Family-friendly holiday rentals in Western North Carolina

This is our third year coming to Karen’s home and it’s simply amazing. The views and location are stunning. We will definitely be back for year 4 next year!

The cabin was very nice and clean and everything was maintained. It had plenty of privacy and everything you need for a weekend stay. Michael was a great host and very responsive and helpful. I would recommend this cabin to anyone.

Grace is an absolutely amazing Airbnb host with an incredible level of hospitality! Without a doubt, the property was the cleanest I've ever stayed at. Every amenity was exactly as described, if not better, and the entire property was not just clean, but truly pristine and thoughtfully set up. Grace was also incredibly responsive to messages and very helpful, offering lots of fantastic recommendations for the area. I highly recommend staying at her property—she truly goes above and beyond, you won't regret it.

617 - 619 We had a very good time here! The bed was very comfy even though the tv was on one Channel lol. The jacuzzi was Very nice and relaxing. We reccomend going to the tuskasegee animal Farm and petting zoo. super cute goats and Sheep especially Lola!

One of the most beautiful locations with the most welcoming hosts! Even helped me make sure my engagement with my girlfriend went flawlessly, Nancy and Jackie are the best!

My husband and I came here for our wedding anniversary and had the perfect time there. It was very peaceful and quiet. The place was easy to find, very clean, and great quality kitchenware. We recognized a lot of IKEA items. We really enjoyed grilling steaks that we got at a local butcher right down the ride, recommended by the host. We also really enjoyed the very clean jacuzzi. This place was just 25 minutes from downtown Asheville, and about an hour and a half from The Pretty Place Chapel, where we got married. There are hikes only a few minutes away where we got to see wild roaming cows at a top of a mountain. We also took a drive to go see Dry Falls waterfalls and it was the most beautiful waterfall we have ever seen. All in all , it was a perfect getaway. Definitely recommend this place.

Our family had the absolute best experience staying at Debbie’s incredible cabin this past weekend! We gathered to celebrate my father’s 70th birthday with kids and grandkids, and we truly could not have pulled off such a memorable and successful weekend without this amazing home. The cabin itself is breathtaking — spacious with three floors to spread out, a pool table that kept everyone entertained, tons of board games for family time, and a hot tub overlooking one of the most stunning mountain ranges we've ever seen. Being the very last house at the end of a mountain road made it feel incredibly private and peaceful — exactly the atmosphere we were hoping for. That kind of seclusion is rare and made all the difference. Everything in the house was in perfect working order — you can tell Debbie takes great care of the property. From start to finish, her communication was fantastic. She was responsive, thoughtful, and quick to take action on anything we needed. 1 MILLION STARS!!!!!!

Drove through the night from Chicago, let’s just say I’m glad we arrived in the morning with daylight. This cabin is definitely a cabin in the mountains. Great view, great spot to get away. The roads getting in definitely will get your blood pumping, and your motor reving. But once you arrive, it is all worth it. David did a wonderful job with all the directions and also his accommodations. From booking to enjoying, it was great. Thank you!!!

One of the most scenic rentals out there! We had a perfect stay at Wayne’s place. Instructions on how to get to the cabin were very clear and GPS surprisingly took us right to the front door. You get incredible privacy but only 20 minutes to get into town if you need anything. Would absolutely return here!

Richard’s cozy cabin in fleetwood was a very good value for our 2 seniors + pet party. The cabin has a lot of outdoor space with a gazebo in front, a deck by the front door and a new beautiful covered deck with gas fire pit off the back door through the bedroom. We very much appreciated the $0 pet fee for our 4-legged friend. And our compliments to housekeeping, we do not take that for granted. Comfortable bed, kitchen is tight but well equipped and stocked with essentials. An advisory for seniors with a dog, the walks will be up and down some steep hilly terrain; consult your cardiologist.

I cannot recommend this place enough!! First off the privacy and the view was spectacular. We were greeted by the cutest dogs! We were able to rest and enjoy the fire pit while lying on the hammock. And the host took us around to see his goats, horses and dogs! It was so enjoyable! I will recommend it to anyone who needs to escape from the city life!

I would recommend Alison to anyone. She was our first host this being our first time using Airbnb. We couldn't ask for anyone better. Not to forget the beautiful house and view. I will never stay in a plain hotel again. I didn't have to worry about me and my families safety at all. Thank you Alison.

Genuinely not enough words to express how much we loved our short stay! Somehow the pictures don't do the property justice; the surrounding mountains and trees and farms are serene and peaceful and exactly what we needed. Elizabeth and Daron were both very friendly and responsive to any questions/concerns we had. If you aren't afraid to get a little dirty, definitely ask to be taken around to meet the animals! They're adorable and friendly and had us laughing the entire stay. Elizabeth even let our puppy play with her farm dogs (aka chase them around in circles) which may have been our favorite part of the trip. We truly had such a a lovely time, we're already planning our next stay in the fall! Can't wait to go back, thanks so much for everything!

I have to admit that I am not the best at writing reviews after staying at airbnbs, but this one was especially great for our family. We were traveling with our baby and 2 dogs, and we found the space very peaceful and well suited for us. I loved their fence for the dogs and the way the bedroom and living area is situated. Would highly recommend and will be coming back!

We absolutely loved this little cabin in the woods. Beautiful and peaceful stay for us and our fur family

Marilyn’s space was perfect for a weekend getaway. Compatible kitchen (note there is no full sized oven but this wasn’t an issue), comfortable furniture, and absolutely stunning surroundings. We spent nearly all day outside hiking, wandering the property, or simply sitting in the yard/eating in the gazebo. Would one thousand percent stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful stay! Marilyn was also available for any needs we had and was respectful of privacy at the same time. Couldn’t be happier!

This was our 2nd stay and it was just as amazing as the 1st! This is the perfect place to unwind and relax. Everything you need is there. A wonderful location and fantastic hosts. Looking forward to returning.

Such a peaceful place to stay even just for a weekend getaway. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to stay with their significant other. the only downside while we were there was not all the animals were there or out.

Opal was amazing to deal with. Beautiful cabin, beautiful view, super clean, with tons of little bonuses. 100% recommend this cabin.

My husband and I were on our honeymoon and absolutely loved this cabin! There was so much to do not to far away but also just having different activities to do at the house were great! We will definitely be back again and stay here! I would recommend this cabin to anyone.

This was my third stay at Glimpse of Heaven, and it most certainly won’t be my last. The name truly says it all. The view is absolutely unmatched. One of my favorite things about this cabin is its location. It’s quiet and serene, far removed from the crowds near Gatlinburg but still just a short drive away if you want to explore the area. It’s also perfectly situated near Cades Cove and the Foothills Parkway, which makes it ideal for scenic drives. The cabin itself is always clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Shirley, the host, is always quick to respond. She makes every stay easy and enjoyable. I couldn’t recommend Glimpse of Heaven more highly—it’s become my go-to escape in the Smokies.

The place was a privately gated cabin community and very quiet. Stephen owned more than cabin so there was a slight mix up of the Airbnb system mix up with the address but Stephen was very responsive and resolved the issue quickly. The view from the wraparound porch of the mountains was everything. Very peaceful and just the reset I needed. The two bedrooms were clean and linens were clean as well. He gave clear instructions and rules prior to arrival and day of arrival.

We truly enjoyed our stay! The cabin was comfortable and the kitchen had everything that we needed. We especially loved the back porch in the trees!

Beautiful views! Very clean and well kept. Vino was very helpful and responsive! We had a great stay!
