Luxe Pond-Front Cabin w/ Fire Pit + Biltmore Pass | Pet-Friendly Escape

Serenade Shores tops the list of best rental homes in the North Carolina mountains with a wide, covered deck overlooking a private fishing pond and two primary-bedroom suites with king-size beds. Located halfway between Hendersonville and Brevard, NC, this mountain hideaway offers you the rare opportunity to enjoy a private pond at your own pace. Begin your exploration at Serenade Shores which allows for limitless activities that center around the water - a warm weather picnic, an evening stroll to the fire pit by the waterfall, and a late-night bonfire in the clearing. Enjoy the sounds of wildlife right outside, including bullfrogs and songbirds that will keep you company as you walk along the wooded path. Discover the shady bench that is ideal for fishing with a friend. Catch the vibrant foliage in the fall, and in the winter you can see the French Broad River in the distance.


The home's interior is bright and relaxing with a central gathering area that is great for planning your Smoky Mountain adventures. Everyone will want to pull up a rocking chair and take in the scenery at sunset. Spend a quiet evening at home with your favorite meal, then snuggle in the fireside and watch a movie. You will sleep well on your vacation with the sounds of the waterfall just outside your window. The open loft area provides additional sleeping space with a queen bed and sleeper sofa. Slow down and appreciate the beauty of Western North Carolina at Serenade Shores!


Together with the neighboring rental home Serenade Cove, the property can accommodate small groups of up to 10 guests, perfect for hosting friendly get-togethers and family reunions. This Asheville vacation rental is located in Hendersonville and is approximately 40 minutes from downtown Asheville.

This was just the getaway my husband and I needed! Our dog Bo was welcomed, and he and my husband enjoyed fishing (catch and release) in the beautiful pond (hubby caught several nice-sized bass). The home is well-maintained and looks to be pretty new. It’s stocked with the essentials and is comfortable. We discovered that some lights and outlets in the kitchen weren’t working and reported it to property management immediately; they were responsive and had a member of their maintenance crew out the next morning. He did what he could, but believed it was a bad breaker, so an electrician arrived that afternoon and made the necessary repairs. That aside, this is a beautiful home and we’d happily stay again!
