House rentals in Asheville

3 Mile Cabin, 3 miles to Downtown, Hot Tub, Views
This is a great spot for a couple visiting Asheville! It was only 10 minutes away from Asheville downtown and 20-40 minutes to the hikes we did! This place was very clean and the hot tub was a nice touch!

Treehouse / A-Frame
We had a great stay! The house was just like the pictures. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the deck and enjoying the nice weather. Steven was a great host!

Great place to stay. Very clean and in a great location! Darcy was such a great host. Very helpful and responsive. Could not of asked for a better time in Asheville!

Modern Mtn Home - Hot Tub + Firepit + Luxury2
Heather and Bob’s Air BnB was beautiful and private. It was the cleanest place I have stayed in and they provided nice treats for us. The local recommendations were great. The communication from Heather and Bob was perfect. We would definitely stay here again.

Modern Mountain Getaway/ Asheville is Open Again!
This place was perfect! We felt so comfortable and relaxed. It smelled good, looked good and was really clean! The hot tub was easy to use and we took advantage each night the weather allowed. We didn’t want to leave and will absolutely stay again! Graham was very responsive and helpful. We had not a single thing we didn’t like or wished was different. If I could give it 100 stars I would. Oh yes, easy storage to unpack and “live” here for a week!

Cabin rentals in Asheville

Mountain Modern- Blue Ridge Parkway luxury cabin
Sophie had wonderful communication ahead of enduring my stay. The location is very convenient to the grocery store and in getting into downtown Asheville and surrounding areas. The cabin was clean and beautifully decorated and a wonderful place to stay.

17 Degrees North Mountain Cabin
I can't say enough good things about our stay at the 17 Degrees North Mountain Cabin. Everything was just as described and shown in the pictures, perhaps even more beautiful. It's difficult to capture in pictures the sheer size and scope of the mountainous landscape and peaceful sounds of the various birds, livestock, and river. We loved our little romantic getaway along with our dogs, and the fenced area was a massive plus for us. Horses graze right in front near sundown. Fireflies illuminate the fields at night as if the countryside is shimmering. Low-light pollution offers great views of the night sky and stars, especially from the hammock. Catherine was an exceptional host: friendly, responsive, detailed, and very knowledgeable while on the tour she offered, which I suggest you take her up on. I would absolutely recommend this stay. We booked our return trip before the current one had even ended.

Lazy Bear Cabin-Mtn Getaway-Views
Fantastic views, 100% private, homey cabin, hot tub, and comfortable beds. couldn't ask for anything better

Little Hickory Top - Views, Firepit, Close to AVL!
More often than not, rental properties fail to deliver what was promised. This one hit the mark for everything that it promised. Beautiful views and a well-appointed kitchen and bathroom. All basic supplies provided. Clean, neat and uncluttered furnishings, plus everything needed was there and in great working condition. Beds were comfortable. The driveway was an experience, but it added to the adventure in a unique sort of way. Morning coffee and sunset cocktails on the balcony were incredibly wonderful for relaxing.

Cozy Cottage on a Peaceful Sheep Farm
Can't wait to come back! So glad to have found this beautiful gem. It was so peaceful & I loved seeing the sheep. Everything was smooth & clear in communication. One of my favorite parts was the hammock out front & all the cute and wonderful decor. Thank you Ms Sharon ~ we're so grateful !!

Modern lux mountain cabin, 3 miles to town/BR Pkwy
Amazing place! The space is so comfortable and unique. Having 2 bathrooms was a great feature. Being surrounded by woods yet only a quick drive to downtown is the best of both worlds. Would recommend staying here. 10/10

Cedar House + Sauna
The cedar cottage was peaceful and relaxing with maximum care and thoughtfulness in all the details. It's designed to be cozy as if it were someone's own home. Loved listening to the rain on the private back porch and watching birds and wind through the trees from the sauna/cold plunge. Truly restorative - thank you!

Pisgah View Lodge
My family had a wonderful time at this Airbnb. The house gave a worm cozy feel to our amazing weekend. Great location as well!

