My wife and I loved our stay at Woodpecker's Hollow.
We loved sitting on the deck on the rocking chairs and relaxing in the comfortable living room.
It was perfect for the two of us.
The town of Black Mountain is just a mile away, groceries are even closer, there is wonderful hiking surrounding nearby Montreat, it is a short walk to great food and drink in "downtown Cheshire Village," and downtown Asheville with all the great food, microbreweries, shops, and entertainment is just a short trip away.
Please keep in mind that it is perfectly described in the details in the contract - there is one bathroom in the master bedroom downstairs, there was some road noise during the day, you need to take all your belongings and supplies up a dirt path to the cabin, and that for more than two people you better be really good friends :-). These are all things that were perfectly fine with us.
We even extended our stay at Woodpecker's Hollow. Unfortunately, we did not receive responses to our multiple inquiries from Carolina Mornings through VRBO's message system for information on extending our stay, but a good ole fashioned telephone call took care of everything. (They said they left a voicemail after my first message inquiry which we never received and they did not respond to subsequent messages). Regardless, I would rent through Carolina Mornings again without hesitation.
We have already recommended this property to friends and we would love to return to ourselves.
