The house was a great set up unfortunately we couldn't use the downstairs bedroom because the air conditioner system was super loud. It vibrated through all 3 levels. I called first thing sunday am we checked in saturday night tried to trouble shoot the problem. They were very responsive. We were only there two nights so made 4-5 phone calls super time consuming. We turned air conditioning system off because we were afraid it was damaging system. Later they blamed me for turning off when we were trying to prevent system from being damaged. The person i spoke to sunday am listened to sound on phone said that's not normal. We didn't expect they could get someone in to fix on a sunday. Where my issue is in this situation is how they handled it after we checked out. I spent a lot of money we couldn't have anyone in one of the four bedrooms and it was super time consuming for a two night stay they wouldn't compensate in any way for our two night stay except to give 20% off on next stay i won't ever use any house they manage. It's a shame we are home owners in Montreat so I could have given this house repeat business. This management company is not doing their client a good service. We understand problems happen in house but it's how they handle poor customer service

I regret that I rented this place Labor Day weekend...it was a horrific/horrible experience. 1 - Driveway damaged my car ... the check-in instructions say to "stay to the right" and that "your tires will spin"... I was fine with that warning, but my Audi A6 front spoiler scraped horribly and needs repair. A guest had a Subaru and it scraped as well. Property manager and owner new this (see other reviews) but did not warn me. 2 - Door code didn't work; we had a key from lockbox but only one so me an my guests all had to share one key. Told management company first night, but they never came out to fix. 3 - VERY loud noise coming from utility room that renders lower bedrooms unusable... trust me you won't sleep it's so loud. Told management company but they didn't even investigate. 4 - Hot tub was gross --- really yellow / wasn't cleaned so we couldn't use. Management company didn't resolve. 5 - Very poorly maintained property. Nails sticking up on deck , grill didn't work properly, firewood was soaked/rotten/didn't burn, light bulbs out, running toilet, pool table was missing a ball, etc. etc. Yonder is management company and did not communicate with me during my stay.....we were completely on our own. Post trip, Yonder didn't engage to help but referred me to their attorney. Now I need to spend time on legal dispute. Urgh.... Trust me, move on to other properties and stay away from any managed by Yonder.

The house was lovely. Clean & spacious. We enjoyed the hot tub & fire pit. One issue was that we could not find it because the 108 is not clearly displayed. The other issue was the drive way. Very very steep!! My friends car could not make it & she had to leave it at the bottom.

This is a wonderful house with a terrible driveway. Its not just steep.... We had to walk up because our cars would bottom out... only drivers stayed in the vehicles. Other than that ,it was a great house.

It's a great house in a perfect location. Plenty of space and a lot of amenities. We liked the game room, hot tub, and the outstanding views. The driveway is steep, but after the first time, we didn't have any trouble in our small AWD SUV. Tip: Drive up the hill a little past the house and then turn around to get a little momentum to help you up the driveway. Also, Black Mountain and Montreat are great little towns with several places to explore.

Great place for group of friends to hang out and catch up. Spent time hanging on the porches and around the fire pit. Highly recommend.

We were satisfied with all aspects of the property with the exception of the driveway. We read in advance the reviews that commented on the difficulty of the driveway access. As a result we rented a SUV to deal with the problem. Even with that the driveway was a real challenge. We believe the descriptions of the driveway issue do not adequately disclose the severity of the problem. It took four attempts to get past the bottom of the driveway, the first three of which resulted in the front of the SUV getting hung up on the slope. The suggestion that you approach the climb by swinging wide to the right was unhelpful, as there is now a pothole on that side of the drive that makes it almost impossible. When we finally got past the bottom of the drive, we lost traction a number of times during the climb -- even on dry pavement. This happened with all three vehicles our group had. All our four couples reached the same conclusion that despite the other benefits of the property we would never choose to rent there again. As a final note, we could NOT have accessed the property had we driven our regular car (a Prius), and we can't imagine that the drive is passable after any snow or maybe even a hard rain.

