Everything we could have needed was present in this house. Very thoughtfully designed and overall a very well built home. Also, for people traveling with young kids, they have a pack and play and a playground! Everyone in my party loved the house, felt very comfortable, and enjoyed their stay.

The cabin where we stayed was so beautiful - right out of a magazine. Very clean and the kitchen was well stocked of everything you could need for meal prep. Bathrooms and bedrooms very nice - abundance of towels/linen provided. The house was large enough for our party of 8 to spread out and do their own thing, but had large gathering spaces for all of us to be together. View was outstanding. Game room downstairs was very nice with pool and tons of games.

Almost everything. Havencrest is lovely, and well-stocked in terms of cooking utensils, pots and pans, and other essentials. Our only "negative" was the dishwasher, which did not clean thoroughly on a couple of occasions, and failed to dry the dishes; they were wet with residual water each time we used it. We believe it may require some kind of repair of adjustment. Quite minor, however, in the overall scheme of things.

The view! Havencrest is a lovely home with lots of space for our extended family to feel comfortable, but the view down into the valley and across the mountains was spectacular. We appreciated having a large kitchen and dining room so that we could all share meals and enjoy one another's company.

We are a group of women friends, from around the country, who get together annually for a "girl's trip." While researching rental properties in the Asheville area, I found the Greybeard website. The staff at Greybeard could not have been more friendly, helpful, and professional. The rental process was quick and easy, as was the check-in/check out procedures.

Havencrest is a beautiful, well-maintained home, and has the best equipped kitchen of any house we have rented over the years. The mountain, valley, and lake views are gorgeous, as enjoyed from it's location near the top of Gateway Mountain. The curvy, well-maintained road to the house was a little daunting on our initial trip up the mountain, but we quickly became familiar with the drive, and had no issues what-so-ever. This spacious home has bedrooms located on all three levels, as well as comfortable gathering areas, and two kitchens/a kitchenette for your convenience. The double-sided, wood burning fireplace was great for taking the chill off the cool nights. The Halloween/Autumn decorations throughout the house were warm and welcoming, making it feel more like a friend's home, than a rental house. Our group voted Havencrest one of our best vacation rentals ever! And we would not hesitate to stay here again, should we return to the Asheville area in the future.

The beautiful house was spacious for our extended family of various ages. The house offered plenty to do without leaving such as the pool table, basketball court, screen porch and deck with rockers. We loved the large kitchen since eating out was a windy 30 min drive.

The house was wonderful. A lot of homes advertise luxury, and are not, but this one fit the bill to the "T". From furnishings to kitchen utensils to all that we enjoyed this is definitely worth it. The owners have taken special care to make the home feel more like a home than a rental and the environment is very secluded and quiet. WE will be back as our entire family said the same thing, that the pictures as advertised did not do the home justice. It was better!!

My family and I (9 of us and 4 dogs) sought refuse from Hurricane Florence. We traveled together from Wilmington with everything important to us. This home was just what we needed ... it had everything, lots of space, comfort and incredible views! We enjoyed cooking in the well equipped kitchen. Playing pool and, games and movies! Proximity to Asheville provided a couple of fun outings good food and great breweries! I hope to return for a vacation when the leaves are changing! I want to thank the staff of Greybeard Rentals each person I spioke with was extremely helpful and so very kind! I highly recommend Greybeard and Havencrest!

Manager's Response

Happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Havencrest and enjoyed visiting restaurants and breweries! I hope all is well for you back in Wilmington. Please do come back for the fall color change - we'd love to welcome you!

The house was great. It rained a bit over Memorial Day Weekend but there was plenty of room in the house for games and lounging around. The house was in a nice, quiet, and beautiful location. Plenty of room for food and cooking with the 2 full size kitchens and charcoal grill out back. Come stocked up on groceries and there's no reason to leave. We had a great experience. Thank you.

This was an incredible rental. It was a magnificent home, spacious, comfortable, and well stocked. We had 9 guests, all comfortable with their own beds, plenty of bathrooms, and a great kitchen we used to make a special meal one night. The decks are awesome with great views. One night it rained which made the screened deck especially a welcome addition to the home.

