Breath of Heaven was a great cabin for my family on Christmas. The cabin was stocked with all the amenities and with all the decorations for Christmas. My teenage boys loved having the downstairs to themselves with all the games. The hot tub and outdoor fireplace was definitely a bonus. The Greybeard team was amazing, no matter what obstacle that came our way or what questions we had the ladies in the office were wonderful, professional and most of all friendly. And for that we are grateful and will be back!

Manager's Response

Maggie, it's awesome to hear that you and your family had a spectacular stay at Breath of Heaven over the Christmas holiday! We're also delighted that your interactions with the Greybeard team just enhanced your experience all the more. We're honored that you chose us for your family vacation to the mountains, and we look forward to helping you plan your next trip soon.

This was our second visit to Black Mountain and renting Breath of Heaven. Not only is this rental absolutely beautiful, but Greybeard Rentals is a "top-notch" rental agency. They provide the utmost in communication from start to finish! The guest amenity bag they had waiting for us just showed they care about their clients and want to assure we have what we need. We highly recommend both Breath of Heaven and Greybeard Rentals for any trip to Black Mountain.

Astounding

Sent on 2023-07-20 by Ben

Overall

Lovely Home. Absolutely ASTOUNDING views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Breathtaking. The home was clean, all amenities worked. AC and fans great. Kitchen easy to use. Grill on porch was nice for burgers for sunset dinners. House location is 5 minutes from Black Mountain. 20 from AVL….so a great convenient location. Only reservation is the drive to the house gets a little sketchy at the end AND the driveway is INDEED VERY VERY STEEP. Not for the faint of heart! But there is another slightly less faint inducing entrance. But a LOVELY stay. We decided to forgo our last day hiking to just stay in the house and play games w the kids and eat on the porch watching the sunrise and sunset. WILL DEFINITELY return. Great place.

We really enjoyed our time in Black Mountain. So much so we didn't even make it over to Asheville as planned. The view was amazing, the home was clean, well laid out and very nice. It was just my husband and I but feel it would have worked great for our whole family to have space as well. We didn't get to enjoy the outside space as much just due to weather but both decks have great views and nice options for rest and sharing time. The indoor hot tub was a highlight especially since the weather was more cloudy and cold. VERY steep but short driveway into the house. My only negative is you could hear 40 traffic - but all the positives greatly out weigh this. Very close to everything you need yet you feel miles away from it all when in the home.

This was our second time vacationing in Black Mountain and the first time staying at this property. My family had a great time. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. There was space to spread out and we really enjoyed the hot tub. Being from Florida, we appreciated the mountain view and spent most of our time on the balcony. We will definitely be back next year. My daughter says she misses it already. As for Greybeard Rentals, they were quick to answer my texts and we always love the pumpkin bread they give us :)

We enjoyed truly everything. The house was just as it was pictured and even better. It was clean and had everything we needed. The decor was warm and inviting. The driveway is incredibly steep as was mentioned. We had no problems though. We booked this house primarily because of the outdoor gas fireplace. I have to admit, we were disappointed to find it was under repair. We loved the decks and the hot tub was amazing! Loved Asheville and Black Mountain!! Thank you to Greybeard Realty! So very easy to work with and so friendly. We will rent this house again!!

The house is very nice, clean, updated and the view is amazing! Linens and kitchen items are provided which is very helpful. The hot tub is awesome as well, definitely a great feature! Close to town and a quick 15 minute drive to Asheville. Rental company was great and easy to work with.

I only have 1 con and that is the drive way. They do state the drive way is VERY steep and they were not kidding. It was a little scary going up and down the drive way. I think this alone will prevent me from staying at this house again, BUT if that does not bother you- this is a great house with an stunning view!

We loved our long weekend getaway at Breath of Heaven. It was perfect for our family - clean, cozy, well stocked. We took advantage of a trailhead not far from the cabin and made a day of hiking. Close proximity to Black Mountain was helpful for quick takeout. The kids enjoyed the games and the hot tub while my my husband and I enjoyed the fireplace and the sunsets. Great socially distant vacation.

There are too many things to list. We have rented many homes in various areas of the Blue Ridge Mountains, but have never had a better view, location and overall experience - including when a family of deer casually wandered onto the lower part of the property, had "lunch" for 10 minutes and slowly wandered away. The house is isolated yet convenient to needs, the town is good for tourists yet not "touristy" - the home and the town have much to offer. Our family had no regrets.

The house was absolutely perfect for my family of 7 (all adults). It rained almost our entire vacation, but we didn't mind because that gave us an excuse to hang out on one of the two amazing covered porches, complete with comfie furniture and a fireplace, oh and let's not forget- a picturesque view. We would stay up way too late, enjoying visiting & playing games on that unforgettable porch. We are normally hot tub people, but only made it to the downstairs once to enjoy the beautiful spa room that housed the hot tub, because everyone gravitated to the upper porch with the fireplace. I had been concerned that this 1700 sq foot house wouldn't be big enough, but is was designed so well it seemed much larger, with PLENTY of room, and the 1,700 doesn't include the large porches. The house was like new, with beautiful decor and everything we needed. The sleeping accomodations were perfect for the 7 of us, and could have actually worked for 8 had there been a need. This house was just perfect!!

