Listing well represented this property in a private setting. Cannot give it 5 stars as the fireplace was not working, and there was insufficient information in the house regarding internet connection, operation of electronics, etc. House manager was responsive to help.

This place is great! The cabin is exactly as advertised, although the master bathroom might be better than advertised! Great location , close to Asheville and Black Mountain which was a hidden gem as far as we were concerned. Super dog friendly area. - I brought mine and the exploring is great. Just be aware that there are a couple loose dogs running around the larger property, though not typically by this cabin. They are friendly, but just a note for whom that might matter. We would absolutely stay here again.

Our stay was wonderful! The property was beautiful and well managed. The house was comfortable and conveniently located just 5+ride to main road that takes you to charming downtown Black Mountain. Lots of things to do in the immediate area and a short ride to downtown Asheville.

We loved the location on Lake Eden. The Sequoia was a lovely home for a week. However, there were some issues: there was no storage for clothes. I had to live out of my suitcase. Each room needs a closet or bureau. Hangers should be provided in each room. We also had difficulty with phone communications. I was unable to phone or text several people, including my cousin who was planning to visit us from the Winston-Salem area.

This property was the best of both worlds for us: the house was perfectly outfitted with all that we could need to cook and relax in every modern comfort while also being deep in the woods. We walked the trails every day seeing something new! We loved hearing taps from the nearby camp and enjoyed completely unplugging with little to no phone service (just how we like a vacation). The wifi was excellent which allowed us to still connect with friends and family and let them know exactly what they were missing! We loved walking and thinking about all of the Black Mountain artists who also roamed the same area and really enjoyed nearby hikes at Lookout Mountain and Catwba Falls. We can't wait to do this again!

Very quiet place to stay. Close to everything. Lots of fun.

Beds not adequate for six adults. Trundle beds ok for children. Not grown ups. An ironing board was available but no iron. Hand soap available but no bath soap. Clothes rods available but no hangers. Deck furniture rusty and in need of paint. D d had to be replaced when we arrived. Leigh responded to my request very rapidly. The fishing pond is quire a distance from the house which surprised me since the information stated fishing from the house property. True but the property is many acres. I don’t think I would return to this property

This place could have been perfect. However the beds were uncomfortable, the stereo did not work, no TV and the fireplace had a broken part. This place needs some TLC, rotten wood repair and a king size bed.

This property was just what we were looking for! The house was large enough for our family and we loved the eclectic & artistic decor. It was very comfortable and the surrounding retreat property was beautiful and relaxing. The kitchen was missing a few items (large mixing/serving bowls and no blender) but we made it work. The deck was a great place for our morning coffee and then at night we enjoyed making s'mores in the fire circle. The town of Black Mountain was charming and Asheville was a short drive away. We will definitely return to Lake Eden!

A great property at a great location - out of the way but still close to everything. I wanted some place to work from home that wasn't my home and this was perfect. My dog and I walked the property every morning and afternoon and the internet speed allowed me to get my work done during the day. Asheville is 10 minutes away and there are plenty of restaurants and coffee places close by.

Loved this house and location! The house was really cool. What would make this place perfect would be king size beds & larger tv with cable. Otherwise amazing! The location is lovely & black mountain is a great town!

Great location Very clean Beautiful property

Wonderful, relaxing weekend. Enjoyed fishing a couple of times. Black Mountain was an easy drive and had a enjoyable downtown area with great shops and restaurants. Adequate space for our family.

The home is wonderful and the property is fantastic. So beautiful and peaceful. We felt 100 miles away but were only 18 mins from downtown. Our dog loved it!!! One of the best places we have stayed at in Asheville. I would highly recommend. I just cannot say enough great things about it!!

Nice location. Enjoyed jacuzzi tub. The house had a definite mildew smell in places and the hot water did not last in the master bath shower. Eventually gave up on the shower. Enjoyed sitting on the deck.

Close to great hiking and breweries. Loved sitting on the back porch and relaxing with friends. The house itself is very eclectic and cool. I loved it! Finding the cabin itself was a bit difficult. The directions weren’t very clear but the property manager was quick to help out once we called.

