Upon entering this charming and well-appointed post & beam cabin, you'll be greeted with the fresh scent of wood and an open floor plan. Gather around the floor-to-ceiling gas stone fireplace after making dinner in the gourmet kitchen (complete with gas range stove, double sink, built-in grill/griddle, ample counter space, and 2 different coffee makers) and eating together at the dining table that boasts a front row view of the sunset. Throughout the home, you'll find large windows and skylights that offer plenty of natural light along with stunning views of the surrounding trees and mountain peaks.

On cool mornings and lazy afternoons when you'd rather enjoy the view outside, walk onto one of the two incredible decks. The newest deck triples the size of the original, and it provides the perfect place to take in the sounds and sights of the Lake Burnett Reservoir, while the second provides a shaded area to read your morning paper over coffee, get your morning workout in, or gather with friends and family at the end of the day to enjoy a glass of wine and share stories. This home is an ideal vacation spot for two families or several couples, as both children and adults will find entertaining things to do in this home. Downstairs, you'll find a bunk bed that is part of the den area. From there, you'll find an auxiliary/mud room in front of the laundry area where you can store your shoes, hats, and coats, or use it as a yoga room or overflow game room. In the garage, you'll find a game room with a ping pong table, ladder ball, and a second refrigerator to store your snacks and drinks for taking breaks in between games.

Premierly located within the private, gated community of Laurel Ridge, you're able to get away from it all while still being only 10 minutes from downtown Black Mountain and 25 minutes from downtown Asheville. Sky High at Laurel Ridge truly has everything you're looking for in a mountain retreat!

Thanksgiving at Sky High

Overall

The home was beautiful and much nicer than the pictures do justice. It was really nice to have everything that we could imagine available for cooking. It would have been nice to have a little more seating space in the living area on the main floor, but other than that the cabin was perfect. Thank you for an incredible stay!

Manager's Response

Thanks for the feedback on your stay at Sky High, including the recommendation on seating. I'm so glad you had a nice stay!

Wonderful Stay at Sky High

Overall

Our family had a wonderful stay at the home. The views are spectacular and we were lucky to see a bear enjoying berries in a berry patch one day. Our family enjoyed playing table tennis together and the boys loved the game machine. We also ventured out to High Falls and Jeter farms which were well worth the drive out. Also loved the prayer by the kids beds! Such a special place!

Manager's Response

Stephanie, we're delighted that you and your family had such a wonderful stay at Sky High at Laurel Ridge and enjoyed the spectacular views, the special touches throughout the home, and the black bear sighting among the berries. We appreciate you choosing us at Greybeard, and we look forward to welcoming you back to the area soon!

We were sky high

Overall

Wonderful property. Everything was great, and we had a truly memorable trip. The air conditioning did not really cool very much, but the evenings were cool enough for sleep to be possible with all the windows open. However, fly screens miss the top of the door by 1/2 inch, so insects can still get in. Only moths, but just thought to mention it. In conclusion, we were extremely happy all weekend - the kitchen was very well equipped, and the bed very comfy! Soooo peaceful and quiet :-)

Manager's Response

Marion, we're thrilled that you had such a spectacular and memorable getaway at Sky High at Laurel Ridge and enjoyed the peaceful mountain setting. We apologize for the issues you encountered with the air conditioning and fly screens; rest assured that we will pass your feedback along to our maintenance team to ensure they're inspected for quality control moving forward. We appreciate you reviewing and recommending us to future guests, and we hope to host you again very soon!

This house was absolutely perfect. We have rented several great homes in Black Mountain/Asheville over the years but Sky High is our favorite. From the breathtaking views, amenities galore, comfortable beds and plenty of space, this property did not disappoint.

Sky High at Laurel Ridge is a home definitely worth staying in. The home itself is beautiful inside and out. The views from the kitchen and living room are gorgeous. The deck off the side of the home is worth sitting on all day and soaking up the mountains that surround you. The view of the reservoir only makes the scenery better. All of the bedrooms are simple, beautiful and comfortable offering amazing views. The kitchen is well stocked for preparing meals that you can cook, while again, taking in the breathtaking views. The bathrooms are spacious and well appointed. The entire house is up to date and very comfortable and relaxing. There are many games and books available for use and the tv's all have streaming services. The town of Black Mountain is just 10 minutes from the house and has so many shops and restaurants to offer. Asheville is a short drive to many other activities. We have been visiting this area for years and this is the best place with the most amazing views that we have ever stayed. We did not want to leave! We will most definitely be back to Sky High in the future. If I could, I would buy this house, it is that awesome!

Beautiful mountain location. Truly relaxing place to stay with amazing views. Very well furnished, clean and very well maintained. Fully fitted and equipped kitchen a joy as we cooked in almost every night to enjoy the amazing view from the deck.

Great house all around. Love the whitewash wood paneling inside that makes the house feel airy along with the openess of the timber frame. I hear it has good views ;) We were there in early February and out of 5 days I think we saw a glimpse of a view for about 15 minutes. VERY foggy and just a fair warning if you are arriving at night in the dark, rainy, a dense fog with about 50' of visibility, and you haven't been there befroe-- It is a bit ominous. But all well worth the challenge. Roads were all fine. The house has a great garage area for storage and the kids loved the games. I have rented a lot of homes and this by far is one of the best appointed (especially in the kitchen). Really open gathering area on main level. Was a perfect fit for our family for a winter getaway and a change of scenery during the pandemic. Highly recommend.

1. This was one of the rare instances where the property exceeded expectations based on the photos. Our family was truly "wowed" by the cabin.

2. The location is the perfect distance between "away from the crowds" and Asheville and Black Mountain. We were very happy with the location.

My family and I stayed for five nights and did not want to leave. The home has everything, beautiful design and great decor. The views are spectacular and we found simply sitting by the fire and looking out over the mountains was something we could do for hours. Communication was quick and the house has lots of nice touches for an extended family stay. Additionally, the town of Black Mountain is very charming and filled with interesting, friendly people. We hated to leave and would come back again without hesitation.
