It truly is “The BEST of Times!”

What a FABULOUS 4 nights/5 days at this amazing location! Our hubbies stayed home while the 3 of us high school BFF’s explored Cheshire Village, Asheville, Catawba Falls, Black Mountain, Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, and the Biltmore Estate. Best of Times was the PERFECT place to sleep, take in the views, cook breakfast, meet wonderful year-round residents (whose hospitality was incredibly kind), and just “chill” after our daily hikes/exploration. We HIGHLY recommend and are already planning a return trip (with all our husbands in tow next time)! Hands down 5 stars!

Manager's Response

We can't thank you enough for your kind review and for recommending this home to fellow travelers, and we're excited for your return!

After having enjoyed our first trip to Best of Times last year so much, my family decided to visit again this year for Fall Break. This year, we had yet another great experience. The townhouse was clean, is close in proximity to amenities and downtown Black Mountain, and is in a beautiful area. The views from upstairs are gorgeous. We enjoyed walking the sidewalks and trails throughout the beautiful neighborhood during our stay. We would definitely suggest this property to any looking to have a great stay in the Black Mountain area.

Manager's Response

Thank you for the amazing feedback. I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Best of Times so much last time that you returned and had another great stay!

WHAT IS YOUR REFUND/CANCELLATION POLICY?

WHAT IS YOUR PET POLICY AND FEE?

Best of Times is not “pet friendly.” Please be respectful of those owners who, because of allergies or other personal reasons, have chosen not to allow any pets. If housekeeping notes that a pet was present on a non-pet friendly property during your visit, you will be charged a minimum of $600 to clean carpets, upholstered furniture and complete air purification measures. Bringing a pet to a house that is not pet-friendly without owner consent or permission from Greybeard is grounds for termination of the rental agreement without refund. If you must travel with your pet, please contact us for local boarding recommendations. More info about service animals and the ADA is available here.

WHAT ARE CHECK-IN/CHECK OUT TIMES?

Check-in time is 4pm and check out time is 10am. It is important that we adhere to these times, because there is a chance that someone else will be checking out/in before or after you and we need sufficient time to ready the house for the next renter. If you wish to check-in early, there is a $50 early check-in fee that can be added on to your reservation. Early check-in is only available if someone is not checking out on the morning of your arrival.

WHERE DO WE CHECK-IN/PICK UP KEYS?

Best of Times has a keyless entry system. You will receive a unique access code within 3 days of your arrival, allowing you to go straight to the house and check-in starting at 4pm. 

WHAT IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY DURING OUR STAY?

If you are having a medical emergency, dial 911 from the phone in your rental home or cell phone.

We hope that your stay in the area will be relaxing and without incident, but should you need to get in touch with Greybeard, we have someone on call 24 hours a day. Just call our office at 828-669-1072 and select option 1, which will forward to the cell phone of the person on call. Please do not hesitate to call us if something needs immediate attention, but if your question or concern can wait, we ask that you call the office during normal office hours.

WHEN ARE HOMES WITH GAS LOGS IN OPERATION?

Best of Times has an indoor gas logs fireplace. Gas logs are not in operation May through September due to the warmer summer months. 

Since this home does NOT provide an outdoor fire pit, absolutely NO fires are permitted outside, and you cannot bring your own portable fire pit.

IS WIFI SERVICE INCLUDED WITH MY RENTAL RESERVATION? WILL I HAVE CELL PHONE SERVICE AT MY RENTAL?

Wifi is available at Best of Times. Please note that Greybeard Rentals does not guarantee internet connectivity or speed. Each individual homeowner contracts directly with an internet service provider, and due to a variety of reasons, Greybeard does not guarantee service. Our Black Mountain and Asheville offices have wifi service available if needed.

Cell phone service is not guaranteed. You may check with your service provider to see if service is available.
