Very well appointed rental. The furnishings were nice, and the kitchen had all of the essentials. The space was overall small, but very comfortable for my husband and our two dogs. Great location, loved our stay at Black Mountain and all the surrounding mountains.
The property was beautiful. Felt like you were in your own little place in the woods while being conveniently located near town and hiking trails. It was wonderful.
This property was perfect for me and my husband. The cabin was very clean and I LOVED the jetted tub. The cabin is in the sweetest neighborhood. The stream was right below our cabin and was so peaceful. We can’t wait to come back!

Woodpeckers Hollow - GROSS!
Not as described on the website. This place was disgusting - floors were sticky and dirty, food between couch cushions, microwave was never cleaned from past guest, paper towel holder was broken, coffee pot had mild/crispy flakes in water tank -had to go buy our own, walls in the entire place were dirty and had spider webs everywhere. Bathroom leaked water all over the floor, shower curtain was a little moldy, pubic hair and dust bunnies on the overhead fan, sink faucet has a nonstop drip. The internet would not work which when called maintenance, their first solution was to “If internet connection is lost sometimes you will see another cabin's ID to latch onto” then wanted to have someone come into our cabin alone to troubleshoot with internet provider. The outside deck on main level was cleaner than the inside of the cabin. This place is nasty!!!
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.
Excellent location, close to Black Mountain and Asheville. Beautiful setting.

My kids and I stayed here for our July 4th weekend. The cabin was cute and cozy. The kids loved it!! The surroundings provided lots of fun trails to walk and we loved the stream out back. We will definitely come back.
If I could provide any feedback it would be that the decks could have been cleaned more. I know they are outside which makes it difficult but they did not appear to have been swept. There was a broom provided but it was in pretty bad shape.
But again, we look forward to returning.
Very cute tiny house/cabin. Had everything we needed and close to many attractions. Only issue, the floor was little dirty. Could not walk on with out socks.

Nice enough
This cabin is very cute but a bit tinier than we expected. The directions make it very hard to find our specific cabin, especially at night. There are several cabins packed in the area and no visible numbers or names from the waking path. You have walk right up to every cabin door to see which cabin is yours. There was another family also wandering the area trying b to find their cabin so this seems to be a common enough issue. This could be fixed by clearer instructions. The cabin itself was clean and the little neighborhood was cute and convenient.
We wanted to go somewhere safe and semi isolated to see Fall color and relax in a different environment! This was perfect! Beautiful trees to look at; easy walks in a gorgeous neighborhood that is just moments away; very close to Black Mountain and Montrete; and easy to get to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Everyone wore masks and provided takeout and we felt completely safe! We spent hours on our balcony and had a fire almost every night. Perfect!

Woodpecker Hollow
Our issue was the outside of the property. Windows need to be cleaned especially deck doors, and both decks were dirty, we cleaned the top deck and did not use the bottom deck. Spider webs everywhere. Cob webs inside also need to be addressed.
We had a great stay. It’s a great location with walking distance to a market, coffee shop, and restaurants.

Beautiful Cabin, Quiet Area
This cabin is small but has everything you need to relax after day trips and long hikes. The finishes and building materials used are all top notch. It’s great that we were allowed to bring our large dog along. There is a stream behind the cabin, which makes for great background noise while enjoying the double decks. The only complaint we had is the dirt trail that leads up to the cabin. It was impossible to keep the kitchen floor clear of mud and grit. The dog had to be washed every single time he went out, which got annoying. I think I swept about 30 times in 3 days.

Everything we hoped for!
Great cabin in a wonderful community! The cabin was beautiful and very clean. We enjoyed the restaurants/shops near by and loved how close we were to Asheville and outdoor adventures. Wonderful family trip!
