Our Own Mountain Oasis

Thank you, Ashley, for providing the perfect Carolina home away from home. Our family of six had plenty of room and plenty of fun. From the hot tub to the pool table to s’mores at the fire pit, we had our own mountain oasis. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. The house was fully stocked with kitchen essentials, toiletries, and more. Sweetwater Lodge with its mountain view and luxury living was our great escape.

Majestic mountain retreat, family togetherness

This turned out to be a beautiful experience. The guidance and quick response to all our questions and concerns by our host, Ashley, made this an unforgettable trip. The house was magnificent and its location ideal for us. It was roomy and exceptionally well outfitted. The one tiny issue we had, locating an item in the house, was promptly and pleasantly responded to. I would, though, recommend some heavy carpeting to alleviate the transmission of noise, from floor to floor, especially in the bedrooms. I would recommend the property overall to anyone looking for a luxurious stay in the North Carolina mountains.

Bday Celebration

Annual birthday trip to mountains. Sweetwater Lodge by far the best house we have stayed in. Perfect size for our group with great amenities. The host Ashley could not have been more friendly and responsive to any questions. The house is absolutely beautiful with a great kitchen and amazing gathering areas. If I could give this house a 10 I would. Our entire group was thrilled with everything inside and out. Terrific location. Thanks for listing this house.

Gorgeous Cabin Get Away

My family and I had the most wonderful week stay at Sweetwater Lodge! We all stayed we’ve never stayed in a rental property that has been so well-appointed and felt so home-y and SO clean. It’s decorated perfectly, has all kinds of modern technology (we LOVED the Sonos system) and amazing amenities. Ashley is amazing at communicating and making sure we had everything we needed. It’s a great location to drive to downtown Asheville.We 100% recommend staying there!

XMAS VACATION

We were lucky enough to find this house after our original house cancelled on us. This house lacks nothing. Ashley was easy to work with and provided more detail about the house and surrounding area then any other property we have dealt with over the years. Convenient to both The Biltmore and The Polar Express. My grandkids tell me we are going back next Christmas. We will see if we can make that work. Definitely a house everyone should consider.

Amazing Property!

Our family of 10 stayed at Sweetwater Lodge for 6 days mid October. It was a wonderful time for us. The property is even better in person than it looks online (which is saying something!). There was plenty of space for all of us and our various life stages, the furnishings and views were gorgeous, lots of touches that made us feel right at home. As we were celebrating a few milestones, the 10 of us being able to sit at one table (the views!) for family meals was so important to us. We had s’mores on our last night and saw wild turkeys and a deer just walked through. Very special place. We highly recommend and can’t wait to return again soon!

Sweetwater Lodge

We spent 4 night at Sweetwater Lodge celebrating my wife's birthday. We were joined by our adult children and 3 grandchildren. This home was perfect for our party of 10. We were close enough to Asheville and the airport but pleasantly removed from the hustle of the city. Great place to unwind and enjoy the beautiful mountains views. This was a re-energizing 4 days. The hosts were great to work with and answered all my questions (and there were plenty) promptly and graciously. Highly recommend this property!!!

Best VRBO ever

The home is gorgeous in a spectacular setting. It has everything one needs. As usual, we took some specialty utensils and pans, but they weren't needed. Ashley is a great communicator and the check in was so easy. We appreciated the information provided in advance and made reservations at Chef's Table in Waynesville. If you like wonderful food in a cozy dining room, don't miss it. Hopefully, we will be able to return to Sweetwater Lodge.

A Beautiful Home in the Mountains

We had a wonderful family reunion at the Sweetwater Lodge just outside Asheville, NC. The house was beautiful and had all the high-end amenities one could possibly need. The kitchen was large and well equipped! The dining room had a very large round table where all nine of us could eat, laugh, play games, and enjoy each other’s company. We all loved the lazy susan in the middle of the table. We have five beautiful days of sunshine and loved the view and the sunsets! The porch is large with a wonderful table that we had fun creating ‘arts & crafts’ together! Many hours were spent enjoying the great pool table and the jacuzzi! One night under the stars we had fun making s’mores. There are large televisions in every room and music can be piped through the entire three level house. Each day the family went on adventures that were located within a 30 – 60 minute drive; of course one was the beautiful gardens at the Biltmore Estates.

This spacious home combines beauty and comfort in its interior and exterior. The huge round table dining with large lazy-susan gave our large family “community”, joy and face to face time together. Whether watching sunsets or playing pool; children with lots of deck time and bubble maker; 1000 piece puzzle jointly accomplished…all of us would like to return to this amazing Sweetwater Lodge!

There were ten of us and the house fit us perfectly. Lots of room for everyone to spread out and get together. Grandkids got to see fireflies for the first time. Also saw a bobcat in the yard. Had a great time exploring the area, Ashville, Black Mountain, Biltmore and even did a walk with llamas at Earthshine Lodge. Property manager was very responsive.

The most responsive host and a gorgeous property

This vacation house for our holiday with family and friends was everything we expected, and more. The house had lovely views of the mountains, and it was equipped with anything we could have wanted. Other than groceries, we didn’t have to buy a thing other than extra paper products! (We were still discovering some of the amenities the day before we left!) The house is convenient to all the Asheville and Waynesville/Maggie Valley attractions, and is designed so that it easily held our entire party of 8 adults and 2 children while still affording us all our privacy. Ashley also provided us with a Pack and Play for our one-year-old! We can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful Family Stay

Sweetwater Lodge was just perfect for our family vacation! Plenty of room, and space for our extended family. The kitchen was beautifully appointed with many added amenities such as Expresso,vita mixer, and large waffle iron which was certainly a hit! Also, a full under counter ice maker, that was in constant use. The grill was exceptionally clean and in beautifull condition as was the Solo stove for evening gathering. The dining table accommodated all of us and the beds were extremely comfortable. We had a bit of bad weather, so the family had many delightful games of pool and the hot tub soaked away the days fun of zip lining, white water rafting, tubing and long walks in the NC Botanical Gardens. Our Host was always accommodating and available 24-7. A truly wonderful vacation rental that we all would recommend and give 5 stars!
