About this property

Mountaintop Log Cabin-Extraordinary Views! Hot Tub-20 Minutes To Downtown AVL

This log cabin has it all! Awe-inspiring views from the cabin afforded by being near the top of the mountain. Minutes from a multitude of shopping and dining choices in convenient South Asheville, less than 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, 10 minutes from Biltmore Park Mall, 15 minutes from Biltmore Village and the Biltmore Estate. The cabin is situated in a peaceful, well-established community with incredible views and lots of trees providing privacy between the houses which are spaced generously apart from one another. For hiking and nature enthusiasts, a 300 acre nature preserve with walking paths is literally steps away from the cabin. Perfect for families or couples looking to enjoy all the entertainment Asheville has to offer as well as peace, relaxation and inspiring mountain views. Tony and I live 30 minutes north of this cabin so we are always available to address any questions or issues that may come up.

PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS HOUSE FOR A BACHELOR/BACHELORETTE PARTY. THIS IS NOT A PARTY HOUSE AND WE CANNOT HOST GUESTS WITH A SIMILAR TYPE OF CELEBRATION PLANNED.

The wrap around deck overlooks the surrounding woods opening up to incredible valley and long range-mountain views. 6 person hot tub spa with lights situated on the deck for maximum viewing pleasure. The well-equipped kitchen with a center island has all the stainless steel modern appliances: dishwasher, microwave, electric stove/oven, coffee makers (a Keurig AND traditional coffee maker) and basic spices. One level living with 3 bedrooms: the master has a king size log bed, 43" flat screen TV and its own bathroom (bathrooms only have showers, no tubs). Another has a king size bed, and the third has two twin beds with the bathroom in between the 2 secondary bedrooms. All bedrooms have ceiling fans. Only 100% cotton bed and bath linens are provided. The great room has comfy leather furniture, including a sofa and two reclining chairs, a gas stone fireplace, handmade, rustic tables and bench and a 50” flat screen with Netflix. The dining table seats eight comfortably and looks out towards the incredible view. There is a gas fireplace in the great room for those chilly nights and central A/C for those balmy mountain evenings. Charcoal grill, picnic table, high top bistro table, propane fire pit and two person log swing on the deck. Dog friendly (please, no cats), you can bring your pups -up to two for a $75 dog fee. For those who can’t leave the tech world behind, the cabin has reliable WiFi and cell phone service at the cabin is reliable. Please check out our business at Dancing Bear Vacation Rentals of Asheville for more detailed information about our vacation rentals! All of our properties are dog friendly and have fenced in, secure areas for your pups!

Biltmore Park outdoor mall has PF Changs, Luella's BBQ, Brixx Pizza and a number of other popular restaurants and shopping destinations as well as a 15 screen movie theatre.

We stayed at the cabin for 5 days during New Years. It was excellent, everything from communication from the host to the cabin itself. No complaints, if you are in Asheville, you must rent this one. The view is to die for. Close to everything. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you for a great stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the beautiful cabin. The cabin was absolutely immaculate, very comfortable and spacious.. The view from the deck was spectacular. We had our entire family and our puppy and everybody had a great time. We enjoyed hiking Pisgah national force and Cherokee national Forest. It was great to jump in the hot tub and enjoy the mountain views. Tony and Birgit were tremendous host. They had a bottle of wine and a big dog bone, waiting for us when we entered the cabin. So very thoughtful. I would highly recommend to stay at the beautiful cabin. Thanks for a wonderful stayWe enjoyed a memorable family vacation!

This was a perfect house for us to get away to. It's in a great location. The view is fabulous. You can watch the sun rise ever morning. The hosts has everything there you need. Lots of books. Which is perfect because i love to read. They also have games and puzzles. The kitchen is equipped with everything. Including a regular coffee pot and a pod. Everything was comfy and cozy. And we loved the deck with a firepit. The driveway is intially really steep but we got use to it

Excellent stay with wonderful views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Cabin is well-equipped. Has games, puzzles, and extensive library for any rainy days. Convenient to Biltmore, Omni Grove, Arts District, airport, and other key attractions. Recommend Hop-On, Hop-Off tour for good overview of Asheville. Encountered bears twice during two-week stay...once near cabin; no threat...just be smart. Drive to cabin is paved but can be a challenge with narrow roads, blind spots, and steep inclines. Price you pay to get the view!!

Million Dollar Views!

Location is perfect. Feeling of “getting away from it all” while still being close to grocery stores and downtown dining options.The pictures can’t capture how amazing the view is. We had a great stay. Owners were great to work with, and look forward to returning!Only note of warning: the road in and driveway are a bit steep in places so you are better off with an SUV or another vehicle with a bit of clearance. We had a small SUV and were fine though.

Wow! Even more stunning in person!

I initially booked this cabin because of the amazing mountain views, but the views were even more stunning in person! The description was accurate and cabin decor was super cute. The jacuzzi was easy to use and a pleasant way to end our evenings. The cabin was a little ways up the mountain, and driveway a tad steep going downhill, but it was an adventure and we got used to it after the first day. We had no issues during our stay and honestly wouldn’t change a thing. We hope to stay again one day!

My family loved everything about this home! First of all, the views!! Getting to watch the sunrise on the deck, along with sitting on the deck, was my favorite part of the stay. The home was beautifully decorated, and we had everything we needed for a truly comfortable stay. We explored so much of the surrounding areas, including the Great Smoky Mountains, Pisgah National Forest, Biltmore, and downtown Asheville. This beach girl can’t wait to come back and would stay at this home again!

About the host

Hosted by Tony and Birgit DiBartolo

Host profile image
Please check out our business at Dancing Bear Vacation Rentals of Asheville for more detailed information about our vacation rentals!

Our family moved to Asheville in 2016 when Tony retired from the restaurant business. In 2014, we purchased a cabin in NE Asheville so that we could have a place to visit and bring our dogs. We knew that we would have to rent it as a short term rental to be able to afford it. It's has been so successful that since then, we have purchased 5 more vacation rental properties and now devote our time to renting and maintaining those properties. We enjoy the communication with travelers and being able to provide a great place to stay in Asheville that's pet friendly, convenient and reasonably priced. It's important to us that our guests know that we do everything we can to make their vacation memorable. After all, we want you to keep coming back!

Why they chose this property

We purchased the cabin from the only owner it'd ever had-in fact he built it himself. We loved the incredible view and convenience to commerce-restaurants, grocery stores, movie theaters, and just about anything else that you would need within a 5 minute drive. We also liked that the entire drive was all paved-including the driveway. We looked at a lot of properties with views that had gravel driveways or treacherous, unpaved roads and knew that wouldn't work for us. This cabin had it all, including the incredible view!

What makes this property unique

Convenience to restaurants, entertainment, anything you would need within a 5 minute drive. The spectacular view is what sets it apart, as well as ease of access. There is a 300 acre nature preserve and hiking trails within .1 mile.
