Phenomenal views from the house decks. So very nice to eat meals on the deck either first thing in the AM or as the sun was setting. Claudia was great, answering any questions we had. The house was even better than the pictures showed. Just a great place to come back too after a day of hiking to waterfall, whitewater rafting, or Mt. biking!!!

My husband and I vacation with my daughters family which included three grandchildren. It was such an enjoyable and memorable time. Brevard is a quaint beautiful town and its proximity to Pisgah national forest allowed for many activities. We did not have one single boring day. The house was extremely comfortable, very neat and conveniently located with beautiful views. There is a steep incline to the house but if you have the right vehicle it isn’t a problem.

4WD/AWD a must to get to house even before getting to driveway, thankful that is in description! Home was incredibly comfortable for our 5 adult kids, each couple had their own floor of house + dogs. Views are spectacular from both sides of home! Thankful for my able-bodied husband who was able to move a tree to side of road that fell on way to house. It's important to realize that house is remote, but incredibly worth experiencing the beauty of Transylvania County! We couldn't get enough of the waterfalls, downtown Brevard, Ashville & icecream @ Dolly's. Grilled some meals at house as well. Shout out to "Twin Peaks" for an awesome stay!

Close to everything, absolutely most beautiful view! Home is amazing. Found a hole in the wall restaurant, Th Back Porch….five stars to them as well! Amazing food! Thanks Leland and Claudia for sharing your home! You were incredibly pleasant to meet and so helpful.

Always a favorite place to stay for the family, close to the Dupont Forest and with spectacular sunsets.

Our family spent a delightful Thanksgiving week at this spacious lodge. The house boasts amazing views and 3 floors with excellent bedrooms and superb bathrooms. We cooked a full Thanksgiving meal in the kitchen, played games on the wraparound porches, and enjoyed the many televisions and additional comforts. It boasts the biggest shower we have ever seen! (4 wheel drive not optional!)

We really enjoyed our stay. The driveway is as steep as noted, but we had no issues in our 4WD vehicle. The house was exactly as described. We went with our 4 adult children (and our dogs) and enjoyed having the two separate common areas. The house was spacious and well appointed. The views from the porches are gorgeous!

The house is great and it’s close to awesome hiking and walking trails.

This is a beautiful home with amazing views of the mountains. Claudia is a wonderful host and very attentive to anything you may need. Very clean and comfortable. Lots of stairs....I do not recommend it for small children or older adults who have a hard time with stairs. Everything about the driveway is true.....but the views are worth it!

We enjoyed our stay. The house is quiet and comfortable, Claudia is easy to work with and the views are beautiful. Even with the July heat, we enjoyed breakfasts and dinners on the north deck. We loved watching sunrises, sunsets, and the night sky. We hiked, fished, went to the Biltmore House, and toured Brevard. It is a great location and wonderful home. We hope to return and have already recommended it to friends.

Great property and very gracious hosts.

Hands down, this is an amazing property. The views are spectacular, and the location is so convenient to a wide range of activities. The entire family commented the day after we returned from the trip that they wished they were back, and I don't think that's ever happened before! The mountain lodge was our home base for a variety of activities, including hiking, waterfall visits, hanging out river-side, shopping, visiting brew-pubs, and eating out. It is 10-15 minutes drive from Brevard, where there are great shops, restaurants, and cultural activities. Pisgah National Forest is just north of Brevard and has amazing fly fishing, hiking, and waterfalls. Reece Place Falls is a couple of miles down East Fork Road, and Gorges State Park outside Sapphire is about as wild as it gets. The house is well provisioned. We had a family member cook us a four-star restaurant quality, six-course meal in the kitchen with space for everyone, We had 4WD and AWD vehicles and both got up the driveway just fine. We didn't try the other car, but parking spaces were fine at the bottom of the hill. Can't recommend enough!

Couldn’t have asked for better views! Property owners were very accommodating. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet retreat!

Absolutely love this place! Great property, spacious, bright and very comfortable. The views are beautiful, staying here was both relaxing and fun. There was great trail biking for our boys in Dupont Forest along with waterfalls and hiking, all of which is right on your doorstep. We also enjoyed going further afield to the Blue Ridge Parkway. I went horseback riding at Pisgah Forest Stables with my daughter and we both had a great time, reasonable price and very friendly. Brevard is great for ice creams and wondering around, lovely restaurants. Claudia is a wonderful host and very helpful, had a lovelyl week and will miss the mountain views!!

This home was outfitted well our group of 8 adults. We had rainy weather so stayed in and cooked a lot and the kitchen was well stocked, rooms were spacious and dining room table sat our group so we were pleased. The climb to the house was something and we were glad we had our 4 WD vehicles but had no trouble. Claudia and Co. were great hosts!

Upon arriving at Twin Peaks on Bow Mountain we immediately in awe of the near 360 degree views from the property which basically sits on top of its very own peak. The lot was huge and allowed us to enjoy ourselves in nature without even leaving- this was an extra bonus because it rained the majority of our stay- The house is very close to DuPont which is one of our favorite places- lots of trails and beautiful lakes. The house is also located near Cedar Mountian- this small "town" has a great farm stand and grocery called "whistle stop". we did much of our shopping here- wine and beer is also available here. Great local and organic items. We also enjoyed visiting the Canteen in cedar mountian which has a nice bier garden and was a great place to unwind with our pups after a day on the trails- We have stayed in Brevard 6x before - but this property was literally the "top" of them all- we plan on coming back in the summer!

