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

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO in Arden, NC! The views were absolutely incredible and made the whole trip feel extra special. The hosts were very accommodating and clearly put a lot of thought into making guests feel welcome.The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with everything we needed, which made cooking easy and enjoyable. One of the best parts for us was the great fenced-in area for our dog—it gave us so much peace of mind and made traveling with a pet so much easier. They even provided dog bowls, which was such a thoughtful touch.We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and a dog bone for our pup, which was such a cute and personal detail that really stood out. It’s clear the hosts care about creating a warm and comfortable experience for both guests and their pets.One helpful note for future guests: I’d suggest backing into the driveway when you arrive so pulling out is much easier, especially with the incline. I’d also recommend considering a vehicle with 4-wheel drive, as it can make navigating the drive a little smoother.We would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing Views. We will definitely be back.

An awesome cabin in the mountains. Beautiful views! Hot tub was really nice in the evenings! Beds were comfortable. Host was great! Exactly as described online if not a little better! Will definitely be back!

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!

Great place! Would definitely stay again. Amenities, layout and view were fantastic.The only suggestion would to be increase the lighting in the kitchen and update the toaster oven.

Very nice. Fireplace as the only issue as the pilot light would not stay on. We enjoyed the area alot

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

What an enjoyable location and accommodations! I enjoyed the view, hot tub, saw some neighborhood bears, great place for dogs to travel with you and very clean. I would definitely stay here again if I'm in Asheville. Perfect location for exploring the area.

This is an amazing property that is very well maintained. Amazing views!!! We’ve stayed here twice and it never disappoints. Very special location. Secluded, private and also within walking distance to hiking. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic vacation in this house with our little dog. Super clean, comfy bed, hot tub to relax in and everything we needed was provided, down to a welcome bottle of wine! The views are spectacular. Do make sure you get out on the deck to watch dawn breaking - it was breathtaking every single morning for us. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the birds from the deck and were thrilled at dusk to see small bats emerge and swoop and swirl whilst feeding right in front of us. What a treat! Lastly, the roads up to the house are steep and narrow, but we had no problems getting up there - we just took our time. Watch out for the wild turkeys which were strutting about in the neighborhood though. Likewise, we had no problems getting in and out of the house’s driveway. There was just enough room to turn our Rav 4 around by the house so didn’t need to back our car out. Thank you Birgit for such a lovely house and for your top notch communications with us. We’ll definitely stay here again if we return to the Asheville area.

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!!

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.

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!

We really enjoyed our stay here. Great location to Biltmore, downtown Asheville, and hiking. Lots of food options in the area. Enjoyed the hot tub and mountain views!

My wife, two adult sons, and dog had a wonderful stay in this comfortable, well-appointed cabin. The owners were extremely responsive and welcoming. The view is not to be missed (pictures obviously can’t do it justice). We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We needed to be in Asheville to help our daughter move and had to bring our 2 largish dogs with us. I'm so glad we found this home. The view was amazing and it was so nice to have the dogs welcomed with a dog treat, water bowls and fenced yard. The last mile of the drive was scary in the dark for those of us from the lowcountry. It was better during the day. We did a walmart delivery while we there so the drive is not daunting to the locals-being so close to those conveniences was also a plus. The beds were incredibly comfortable as was the furniture. There was plenty of room in the kitchen for us all to cook together and we had fun playing games at the table. There was even a desk I could work at while being a part of what was going on. A bonus was that everything was accessible-even to the deck and hot tub. Just a few stairs. The owners responded promptly to our questions and were very thoughtful. Excellent stay. Thank you Birgit and Tony.

My family and I stayed here for thanksgiving week and our time at the cabin was absolutely amazing. Clean, cozy, relaxing, a breath of fresh air. The views, the hot tub, the peace and quiet, the cleanliness of the home. Absolutely perfect. I texted the host at one point and told her she would have to come drag me out because i did NOT want to leave. Tons of walking, hiking and biking trails close by. I love that you feel far enough away from civilization, but just a short drive down the hill and you have everything you need. The best vacation wver.

The cabin is great with all the comforts of home. The place was immaculate with plenty of clean towels, dishes and cookware. The view is amazing! The road to the cabin is very steep and narrow, so I would definitely advise arriving during the day. There is a supermarket and several places to eat not far but you do have to drive. Overall, very nice!

great visit
