S'more Time at Hidden Creek-Smoky Mountain Escape
Anita is a very responsive and friendly host. The house is very private and cozy. Everything was clean and stocked. Beautiful views on the way to the house and a perfect little creek on property.

A-frame Lakefront Getaway, kayak, private hot tub
awesome place to relax and enjoy peaceful quiet and friendly would definitely recommend

The Cottage at Pine Ridge
Our son has been at Lenoir-Rhyne University for the last 5 years. We stayed at Hilary's a few years ago when visiting and have come back again for his graduation. The first thing we did when booking our trip was to check that Hilary's place was available so we could stay here again. We can't recommend this place enough - it has everything you could need and the area is fantastic.

Watauga River Cottage in Johnson City, TN
I loved staying in the river cottage! Loved the porch by the river and lots to do in the area. The host was very responsive and check in and out was a breeze. Would highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a peaceful getaway!

Destination Keowee
We had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful. A peaceful and relaxing location while close to things to do. The house had everything we needed and more. Lake Keowee is beautiful. We’ll be back!

Creekside Cottage
The cottage was cozy and outside was breathtaking. Outside there’s a little waterfall that’s beautiful and hydrangea bushes in bloom. Everything was amazing. The only we noticed was the hot tub needed to be cleaned (little debris and hair) but we didn’t notice until very late that evening when my husband and I were about to get in (wasn’t a big deal). Everything in the cottage is clean. The cottage is cozy and very affordable. We stayed one night and it was very close to downtown and Great Smoky Mountain Railroad.

Hot Tub+Fire Pit, Mtn Sunsets, Fireplace & Grill!
Really enjoyed our stay. The view and sunsets were spectacular. The beds were extremely comfortable. We really enjoyed the hot tub. Great place!!

Renovated Creekside Cottage in Townsend
My husband and I fully enjoyed our stay! We loved the creek out front. The house was also a short drive to lots of outdoor activities. Perfect spot for us and will definitely book again!

The Cozy Cottage with the Illusion of Seclusion
Wonderful stay. Fabulous deck with fire, nice and high away from any bugs. Clean! Very comfortable bed.

Lakeside Lodge-Not impacted by Hurricanes
We had a quick stay for camp drop off. Very comfortable home and beds. Clear instructions for getting there and staying.

Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway Cottage *Pet Friendly*
We enjoyed our stay in this cute little cabin. We were sad the weather was too cool to enjoy the screened in porch, because it was a cute little area. This cabin was near the end of the road, so it was quiet. There are places close by, but the thick vegetation makes it feel secluded. This was a great place for a holiday weekend, with places to go and restaurants to eat at within an easy distance.

Cozy Creekside Cottage with Skiing & Hiking Nearby
A little tricky getting there as still some road work from Helene, but well worth it. Very quiet other than the stream and nature noises. Great getaway with lots of hiking trails nearby. Everything you need is there, and beds very comfortable

Charm Meets Nature
We enjoyed the quiet getaway. Beautiful Appalachian cabin that was modern and pleasant.

Romantic Mountain Retreat /Creek/Pond/Fishing
Our favorite airbnb of many! Secluded with beautiful creek, large mowed grounds, pond, screened gazebo by creek, big porch facing creek/birds/flowers! Very spacious place With 2 br, 2ba and porches. Could hear creek from inside home and porch. super cozy and felt like home away from home. Hosts were super helpful when we were driving within 9 minutes of the place and got stopped by hurricane damaged railroad track forcing us to turn around with no phone signal or GPS signal. Awesome cookies made a great dinner for us that first night. The home was adorable, uniquely decorated with the host's artistic talents. We highly recommend this affordable paradise and will likely be back!

Quirky & Chill Country Cottage on Cardinal Ridge
Best Air BnB I ever stayed in, deserves more than 5 stars. Very immaculately clean. Location was perfect - 6 mins to downtown and about 15 minutes to amazing hiking. Chad should teach all AirBnB hosts. Coms were superb. He had soft lamp lights on and music when we arrived. The location is so tranquil and safe - loved looking out BR window to see birds and white squirrel at feeder. All amenities very high end. Chad thot of everything - toiletries in case you forgot, reading glasses, books, games, bathrobes, safety kits, rain gear, bug spray, various snacks, dog treats, lots of blankets, flashlights, etc. Coffee/tea bar/frig/bathrooms had all high end and new products - syrups, choc ball, smore kits, cleaning supplies, and firewood. Loved Gus the visiting black lab. The fenced area for a dog was very secure. Internet/cell service great. Loved the bathtub. Chad labeled things for ease of use. Beds very comfortable. Beautiful clean home in a lovely setting. Outstanding !!!

Treetops in North Asheville - Private & Convenient
It was a pleasure to stay at Hilary's home for 2 nights. The location is wonderful; it is an easy 10-15 min drive to downtown but it still feels very secluded. The home was clean, modern, and very spacious for 2 people and a dog! I definitely recommend staying here if you are coming to the area.
Private cottage rentals

Little White Cottage
A very comfortable cottage with vintage decor and beautiful landscaping.

Cabin in the Clouds, Updated April Discounts
My sister and I loved our stay at Cabin in the Clouds! The house was beautiful and the view was amazing. We spent most of our time at the house on the back deck. The furnishings were high end and substantial and the pull out couch was the most comfortable I have slept on. We really appreciated the cleanliness of the cabin, there was no dust or dirt to be found, you could tell whoever cleaned really cared about the house and guest experience.

Experience 5 Star Stay, 24 acre Farm
Jen was a great host! My wife and I stayed in Asheville for the weekend as her birthday gift and we can’t say enough how much we enjoyed the space. The views were great, the screened in back porch was peaceful, and my wife LOVED seeing and talking to the cows!

Lake-house Not far away but you feel like it is.
We absolutely LOVED this cottage on the lake! The view was beautiful, and the kids caught a lot of fish off of the dock! It was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and it had everything we needed. Jack was a great host. Very responsive and hospitable. Already talking about when we can come back!

Lakeside Retreat
Debbie's lakeside retreat was a beautiful home away from home. It was the perfect size for 1-2 people and very well stocked (cooking essentials, grilling supplies, kayaking things, shampoo/conditioner, etc.). We LOVED having access to the lake and hanging out at the water. The area was very quiet and super relaxing. Also, the year round Christmas tree made me feel super cozy. Top tier air bnb.

A beautiful Sunset Cottage
We frequently visit Western North Carolina, best Airbnb for the price thus far. Would love to come back and stay with them again soon!

Secluded Mountain House 20min -> Asheville
Beautiful home, the directions were great. The home is very large, lots of space to cook and play games. Asheville is a pretty easy 20 minute drive away. It rained our entire stay but there were lots of outdoor spaces to sit on the two patios and a fire pit. Very lovely home!

The Happy Red Cabin
Wonderful stay at the happy red cabin! It’s a special place perfect for unwinding and unplugging. The town of Saluda has excellent food and lots of nature around to explore. The cabin is comfortable and clean, also private and quiet. We will definitely return!
