About this apartment rental
Our private cabin in the woods is in a secluded, mountainous community. It shares a little over an acre of land with our primary residence, wild turkeys, foxes, deer, and an occasional bear. Just minutes from downtown Asheville, the famous Biltmore Estate, Grove Park Inn, Black Mountain, and many other fine places.
Asheville is sophisticated, classy, and fun, with a vast array of restaurants, craft breweries, yoga studios, music venues, schools and other attractions. You're also very close to the spectacularly scenic Blue Ridge Parkway and other places of rare natural beauty, with dozens of hiking, jogging and mountain biking trails along rivers, lakes and creeks.
This split-level studio cabin is exceptionally comfortable for 2-3 people, with a queen-sized bed and futon upstairs in a common area, and a full bath and kitchenette downstairs. There is no stove top but a refrigerator, microwave, instant pot, and electric grill are available for your use. There's a lovely screened-in porch with porch swing, and a hammock is ready for your relaxation under the trees.
We provide quality amenities such as snacks, bagels w/cream cheese, soaps, linens, towels, a hair dryer, electric grill, instant pot, crock pot, microwave, dishes and silverware, keurig, books, games, first aid items, blankets and reliable Wi-Fi connection. If you need to do laundry, our washing machine and dryer are available for a small fee. Upon arriving please note there are numerous steps down to the cabin.
And unlike other cabin rentals, ours really does have hot water for your shower and bath. You can easily see this is your sweet home away from home.

What a gem this little cabin was. Our favorite part was the screened in porch with the swing and lights! We were only there for 2 nights, but enjoyed our stay. The cabin was just 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, which is such a neat city to explore. Leslie was a great host!

I have to say this stay had everything we expected and more, including hair dryer, snacks, coffee and even a carton of half and half in the fridge (my favorite). The hosts were very hospitable and the cabin was a dream! So quiet and lovely! We even saw a bear! What a treat. Next visit to Asheville we will stay here again.

Wonderful!
Leslie was the perfect host! The cabin was adorable, and she really thought out the smallest things, like having snacks in the fridge when you arrive. The view was so pretty! I can’t wait to visit here again!

Great location, Exceptional Convenience, and Beautiful Views
Our stay in Asheville was very enjoyable and a big portion of what made it so great was the location and convenience Leslie and her cabin provided to us. The cabin location is central making easy to frequent the downtown and surrounding areas often However, it is also far enough so that you get a taste of the nature and beauty the mountains of Asheville have to offer. It is no more than 20 mins to all the main attractions of Asheville. The owner of the cabin is easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating. We had water, bagels, and even beer waiting for us in the fridge when we checked in. The Wildlife can be viewed comfortably from the screened porch, which we did often over some morning coffee. I highly recommend this listing and you will feel relax and comfortable knowing you have everything you would need from this cabin.

A cozy nest
Leslie gave detailed instructions for finding the cabin and checked on us daily to be sure we had everything we needed. The cabin was close to nature in a quiet neighborhood but close to restaurants, shopping, hiking, and other activities.

LOVELY Hosts and Beautiful Private Cabin
Leslie and her husband are two of the kindest people you'll ever meet. We truly loved them from the start! It was like having new family for a weekend (They respected our privacy but were always available for any need, big or small). The cabin was beautiful and rustic, a truly relaxing sort of "treehouse" in the woods. Private and great location. Lovely!!!

Wonderful little cabin in the woods!
Stayed for two nights with my boyfriend, place was very peaceful & quaint. Hosts were easy to contact & very helpful. I didn’t realize that’s the cabin was just a few steps from the hosts home but that was no issue. Came in handy when we needed a plunger LOL

Perfect cabin on the mountain side.
My wife and I stayed here for a couple nights and had an absolute blast. Convenient location that’s close to everything, yet still offers complete privacy. Leslie showed tremendous hospitality and we can’t thank her enough. We will definitely stay again.

This place is a gem 💎
This was our first trip since the pandemic, but this place met my high cleanliness standards. We loved the location and the ambiance of the cabin and property. Leslie had the cabin well-stocked with various snacks and amenities. We would definitely stay here again if in Asheville. Of all the properties I considered for our stay, I’m so glad I went with this one.

Cozy cabin
Our short stay was a wonderfully relaxing experience. The cabin was close to all the amenities we needed, but private enough to feel away from it all. Leslie was a gracious host and made sure to make us feel welcome. (Make sure to follow her directions though, as Google does not know heads from tails in that area!)

Great spot for a quick trip!
We had a wonderful stay! The futon and bed both sleep very comfortably. The heat works great and the water heated quickly as well. Very cute place to stay if you plan on exploring Asheville for most of the day, and relaxing at night! As others have said, there are many steps to get down to the cabin, so pack lightly.

Very peaceful and relaxing. Close drive to Asheville and surrounding trails and waterfalls. Just a note if you have problems with steps you should know there are alot of steps to get to and from cabin. Leslie and her husband were very nice and welcoming.

Sweet little cabin in the woods
All the sparkling reviews are true! Cozy space, well appointed, clean, thoughtful hosts., fabulous porch and swing, easy access to Black Mountain and Asheville, great blend of private oasis in a beautiful mountain neighborhood with great streets for good, walks....Really, the only downside was the tough adjustment to everyday life after staying in such a wondrous place.

Charming Cabin
Lesleys’s little cabin, tucked up into a wooded hillside, was the perfect base for our visit to the Asheville area. We enjoyed the quiet and the convenience of the property. The screened in porch with twinkling lights was the perfect place to rest after a long day hiking the nearby Blue Ridge or visiting the River Arts District.
The cabin was clean and well appointed. Thankful for the thoughtful/ plentiful snacks provided by our hosts.
We saw a young bear not far from the cabin on our first morning out after we arrived! It was the perfect way to start our week!
It was a terrific place to stay for those who want a private, rustic but very comfortable accommodation. Not easily accessible though for elderly or those who may have trouble climbing stairs.
Thank you, Lesley. We will be back!

Quiet cabin retreat
We stayed in this cabin during our recent trip to Asheville and have a WONDERFUL experience. The cabin was clean and comfortable and the screened porch is such a treat. We enjoyed coffee there each morning. It was an easy drive from the cabin to the city of Asheville where we enjoyed kayaking and wonderful food. Leslie was an amazing host, welcoming us and offering suggestions for things to do in the area. The cabin was well stocked with supplies and Leslie even provided snacks and drinks for us to enjoy. It was a wonderful visit!

Cozy cabin with a lovely hostess
This is a lovely little cabin tucked away on the side of a mountain near Asheville, NC. The cabin is in great shape, is outfitted thoroughly, and is in a beautiful location. A highlight for us was the screen porch on which you feel like you're right in the woods. The hostess is warm and communicates excellently. We've stayed at many VRBOs across the country and this cabin is among the nicest we've stayed at.

Nice cabin in wooded setting
Very nice setting on hill side below main house on tree covered slope.
The screen porch and swing are pleasant and best I'm sure in warmer times. There is a large single room with queen bed, futon and small table.
The bathroom and kitchette are down interior steps which are a bit steep.
The hosts are very pleasant and engaging people who are helpful. The steps from the parking go down hill to the cabin and it is many steps down and up so don't take a large heavy bag. All in all we enjoyed it and would come again. It is perfect for couple or individual.

DEE-LIGHTFUL!
Leslie and her husband were so welcoming. I felt right at home in the lovely cabin. Leslie checked in with me every day to see if I needed anything which was incredibly thoughtful of her. Thank you Leslie! Thank you Adeep.
