Black Mtn Cabin, 8 Acres, Hot Tub + Creek Trail, 30 min Asheville, Dog Friendly

Asheville mountain cabin on 8 private acres, 30 minutes from downtown Asheville and Biltmore, 20 from Black Mountain. Soak in the hot tub under the trees, do s'mores at the fire pit, and follow your own wooded trail down to the creek. Dogs run free in a huge fenced pasture. Sleeps 6 in real beds plus a loft pull-out. A backup generator keeps the lights, heat, and water on if the mountain loses power. Fall color now, skiing and sledding within 90 minutes in winter.

This unique, modern cabin is packed with thoughtful details! Dog-friendly with a huge fenced pasture, plus tons of fun for kids—tent beds, a property scavenger hunt, and games. Enjoy the stocked kitchen and the quiet seclusion (on 8 acres!) that still puts you less than 20 mins from downtown Black Mountain and 30 mins from Asheville. Spread out in multiple living areas, relax in the hot tub, or follow the short private peaceful wooded hiking trail on the property down to the mountain creek.

“Words cannot capture the true beauty of the house and its surroundings; even photos fall short.” – Kerri

Enjoy all the unique spaces: enjoy s’mores at the fire pit, a soak in the hot tub, or pile onto the oversized loft sofa and enjoy a movie on the projector in the loft.

Inside, the upstairs king bedroom also includes two charming, cozy tent themed beds kids love. The upstairs loft sofa folds out to a queen. The main level's bedroom has an adjustable queen bed. Two full bathrooms and a washer/dryer make week-long stays simple. Fast internet keeps streaming and remote work easy.
Moonlight has something most cabins don’t: a backup generator. If the power goes out (a reality in the mountains) the lights, heat and water won't, so you can keep relaxing.

The open kitchen is a standout: Cook and bake with All-Clad cookware, a KitchenAid mixer, sharp knives, pantry basics, and thoughtful extras. “The kitchen had everything we needed for a big family dinner—it felt like cooking at home."

Families enjoy puzzles, books, and board games inside, yard games outside, the Moonlight Explorer nature game, and a property-wide scavenger hunt. The cabin also has kid-friendly cups, plates and custom Moonlight coloring books and placemats to keep them entertained!

Dogs are always welcome to join the adventure! The huge fenced pasture gives them safe room to run (**please message for more info) and we provide bowls, blankets, as well as a bed and toys on request. *Please let us know how many pups are coming along. Due to severe owner allergies, cats are not permitted.

Location
Asheville is 30 minutes away: the Biltmore Estate, the art scene, breweries, and dining. Downtown Black Mountain is under 20 minutes for shops, live music, and restaurants. Chimney Rock State Park and Lake Lure, both reopened, are about 40 minutes. Popular hikes like Catawba Falls and Lookout Trail are an easy drive.

“Come, enjoy what feels like your own private mountain. You won’t regret it!” – Stephanie

Important Details
Accessing a mountain retreat means navigating a mountain road. Moonlight sits at the end of a 1.5-mile gravel road. It’s well-maintained but narrow (one lane) in spots, so take your time.
AWD or 4WD is required during Nov-Feb due to snow/ice possibility.

Why Else You’ll Love Moonlight
*Room for Everyone: Multiple living areas and couches, cozy porches, and hidden nooks provide plenty of space for each guest to find their own space.
*Blissful Sleeping Arrangements: Sink into luxurious Tuft + Needle mattresses.
*A record player for music lovers.
*Streaming TVs in the living room and bedrooms for binge-worthy moments.