Let me start by saying how beautiful the house is. The rooms are spacious, the views are spectacular. The level on the ground floor smelled a little musty, but i overlooked that. What I never imagined was how difficult it would be to get up into the house. We are, according to residents of Montreat, flat landers and we have no experience in how to navigate mountain roads. The instructions did state that the wheels would spin but that it was normal. What they should say is that a four wheel drive car would be required. Also, getting up there at night was scary. I have a pregnant daughter in law that I was concerned about and begged her to close her eyes and trust that we would make it up the driveway. Again, I must reiterate that the property is gorgeous, but I learned that in the future I need to do research before renting another mountain home.

This is a beautiful house with incredible views and tons of amenities. Unfortunately, this is tempered by a terrible driveway that our vehicles could barely get up and by a somewhat awkward layout for groups. I would absolutely rent this house again for my family or a group of 4 couples.

Bedrooms and bathrooms are great! Seating and dining arrangements were uncomfortable Kitchen is poorly stocked with utensils, etc for cooking Driveway was scary but manageable. Overall a good place to stay for a small er group.

Loved the location and seclusion high up. Driveway is steep-you will want a 4 wheel drive vehicle that is raised up otherwise you can scrape on the way down. Quick trip into Black Mountain and to Asheville proper. Good size great room for the entire family to hang out

The house was great but that was overshadowed by the fact that all of us, even the ones in trucks in small SUVs scraped their front and back bumpers BADLY and scraped the bottom of our vehicles every time we came and went via the driveway. We will not rent here again because our brand new minivan now has horrible damage to the front and back bumpers. This should be disclosed to renters and I highly discourage anti one from renting here until this is fixed.

We had a great stay, the house had a perfect lay out for 2 families and friends. The kids enjoyed the basement and pool table. The adults enjoyed the wonderful windows /view in the living room. The location was convenient to all destinations and in a cute little town. Only issue we had was no firewood for fire pit or fireplace, and the utensil drawers in kitchen won’t open, and One evening we ran out of hot water. We also enjoyed the fact that this place had good supply of cleaning and essential products that we could use. Over all we would gladly come back and stay at this lovely place.

A beautiful home, just as expected, and a wonderful family getaway.

The perfect place for a couples getaway. We loved the open living area and gorgeous views. The hot tub and game room were great for some fun down time. The style and decor was cozy and trendy and the home had everything we needed. We will definitely be back!

The property was a great fit for our Bachelorette weekend! Normal check-in is 4pm but the hosts were so gracious to give us access at 2pm instead so that we could set up and decorate to surprise the bride for when she arrived. The property was more than enough spacious for 9 people, and very clean. We especially enjoyed the incredible views of the mountains (sunrise is a treat from this property), the open floor plan and ample seating for hanging out, the hot tub, and the peaceful stay of the Montreat area in general. I'd definitely recommend for a group looking to have a peacful, restful stay in the mountains!

Had a great time. Enjoyed fire pit and hot tub. Comfortable firm beds.

House was great for family with kids & had a beautiful view. Love the location & setting. But not a 5-star experience. House decor average and somewhat shabby chic. Poorly stocked with mix matched & disorganized kitchen supplies. (Example-/not enough utensils for 20 people to dine...). The driveway was beyond challenging and realistically accommodates only 3 cars. There are no places to park at bottom of drive & cars scrape as they descend unless they are large SUV’s. We had a great time but we were disappointed in the house & woii I ld not rent it again.

I would recommend this property to others. The location was perfect, being close to outdoor activities, as well as city amenities at Black Mountain, and not far from Asheville. The house was very clean and provided enough space for our group of eleven people. It also included many activities to entertain everyone at night, such as a pool table, ping pong, games, a hot tub, a fire pit, and an impressive TV with a vivid picture. The house was everything we’d hoped for. We had such a great time using this house as a base for our vacation.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views, lovely home and convenient location. As many others have stated, it’s a steep driveway. We had no issues with it though and managed without issues.
