The house was everything we had hoped for. We wanted to be near Greybeard and the creek, and we needed a smaller house, as there were only two of us. Loved hearing the rain on the roof.

First, we love Montreat NC and this cabin added a comfortable stay for a family of four to enjoy the area. Also, the bed in the master BR was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on.

The thing I enjoyed the most was the overall feel and location of the cabin itself. I wanted the feel of a cabin in the middle of the woods without being in the middle of nowhere. I got exactly that with this cabin. The small town of Black Mountain was just a 10 minute drive away and they offered plenty of places to eat and stores to visit but I was also staying in a cabin surrounded by trees on the side of a mountain so I got the feel and privacy of being in the middle of nowhere while actually being really close to a lot of things

I had a lovely stay in this very rustic cabin in mid-April. Nights were chilly but the space heaters in the bathrooms and living rooms made it very cozy. I do wish the gas had been turned on, however, for the gas fireplace.
Manager response - Response from Greybeard Rentals
Great to hear that you had a nice stay at Brae Brooks. Thanks for your feedback! We do tend to keep fireplaces in operation from October to March, but typically, it begins to warm up in April there are definitely exceptions. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

We enjoyed our rustic cabin for a week of family fun. Staying in Montreat was delightful, and we found the cabin a great place to truly relax when we weren't hiking, running, singing or eating.

The cabin was a great way to spend a guys trip. Four adults had enough room without being too cozy. The cabin was rustic, but had the amenities to feel modern and comfortable. The surrounding houses were a bit closer than I expected, but not too close, still private. Overall it was a great trip to a wonderful place. There was a small mix up on whether the grill was charcoal or gas, but no biggie. Had a blast!
Manager response - Response from Greybeard Rentals
Glad you were pleased with the time! Come back soon.

We loved the quaintness, the simplicity, and the quiet that Brae Brooks provided. It had just enough amenities, but no more than needed. We have stayed here with our children before, but thoroughly enjoyed it as empty nesters! And very convenient to the conference center.

Brae Brooks was a cozy, comfortable log cabin. It was very clean and had all the amenities needed for our stay. The combination washer/dryer was a little complicated without the owner's manual, but there was a very nice laundromat in Black Mountain. We tried a new (to us) restaurant, something "Fresh" in a yellow building on Ridgeway Avenue I think. It was very good as was the Veranda Caf that we always go to for lunch. I would recommend Brae Brooks for 1 or 2 adults. There are bunk beds that could be used for small children, but I wouldn't want that many people in the cabin with me. I love the Black Mountain/Montreat area, and have been going for probably 10 or more years. Over those years some of my favorite restaurants and shops have closed, but many are still there. This was my first fall trip, but not my last. I love Ingle's grocery store!!! If they don't have it, you don't need it.