Getting to the property does require a 4WD or an AWD vehicle. The gravel roads going up to the property can be a bit confusing especially since there is no cell signal. A word of advice - download ur map before u leave Brevard/ Hendersonville/ Greenville, whichever route you'll be driving, or before leaving ur home, and you'll have no problem finding it. I also took screenshots from Google Earth of all the turns and sent those to my son who arrived at the house before we did and he had no trouble finding it. There is some construction on a cottage being built next to the house but the noise was tolerable with a pr of headphones while sitting outside. The cottage is near completion though so the noise is mostly from the inside of that structure. With all that said PLEASE don't let those minor things keep u from this house! If u love mountain views and want to get away and relax, you have the right property! Bring ur binoculars! You can clearly see the Pisgah Inn and a nice little chunk of the Parkway right from the living room, and don't forget to catch at least 1 sunrise (I recommend catching them all) from the North deck, I promise nature will not disappoint! I grew up in Brevard (only 6.5 mi away) and I've never seen such vibrant hues of fiery oranges, purples, reds & blues, nor felt the emotions that I felt watching the sun rise over the horizon. This property & house are perfect in every way and I definitely plan to stay there again! ** I write a lot of reviews. As a rule, I keep emotions out of my reviews and only report facts, then give my opinion on whether or not I had a good experience. Obviously, this property had an affect on me...😏 If you choose to stay here, my wish for you is that it gives you the same or more. Rental dates: 09/18 - 09/26/21

Great mountain retreat. Beautiful views.

Nice private location!

This house is very comfortable and perfectly designed for several families. It is very close to a llarge number of walking trails of varying difficulty. The lovely town of Brevard is nearby and has plenty to do. We had a delightful stay with our grown children and their respective partners.

The owners are very polite and the property was the cleanest I have stayed in. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. The property is within an hour of a lot of great water fun such as sliding rock and skinny dip falls. The views are spectacular. Although the driveway is steep as the description states, it isnt something that anyone familiar with mountain driving should ahve an issue with so long as they have a 4wd like the owners say you should have. My family and I will definately look forward to staying here again.

Property was fully appointed with all the necessities plus all the bonuses. Views are unrivaled. Owner is available 24/7. Exactly as described. Yes, you need 4-wheel drive.

This home was located in beautiful private spot in the Brevard Mountains with awesome views. The home has beautiful layout inside and my kids had fun playing the games provided. It’s a short distance to down town Brevard. The owners were quickly responsive to any needs or questions. Home was stocked with all the things you may need in kitchen and bathrooms. I would definitely stay there again!

Amazing house and mountain views! Perfect place for family to gather for granddaughter's High School Graduation weekend. Of course, all the guys loved the challenge of the steep driveway! Hoping to stay there again!

We had a great time riding bicycles all over the area. Nothing better than sitting on the deck after a long ride with a Dales Pale Ale.

This three-story home sits on top of a mountain with 360° views! It’s perfectly clean and is well stocked with everything you need. We stayed for a week and did a lot of mountain biking and hiking. It’s a 10 minute drive into Brevard as it takes time to get up and down the mountains. There is an extremely steep and long driveway that is not for the faint of heart but the view at the top is worth it. Communication with the owner was excellent. I highly recommend it.

Great house, fantastic views, and owners are extremely kind and attentive.

Really enjoyed our stay at the top of the mountain. Beautiful views. Short trips to hiking and Brevard and Asheville. Good owner communication and assistance. New home with great amenities. 4 wheel drive needed to access. Thanks Claudia.

We stayed with a family of six for 3 weeks in Dec. The house was very clean, comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. All the appliances worked great as well as the heat and fireplace. Claudia and Leland were wonderful and very helpful. They were quick to respond and great hosts. The views from the house are tremendous...best we've seen in the Carolinas. Wrap around porch for outstanding 360 views. The location is also perfectly secluded but not too far from Brevard for shopping. The only minor things others may want to consider is the driveway and internet. The driveway is pretty well maintained but long and very steep. Highly recommend a 4WD. We made it in a 2WD car but didn't use it every day. The internet is DSL and caps out at 5-7 Mbps. Tough for video calls or multiple connections, but it could be done. But given the remote location and the fact it's a vacation home it hardly detracts from the overall experience. Overall 5-stars and we highly recommend this location. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

We use the property for our annual Thanksgiving family reunion with our two sons wives and grandkids. The house was perfect with four bedrooms and great bathrooms, and open floor plan on the main level. The home has two nice decks with great views.

The house is way beyond what the pictures show. It has a commanding, 360 degree, penthouse-style view of its surrounding world. You can watch sunrise and sundown from the same spot, in or out of the house. The view is dizzying and breathtaking. Every room in the main living space on the second floor has large windows, so there are spectacular vistas wherever you look. The wrap-around deck outside the second floor offers even better sight lines, plus lots of recliners to sit in to enjoy the endless vistas. Star watching is easy: just look up, the remote location means there is no ambient background light to wash out the view of the crisp night sky, jam-packed with stars. The room interiors are all natural wood and knotty pine, wi-fi is strong, the kitchen is well appointed and well stocked. I can’t think of a single thing that needs to be done to make this place better. It is easy to get to the Blue Ridge Parkway, national and state parks, and Brevard (which has a nice farmers market on Saturdays). As their advertisement states, it is accessible only by 4-wheel drive vehicles. They are not kidding. Access is seemingly straight up the last 1/3 mile, over a very rocky, windy, one lane drive. We navigated both up and down the driveway in first gear, with 4 wheel drive engaged, going slowly, and gingerly steering around the more imposing adjacent rocks and boulders. It was worth the challenge. (There is a parking spot at the bottom of the drive for others, but it is a hike up the driveway.)
