Group of 9 gals had a great time celebrating 40th birthday. We enjoyed the spacious house. More than enough beds, bathrooms. There are 2 extra beds in the bonus room not listed on the posting. It was perfect. Loved game nights in the living room with fireplace. Huge dining room table & kitchen to enjoy meals together. Five minutes from Ingles grocery, 15-20 mins to Biltmore. Hosts were great & very responsive. Great coffee in the house too!

We had a decent amount to people come together for a weekend of fun and this place was perfect for that. Some entertainment options in the garage and plenty of space both to sleep and to not feel cramped when hanging out. Definitely plan on coming back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House was perfect location for the wedding venue and easy commute into Asheville.
House was clean and beds were comfortable. It also had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We loved the front porch rocking chairs and spent a lot of time sitting out there. The house was large enough to accommodate our family comfortably for the full week and especially as we were all scrambling to get dressed the day of the wedding. We made life long memories as grandkids were here from Ireland and Thailand and USA and all in all it was a lovely house in safe quiet neighborhood.

Very comfortable house for two families. Even saw a couple of bears!! Kids kept busy with ping pong and basketball and adults enjoyed an open living room and great porch! Exactly as advertised.

This home is beautiful, well-equipped, and spacious. The location is out-of-the-way, which suited our purpose of a family get-together. Our party consisted of four adults, three teens, and one child. During the day we were able to comfortably host additional family members. The only surprise occurred before our arrival. We received an email indicating that there are decibel meters in the home to ensure quiet time was honored. This didn't bother us until we were actually onsite and realized that we didn't feel comfortable letting the kids make noise, even inside, that first night. One call to Yonder the next morning put our minds at ease though. I am including it here because it caused one unnecessarily stressful evening. Overall we had a wonderful family reunion and would rent this house again.

We carried a group of seven students from our small Christian school to Black Mountain for the Accelerated Christian Education International Student Convention which was held at Ridgecrest Conference Center. The teens loved the house, especially the game room. The adults enjoyed the porches. It was very relaxing. House was clean and spacious!

Great location close to Asheville. Loved the outdoor porches although we couldn't use them much due to cool weather and rain. Building a fire in the spacious, cozy living room was a great alternative. Well stocked kitchen had everything we needed and more. The only complaint is that the beds are quite firm. I prefer a softer mattress. Overall a great place that I would definitely recommend.

We had an amazing experience and thoroughly enjoyed the aptly appointed home and it’s offerings. Our teenagers loved playing ping pong and basketball in the spacious garage play area and the large living room was perfect for nighttime fireside game play! Great great home!

Our family of ten recently celebrated Christmas at Blue Ridge. Conveniently located near Black Mountain and Asheville, the house was a perfect size for our large group with plenty of room to gather for our family meals & game nights or watching football. It was clean and well-suppled with everything we needed. We loved rocking on the front porch, sitting around the fireplace each evening and the grandkids spend several hours enjoying the garage game room. Parking for our three vehicles was not an issue. The town of Black Mountain was a great place to find hiking, shopping, good food, and even a girls’ sauna day. The management company was quick to assist us when we had a problem with the keyless lock. Maintenance was there within minutes. We would definitely consider this place again. Overall, it was a wonderful family Christmas!

I rented this property for outlet family to come together for Christmas. I had family from Texas, Alabama and California come in. The house was large enough everyone had a bed, having 3 bathrooms was fantastic. The teenagers loved the downstairs area. We had a fire in the fireplace everyday and my family really enjoyed that. The kitchen was large and well stocked. The neighborhood was also very nice. Ingles is very close for groceries. We had plenty of room for games and watching movies and being together. Overall we had a wonderful time together.

I've stayed at perhaps 6 or so different properties over the years, and this one has been my favorite. It was spotlessly clean, well maintained, and nicely appointed. The kitchen has about every baking dish and utensil that one would need. One of my favorite things was to sit on the porch with my family, and the ample rocking chairs were lovely. The location is pretty good ... about 5 minutes from a real grocery store (Ingles) and about 15-20 minutes to downtown Asheville.

Generally clean, well-stocked house with most everything we needed. Quiet, well-maintained neighborhood with easy access to both Asheville and the little town of Black Mountain.

Property was great. We were in town for my sons wedding at Hidden River……just a five minute drive away. The only downer was the fees. Other than the price gouging, it was a good stay. Minus a star for fees.

Amazing spacious property!
This property was great for our group of twelve. We had plenty of space to spread out and we enjoyed the game room and scenic views. The kitchen was well equipped and allowed us to cook breakfast each morning. It was nice to be slightly outside Asheville but still close enough that getting Ubers for our group was doable with a little patience.

The property was spacious enough for 12 of us, 6 kids and 6 adults. We definitely had enough room to spread out. The kids loved the activities in the garage and they all said that was their favorite part of the trip. The house was also close enough to Asheville that we could enjoy all the city had the offer.

Great place, perfect for large groups
Very clean and big enough to hold us 12 adults. Far enough away from downtown to be nice and quiet, but close enough to get there with a short Uber. Great hiking trails also a very short drive away. Would recommend to everyone.

Property was very nice and convenient to downtown Asheville. Lights could have been a little brighter in the dining area and the floors weren't very clean....grandchildren's' white socks were dirty after walking around in the house.

I have already sent 2 suggestions to the owners so will not mention them. Hopefully they will consider them. Besides that, our whole family (4 adults and 4 children) had a great time. Plenty of space for all of us and the grandchildren enjoyed the garage games. The place was very clean and weather was perfect to see what we wanted in the Asheville area. Would recommend to friends.
