Vacation rentals with a firepit in Highlands

The home was very clean and comfortable and anything we needed was provided. It is quite spacious yet sitting in the living room at night with the gas fireplace turned on was so cozy. Sitting on the back porch was peaceful and serene - total bliss. Gloria is a wonderful host and I would recommend staying here and hope to again.

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb with our family of 10, ranging from a baby to grandparents. The house was meticulously maintained and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing trip. The layout was perfect, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out while still having great common areas for gathering. Every room was beautifully designed, so no one felt like they got the “lesser” room. The views were absolutely incredible, and we loved the added amenities—board games, foosball, a jacuzzi, and a grill. The host was fantastic—super responsive, helpful with local recommendations, and proactive in keeping us informed about a nearby fire. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this home for any group looking for a relaxing and well-equipped retreat!

This little escape reminded me how good it feels to slow down. Whether you’re flying solo, escaping with a partner, or gathering with friends, this cabin is a perfect spot to recharge. I left feeling grounded, refreshed, and already thinking about when I can come back.

This property is stunning. The windows are enchanting and the decor is simple, clean, and modern, but also adorably trendy. You can access incredible hikes nearby and this home is only about 20 minutes from downtown Asheville. One of the most beautiful places I have ever gotten to see, never mind stay in. Also, the host thinks of everything before you get there and is so thorough with directions.

Our stay was terrific...the home is very very nice, plenty of room and great outdoor space to relax and enjoy the surroundings. We walked to town for coffee and really enjoyed our time. While there was one issue, the owner was able to step in and fix it within 2 hours - which we really appreciated. Highly recommend this home to anyone wanting to spend time int he Highlands area.

This cute Airbnb was perfect for our mountain town, book club themed bachelorette weekend. Everything we loved about this place: - Cute cottage core vibes - Open living room perfect for hanging out, book/gift exchange and puzzle - Farmstyle dining table for breakfast/lunch by sunlight for our group of five - Fun bar area downstairs with a chalkboard - Amazingly kept hot tub with privacy fence and automatic string lights on at night - Fire pit in the yard (though we didn’t use it because of the thunderstorms) - Free Little Library right there in the house - Immaculate landscaping with aromatic flowers that smelled heavenly - Close proximity to West Asheville, River Arts District, downtown Asheville, and 45 min drive to Looking Glass Falls/Moore Cove Falls My only regret was not asking if there was more than one bathroom (we found the second bathroom by the front door when we were checking out). The hosts were informative, responsive, and friendly! We enjoyed our stay very much!

It was one of the best vacations I've ever had, a beautiful and complete house, a wonderful and peaceful place, lush landscapes, beautiful waterfalls, I want to go back to the same place in the summer to be able to enjoy the lakes better. I recommend it to everyone.

We had a great overall experience, we always love the waynesville area. The home was clean, organized, and exactly as described. Host was very thorough with instructions and very easy to Interact with. 10/10 would stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at Lynda and Bob's place! The communication was great and the place was easy to find, the surroundings were beautiful and we appreciated the peace and quiet. We came to visit my daughter who lives in Pisgah forest and it was so nice to be close by, we drove to Brevard which is only 10 minutes away. The kitchen was well equipped and super clean, we used the grill one night to make dinner. My favorite room was the master bedroom, with lots of natural light and a little outdoor space to have coffee in the morning. The space was very clean and inviting and there were nice touches in the bathroom, like soaps, extra toothbrush etc We are hoping to come again to visit my daughter and this will definitely be our first choice! Highly recommend!

would stay here again ! lovely location and nice place inside and out

Thank you for having my family and I in your beautiful property. We all felt right at home and were extremely comtortabe. The refreshments were a sweet touch and the veiw is gorgeous! Much appreciation xoxo - Natalie & Family

Beautiful Backyard suite was lovely. And the proximity to Asheville was quite convenient while being out of the bustle of the city. The hot tub (and lots of provided towels) made this location a wonderful choice to relax and soak away stress on a quick weekend getaway from Tennessee.

Great location with walkable things to do. Apartment was clean and comfortable and we felt right at home. Rebecca was a great host and very helpful with a few of my questions during our visit. Will definitely go back!

If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay in a peaceful location close to downtown Franklin, look no further! Up a quaint, winding road, nestled in the trees is a wonderful two bedroom ground level apartment waiting just for you. Once you arrive you will be warmly greeted by your hosts Dave, Barb & Beans who are always available but never intrusive. Their view is wonderful! The property exactly as described. You Can’t ask for more! And I can’t wait to go back!

Un lugar muy tranquilo y bien ubicado todo estaba muy limpio un lugar agradable sin duda nos volveríamos a sopesar en este lugar

Five stars is not enough. Great location, comfortable, all you need is there and if it isn't Sean will make sure it is there in the blink of an eye.

It was really easy to find due to the directions that were given to us before arrival. There was a book on the counter with places people enjoyed going, take out menus, and reviews of local attractions. The space was clean and had everything we needed. It wasn’t as private as some of the others we’ve stayed in but it was a nice area.

My husband and I had a beautiful stay here. Loved everything about it, especially the view. Our stay felt amazing. Communication with our host was top 10. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing views! We enjoyed our stay in Bruce’s private and clean cabin. We appreciated the light breeze and quietness while hanging out on the porch. The cabin was still close enough to town to enjoy the restaurants, breweries and shopping. We were also able to explore other towns in the area with a short drive. Great communication with the host, Bruce.

Roger is an exceptional host, he went above and beyond to assist us when there was an issue with our online booking. Cabin was very clean and had great views. Definitely plan on visiting again!!

We booked a last minute stay for spring break. It was exactly what we were looking for, quiet, peaceful, relaxing, with a little fun for all of us. We loved the creek running right outside the cabin next to the fire pit, made for an extra fun night next to the campfire! The cabin was exactly as described, spacious, clean, and had everything you needed for your stay. We would venture out to hiking trails during the day, then head back in to relax by the fire for the night. Cynthia had tons of suggestions and there was a binder on the table with local places, things to do etc. which made it very helpful.

We read everything explained and didn’t need to contact Michelle about anything. Very thorough with directions on the app and also in the guest book. Thanks for the amazing stay. Just what we needed where we needed it.

Amazing home, amazing host. Ashley went above and beyond. Would definitely stay again.

Went for mini vacation for spring break with wife and our aussiedoodle from April 6 - 9, 2025. Found the cute cabin, we drove past it and when we came back we found it. As soon as we went in, loved the ambiance, the simplicity of the layout, very easy check in and it had all the amenities. What we loved best is listening to the river water flow as soon as we get up and when we go to sleep. Ample place for our dog to run. Saw a number of ground hogs ( I think ) Loved the porch with rocking chairs and also LOVED the hot tub. But what we loved was sitting by the river. The bathrooms were big, very clean. The beds were ok comfy. Creeks a lot :-) . But I have to say kudos to host Tina & GSCR for being very responsive for all our needs. We are sure to come back to this beautiful cabin. Thank you for hosting us.