The views were fantastic and the cabin was so clean and well appointed. The deck with the fireplace was a favorite morning place to enjoy our coffee and talk over the plans for the day. The hot tub was a good place to relax after a fun day of shopping or visiting the Biltmore mansion. The people at Greybeard was wonderful to work with and went out of their way to make us comfortable.

A friend and I rented this house for the holiday weekend as a quiet, relaxing getaway. It definitely did not disappoint! The views are phenomenal and we loved hanging out in the back porch. (We spent almost the entire time lounging around on the deck!). I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of items like the cookware and thinks like the hot tub and TV on-demand were such nice extras! The adorable town of Black Mountain is just a few minutes away. We enjoyed the Dobra Tea House and the antique stores. Its also just a short 20 minute drive into Asheville. We went shopping and visiting the Wake Foot Spa for a massage and foot soak - would recommend! Lastly, we drove about 20 minutes east to Catawba Falls. Its the perfect 2+ mile hike with several waterfalls. It really was the perfect weekend getaway and we hope to come back again!

Manager's Response

I'm so glad you enjoyed your time at Breath of Heaven! Those decks views and spaces are really idyllic. Sounds like you enjoyed a great and relaxing weekend between the massage, foot soak, waterfall hikes and time at the house!

My husband and I and my adult son and my niece spent a week at this comfortable relaxing cabin. Our favorite spot to be was on the porch taking in the magnificent view and just having some much-needed downtime. The first floor of the home is a wonderful option for families, specially young children or adults children. The only complaint we had was there were very loud dogs barking at the bottom of the mountain that sometimes disrupted the peace and tranquility

Overall, yr stay was great.

Manager's Response

Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the time at Breath of 's a great home. I am sorry that we had to shuffle you around because of the a/c issues at the other home you were originally staying at! This doesn't happen much, but when it does it can be a little disruptive and we really appreciate your patience and flexibility as we resolved the unforeseen issues at the other home.

We had a wonderful time during our stay at Breath of Heaven. The home was in excellent shape and very clean.. Driveway was a little intimadating and the road up to the cabin scary, but once you get there and in the home, it's all worth it! You can go relax in the spa room hot tub, or relax on the deck and enjoy the fireplace. Black Mountain was a quaint little town and driving through the Blue Ridge Parkway was beauiful.Would definately do it again!!

The house was beautiful. Except for the scary driveway it could not have been more perfect. Great view and loved the town too. Close to Asheville and local shopping. Rachel from Greybeard was extremely helpful as well! will definitely visit again!

Manager's Response

I'm so glad you enjoyed the stay at Breath of Heaven! Yes, some of our mountain driveways for homes with views can appear daunting for some, but this one is still very safe. Thank you for your feedback, and look forward to next time!

We loved \"Breath of Heaven\". The house is new with all the modern conveniences , it even had a wonderful spa. It was spotlessly clean, tastefully and comfortably furnushed in the Craftmsn style. The kitchen is very well equipped. We found a magic whisk in one draw that takes the work out of whisking a salad dressing. We googled it and bought two on Amazon. We now have a keepsake (including photos) of our wonderful stay in Bkack Mountain. The beds were comfortable, and the three bedrooms are designed so that that two or three couples could have privacy from each other or parents could have the same from their children. We BBQ'd on the deck overlooking the valley with its stunning sunsets. We loved the area and explored extensively. The town of Black Mountain (a 10 minute or so drive) is delightful. No need to travel further for supplies and boutique shops . Overall the house emitted a sense of peace. I loved practicing yoga on the deck.

Manager's Response

Sounds like a wonderful time at a really great home! And, I'm sure that was a perfect spot to practice view is just great. Glad you enjoyed the time at Breath of Heaven.

We were very impressed with the Breath of Heaven cabin owned by Greybeard Realty. This cabin was gorgeous- just like the pictures show! The management staff was very accommodating and professional and made us feel welcome and appreciated. The cabin was spotless and satisfied our needs for the long weekend. The location was perfect for getting into Asheville for dinners but up to the mountains for hiking during the day. We are already planning to come back and stay there again!

Manager's Response

That's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the accommodations at Breath of Heaven and working with us here at Greybeard. Thank you for staying with us and so glad to hear that we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back!!

A wonderful luxury mountain cabin experience. The cabin is beautifully furnished with nice new amenities, including a Jacuzzi hot tub, fully equipped kitchen, and two large patio decks. The cabin was immaculately maintained. It is within walking distance to Black Mountain but still feels like a secluded mountain cabin. I thoroughly enjoyed my three day stay. I wanted to stay longer. Greybeard Rentals made the rental process super easy.

Manager's Response

Good to hear all around - thanks for the great feedback. When you come back next I do hope you get to stay longer - we'd love to welcome you!
