This was a great place for our extended family to meet up again after the past years covid crisis. We had plenty of rooms and baths, lots of walking trails in the area, and close to a good grocery store. Very nice place.

This home worked fabulously for our family reunion. Outdoor and porch seating great for conversation. Local hiking trails were wonderful. I enjoyed the older home with neat decor. Only downside is that family needs to be comfortable with bathroom sharing.

This house has so much character and a lot of room inside and out. We were a group of 12 but everyone had there own space. We loved the deck and the patio and spent a lot of time in those areas. Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely rent again in the cooler weather, we picked the perfect week for that.

Internet service not very good. There wad a cat on property could not get rid of made some very uncomfortable seems to live there

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Plenty of room for our big family. Lots of towels and linens. Very quiet. The wraparound porch was wonderful for socializing, playing games and eating. We have already booked for next year!!!

Thank you for such a memorable stay. It made my mother’s memorial special and everyone was impressed with the house and mentioned how they lived the space.

This unique 100 year old home property worked well with our family reunion of 4 families with 4 children. Multiple spaces in the house with many bedrooms. There are 4 separate apartments. Comfortable beds and kitchens were stocked with everything we needed. Internet wasn’t working but owners were pro active about troubleshooting. The outside spaces were great with covered porches, fire pit area and play area between circular drive. The area was great for our family. Many hikes when you walk out the door - no driving necessary. Also cute town of Black Mountain close by with shops, restaurants, and Ingles grocery store within 2-3 miles. Montreat has a nice playground also for children.

Birdwood was the perfect spot for a getaway with extended family. Everyone had space to spread out and have their own personal space, but we all come together on the fabulous wrap around porch. I loved the vintage character and the mix of spaces. The ground floor was nice and clean, but not too precious for little kids to run around in without worries. I also appreciate that it came with some toys and books. All the kitchens were well stocked with everything we needed. Bathrooms were clean and cute. The setting of Monteat was just gorgeous and I loved that we could just walk out the door to hop on a variety of trails. I highly recommend Birdwood and Montreat to all!

We were in Black Mountain for a wedding and stayed the weekend with a group of family and friends. What a great house, it added so much to the fun and the adventure of the weekend.

Got together with friends who moved away. This house was so much fun. We hung out on the porches and played card games and visited. It was good old fashioned fun.

Many family members came together to celebrate my son's wedding. The patio and porches were perfect for outdoor dining. We were a little surprised that there was no central a/c. And, since we were there in August, a few rooms stayed uncomfortably warm. We also didn't realize that we would be making all of the beds ourselves. We thought the linen fee included beds being made but we had to make all the beds ourself. We rented the entire place but did not realize that there are 3 separate units, requiring one to go outdoors to get to another part of the rental. I thought that might create challenges since we had children of all different ages going back and forth throughout the weekend, but it actually wasn't that big of a deal. The bathroom door on the main floor unit did not have a lock and after a few people were barged in on, my husband bought and installed a slide lock . The fridge in the main floor unit does not have an ice maker so we bought ice to use for the weekend. There was no large room indoors to congregate so we spent a lot of time outside (which was quite nice). The house has great charm, and the area is beautiful.
