Worked very well for us as we attended a nearby conference.

Close but secluded. Rustic yet modern. Close to trails and bears but feels safe. Games and huge movie selection. Lovely

We loved our week in the little blue house! It was perfect for our family with excellent space and everything we needed in the kitchen and living areas to feel at home (great cooking tools, games, and more!) The porch is perfect for enjoying a morning cup of coffee, ice cream with friends, or doing a little work. This will stay at the top of our list for our next Montreat visit!

Enjoyed this property in Montreat!

This was a beautiful house with plenty of room!! The surrounding area is very nice and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

A wonderful place to enjoy the peace of Montreat. Bill is a wonderful host.

Such a beautiful location!! We loved staying here. The house had everything we needed. The kitchen was super well stocked for cooking. Plenty of beds for multiple families and all of our kids. Loved it here! Upstairs - 2 bedrooms (2 queens; 1 queen, 1 twin), 1 bath Main floor - Kitchen, dining area, living room, laundry, 1/2 bath, master suite (1 king, full bath) Basement - 2 bedrooms (1 twin bunk bed; 1 king), full bath, sitting area (futon) Outside deck with seating

We have stayed in many homes in Montreat over the past 50 years and this was the best house we have stayed in. It felt like it was designed just for us! We loved cooking food together in the fully-appointed kitchen and eating and playing games at the dining room table. The basement is comfortably finished with it’s own family room. It was great for us, as a three-generation family, because everyone had a space to themselves. There were lots of games and movies. We also loved waking up in the morning with a cup of coffee while sitting on the back porch swing and listening to the birds. It’s a short walk to several trailheads. Wonderful home! We hope to come back year after year!

Our time at this home was absolutely fantastic. I agree with the other reviews that the pictures don't do this place justice. It was perfect for our family get together. There was a master bedroom on the ground floor for those who have problems with stairs, there was a basement suite for one couple, and rooms upstairs for the rest of the family. The owner was proactive in seeing to our needs. Our family loved hiking the trail that was right outside our door. We were close enough to town to visit easily, or we could just remain at home and spend a wonderful day in the mountains.

The house was conveniently located to everything we wanted to do. It has everything we needed for our stay.

It started snowing the evening we arrived, great. The next morning we woke up to a blanket of snow and it continued all throughout the day. We wished we could have used the fireplace but we understood it's probably about safety. There were "tons" of puzzles to put together(we completed 3/500pcs, dvds, vhs, boardgames, books, etc I normally bring the items on our outings. We left most of stuff in the bags. Nicely designed interior. We were able to view kitchen area from dining table. Only one issue if you difficulty walking be extra careful a slight downhill gravel incline from parking to the house. I'm a shaky leg grand and I made it. Overall we like being close to lake susan you could walk there and you didn't need a fishing license at this time the lake hadn't been stocked in 2 years. The babbling brook in the backyard, the kiddies were hiking and exploring regularly. Didn't do any fishing because of weather all the grands are 6 and younger didn't want them getting ill. Lake tomahawk was near, all was enjoyable. Will is an excellent host they really made it a homey place.. may try another visit in future, God willing.

The house was just as described, very cute house in a nice little town. The ow

We really enjoyed our stay at your home. It was one of the best homes we have rented in Montreat and will look at staying there in the future.

We enjoyed our stay. The property was perfectly appointed. We had everything we needed. We had more than enough space for our family of 5. The location was perfect for hiking. We could even walk from our property to nearby trails. The owner was very kind and responsive.

Thanksgiving in the mountains--it doesn't get much better. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. The house fit us perfectly for sleeping, although the kitchen is a bit tight, so we took turns😊. I liked that there are no TVs in them bedrooms! No T-Mobile phone service, but that was just fine with me. The kids had WiFi for their various devices.

It was a beautiful spot to stay for amazing fall colors , close to town but quietly tucked away for privacy plenty of room for our whole family to relax

Property was as described. Great location. Owner was great. Family real enjoyed property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Montreat. The home was very clean and well-appointed. Bill was extremely responsive and we’d love to visit again soon!

3rd time staying at this house, we just love it!

3rd time staying at this house, we just love it!

We spent this Christmas with our children in beautiful Montreat! The house was very spacious and kitchen well equipped for the holiday cooking. We enjoyed the nearby trails, and viewing the mountains from the deck. Especially appreciated the history of the property. 🇺🇸

This is our second time staying at this house and we just absolutely love it. The location is secluded but close enough to everything you need. We hope to make this an annual trip!

Everything was A+. Hope to stay there again.

The house is stocked with anything you can imagine. From 100's of VHS's movies to puzzles and board games. My husband and I came up for a workshop in the area and in the evenings were pretty mentally wore out so we laid around watch movies from our childhood and some we weren't allowed to watch as children. It was actually pretty fun. If you love to run this is a great area. Drivers around here are used to watching for people so it was very relaxing. Also don't miss going to the ten thousand villages store right up the road. Amazing store! Beautiful area we didn't get out a bunch since we weren't home. The beds were comfortable, TV upstairs worked greats, Kitchen completely stocked we ate out a lot since we weren't really here but you could easily never eat out if your staying here. If you have a large group it has a ton of beds and two kitchens areas. Although I didn't really check out the downstairs kitchen we mostly stayed on the top floor.

This house is wonderful and the location is absolutely amazing. This is a perfect location for people who want to really get away. The location is in walking distance to a great trailhead and many creeks and sights. You are within a few minutes drive to downtown black mountain which is a slow relaxing paced little town. The house has so much room and is so comfortable. We enjoyed the back porch and watching chipmunks run around and enjoying the variety of birds. A sweet surprise was that you can actually hear the creek from the house, which adds to the relaxation factor. The owners were easy and great to work with, they truly care about your visit. We will definitely rent here again. We loved it so much!!

I don’t know what else to say but I loved the experience and would do it again. The house was great, location great.

The house is huge. We arrived separately from the rest of our party, and neither of us realized there was yet another floor to divide up! The house is set up like a home- but we were not worried about breakables or misplacing things as it is very orderly. The porch was a DELIGHTFUL place to eat and enjoy the sounds of the creek. This may sound odd- but the fact that there were 3 stories allowed for us to choose whether we wanted to sleep with windows open or not, without wasting AC. The description is missing one thing that might make it more enticing however. There IS A PATH that leads from the back door out to the main road (graybeard), allowing you to walk to Montreat without having to go all the way down and back on the road. It cuts off 3/4 mile of travel to sweet Montreat! We filled our days with hikes from the doorway, crafting clay in Montreat, Clubs for the kids and cooking meals in the fully-stocked kitchen. Wonderful week. CANNOT wait to go back next year!
