Summary: The house was clean, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the view and, Wes the owner, made sure we had everything we needed. He even brought some cinnamon rolls to the house! The Catawba Falls Trail was our favorite and it’s close to the house. Highly recommend!

Summary: This rental exceeded my expectations. Our group included 20 family members -children through adult. The house was beautiful and very comfortable. There was enough room for all of us to relax, visit and eat. The owner (Wes) was nearby and always available. But we never needed anything as the house was completely furnished with dishes, kitchen appliances, games etc. The home is up the hill from the main road so the views are spectacular. It didn't take long to get to the town of Black Mountain or Ashville. My family and I highly recommend this property.

Summary: The house was spectacular both inside and out. The rooms and layout are much bigger than what the pictures show. The homeowner was very resourceful. Do take note that the house is at the top of the mountain, it is beautiful, but also 25-30 minutes up or down the mountain.
Rebecca R. Jan 24, 2023 01:00:47 PM
Summary: We so enjoyed our stay. The home was a perfect place for our large family to gather and enjoy each other, and the hosts were so helpful. They really thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and fun. We even hired a photographer to come and take photos of our family, and the back patio made for beautiful pictures! Highly recommend!

Summary: Spent Thanksgiving with my family at this wonderful property. So peaceful. The house has everything you need. We took advantage of the private trailhead to go view the Upper Catawba Waterfall. What an awesome site. The trail is not easy but still doable for most able body adults and teens. There is another smaller waterfall that is easier to get to if you if you are not comfortable with maneuvering heights. The hot tub was was a great treat after our hike. The house is high enough to be away from light pollution so the sky lights up at night with a heavenly light show of stars. Even saw a shooting star while we were gazing. Plenty of space and games in house. Thank you to the Hubbard's for such a great weekend filled with family memories.

Summary: Our group of 18 friends had a great stay at this house. The house was clean, spacious (we even had some extra sleeping spots), well stocked, and beautiful. We had everything we needed and would definitely recommend! Thanks for everything!
Susan B. Jan 21, 2022 01:00:28 PM
Summary: It was an incredible getaway for our entire family to celebrate the new year. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space yet be together at the same time. The kitchen was fully stocked with any item you could possibly need. We especially liked how all the cabinets were labeled, as well as all the light switches. The owners were extremely accommodating to our every need ... most importantly when we had the danger of a snowstorm headed our way. We truly appreciated their hospitality and will definitely like to come back again .... the view was incredible and the nearby hiking trail wonderful. Thank you Wes & Susan!

Summary: Our family of three generations rated this our favorite mountain property—and we’ve rented several good ones in the past. The property offers numerous gathering spaces but still feels like a home; the family shuffleboard tournament was great evening entertainment. Do take care hiking the Catawba Falls Trail from this high end—the drops are quite steep. Our group elected to hike all the way to the bottom trailhead parking lot for a pickup rather than chance getting caught at dusk in a slow climb back up.
Grant B. Nov 24, 2021 01:00:30 PM
Summary: The property was beautiful. However, the host walked into the house uninvited several times throughout the weekend. He also watched the house and would text us when we simply had a window open to enjoy the fall weather. Completely unacceptable intrusive behavior and put a damper on the trip.

Summary: Location of this property is unbelievable and boy were we blown away. I have stayed at so many properties and this one stands out as one of the most memorable places. We all want to come back and will be planning more stays at Bama Bear! Wess, the property manager/owner, went above and beyond hosting us, from waiting till we arrived and walking us around the property to checking on us daily to see how we were doing and if there was anything we needed. Donuts treat on one morning was something special for kids. He was just the sweetest and the most hospitable person you'd ever meet. The property itself is absolutely amazing, from the moment you walk in and seeing how close you are to the mountains, which btw is a million dollar view. The house is very spacious, very well maintained, spotless clean, and had everything you could think of. The kitchen is extremely well stocked. The bathrooms are very clean and towels and toiletries are well kept. The linens in the bedrooms are clean and the place is spick and span. The property offered everything for all ages. When we were inside, adults hung out in the open space while the kids played downstairs. When outside, you could hike to Catawba Falls, enjoy fire pit or spend time in hot tub. Wess and Susan, you were awesome and have an amazing place. We will be back. Thanks for sharing your beautiful house with us.
