We all loved this house! The back deck was a great size and shaded by trees in the afternoon. The location in regards to Brevard was fantastic - everything was so accessible. The neighborhood was quiet - met the backyard neighbor through our dogs checking each other out! (Loved the fenced yard!)As the owner mentioned, the kitchen was super well stocked and organized. Everything was as advertised plus!

OP Taylor’s place was a perfect getaway for our family of 4! We loved the proximity to the cute downtown Brevard area with restaurants and shops. The house was stocked with lots of fun games and activities. My kids had so much entertainment I had trouble prying them away. This was the best stocked Vrbo I’ve ever been at. If you want to cook, you will have everything that you need.:). This area is perfectly situated close by many waterfalls and outdoor activities. We had the opportunity to meet the owner who is very friendly and welcoming. My only reservation about sharing our review is that we want to come back. 🤣. Thank OP for an awesome vacation.

White Squirrel Week
This is a very nice house to stay in Brevard. John is great at communicating with his guests and making his house very welcoming. Wonderful game room with lots to do. House is clean and beds very comfy. Best sleep I’ve gotten so far on my trip. Plus the house is walking distance to the downtown where there is lots to do. Will definitely be returning when we visit Brevard. Thank you. Plus the house has a white squirrel who comes by as seen in the photo.

Convenient and comfortable
John's place is a true gem! The house has absolutely everything we needed to have a relaxing, fun-filled weekend of mountain biking. All the staples we needed for cooking, laundry, and bathroom essentials were provided, letting us focus on having a blast. The house is a short drive from several different biking areas, and being able to bring our dogs was a huge plus. Being able to soak our sore muscles in the hot tub at the end of the day was a dream come true. We will be back for sure!

Perfect location and great yard
This house is perfectly located, a few blocks from downtown Brevard and the many great restaurants and stores there, and also close to the lumberyard district, which is home to Morning Social, ( a great brunch.place), a good pizza place, a wonderful microbrewery and music club, and a fantastic ice cream trailer. The backyard of the house is beautiful and well fenced, perfect for a dog to run around and chase the ball. The owner was very responsive when we had occasional questions, and has fully equipped the house for cooking and fun activities.

House had everything our family of four (dog) needed for a wonderful getaway in Brevard. Kitchen is very well stocked with anything you could need for preparing meals. Hot tub and game selection were great to have available. Bike Barn for securing mountain bikes was a huge plus for our trip. Host has anticipated and provided for all guest needs. We will return.

We really enjoyed playing bumper pool! Enjoyed Thanksgiving with our son who lives in Brevard and went to High Falls.
The only thing we needed and didn’t think to bring was a hdmi cable so we could watch our home team play football and basketball on the tv rather than our laptop.

Quaint home that met all of our needs!
John and Susie were was amazing hosts! From the easy checkin process, to wine/beer/chocolate to greet us, to TONS of games/cards, and an awesome hot tub! Fenced in back yard was a bonus since I brought our little dog. Upon leaving we were asked to do minimal tasks which aided in us still sleeping late and gone by 11am! While we didn't use the bikes, that was an added bonus!

Looking forward to our next stay!
The house is centrally located within easy walking distance to downtown and the Lumber Arts District, home to a brewery and restaurants. Pisgah National Forest and Du Pont State Park is only a short drive away. The house has been nicely renovated, and was clean and well stocked. We found the beds very comfortable. The internet was a little slow but was useable. The only small thing I would recommend to the host, is to change the curtains in the bedrooms to blackout ones. We would definitely stay there again.
