It was a rainy gloomy few days in Brevard a d the home was perfect for us - clean, comfortable and cozy. I initially had a bit of trouble with the fireplace and Stephen patiently walked me through the process. The kitchen was well equipped for those who want to cook, bake etc. And once the sun came out the view out back is beautiful! Also we enjoyed seeing the infamous white squirrels!

Mountain Visit
Our check in was easy..........the property actually is better in person than in the on line photos. We were pleasantly surprised. Location is wonderful-close to three hiking areas. Also, several good restaurants are within a 5 to 10 minute drive. Brevard Music Center is a delight. Kayaking and mountain biking all withing close proximity to the property. The view on the back porch is delightful. Misty cooly morning with the fields and distant hills in the background. All in all a wonderful experience.

Weekend Stay in Brevard
Our stay in Brevard was wonderful! The house was in a perfect location, just 10 minutes away from everything we had planned. It was quiet and offered a secluded feel in the backyard, despite being in a neighborhood. The host communicated well and even allowed us to check in early since we arrived an hour ahead of schedule. The house was charming, fully equipped, and overall clean. The only minor issues were a washcloth with some mold, a bit of mold on the bathroom shower curtain, and noticeable dust on one of the bedroom fans. However, I would definitely stay again at this location!

Lovely stay
We were in Brevard for a wedding at Deerwoode Reserve. It was the perfect location for a weekend of activities at the venue and enjoying our down time exploring all the beautiful waterfalls/hikes and downtown shopping and dining.
The house was comfortable and we enjoyed sitting out on the front porch and backyard viewing local wildlife.. including neighborhood white squirrels!! 🤗
Great place and I would definitely stay there again if we were to return to the area.

Brevard Getaway
Beautiful house and very clean. Modern and quiet neighborhood. Nice view from the deck overlooking a farm. With morning coffee, watched Farmer Joe, and his brothers Dan and Dave (we nicknamed them) do the morning runs hauling hay onto the flat bed trailer. Next morning, we were greeted by the White Squirrel. Found out many in Brevard are white due to a gene mutation! :) Overall, was a wonderful experience.

Wonderful Week
Our stay in Brevard couldn’t have been better! This was our annual “girls” trip with my daughter and my two granddaughters. From the booking to the departure our host was easy to get in touch with and very accommodating. The home has everything you will need for cooking in, sleeping perfectly, entertainment, and was in a great location close to downtown. Shopping is a must along with visiting the Ellaberry Farm and Craig Miller’s Waterfall Tours. When we return to Brevard we will be staying here again! Thank you, Stephen!
