Loved our stay at Idlewood. The house was extremely clean and kitchen was as well equipped as we have seen at any rental. Location is great with easy access to trails and Montreat amenities, and a short drive to downtown Black Mountain. We enjoyed the area over New Years and are looking forward to trying it out for a summer stay.

We had a fun time… 8 girls keeping the Montreat tradition alive! We had hoped linens and towels were included- they take up lots of packing space, but we read at the last minute we needed to pack ours. Nice, cozy house. The downstairs kitchen seemed a little funky, but we made it work! The upstairs porch was covered in leaves, but that must not have bothered us too badly, because we didn’t use the blower! Overall very nice, with parking being a little tricky!

The house was comfortable and clean, with plenty of kitchen supplies and dishes. The driveway was very steep and wet leaves didn't help, but overall it was a wonderful weekend getaway place!

We had a great stay and enjoyed the cabin. The only suggestion I have is to let people know that the front door locks automatically when you leave and close it.

We stayed here for a weekend in January. The house is charmingly vintage. The kitchen was well equipped and you could tell someone who loves to cook and bake stays here often. They even had coffee and hot cocoa for us AND s’mores sticks. There was enough seating in the living room for everyone in our group. It’s a very short walk to the Montreat conference center/Inn and stores. The kitchen is downstairs away from the bedrooms and living space which may present an obstacle to those who have a hard time going up and down stairs. The seemingly new tvs in each room were a plus. We hope to stay there again! It’s also a very short drive to Blavk Mountain.

Charming and cozy mountain cabin with a very well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds great bedroom arrangement for a small family gathering. As noted before, the driveway is steep but is short and presented no problems. Probably would be a challenge in snow or ice but you can park at the top of the drive. Downstairs kitchen and dining room are cool in cold weather but space heaters have been provided. Great location for walking to the park or Lake Susan and lots of hiking trails near by.

Just as listed! Spacious with very comfortable beds and everything we needed in the kitchen. Great stash of games and we enjoyed the fireplace on a cool evening. The driveway is steep but even after a day of rain we had no problem getting in or out. Very easy communication with the owner. Thank you for sharing this property with us!