Upper Little Brother Lodge
The perfect romantic getaway! It seems recently renovated and is gorgeous. There’s lots of windows for natural light, which is perfect for the lovely plants decorating the space. The bed is super comfortable. I noticed quite a few berry bushes around the property, unfortunately we were a little too early in the season to enjoy them. Downtown Asheville is conveniently close. I was very glad that I borrowed an SUV for the trip, some of the mountain roads are rough and I’m not sure if my small car would’ve made it up the mountain.

Jade Tree Place A bit of paradise!
We absolutely LOVED this place. It was so cozy and very welcoming and had everything you could ever need. The property was beautiful and made the start of our honeymoon a dream. Would definitely come back!

Cozy studio in hot West Asheville.
Love this cozy and inviting place. The bed was super comfortable and they had a lot of little extras in case you forgot something! Enjoyed meeting and chatting with the owners and meeting their sweet pets.

Peaceful log cabin near Asheville
It was very peaceful. Loved being out in nature but close enough to the small towns in the area. A lot of places to go for hiking and good restaurants close by

Wooded Sanctuary | 5 Mins to Downtown Asheville
Excellent cozy retreat, close to downtown and secluded

Asheville East Retreat
We had a wonderful stay! Everything was neat and clean, and we instantly felt at home. We loved the view and outdoor space! Very comfortable bed and furniture. Nice location that felt separate from any kind of hustle and bustle, but was still an easy 15-20 minute drive to anywhere we wanted to go. Judy and Vahan were great hosts, and we are already looking towards a future stay!

Imaginarium
I had an amazing time staying here. The bed with the skylight was my favorite feature. Super close to downtown Asheville so going back in forth a few times during the day is very convenient 👌 Have already recommended this place to several friends looking to travel to this area

The Little Red Porch
Bob and Cathy’s little apartment is clean and comfortable. He is a gracious host, interesting to talk to, and their little garden is beautiful. The neighborhood is nice and private and quiet. This is the second time we have stayed here and would definitely stay again!

Your guide to Asheville
Introduction
Tucked into North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is surrounded by old-growth forests, tumbling waterfalls, and a handsome stretch of the Appalachian Trail. But beyond its world-class wilderness, the city is known for its enduring Gilded Age architecture and bluegrass musical traditions, as well as a thriving art scene. And if that’s not enough, have a beer: Asheville boasts a staggering number of craft breweries, many within walking distance of the music venues and art galleries of the up-and-coming South Slope and River Arts districts. These formerly industrial neighborhoods have breathed new life into the city, and are excellent places to hang out in between trips to the mountains.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Asheville
Asheville has a subtropical climate, which means that the summer months are warm and humid while winters are comparatively mild. From June through August, temperatures peak in the mid-to-high 80s, while December through February they range from the high 20s to the high 40s, with occasional snowfall on the city’s surrounding peaks. From March to May and September through early November, Asheville’s temperatures typically hover between the high 50s and the mid-70s, ideal for staying in one of the local cabins and exploring the area’s picturesque wildflower blooms in spring and foliage during fall. However, precipitation is regular throughout the year—so pack accordingly.

Among Asheville’s most prominent landmarks is this 250-room mansion built for George Washington Vanderbilt II during the height of the Gilded Age.

Visitors can tour the historic manor and massive estate, which includes a rose garden, farm, shop-filled village, and an award-winning winery.
The Asheville Urban Trail
This 1.7-mile walking trail pieces together 30 stops around downtown Asheville that celebrate an important person or moment in the city’s history—each marked with a public sculpture. The self-guided tour takes about two hours to complete, and begins at Pack Square Park. Printed maps are available at the information center.
The North Carolina Arboretum
Located about 20 minutes by car from downtown Asheville, these 434 acres of botanically diverse gardens pack in more than 10 miles of pet-friendly hiking trails. The outdoor attraction sits within the Pisgah National Forest, which includes more than half a million acres of wilderness, with forested mountains, whitewater rivers, and photo-worthy waterfalls.
