Great rustic family cabin

Wonderful cabin in the woods outside Asheville. The owners were super nice and helpful. Only downside was it’s quite dark, but you’re in the middle of the woods, so I guess expected, and the water temperature is hard to control. Otherwise , the owners did everything to make us comfortable and the hot tub was great. Many great family memories during our stay there.

Super Nice and Convenient Cabin!

My family enjoyed our recent stay at this wonderful cabin. We have 2 teenage children so the parents slept in the loft. Our daughter enjoyed the reading space in the loft and our son enjoyed having multiple places to sit and relax. Both enjoyed the hot tub. Everything we needed was provided and it was a memorable stay. The cabin was convenient to the Parkway, the Biltmore, and all the shopping that the boys could tolerate.

Cozy winter cabin close to Asheville

We stayed here for one week when it was very cold in NC, but the cabin was warm and cozy. We enjoyed a fire in the wood stove (plenty of firewood and fire-starter is provided) while sitting at the big table with our coffee looking out at the trees and mountains in the distance. The cabin is equipped with a landline phone, wifi, and a big tv with all the cable channels, so we felt very safe, entertained, and not lacking anything. We especially enjoyed the loft bedroom, which is like sleeping in a tree house with all the windows. The beds are comfortable with thick comforters, nice towels in the two baths, and it's very clean. We liked the big leather sofas for watching tv. It is convenient to shopping, groceries and good restaurants nearby, though it is not a difficult drive into Asheville. For nearby activities, we recommend the Folk Art Center, which is off the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the Nature Center, which is a zoo with local wildlife. The owners are very nice and easy to deal with. We recommend this house for anyone visiting the Asheville area.

The PERFECT Property! No reason to go gem mining, you've found it here!!!

When my husband and I decided to spend our vacation in Asheville, I did a huge amount of homework looking for the right property because we had a very poor experience once before with a rental not meeting the expectations set forth in the description. The photos in the listing looked beautiful, but we had a few questions. Within 30 minutes of submitting our questions, we had an answer from Birgit. The overall impression was a good one, so we booked. To say that we were pleased when we arrived would be an understatement. This property was everything we had hoped for and SO much more! The location is PRIME!!! Although you feel like you have your own little piece of the woods, you are in a gorgeous little neighborhood on Buffalo Mountain. You are 15 minutes to a main highway to take you anywhere you need to go, you are 15 minutes to downtown Asheville, 10 minutes from the Asheville Mall and the Whole Foods market and 20 minutes to the Biltmore Village. The cabin itself is beautiful, cozy and meticulously stocked and maintained. From the minute that we entered to find a lovely note and a bottle of chardonnay welcoming us for our stay, we knew that we had made the right decision. The cabin was decorated to make it feel warm and inviting in every room. From the chalkboard on the kitchen wall with a handwritten welcome note, to candles in every room for nighttime ambiance, to the firefly twinkle lights in the upstairs "treehouse" bedroom, there was nothing overlooked. The entertainment center in the living room is stocked with dozens of movies and provided us quite a few nights of good viewing, the hot tub on the porch is fantastic and immaculately clean; there is even a closet full of board games. My only suggestion would be to maybe think about adding a small wall mounted tv in the ground level bedroom with the king sized bed. There is a tv in the upstairs bedroom (which seems to be intended as the master, but there is only room for a queen sized bed here, so we stayed downstairs.) Beyond that though, there is not a single thing that I would do differently. This truly felt like our home away from home. We are already looking at our calendar to book for next year. Thank you Birgit for making this one of the most unforgettable vacations that we have ever taken!!!

Asheville cabin

Excellent location, good kitchen, prep and beds. Peaceful wooded neighborhood. Concern, downstairs bathroom plumbing backed up immediately and needs cleaning out. Trees on property need vines cut back at base, they are killing the trees which provide shade and privacy.

Girls weekend

Spent the weekend in the Asheville area and this house was a great location for all our travels. Plenty of room for the 4 of us and all the conveniences we needed. Emails with the owner were promptly answered and very friendly. Would definitely stay again.

Awesome Asheville!!

We had a party of 6 people and the property was spot on and in a very relaxing area. Quiet and a great deck to have morning coffee on. The only thing to consider is the driveway is very steep and if you have more than three cars parking could be difficult.

great rustic cabin

Great location, wonderful space, beautiful views! It was uphill but all paved and accessible (this was summer, so no snow). We loved sitting on the deck for coffee or a glass of wine at night under the trees. Thank you!

Mountain Retreat

We loved this little cabin in the mountains! It worked perfectly for our group of 5 (2 couples and one baby). The location was great - remote enough to enjoy the tranquility of the mountains, but still only a 15-20 minute drive to all that Asheville has to offer. It was great coming home from a day of hiking or exploring the city to soak in the hot tub and enjoy the large deck. We had one minor issue with setting off the water sensors, but the host got back to me fairly quickly and it was an easy enough problem to resolve. All in all a great spot and we would happily stay again!

A perfect stay

This has always been a dream of my husband to stay in the woods and in a log type cabin! This was just perfect. The owners included everything you would ever want. The views are picturesque and the home truly is a home!! Loved every minute we stayed there and would recommend it to anyone wanting some woods time!

Beautiful Cabin-Great Location

We absolutely loved our stay here. Plenty of room for both families; spacious hot tub; stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of board games and puzzles. So close to town yet far enough away to feel secluded. Slope Creek area hiking minutes away. Would love to stay here next time we're in the area. Excellent and responsive hosts. Thanks for the housewarming gift :)

We have stayed in many beautiful, cozy cabins, but this was definitely one of our favorites. Beautiful views from all the windows and hot tub. Loved fenced in back yard where dog could run around. Would definitely stay here again if back in Ashville.

Wonderful Anniversary Week

My wife and I stayed at the Tony and Birgit’s cabin to celebrate our anniversary. The cabin was everything described and more, and it was great being able to bring our dogs with us on the trip. The cabin is located in a great community that is secluded and private but at the same time close enough to downtown so it is very easy to get wherever you would want to go. The view from the porch is amazing and the hot tub was perfect. When we wanted to go downtown, we used uber and Lyft and had no issue with either service. Tony and Birgit were very accessible and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and were available to give recommendations. We would definitely recommend staying here and hope to be back soon!

Great cabin

Had a wonderful vacation at buffalo trail. Everything was very clean and even better than it was described. There was even a little fenced in area for our pups to play in which was perfect for us. It was the perfect vacation house for the 4 of us and our two pups. Plenty of room, we stayed downstairs and the other couple with us stayed upstairs so we both had our own bathrooms. About 20 minutes from downtown where we had dinner every night, easy to check out the breweries in the area and close to hiking trails. We definitely recommend this place and will be back if we are in Asheville again!

Relaxing Cabin

We had a wonderful time at this cabin. It was cozy and comfortable. The hot tub was a plus. The house is about 20 minutes from downtown which gives you more of a remote feeling - very quiet and peaceful. We loved that we were able to bring our dogs with us. There’s a fenced back yard and the owners even left out dog bowls for us. The owners reached out during our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. The house was clean and had everything we needed.
