Almost Heaven Mountain Top Cabin

We look forward to welcoming guests back soon after Hurricane Helene temporarily paused our cabin rental. We hope that together, we can support each other and rebuild this incredible place we call home. Asheville is open! The water is on! We need visitors now more than ever to visit our restaurants and shops and enjoy the art and music. We are booking now for February and look forward to Spring already!

Our cabin is nestled in the woods and surrounded by wildlife, yet conveniently close to Asheville's attractions. A small brook can be heard trickling from the deck. Relax in the great room with a 55" cable TV, grill out with a brand new 3-burner grill, or toast marshmallows by the firepit. It's the perfect location for a little bit of everything.

The cabin is only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, Black Mountain and Biltmore Estate. Enjoy shopping, restaurants, breweries, Christmas at Biltmore, and return to your private cabin paradise to relax.

We’re frequently asked two questions by our guests: "Who decorated your cabin?" and "Who cleans your cabin?" These questions reflect the care and attention to detail we put into making your stay as perfect as possible!

The cabin features beautiful pine wood floors, modern appliances, TVs in every room, Wi-Fi, and a fully stocked kitchen ready for all your cooking needs.

We have everything you need for a weekend getaway. We provide coffee, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher pods, toilet tissue, shampoo and conditioner, towels, and linens.

Wonderful Mountain Cabin
We had a great vacation at Wende's Almost Heaven mountain cabin. The hosts obviously gave a great deal of thought into outfitting the cabin and provided everything a person could need, from coffee to lots of towels to shampoo, spices, pots and pans, even an Ingles card! . The light fixtures and cupboards were labeled so you didn't have to dig around trying to find things. The furniture and beds were very comfortable. A highlight was seeing a mama bear and her two cubs walk the balcony. I would definitely rent the cabin again and will recommend it to my friends visiting Asheville.

We had a really enjoyable stay. Everything we needed was there. Very nice secluded location with access to hiking trail right out our door but less than 30 minutes to all the activities we were interested in.

Wonderful birthday trip!
Took a girls trip for my birthday and we had a fantastic time! About 20 minutes from the city which is perfect if you want to stay in a cabin in the mountains. Clear instructions were given on how to get there. For sure need a 4 wheel drive vehicle but very manageable. My only note is that sound travels throughout the cabin so any noise (tv, music or conversation) can be heard clearly in just about every bedroom. Didn’t bother us much as we were there for a good time but might not be suitable for sensitive sleepers.

Great location to nearby Asheville on a mountain complete with its own trail and stream adjacent to the property. Accomodations were as described and the Hosts had everything labelled for easy access and enjoyment for the week we stayed. It is a cabin but was very comfortable and cozy. Great fun for a Spring Break!

Wende has thought of everything! The cabin is stocked with extra personal touches that helped make our stay even more memorable. She was quick to respond and easy to communicate with, especially when our travel plans hit a snag. She was very accommodating! We would stay again without hesitation.

Wonderful cabin a short distance from Asheville
We loved Almost Heaven! The cabin is immaculate, well-stocked, well-organized and so charming. The setting is stunning -- we especially loved the hiking trail that leads right from the parking pad. Highly recommended! One thing I'd note for future guests: there are three bedroom spaces, but only one of these has a door. The loft space has a nice screen to create more privacy, but it is open to the living room below and anything happening in either space can be easily heard in the other. The large primary bedroom takes up most of the downstairs level; the stairs down to this level drop you right into the primary bedroom. There is a door to the small bedroom, which shares a "jack and jill" bathroom with the primary bedroom, but there's no door between the stairs and the primary. Everything is beautiful and worked fine for us, but don't expect much privacy between the spaces.

Beautiful and quiet cabin in the woods.
We were there for our daughters destination wedding in Asheville. Just a 25 minute beautiful drive away. Secluded but safe neighborhood. We enjoy having our coffee on the porch and hearing the leaves fall to the ground. The owners were wonderful and surprised us with a welcome bottle of wine and note.

Great cabin!
Great remote location for a cabin. About a 20-25 minute drive into downtown Asheville, depending on traffic. Very easy check in process and very accommodating host. We had a college reunion about 20 years after graduating and had an amazing time in this cabin. Great walking trail, fire pit and plenty of places to sleep!

The cabin couldn't have been more "prepared" for our stay and I can't think of one thing I would change. Great cabin, beautiful scenery (complete with a few bears), and good people! Also, as a doctor I was very impressed by the extensiveness of the first aid kit! Thank you

Cozy and secluded forest location, but close to all the attractions❤️
This is our second family stay at the Almost Heaven Cabin and it won’t be our last! It just works for us-from the comfortable beds and multiple seating areas to the well equipped kitchen (including balcony grill and seating area) and the upgraded trail just steps from the cabin. Asheville, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Biltmore and restaurants/shopping are all just a short drive away. Wende is easy to work with and all requests will receive a prompt reply! Thank you! Suffice to say, we are Big Fans of this property!
