The house was neat and clean and inviting. Great location: close to town, but far enough away to give you that secluded feeling. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the view was beautiful.

Sweet cottage in idyllic Barnardsville
We had an enjoyable two-night stay in Annette's beautiful house, which provided just the perfect autumn getaway. Though the location was a bit out of the way, the surrounding area was beautiful. We also loved that the kitchen was very well-stocked.

Dan and Mandy Mountain Getaway
Annette was an awesome host. If you want a clean, private, secluded, fully appointed space in the middle of all the North Carolina mountains, this is it. We cook breakfast and pack a lunch when we do a getaway trip. Annette’s kitchen, with the grill out back, fits the bill, just bring your food and specialty items. The beds are comfortable, the living room accommodating. We used the fire pit out back every night, while we viewed an incredible star lit sky. There are two resident red tail hawks that you will see almost daily. The screech owls and hound dogs give you the authentic out back feel. Convenience store gas stations are 5 miles away, across from the carp fishing pond. You’re one hour from Mount Mitchell, an hour and a half from Grandfather Mountain. We spent 3 days and nights and only touched the surface of the mountain adventure. Stay here…. You won’t be disappointed.

Close to the mountains and forest
Nice place exactly as described. Annette was always there and very quick to respond, when we had any questions.
The town is very nice away from it all and yiu can see the mountains frm the backyard. Did not chance get a chance to use the firepit, but would have been great with the mountaineous backdrop.
Also, Annette was very kind and generous to offer to shi back something that we had forgotten. So grateful to her for that.

We did not have cell service so it was great to have WIFI available. Would definitely recommend if you want to get away and enjoy the mountain view.

spacious home
Nice spacious home. Three porches (one small one thats screened) Close enough to Asheville to commute if you desire, but far enough away to feel secluded. Expansive hiking trails in the "neighborhood. " Host was very thoughtful
My only complaint was that there was no mention of a live electrical fence being in use in the back yard (likely for the cattle in the field behind the property) and my dog managed to shock himself pretty decently while exploring in the fenced area of the back yard so just be mindful of that
