Great Getaway

Gorgeous, spacious cabin! We were happy to find something that both felt secluded but was also close enough to the city and hiking trails.

Lovely stay in the mountains

Great stay

The cabin was great, the driveway can be scary at first but it's not bad after the first go and everything was very straightforward as long as you read the material in the binder.

Mountain get away yet close to town

Comfortable cabin with amazing hot tub minutes from town. Drive is steep but all wheel drive navigated it fine without any snow. Beautiful views and wood fireplace was perfect. Nice to be able to bring our dog along.

Fantastic mountain getaway!

The house and view are fantastic! We had a mini family reunion there with our family of 5 plus one set of grandparents as well as some local family that came to visit during the days. The space was perfect, back porch and the basement with the game room were the favorite hangouts for the week. Location is great, remote enough to be peaceful but close enough to everything, would highly recommend this property!

Black Mountain Family Time

We loved the Cabin itself and enjoyed all the amenities that came with it. We don't understand why 2 of the smoke detectors were missing? I would hope they would be replaced before the next rental. We all enjoyed the cabin and would definitely stay there again!

Cozy getaway

Overall, we were satisfied with our stay. Pros: wood burning fireplace and wood supply; very spacious; lots of bathrooms; game room. Cons: wasps and dead bugs throughout the inside - contacted the management company on Saturday as I am highly allergic to wasps and they didn't call pest control out until Tuesday and no one ever showed up. Hot tub water was not clean, management company said they would reach out to the owner for part refund and I have not heard back from management company after further inquiry. We were attracted to the remote location, however future renters need to know that the wifi is very slow and minimal. We could connect our phones to it, but not computers. It is not a spot to work from home. The game room could use new ping pong paddles and needs darts for the dart board. The home is beautiful and cozy. It is the perfect getaway for quality screen free family time which is what we were looking for. We enjoyed it, just wish the hot tub would have been working and the pests would have not been an issue, especially for the price.

Sad Situation

The property had three major issues: 1. No Wi-Fi, I was essentially told that it isn’t the property owners issue and they won’t do anything to help. 2. Hot tub was gross and moldy, there were no chemicals in the house to even self service the hot tub, I was offered a refund and it was never given by the owners. 3. The owners didn’t get the last renters trash off the property and a bear destroyed the bear box and damaged my rental car. The owners claimed this was an act of god and would not provide me with the property insurance information. I had to contact VRBO for this information. In short, the property is not as listed and the owners treat you poorly. I asked for a refund since we left the property after the bear attacked. There was garbage all over and the owners were not going to clean it up. The bears would have come back that night and probably started into the house for more food. The owners denied any refund, claiming we should have known the risks of bears attacking and damaging the rental car.

Beautiful home in the woods!

We spent 6 nights at Bair Necessities. The cabin is tucked back in the woods, thru winding roads. The woods are thick around the cabin so there are no mtn views. Short drive to Old Fort or Black Mountain in the opposite direction. Lots of great eating & shopping in Black Mtn. The house is beautiful and lots of room to move around. The basement had a lot of fun games for adults (kids would enjoy too) and the hot tub was awesome to relax in the evening. The only reason I gave it 4 stars for cleanliness was the amount of spider webs that were inside the house and outside too. They were literally everywhere as if the house hadn't had a visitor in months. We cleaned up the webs that were in our way and it didn't stop us from enjoying ourselves!

Cozy Cabin

This cabin exceeded our expectations! There were six of us who stayed here and it was very spacious. There were two peacocks that greeted us on arrival. We loved the big windows which brought in a lot of natural light. The drive to the cabin is quite smooth and the actual driveway is a little steep but we were all able to manage to get up with two wheel drive cars. The cabin was well stocked with firewood which we utilized with the lovely indoor fireplace. The kitchen was stocked with pots/pans and some main supplies like flour, oil, seasonings, etc. The hot tub was amazing and plenty big for the six of us. At night the front porch and deck was amazing for stargazing. 10/10 stay.

Perfect getaway!

Very nice cabin getaway that is a bit off the path. The road to get to the cabin is unpaved in some places and quite steep. The cabin itself is very clean and well maintained. We had no issues with any appliances or supplies. One very important thing for us is to NOT call for help. It's good to have service a available but much better to not need it at all. The peacocks were an unexpected, but welcome surprise. They blended in beautifully into the beauty around us. They were not bothersome, and seemed comfortable around humans. They visited us everyday, in the morning and in the evening. All in all, wonderful stay.

Boy's weekend

Great place to get away in the mountains, property was clean and spacious. Parking for more than 2 vehicles could be potentially challenging and the access road is quite steep. The game room and hot tub were excellent, kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

A little slice of heaven

My husband and I had a wonderful long weekend at Bair Necessities. We enjoyed our coffee on the back deck while listening to the calls of the wild peacocks, hawks, and the chattering of squirrels. Our time at Bair Necessities was so relaxing. We loved having a game room, such fun! We plan on coming back as soon as we can!!

Very spacious, the basement was so cool! The location is fun and deep in nature. A bear got into our lock box so that just needed replaced! The peacocks were so pretty and visited us every once in a while.

Great cabin!

We rented the cabin for spring break and it was the perfect size. And it was close to Old Fort, Black Mountain, hiking and Asheville. There are lots of hiking trails nearby. We loved the fireplace and hot tub. Everything was clean and well taken care of.

The house was perfect for our needs

The house was perfect for what our family needed. Extra effort and care was evident in the Christmas decorations throughout the house. We woke up each day and watched the sun rise from the back deck. The house was well laid out and we loved the game room. I would advise first time visitors to find the house during the day.

Sad place

It was nice when we got there seeing the nice cabin in the woods. When we came inside it was okay, until we saw a sectional sofa. However the sectional sofa was a half one. It was ripped, it was covered with awful spots. It was stained! God only knows with what! My sister’s husband put the comforters from one of the rooms on the sofa. My brother-in-law is a retired disabled veteran. Who does everything by the book. He took pictures of everything. On the next day my Brother-In-Law found two pills under the bed in the first bedroom under the bed. He was trying to find a Sox that he lost. I told him what if we had a little kid that went under the bed and they too the capsule and ate it? The floors was nasty it was a bad experience!

Quaint cabin in a secluded setting.

We really enjoyed our long weekend in this cabin. It was very clean and we appreciated all the supplies that some rentals do not. Plenty of TP, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, dish washers pods, and laundry room with soap in the basement. Beautiful interior with all the wood. Great hiking trails nearby. Beds comfortable. Kitchen well stocked. The driveway is steep so you need to be aware of that. Suggestions to owner would be…..place a house number sign more prominently at the top of your driveway. And add some gravel at the base of Hobson Road where you turn in.

Truly a getaway!

An easy trip, with a surprise ending---as this property is tucked back deep in the woods for a perfect remote feeling getaway from the hustle and bustle. The interior of the property was clean, and boasts that true mountain cabin feel. Beds were comfy, amenities were adequate for cooking at home, and the game room was perfect for our pre-teen kids to enjoy while we were there! It was nice to be outside of Asheville and explore the surrounding towns...Old Fort and Black Mountain, and still convenient to go into Asheville for activities. The best surprise was being greeted one morning by two beautiful peacocks on the back deck! This doesnt need to be posted, but my only complaint would be the exterior of the home. There outdoor patio and furniture were covered in bird poop (seems this would be cleaned up a bit) and the porch seemed to be leaning, which didnt make us feel comfortable spending time outside.
