We were in town for a Dance Competition at Thomas Wolfe Auditorium - This was the perfect place to share with another family. Great Value instead of getting a Hotel room.

Immaculate. Well stocked kitchen. Ample parking. Great shopping and restaurants. A previous guest mentioned "sketchy" neighborhood. Obviously this person never spent time in a small mountain town. My daughter has lived in Black Mountain for several years and we lived in another local town. It's a very nice area; you just can't think it's going to be like a big city or suburb. That's the beauty of these small towns.

Comfortable rooms, nice kitchen, love the deck off of the bedroom. Neighborhood is quiet and the people we met were friendly. Fenced in yard and fire pit were great. We stayed to see the trolls at the arboretum.

Great stay in Black Mountain
My husband and I stayed in this great place for 3 nights and had some friends join us the final night. This house was perfect for our stay. Fully stocked kitchen was great and there was plenty of room all around. The neighborhood felt safe and we walked into town a couple of times. It was about a mile and a lovely walk. Thanks for a great stay!

The town of Black Mountain is so quaint and the people are incredibly nice. So exciting to see things are coming together after the horrific hurricane.Our stay was comfy and we particularly enjoyed having a glass of wine on the upstairs balcony in the evenings.Communication was quick and easy.

Beautiful and Comfortable!
Emily and Ben were fantastic hosts! Everything was exactly as described. The fenced in the backyard was such a welcomed feature and the dogs loved having a space to roam, sniff, and explore! The bed in the master bedroom is super comfortable. Everything was clean and smelled fresh. Overall, such a lovely stay and we can’t wait to return for another visit.
