Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Pisgah Forest, Transylvania County

We are so lucky to have found this home for our weekend in the mountains to attend a family wedding! The location was perfect and our stay was cozy and just what was needed. Everything was abundant—from towels and linens to fresh air and white squirrels! This is truly a special home with great hosts.

Excellent location! Home was just as described and like photos. Easily walkable to the downtown restaurants, shopping and activities in Waynesville.

If you’re looking for a well-kept, comfortable and peaceful place and property for a family get together, this is a must consider. On top of all the wonderful things Asheville offered being only a few minutes drive, we loved going home to this place and have chill time in the outdoor hot tub. It provided us (even our pup) everything we needed for a restful and fun stay. I highly recommend Anne’s house and won’t hesitate to stay again.

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 extended family of 13 had a peaceful, relaxing, and wonderful stay! The pictures don't do the house/cabin and surrounding property justice. The rope swing, swing, and tire swing were a huge hit with the kids - they were addicted to the rope swing! (Even the teens managed to break away from their tech and play on the creek!) The towels to use for the creek were a nice touch. This location made it really easy to get to Asheville, Black Mountain, and Brevard. It was unanimous that all of us would love to return! It was a much needed retreat and respite for all of us!

This is our family's third stay, and we're a bit biased as we know we will stay here in the future. Ronald and Amy are outstanding hosts prepare for the stay by asking if you have any special requests. There is easy access to an immaculately clean house that is well-stocked with treats. The furniture is comfortable, and with the open layout, conversation throughout the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas is easy. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms are large and clean. The house is easily accessible to downtown and the interstate. It's in a very quiet neighborhood. Lastly, Ronald and Amy check in daily, offering a daily hello and offers of assistance.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful mountain house in Rutherfordton! The views were stunning, the rooms were cozy and well-designed, and the hot tub was the perfect way to relax after a long day. The hosts were incredibly responsive and kind, making everything smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend!

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!

wonderful location, short drive to everything. wonderful hosts, kind and considerate. great price for a great space. I will definitely return.

I stayed in one of Carolyn's other properties and loved it. This one, too, did not disappoint. It is very cute, spacious, with all of the amenities I needed. There are extra touches like some snacks, coffee pods and water bottles. I didn't need it, but there was a dog water bowl, blanket, and some dog treats. The bed was very comfortable. Plenty of sheets and towels. The location includes a view of the lake and easy access to walk around the lake. There are lots of great places to eat and shop in the area. I just loved it and look forward to staying again in June.

Cindi was beyond amazing. Best bnb host ive had. Everything was perfect.

Very comfortable place. Quiet, in a walkable neighborhood. Convenient to everything.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was beautiful, very clean, and came with great amenities that made our trip super comfortable. It was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the area. Angela, our host, was super friendly and made sure we got checked in smoothly. She communicated clearly and was just a text away if we needed anything. Highly recommend staying here!

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

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!

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.

This is the perfect couples getaway! A location that is peaceful and private while still being a quick drive to downtown Asheville. The amenities were lovely; from high-end toiletries to fully-stocked firewood, the hosts made this stay a relaxing dream.

great private getaway. we loved the fire pit and hot tub. I wasn't expecting the fireflies in April, but there were tons. Amazing.

This was such a great spot to stay! The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed eating our meals on the front porch, sitting by the fire pit next to the creek and relaxing in the hot tub. It was of season, but we were able to do whitewater rating nearby. A little bit of a drive to find groceries and restaurants gave a chance to explore the area! I hope to come visit again!

The Lady and I stayed here in May of 23 and loved it so much we decided to come back (engaged this time otw up). We will continue to come back as long as possible and recommend anyone else to do the same. The surrounding woods are gorgeous and peaceful and not too far away from town or any hiking or sights.

Great place to stay. it's clean, comfortable and quiet. Easy check in and check out.

Jon’s cabin was excellent, we had one minor issue but Jon was responsive & considerate & it wasn’t a huge concern to us. We would love to come back again. Beautiful space.

They are so accommodating and incredible. We had a day of cancellation from our airbnb and I reached out last minute to see if we could stay for my birthday. They went out of their way to accept our reservation. They were always in constant communication with us and allowed us two and our pup to share their beautiful space. The location is perfectly close to the lake and near Cashier. The space is nice and quiet, open, and cozy. The hot tub was incredibly relaxing. I cannot impress upon how incredible it was. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
