House vacation rentals in Buncombe County

This was our fifth year staying at Elevacres. We have so enjoyed each visit. Kevin was, again, a great host. Thank you for everything. We will miss your home as our AVL rental, but can’t argue with you wanting that daily view back. Cheers!

Amanda was an amazing host! She was super helpful with sending recommendations before our trip, and was on top of responses while we were there. She was more than happy to accommodate our needs.

It was lovely, the communications with the manager were perfect and we enjoyed our stay there very much. Linens could use a little refreshing, however.

Very cozy and comfortable home. Black Mountain is a charming small town with great shops and restaurants. Highly recommended. Did not really interact with Evolve beyond the welcome email. I did communicate with the owner a few times who was great. Very friendly and helpful.

Our family is huge so it’s really hard to find a house large enough to host all of us. Daniel’s house was GORGEOUS and so spacious, the photos did not do this place justice. The upstairs was beautiful with large windows that let natural light in. We did encounter a mama bear and her baby, but Daniel warned us every day during our stay to keep trash in and be aware of the bears. We were secured inside the house and got to watch through the windows. It was an amazing experience for the kids. The golf cart was a game changer. We didn’t have to move our vehicles a lot. The amenities were perfect for us and the kids. Two pools, mini golf, and pickleball was all we needed to stay busy the entire weekend. Lake Lure was closed, but that was told to us weeks before the trip. We will definitely come back when Lake Lure opens. 10/10 vacation!!!!!!

Conny was one of the best hosts that we have ever had the pleasure of staying with. The property was above expectation! Our son loved all of the farm animals and we felt great about letting him run around and play on the floors given the cleanliness of the home. Everything in the house was in great condition, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. My family and I will actively seek to stay here again!

Great place, clean, close to town, great accommodation!

Leigh and Brownie were very responsive hosts!

This was our fifth stay at this Airbnb! We love it here and feel like it is our home away from home. It’s close to everything we want to do and the views are beautiful. Daniel is always promptly responsive and was even kind enough to mail home my pillow that I left behind. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved staying in this house - it was so cozy and charming, the fireplace kept us warm, it was a quiet location, super clean. The kitchen had everything and more. Lots of extra linens and towels. And we were pleasantly surprised to find a cabinet full of kids toys, books, and games that our little one was so thrilled about. Perfect spot for a family getaway.

Jenn was attentive and accommodating. She was available for lots of in-the-moment questions and she orchestrated the sweetest welcome signs and treats for me and my kitty! She even allowed a later check out time. I really enjoyed her cozy cottage and would highly recommend!

We were absolutely thrilled with our stay here! The view from the living room is spectacular on its own - not to mention the layout of the home is one of envy. I was taking notes on the tasteful and charming decor. We were lucky enough to be here on an evening when a storm was rolling in. Watching it approach from the porch was so incredibly relaxing. The only downside is there aren't really trails or anything close by, but I think the serenity and privacy you achieve on this property is second-to-none. We will definitely stay here again!

This home was absolutely beautiful! From the cozy decor to the comfortable beds, clean linens/towels, and home—plus the babbling creek right outside! I could not recommend this space more. The location is great if you're looking to be out and away but within a reasonable drive into town/cities (Black Mountain is about 15-20 minutes, Asheville is about 40-45 minutes). Jason and his family were proactive in communication, extremely helpful, and left very clear instructions for their home. As a dog owner, the provided dog towels, blanket cover, and bowls were such a helpful touch that made the stay that much better. Thank you again for a wonderful stay! Major highlights: Very clean, comfortable, cozy, and peaceful.

We had a fabulous stay in this amazing place! We felt right at home and the amenities were top-notch. Everything felt super luxurious and the space was beautiful. What a great experience! Such a fun find!!

Cheryl’s place is such a peaceful little oasis! The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. We loved interacting with Cheryl, her husband, and their farm animals in the morning. It was a great stay and we would definitely come back.

Wonderful place to stay right outside all of the downtown Asheville fun! I will absolutely be staying here anytime I visit the area!

Naren’s place jumped to one of our favorites within hours of arrival. It is clean & thoughtfully designed & decorated. Wrap-around deck is nice & we used the fire pit & grill daily. Kitchen is one of the best we had in functionality & being well stocked with tools for cooks. Loved open floor plan, but spacious enough that the upstairs is its own space if traveling with kids or another couple. The view! ❤️ The “library” is a thoughtful touch with books & games. Truly a relaxing setting. They had one of the most helpful host books I’ve seen. Please DO NOT forget to visit the small businesses that reopened in Marshall (e.g., Zadie’s, Zuma, Mad Co., etc.& shop for food at Madison Natural Foods) then go to supermarket. It’s a wonderful town. Easy drive to Asheville & many other towns. Always take the scenic route when time permits. We will be back! ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at the Canopy House! The sauna was a perfect way to unwind after exploring Asheville, and the saltwater hot tub made for relaxing evening soaks. The house felt tucked away in a quiet, secluded neighborhood, yet was conveniently close to Asheville. The Bela and Spencer were incredibly polite, helpful, and quick to respond to any inquiries and check-in/out was a breeze. Every detail of the home was thoughtfully designed—the décor was truly picturesque. A peaceful retreat with all the right touches!

Great place to stay for a quick weekend in Asheville!

This property is just as it is advertised. There are floor to ceiling windows that capture a stunning view of the mountains or you can sit outside to enjoy them! The house is well equipped, beautifully decorated, and very clean. The beds were very comfortable and there are air conditioning units in each bedroom that can be set separately. The TV can easily hook up to all the major streaming services and the hosts leave an informative instruction book for guests which is really helpful with great recommendations. We lived our time here and would come back again. Our AWD Honda did well getting up the steep drive.

Wow, just wow!! This place is even better than the photos. This place is the perfect place to rest and reboot in nature. Along with all of the things to do on the property, such as the trails and disc golf course, the house is just its own slice of Heaven. The garden area is private and the perfect space for mediating, reading or just listening to all the sounds of nature. We didn’t need music because the sound of rushing water and birds was soothing enough! The house is beautiful and clean, and the attention to detail is just something beyond words. If you have time, definitely read some of the Frank Lloyd Wright books scattered through the house, and it will make you appreciate the house all that much more. A good 20% of the trip was just admiring all of the nooks and crannies within the home, from the copper details, wooden bowls made by Kevin the owner, or the different structured wood beams, it all just makes the home it’s own piece of art. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

Peace on the French Broad ! My first river vacation and this was the right spot. You have to be aware it is in the path of the flood, however the owners have this place looking like it didn’t happen . The interior looks brand new , yard and landscape was awesome, kitchen was fantastic, couch comfy ( I slept my first night there with the windows open) , talk about perfection. You saw the neighbors still dealing with rebuilding , you knew the heartbreak felt by the Community . Visited Marshall to Shop for at the Co-Op, leaving our hearts full of snacks, vitamins and bedding plants. The bench by the riverbank was the best seat in the house. I honestly didn’t eat a single meal inside, the porch was the dining room, great for moon watching . The kid in me watched the train go by- who doesn’t love trains. I would definitely book with Billy again! Thanks again for sharing such a wonderful house!

Black Mountain is one of our absolute favorite places to visit. We had a quick weekend there to look at property in Asheville so we were gone all day. Comfortable and super cute. In a great quiet neighborhood.

The Red Cottage was a great place to stay! We used it for day trips to the Great Smoky Mountain NP and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
