Upon entering this colorful & contemporary retreat, you'll immediately be greeted by the quirky installations that include a bright red candy machine, abstract paintings, mannequin feet, pillows with animals dressed as gentlemen, and a wall decked out in ornate and mismatched mirrors. The interior color palette seamlessly ties baby blues, fresh whites, and bright oranges together, along with funky patterns and textures, to create a bright and inviting atmosphere that will instantly relax you and encourage fun. Outside, you'll find an open-air deck that provides the perfect space to have your morning coffee or dinner al fresco while enjoying the beautiful views and calming sounds of Mill Creek and a hot tub that's perfect for soaking after a full day of adventure and hiking. Reflections is just a 1-minute drive and 5-minute walk from the quaint town of Old Fort. Known as the Gateway to the Blue Ridge, Old Fort sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is surrounded by lush forests and a diverse wildlife community. Old Fort's Native American and railroad history can be felt throughout town-including a hand-carved, 14-foot rose granite arrowhead on top of a 15-foot river rock with a concrete base featured in the middle of town. You can also find local-favorite Hillman Beer in the middle of downtown, with its savory burgers, gorgeous river views, and cold brews.

Within the mountains of Old Fort, you'll find Pisgah National Forest with over 67,000 acres that include hemlock forests, cove forests, bogs, and fens. Andrew's Geyser, Catawba Falls, and Point Lookout Trail are among some of the oldest and most celebrated outdoor attractions in Old Fort. Catawba Falls is a stunning 100-foot cascading waterfall, and Point Lookout Trail is a popular 4-mile paved trail that ascends almost 1,000 feet through the Swannanoa Gap. Take a short 15-minute drive to reach the neighboring towns of Black Mountain and Marion. Known as the Front Porch of Western North Carolina,? Black Mountain, boasts 3 local breweries (Lookout Brewing, Pisgah Brewing, and Black Mountain Brewing) along with novelty shops, art galleries, parks, and incredible restaurants like Foothills Butcher Bar, Louise's Kitchen, and Black Mountain Bistro. Visit the other small town of Marion and spend your afternoon exploring the new 310 District, an indoor shopping space that's home to Marion Wing Factory, Toonez Chop House, Marion Hot Wheelz indoor skating rink, Chances of Sprinkles Bakery, and several retail shops. Reflections is also just 25 minutes away from Asheville where you'll find the iconic Biltmore Estate & Gardens. Take a 35-minute drive south to reach the village of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, where you can enjoy family-friendly fun that includes a swimming beach, water park, twilight dinner cruises, boat tours, and boat rentals (paddle and pontoon).

Please note: Reflections is NOT pet-friendly. The home is near the railroad track, and it is not uncommon to hear and see a train coming "around the bend" into town-an exciting prospect for train & railroad enthusiasts!

Since this house is elevated on stilts, we enjoyed sitting on the porch listening to all the birds in the trees at eye level and watching the heron and egret looking for fish in the creek. The sound of the creek was very peaceful to listen to while reading, playing a game or having a meal on the porch. The decor in the house is very creative and colorful. We cooked most of our meals in the well-appointed kitchen during our stay. The bed is extremely comfortable, and the linens very soft. We will definitely stay at Reflections on Mill Creek again!

Walking distance to incredible HILLMAN Brew by the river, KItsbow has a bike shop and amazing breakfast burritos both 2-minute walk. Beautiful creek in the yard to enjoy refreshing your legs after hiking or biking. The sunsets are very sweet as you can see the sun reflecting in the water creek.

WHAT IS YOUR PET POLICY AND FEE?

Reflections 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.

WHERE DO WE CHECK-IN/PICK UP KEYS?

You will receive check-in instructions prior to your arrival with driving directions and key access information. You do not need to stop by our office to pick up your keys. You will go straight to the house and check-in starting at 4pm.

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?

This home provides an outdoor fire pit. 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.

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

Wifi is available at Reflections. 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.
