About this property

Charming Mountain Cabin - 15 Minutes to Asheville

15 minutes to downtown Asheville, 15 minutes to Biltmore Estate, 10 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Fun and eclectic decor adorn every room of this unique getaway. Close to all the hot spots, yet tucked away in the mountains. Located on an acre of rolling hills with glimpses of mountain views. You won't want to leave this perfect Asheville-area oasis!

Great spot for a solo traveler, family of four, or anything in between. A brand new memory foam king size bed will ensure a great night's sleep. Large closet provides plenty of space for belongings. Desk in master bedroom adds room to work (if you must). A double futon and couch in the living room can be made into more sleeping space.

One bathroom, eat-in kitchen, and nice living room with brand new smart TV lets you to stream your favorite shows. DVD player, videos, and cable are also provided. Great back deck with outdoor dining table provides more space to enjoy the mountain air, eat a meal, or work on your laptop. Charcoal grill is available too.

Plenty of parking above or below house. Coffee-maker, Keurig, dishwasher, and all dinnerware are provided. The expansive level backyard is perfect for a fire, a game of frisbee, or bocce ball.

Get a real taste of mountain solitude with easy access to all of Western North Carolina's hot spots. An easy 15 minutes to Biltmore Estate and downtown Asheville. Want a low-key day in the mountains? Then Whistle Hop Brewery, Trout Lily Market, and The Local Joint are within a 4-minute drive. Hop on the Blue Ridge Parkway, just 10 minutes away. Need a day of self-care? Then Shoji Retreat (Japanese inspired spa) is only 17 minutes away. The picturesque Hickory Nut Gap Farm is only 8 minutes away, and beyond that some great hiking and views in Bat Cave, Chimney Rock, and Lake Lure.

I aim to go above and beyond to make sure my little cabin is clean as a whistle for all of my guests.

Cozy, bright, welcoming cabin!

Eleanor is a great host who responds to messages promptly and is a great help for when you need it. It’s clear she cares a lot about her cabin and the comfort of her guests. We enjoyed the record player, it was a nice alternative to television. The art around the house and interior design choices made the house feel lived in and inviting. It was the perfect size for me and my husband! I highly recommend staying here, we would definitely return and stay at this cabin again and again!

Home Away From Home

My husband and I stayed at Eleanor’s place with our 10 month old son. We reached out before booking to inquire on the noise level in the neighborhood and the proximity to my husband’s meeting in Asheville. She was prompt and kind with answering all of our questions. The house was so cozy and comfy and made us feel right at home! I loved how quiet the area was for our son to sleep at night and the star gazing was phenomenal! I would highly recommend if you’re visiting Asheville but would like the stay outside of the city noise.

I have stayed quite a few places through VRBO and others and this cabin is by far the best. It is so clean and comfortable and feels like home. The host is responsive, and seems to truly care and has curated a beautiful place to stay and enjoy.

Perfect Stay in Fairview!

We were so impressed by Eleanor’s home in Fairview. It was clean and cozy! Also, it was just 15-20 min from downtown Asheville, which was very convenient! We locked ourself out one night and Eleanor got back to us within minutes! She’s a really wonderful host and her property was a pleasure to stay at. We would highly recommend it! Until next time! Thank you!

Perfect Getaway with Thoughtful Touches

My husband and I recently enjoyed a quick trip to Asheville for a benefit concert at the Grey Eagle, and our stay at this cabin was perfect! The cabin was spotless, thoughtfully stocked, and even had fresh milk and half-and-half waiting in the fridge for our morning coffee. The attention to detail made us feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot and will definitely be returning!

Biltmore vacation

The location for Biltmore was fine. However, there is nothing around for dining out. We could not find a decent restaurant in the area. Really turned off by signage about trespassing. We felt unwelcomed.

Great Location - Great Views - Great Time

We had a great time visiting Asheville while staying at Eleanor's in Fairview. I'm grateful for the location as it's within close vicinity to all the overlooks in Asheville. We caught a concert at the Harrah's Cherokee Center and only had a 15-min drive back to this nice little cabin. The host was kind enough to offer us anything in the fridge or cabinets. There were plenty of dishes and utensils to make ourselves home cooked meals. In addition, Food Lion (which is great btw) was 3-min from the cabin. This spot was a win-win, we decided to stay one more night.

Awesome stay for 3 nights

From the moment we got there until the moment we left everything was awesome. The cabin was everything we expected plus some. We had one question for the host and she responded very quickly. Cozy and very good back yard. It does have quite a few stairs at the back door but that wasn't a problem. The king size bed was very comfortable. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.
