Home Away Reviews

Rustic Mountain Getaways

“This is absolutely one of the best Airbnb’s I have stayed at. The location is unbeatable for its natural beauty, the home is warm and cozy with all the amenities and many thoughtful touches of hospitality. We enjoyed coffee in the mornings on the front porch and evenings in the hot tub after a long day of mountain hiking. The lights in the trees at night are a clever and beautiful touch of magic. We could have spent our entire vacation in the cabin and have been completely content.  The cabin also is perfect driving distance to see Black Mountain, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, and Asheville, so there is an abundance of unique eateries and sightseeing opportunities. Ronnie and Candi are incredible hosts and such nice people, it was a pleasure to have met them. They made us feel at home even before we had arrived. I highly recommend staying with them and I can’t wait to return!”

“Loved this cabin! The location was great, not too far from Asheville and the Biltmore, while still secluded and had a beautiful drive to the house in the mountains. The house itself was awesome, very clean and well kept, the hot tub works and was so nice to enjoy during the cooler weekend. Everything in the house had great instructions which made use very easy. We will definitely be booking again when in the area and recommend this cabin to others!”

“House was clean and extremely well stocked. Close to downtown Asheville ($25 one way via Uber). Hosts were very friendly and answered all questions quickly and were generous with early check in and late check out. We had a great time relaxing in hot tub and catching up with friends.”

“Ronnie and Candi are wonderful hosts. Their home is beautiful and was the perfect place for my wife and I, and the other couple that stayed with us. We enjoyed the hot tub, grilling, and cooking in the spacious kitchen! The location was perfect to enjoy the mountains and just a short drive to the Biltmore Estate. We had an amazing time and are planning to come back again soon!”

“Absolutely perfect getaway spot. Cozy doesn't even begin to define how lovely Ronnie and Candi's place is. They had everything we could have possibly needed readily available. Watching the sunset over the mountains from the comfort of the hot tub is now one of our most cherished memories. My only complaint is that we didn't stay longer!”

Magical Mountain Getaway
This is absolutely one of the best Airbnb’s I have stayed at. The location is unbeatable for its natural beauty, the home is warm and cozy with all the amenities and many thoughtful touches of hospitality. We enjoyed coffee in the mornings on the front porch and evenings in the hot tub after a long day of mountain hiking. The lights in the trees at night are a clever and beautiful touch of magic. We could have spent our entire vacation in the cabin and have been completely content. There is an amazing restaurant (the Straightaway Cafe) just down the road that offered a glimpse into the incredible local atmosphere with fantastic live music, food, and residential bear sightings. The cabin also is perfect driving distance to see Black Mountain, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, and Asheville, so there is an abundance of unique eateries and sightseeing opportunities. Ronnie and Candi are incredible hosts and such nice people, it was a pleasure to have met them. They made us feel at home even before we had arrived. I highly recommend staying with them and I can’t wait to return!”

Perfect Property
Timber Ridge is amazing! It feels like a mountain retreat in the country but you’re only 25 minutes from downtown Asheville. The cabin is stocked with everything you could ever need. There were so many extras that went beyond any other cabin we’ve rented. We loved the full size shampoo, the wine, chocolate, and danish that were left for us. The house itself is beautiful and pretty much brand new. It was spotless when we arrived and the attention to detail is obvious! The Christmas decorations and nighttime laser light show were excellent bonuses. The couch is sooooo comfy and the tv is huge. The hot tub was clean and lovely after days filled hiking and shopping! Candi and Ronnie were attentive but in no way overbearing. We felt safe knowing that they were nearby in case we needed anything!

Beautiful property- great value
My 2 sisters and I took our 92 year old mom to Asheville to take in all the fall sites. We knew nothing of the area nor any available rentals. This looked beautiful and had lots of nice extras like a hot tub and fire pit on the wraparound deck. It was even better than we hoped. Candi met us when we checked in with hugs all around and showed us all the beauty that is their house. Everything is perfect, upscale and brand new. The hot tub was amazing-they had big towels by the door right next to plastic wine glasses. What a great touch! We just cannot say enough about the fabulous time we had. We enjoyed the Biltmore, the sites and the food, but our very favorite part of the trip was this property!!!

Perfect!
This is a beautiful home in a perfect location to feel away from it all, but close enough to get to Asheville by uber or Lyft. Candi and Ronnie have thought of everything to make you feel at home. We loved sitting out on the porch looking at the woods and the mountains, the hot tub, very large screen tv…everything wonderful! You will not be disappointed.

Home built with love
When I arrived, Ronnie and Candi came over to greet us and offer assistance with anything we might need. They are both so very nice and kind. I was especially impressed to learn that they had built this home with a great deal of love and meticulous planning. The home gave off such a comfortable and warm feeling with the rich feel of wood. The home was furnished with everything one would need plus had extra goodies for us! The view from the home is incredible! I loved everything about this AWESOME home!! Thanks to Ronnie for bringing us a computer cord (in the rain) so we could operate our computer! A big thanks to Candi and Ronnie for making our stay most pleasurable.

Very clean with all needed amenities
The night time lights are a nice touch along with providing extra items such as a Danish upon arrival is a nice surprise. Trail guides at cabin make hiking easy. Only minor suggestion would be a t.v. in the bedroom. We truly loved our stay.

Lovely property
The property appears to be quite new. The furnishings are attractive and in keeping with mountain cabin motif. The fire pit and hot tub are at the front and back door of the property. Our hosts were wonderful. A bottle of wine, dark chocolate, and breakfast rolls were awaiting us upon arrival. It is about a half hour drive to downtown Asheville (in the pouring rain.) If you are looking for mountain scenery and a spot in the woods, this is an excellent property.
