Great Experience

Sent on 2024-07-02 by Sarah

Overall

This house is exactly what we need for our group. Lots of beds, lots of bathrooms even a renovated master bath! We love having lots of space and air conditioning! Greybeard is so easy to work with. One small word of advice: do NOT put your trash in the bear proof trash. Those bears are smart and know how to open it. Save yourself some clean up and take all trash to the dumpster at Greybeard.

Manager's Response

Thanks for your review, Sarah! We're thrilled that Braeburn was exactly what your group needed for an amazing retreat to the mountains, and we're pleased to hear that working with Greybeard just enhanced your already great experience. We can't thank you enough for choosing us at Greybeard Rentals, and we look forward to your return!

We really enjoyed our experience with the Braeburn House and Cottage. The only issues we had, which kept this review from being excellent, were: the stove/oven being an older electric appliance, which did not seem to heat to higher temperatures and has a heat leak through the back right burner; and drive way has a step end and the is primarily loose gravel. I would not recommend trying to use one end of the drive way if you do not have 4WD. Other than that, we found the house to be spacious and cozy. We particularly enjoyed many of the decorations and family pictures. I would recommend this house to others.

Manager's Response

Louden, while we're delighted that you had an overall wonderful experience at Braeburn House and Cottage, we apologize for the inconveniences you encountered during your stay. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback with us and future guests, and we hope that we'll get the chance to host you again soon!

After our original rental fell through, we were thankfully able to get this property for a week. We loved the shared space and the bedrooms were able to accommodate us very comfortably. The hike up the hill wasn't always easy, but it made us stronger. Our group had a wonderful time and can't wait to return next year!

Manager's Response

I'm glad you enjoyed your time at Braeburn House and were able to acclimate to the hike up the hill during your stay. Look forward to welcoming you back!

NIce house, steep hill

This was our 3rd year staying at Braeburn House. Our youth group loves this house but don't like the steep hill to get to it. The adults would appreciate having Wifi so they could chaperone and work during their free time, but the youth don't seem to mind. All of the bedrooms have fans to help stay cool since there is no AC, but the living room and kitchen get pretty hot especially during the day when everyone is gathered together so bringing a couple extra fans along may be a good idea. All in all though it is a great house on a quiet street and I would recommend to anyone with a large group.

Manager's Response

Glad you enjoyed the stay! Thanks for the review.

Braeburn House represents the charm and simplicity of old Montreat homes and cottages. The spacious sitting room and the side porch of the main house both provided comfortable spaces for our group to gather and share reflections from our time at Montreat. During our week we enjoyed being close to the conference center facilities but felt removed enough from the hub of activity to have a sense of seclusion.

FAQs

WHERE IS THIS HOUSE LOCATED?

Braeburn House & Guest Cottage 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?

Braeburn 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. 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 dial extension 203, 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.

IS THERE A FIREPIT?

This house does not provide a firepit. Absolutely NO fires are permitted outside unless the property is fitted with a fire ring/fire pit. 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 Braeburn. 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.
