I loved staying at this house while in Brevard. First of all it was the cleanest VRBO I have booked. The bed was comfortable, plenty of closet space, a luggage stand in both rooms so I did not have to bend over (challenging when you are 67). Plenty of towels!!!! The kitchen was neatly stocked with dishes, pot/pans, dish soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper (not the cheap stuff either). The kitchen was big with a nice eating area. They even have an iron and ironing board. What impressed me the most was the ease of communication and they genuinely cared about our stay. Thank you for having a tv that had stations we could watch. I felt they welcomed us to their home as if we knew each other. You always want the best for your guests and I appreciate you making our stay comfortable. The location was perfect. A shout out to the wonderful restaurants in downtown Brevard. The shops in the downtown area supported the local vendors which for unique gifts. I could go on and on about our stay but I hope you (other travelers) will find out first hand.

Cozy paradise in Brevard. We were here for hiking in April and it was perfect. Spectacularly clean. Responsive owner. Simple check-in. Super comfortable beds. Well equipped kitchen. Excellent location. Close to Ingles grocery store and great downtown dining options. Don’t miss The Yard, which has an Airstream coffee and ice cream “Must Visit” venue and is very close to the house. We hope we get a chance to visit Brevard again. Would absolutely stay here the next time.

Brevard Bike and Hike Retreat provided my wife and I a wonderful accommodation for our stay in Brevard. The retreat is well designed and tastefully decorated with many thoughtful and functional touches. Especially enjoyed the wonderful kitchen that was so well equipped. The bed was wonderfully comfortable, and the entire retreat was immaculately clean. Location is close enough to walk to downtown in about 15 minutes, with several restaurants only a few minutes away by foot. Great communication with our host who made us feel welcomed. Most highly recommend the Retreat, and we look forward to our next stay at this location.

Beautiful, clean, and perfect location. This cozy house is a great base camp for everything Brevard. It has everything you need to enjoy a weekend or week away. Brevard is a lovely community with something for everyone. Great shopping, excellent restaurants, and so much fun stuff to do outside. We enjoyed hiking, fishing, swimming, and floating down the French broad in a raft. We will be back.

We visit Brevard once or twice each year. This has been our favorite place to stay to date. The location is so convenient to downtown and to Pisgah. The owner did a great job with the decor and functionality of the property as well. It was so comfortable and homey so we could relax after long days of hiking and biking. We just loved it and can’t wait to stay here again! Such a special place.
