Idyllic location

Sent on 2024-08-17 by Janet

Our family was so happy to be back at Birdwood this year and the upgrades were beyond our expectations! The lower level is clean and dry and has lots of room for our big family to sleep. Each room has its own A/C unit so everyone was happy. The main level kitchen is beautiful and the renovations have created more usable spaces. Our family of 20 loves to eat on the large porch and there is plenty of room for us all to sit and chat. We also love the fire pit and making s’mores in the evenings. There are ample places to walk and hike for our active dog but also a level street on either side for the grandparents to stroll. I cannot wait to return next year!

Manager's Response

Janet, we can't thank you enough for your glowing review of Birdwood! We're so happy you and your family had an exceptional stay and loved all the recent upgrades. The owners have poured so much care and attention into the renovations, and we're excited for this new and exciting chapter in the home's long and treasured history. We appreciate you sharing your experience with us and future guests, and we're excited for your return next year!

Birdwood, New and Improved!!!

This was our first stay in Birdwood, and we will be back! Recently renovated, it surpassed all of our expectations! With three generations of family under one roof, there was ample space to spread out if we needed; but also great gathering spaces for us to all come together. We all agreed that it was our most favorite rental. The kitchens were well stocked, and every detail was considered to ensure that our stay was comfortable. We can't wait to return next Summer!

Manager's Response

Wonderful, Karen! I am so glad you enjoyed the renovations at Birdwood and found the accommodations to be more than adequate. Thank you for the great feedback.

A new favorite

We found our new favorite house in Montreat for our family of 15. The grandchildren and parents loved just about everything in the house. They were sad to leave last Saturday. Turning that feeling into expectation for 2025 was a no brainer. We are all in for another week- same time- same place! The renewed house after what must have been a devastating loss 2 years ago was done in all the right ways. I appreciate the work put in to make Birdwood last another 100 + years. the Keely, Sanders and Middleton families.

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for your kind review, Beverley! We couldn't be more pleased to hear that Birdwood has become your family's new favorite house in Montreat. There was so much hard work and love poured into the renovations, so we're glad you could feel that during your time there. We appreciate you recommending this home and Greybeard Rentals to fellow travelers, and we are looking forward to welcoming you and your crew back next year.

We hosted twenty for lunch on the 4th. The wraparound porch and outdoor patio were terrific. We would have been able to gather even if it had rained though thankfully it didn't.

FAQs

WHERE IS THIS HOUSE LOCATED?

Birdwood is located in Montreat. This home is approximately 10 minutes to Black Mountain and 30 minutes to Asheville. Click on the location tab above to locate this house on a map.

WHAT IS YOUR REFUND/CANCELLATION POLICY?

If you need to cancel your reservation and the property you had reserved re-rents for the time which you had it reserved, you will be refunded all money you had paid minus an $89 cancellation fee. If you cancel and the property does not re-rent for your reserved dates, you will lose all money you have paid to that point. For this reason, we recommend that you purchase trip insurance . Please call 888-228-8008 before making a reservation if you have questions or concerns.

WHAT IS YOUR PET POLICY AND FEE?

Birdwood is specified as "pet friendly" and dogs are allowed. Unfortunately, due to common allergy problems we cannot allow cats. For the privilege of bringing your dog, there is a minimum charge of $100 nonrefundable fee per pet. A maximum of two dogs are allowed unless you have received special permission from the property manager or homeowner. Any damage that may be caused by your pet during your stay will be paid for out of your security deposit or charged to the credit card we have on file. There is a county-wide leash law in place. When taking your dog outside of a gated area, please ensure that they are on a leash.

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. Early check-in is not available during the summer conference season. 

WHERE DO WE CHECK-IN/PICK UP KEYS?

You will pick up keys from our Black Mountain office, located at 204 East State Street. Keys will be available starting at 4:00 pm. If you are arriving after hours, you will receive instructions on how to access the safe on our front porch. There will be an envelope with your name and house name at the top. Your keys and driving directions will be inside the envelope.

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.

WILL THERE BE FIREWOOD AT THE HOUSE?

Firewood is not supplied by Greybeard. Some houses may have a small supply of firewood for renter use; however, it is best to purchase your own small bundle of wood or Duraflame pressed logs at the local grocery store. Cutting branches, limbs or trees on the property is strictly prohibited. You can use limbs found on the ground. 

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

Wifi is available at Birdwood. 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.