As soon as we arrived, the host happen to be working on another property next door. He talked to us about things to do in the area and about the property. The area around the property is huge! Dogs loved the big wide open fields to run. The house is very artsy, which was very cool! A few minor things: tricky to find due to GPS—go past the camp then take your next left and the house was a little musty smelling.

Great experience

Home is nestled in the woods. Very quiet area with beautiful views. The town of Black Mountain is 10 minutes away with great food and stores. Home is well equipped and was very comfortable for the 4 of us. We only spent the weekend there but are all ready to come back to spend a week.

Great architectural design and love of detail. I wish I could have stayed longer!

Just spent a wonderful birthday weekend getaway with my wife at the Sequoia cottage. We lucked out with the weather, mid-fifties and sunny. Great temps for February in the North Carolina mountains. The Lake Eden property is a nice place to get away and relax. Since it was the off season, I believe only one other dwelling was rented for the weekend. Even with more renters, the cabins are spaced out enough and wooded. So there is a good bit of privacy. I selected the Sequoia cottage over the other options. due to the nice big whirlpool tub. My wife loves taking baths. So it was perfect for her to soak in. Another nice touch was the gas fire place insert. That was great to sit in the living room and enjoy the heat and light at night. The dining area off the kitchen was also a highlight. Three walls of windows and french doors opening on to a large deck. Nice mountain views. As for the cottage layout, we stayed in the master suite that was quite large and contained the whirlpool tub and big walk in shower. For just one couple, the house is bigger than needed. It also has smaller, but nicely appointed bedroom down the hallway next to the kitchen. Plus a separate kids room with a trundle bed. There is also a hall bath, off the kitchen and next to the bedrooms. So the house would sleep two set's of couples nicely, without getting in each others way. Or a family with kids.

This is the third time we’ve returned to Sequoia Cottage. We love the beautiful Lake Eden property and Sequioa is the perfect blend of rustic charm with modern amenities. The staff is attentive and thoughtful. We were so delighted to find a basket of wooden instruments left for our daughter to play with, as the staff remembered she loves music. We will continue to return to Sequoia for our family vacations and creative retreats. It’s truly a hidden gem!

Booked two nights bringing relatives in from out of town. We left after one night, the mattresses flat out need replacement. Box springs in the master are disintegrating from moisture. Guest bedroom mattress is like sleeping in a bowl. Not to mention the pest infestation. Yes, this is in the woods but more can be done including a good deep cleaning. This can be a phenomenal property but requires attention. For the price, not what we have come to expect from Homeaway. The pictures are misleading.

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was beautiful among tall trees, rhododendrons and mountain laurels. It was very quiet. We loved the abundance of natural light in all the rooms and the accessibility to the outside. We enjoyed walking down to the lake. The cottage was well equipped for our needs. We had a one-year old with us and we appreciated that there wasn't much babyproofing we needed to do. The only issue we had was the deck railing was definitely not child friendly. With no bottom rail we weren't able to fully enjoy the deck without worrying about our daughter falling over the edge. This wouldn't be an issue for older children or adults as there is a top rail.

Property was serene and pretty. Even though other cabins were nearby, you felt secluded while standing on the back deck. Would book again

Beautiful mountain views, easy to get to, and the staff was super helpful. My dog even made some new friends. Keep doing what you're doing guys.

Very good directions to get there. Very clean and just as promised on arrival. Good location and immediate area is wonderul if you bring your dog. Not a five as kitchen could use a few more items although appliances worked well.

Cooler weather made it an enjoyable visit. Great restaurants and many things to do around the area. Did not look forward to going back to the cabin and clean mice feces every day and being awaken by their noise in the middle of the night. There was a strong humid smell. The kids loved Rusty, the community dog.

The property was beautiful and we enjoyed being able to walk the grounds of Lake Eden and the camp. The house was great and we fully enjoyed the full deck out back. A+ with a massage table in the master bedroom. The only thing we wished was better was figuring out the finicky gas fire.