I stayed in the master bedroom which was larger than most apartments I've had. With a huge bathroom and a 5 headed shower you could get lost in, it truly felt like luxury living.

It was a little tough to find the first night, I recommend to anyone renting this home to find it in daylight hours.

Manager's Response

I'm so glad you enjoyed the luxury-living at Havencrest! It's a great home. Yes, we definitely recommend arriving the first time during daylight hours as well. Thanks for the great feedback. Come back soon! - Greybeard Rentals

I am awed by how beautiful this house was. We had a cousins get together with 11 people and enjoyed every second of it. The house was huge and we could have fit at least 5 more people comfortably. We spent the days hiking and the evenings in the living room or screened in porch. We enjoyed the games and movies that were in the house. I would definitely recommend this rental to ANYONE.

The 5 bedroom house was lovely and with a beautiful view. It was very clean and everything in good order. It had a billards room in the lower floor which was great for entertainment in the evenings. Because the house is in a pretty isolated location in the mountains, we made sure we returned back to the house before dark. The roads are narrow,, steep and curvy and house can be difficult to find especially once its dark. That was the only negative about the experience. The property management company did a great job as they were very responsive and helpful with any questions.

Manager's Response

I'm glad you enjoyed Havencrest and working with us here at Greybeard! It really is a wonderful home with a great view. We like to say that these beautiful mountain views usually come hand in hand with being a bit off the beaten path (and disclose it in the description/amenity selections just to be upfront). Though, I have to say that the driveway for this home is definitely easy access. :) Thanks for your feedback!

House was very nice and clean !! The view from house was Beautiful . We loved just sitting in rocking chairs on porch . The 2 master bedrooms were lovely but would have enjoyed a TV in those rooms and other bedrooms . Kitchen was very well stocked and Beautiful, lots of room for everyone to cook . Only problems were the kitchen faucet handle was broken but we worked with it . Kids enjoyed the basketball court and outside fire pit. Would enjoy staying there again !!

Manager's Response

I'm so glad you enjoyed the stay and it sounds like you we pleased with the amenities. Sorry for the faucet issue --the owner had ordered the parts to fix the faucet as the wrong parts were sent the first time. We will be getting it resolved this week. Thank you, and we will look forward to next time!

Happy New Year!

Havencrest is an incredible mountain rental home. My family vacations every year at different locations in the North Carolina Mountains-and this rental was by far the best! EverIt is a very large home and accommodated our family of 6 perfectly. This home includes EVERYTHING. The kitchen is extremely well stocked, all appliances/kitchen is up to date and functioning perfectly. The layout in the home is very spacious, and allows for privacy and gathering spaces. The downstairs game room/separate kitchen was awesome for the kids. We thoroughly enjoyed the tremendous selection of movies in the DVD library! The upstairs master suite was incredible! The location was very convenient, the views are breathtaking, and the home has extreme privacy. This home was extremely clean and has everything-no need to bring a thing! Everything about this home from booking to departure was perfect. Thank you for an incredible stay!

FAQs

WHERE IS THIS HOUSE LOCATED?

Havencrest is located in Old Fort. This home is approximately 30 minutes to Black Mountain and Marion, and approximately 45 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?

Havencrest is specified as "pet friendly" and dogs less than 40 lbs. 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.

WHERE DO WE CHECK-IN/PICK UP KEYS?

Havencrest is located in a gated community. You must go to our Old Fort Office at 243 Catawba Ave S to pick up your gate card. Driving directions to our Old Fort Office, along with access instructions will be sent out via email. Once you have picked up your gate card, you can proceed to the house. Please do not rely on GPS. We will provide you with driving directions to Havencrest from our Old Fort Office. 

Havencrest has a keyless entry system. You will receive a unique access code within 3 days of your arrival. 

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 IS THE SECURITY DEPOSIT REFUNDED?

Security deposits are returned within 30 days of guest departure.

WILL THERE BE FIREWOOD AT THE HOUSE? 

Firewood is not supplied by Greybeard. Some houses will 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. 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 Havencrest, but is offered via satellite. Streaming movies or music or playing internet-based games is not available. 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.
