Leaf peeping views-minutes to downtown-stargazing-25 minutes to Asheville

Escape to our charming 700 sq. ft. mountain retreat overlooking Jacks Mountain Preserve - an old golf course turned nature preserve. Perfect for small families, couples or friends, this cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath home features modern comforts and decor, 4 beds total, a fully equipped (and then some) kitchen, and reliable internet. Enjoy breathtaking mountain views by day and stargazing at night. Pet-friendly, with clean water and nearby nature trails, it’s ideal for relaxation or adventure.

The Perch is located on our 2.5-acre property, directly behind our home, overlooking an old golf course turned nature preserve with year-round mountain views. The home includes a full kitchen, living room with a queen-sized pullout sleeper couch, dining area, work area, and laundry room. The entire space is about 700 sq. feet. There are two porches—one overlooking the pool and mountains and another facing the fire pit and nearly 500 acres of undeveloped forest.

Each room has a 32-inch TV

In addition to the firepit, we offer a charcoal grill, a tandem kayak, a single kayak, a canoe and the pool is available for use in the on-season. We do rent out our pool out by the hour to the community via an app called Swimply, so we just ask that we stay in communication about when you wish to swim and we'll communicate when it is reserved. We will give you privacy at the pool and we welcome our guests to swim with us - so it's not off limits when we're there! Even during the off-season our pool bar, which features a fridge, TV, grill, music system and outdoor bathroom is an awesome spot to hangout.

Great spot for a quick weekend. No need to venture very far to find great hiking. On Friday we drove 40 mins away for a hike that wasn’t half as good as the trails in Black Mountain about 10-15 mins away. The Brewery right up the road under the overpass of 40 was great also. Thanks for the clean well appointed place to stay.
