towels, and the living spaces are much more spacious than pictures might suggest. Hosts are responsive and kind! Will be back!

Lovely Cabin

We enjoyed our short stay! The cabin was very clean and well equipped. My parents were staying at the Buck Creek RV Park for the week about 20 minutes away, and this was a nice place for our family to crash after spending time with them. Beds were comfortable. Access was simple and the host was easy to communicate with. They even had coffee, which is often advertised but rarely present! We would stay again.

Great place to stay

The location of this home was a 30 min drive to all the locations we went to. It was clean. The owner left k-cup coffee which was a nice unexpected perk. Would definitely recommend this place.

Loved this place...

We had a wonderful stay. The home had everything we needed, king size beds, 2 baths, screened in porch and a fenced in area for our pet. The owner really has thought of everything for you. the fenced in area even had poop bags and extra lighting. Beautiful flowers in the front little yard. It was a perfect spot for a small family or couple. We will absolutely stay again if the need arises for us to be in the area.

Great stay, very clean and cute!

The house was very clean with cute decorations and many amenities. Derrick reached out a few days in advance with directions making it easy for us. We brought our pups and they loved the backyard, just wish there was a light in the back so we could see them a bit better at night. Great location as well in a quiet area with beautiful views.

Friends Getaway

Loved the house. It had everything we needed. Enjoyed the porches and loved the view. It was close to all the cute towns that had plenty to do. There are also a couple of breweries in the town of Old Fort. The only downside was that the towels in guest bathroom were sour before use. They had other towels to swap them out with and everything was fine after that. Really was a great place!

Immensely enjoyed 3 nights in luxurious living!

Spent 3 perfect nights in Stardust Retreat! The owners had thought about everything and we all enjoyed it all. They even have toys for our beagles to play with! We cook all our meals when we do cabin trips, and everything we needed was right there. We didn't even have to search for what we needed, because there is a list showing the location for everything. Sunset was beautiful right out the front door! Definitely recommended!

Old Fort

This is a cute well kept, updated house. It has a nice screened in porch which my cat really enjoyed. The neighborhood was quiet. The house is near Old Fort center with easy access to I-40. With 3 adults, we could have used more dishes and towels. All of us were quite comfortable.
