We really enjoyed our stay. The house was as advertised with amazing views and terrific accommodations. The location was an easy drive to the Biltmore and Black Mountain is close and has really good food options. The house was very comfortable and clean and the host was very responsive with all of our questions. Thx so much!

View and deck were wonderful! Best sunset views! The living area is nice for a group but the lighting is terrible. Very dark and hard to play games at the table. There are two fans that can accommodate a light package. This would be helpful. The house has a stale smoke smell when you enter, especially the downstairs room. Kitchen is well equipped, but small. Hot tub was perfect and had a great view. We never located beach towels for the hot tub. The house is at the top of the mountain and still very close to town. We used the grill, which was nice. We found it very hard to regulate the temp in the house. There were times we needed AC and times we needed heat. We were never able to get cool air in the main floor bedroom. Overall the house is what we needed and we enjoyed it.

The home has an amazing view, with a comfortable living room including a great gas fireplace, plenty of comfortable seating, a great deck and a hot tub. The location is amazing and the entire house is very clean. The bedrooms are more comparable to that of a three star hotel. There is not central Air. As a frequent renter, I would want to know ahead of time that the bedrooms/bathrooms are not Luxury. That being said, we had a fabulous time and loved all of the common areas.

Private with amazing views on 2 levels.
We thoroughly enjoyed this property! We ended up not cooking but the kitchen was well supplied. Overlook is an accurate name for this house as the entirety of Black Mountain can be seen from the deck.
