About this property

Mountain Top Cabin in Wolf Laurel, just North of Asheville

You will absolutely love our mountain top home located in a gated community with easy access to lots of things to do, places to eat, and the beauty of nature. Our completely renovated and beautifully decorated home is just north of Asheville and is a true mountain top retreat. There are four bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The master bedroom features a gel top king size bed, 40" flat screen tv, a door to the outside deck, incredible mountain views, and private master bathroom. There are three bedrooms with queen size beds. The living area includes a wood burning fireplace, 60" flatscreen tv, and a wall of windows for great mountain views. WiFi is available throughout the house. There is a large dining room, a well stocked kitchen, a full laundry room, and a recreation room with pool table and 10 game PAC-Man arcade game; yes this house has it all. You can wake up to beautiful sunrises or enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sun paint the sky at sunset - the views from inside and out are spectacular. The back of the house offers two levels of large deck space with a gas fire pit. Along side the house is a small creek that offers peaceful sounds. At 4600 feet of elevation, it is always cool during the summer.

If you enjoy hiking, there is a nature trail just below the house and about 2000 feet from the front door, you can walk to the Appalachian Trail. Big Bald Mountain is just down the road where you can hike to the top for great long range views. If you enjoy skiing, the Wolf Ridge Ski Resort is just 2.5 miles (10 min) away and offers skiing and snowboarding. The summer offers rafting, tubing, zip lining, and horseback riding at the nearby Wolf Laurel Stables. Wildlife is everywhere; with deer, turkey, and bear frequently seen right from the house.

Asheville and all that Asheville has to offer is just 35 minutes away. There is an incredible local music scene in Asheville, lots of micro-breweries and pubs, awesome restaurants, and the Biltmore Mansion. Also nearby is Little Switzerland, Hot Springs, and of course the famous Blue Ridge Parkway.

This house is located in the exclusive gated community of Wolf Laurel. The community is extremely safe, well maintained, and full of wildlife. While the community has some amenities, guests do not have access to the pool, tennis courts, or pickle ball courts; these are reserved for members.

We do have security cameras on the exterior of the property. This allows us to feel better about having a home so far away and helps with our insurance costs. We do not use them to monitor guests; just the opposite, they are to know all is well when no one is around.

This is our mountain top retreat and we would be delighted to share it with you.

Wedding trip
We selected this property because it fit my family’s needs very well. There was plenty of space for the six of us. We enjoyed the game room with pool table. We liked that it was secluded in a gated community. I liked to sit on the deck and enjoy nature. The quiet time was awesome.

Near The Appalachian Trail!
We loved our stay! We could walk right up the road to get on the access trail to the AT which is exactly what we were looking for. The house was very clean and comfortable. We hope to come back again for more hiking!

Amazing
My family had the best experience of all our VRBO stays. The hosts are unbelievable kind, thoughtful, and helpful with excellent communication. They even took the time to update us on weather alerts during our stay. The house is absolutely beautiful with a breath-taking view. They supply you with everything you could ask for including kitchen appliances, pots and pans, books, games, and more. The house is remote and it's very quiet and peaceful there. Asheville and other popular spots aren't too bad of a distance but there is plenty of hiking to in the area as well as snow tubing and skiing right there.This was our first time visiting North Carolina and we couldn't have been more blessed by the hosts and this entire experience. You should definitely stay here for your Blue Ridge mountains vacation!

Great spot for a family trip
We loved our stay! Beautiful mountain views, spacious living room, awesome fire pit, and trail behind the house were great. We had plenty of room at the dining table for Thanksgiving dinner and game nights. We would definitely choose to stay here again!

Host profile image
We are Darrel and Marie Donatto and we are excited to be able to share our vacation home with you. Marie and I live in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida where Marie works in the finance industry and I am a Fire Chief with 36 years of service. We both work hard and long hours and spend a lot of our off time serving at our church.

We are fortunate to be just five short miles from some of the most beautiful beaches and ocean water in the world. We find a tremendous amount of peace and restoration from the ocean.

Why they chose this property

When we vacation, we like to travel to areas that offer mountains, hiking, and forested lands. Which is what led us to purchase this second home in Wolf Laurel.

We fell in love with the area, and hope that you do as well.

What makes this property unique

The location of this property is incredible. You are just north of Asheville; being close enough for day trips to all of Asheville's offerings and happenings. Asheville has a regional airport with incredibly low airfare if you can fly Allegiant Airlines. The property is in the gated community of Wolf Laurel, which is spectacularly maintained. It is near the top of the mountain at 4500 feet of elevation with great seasonal views. It is within a short walk of the Appalachian Trail. It is within a short drive of numerous hiking trails. You are simply surrounded by natural beauty.
