Mountain Escape –Hot Tub, Trail, Fenced Yard, Fire‑Pit + Winter Views!

A private escape with a hiking trail on property, hot tub, and fast wifi. This cabin is accessible to downtown Black Mountain - less than 20 mins, and Asheville, 35 mins.

“Words cannot capture the true beauty of the house and its surroundings; even photos fall short.” – Kerri

Moonlight Cabin is located on 8+ acres of peaceful mountain land and designed with tons of thoughtful details for families, couples, and friends. Spread out in multiple living areas, relax in the hot tub, or follow the short private hiking trail on the property down to the mountain creek—the perfect peaceful wooded trail!

Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen (featuring a KitchenAid mixer and All-Clad cookware), fast internet, and comfortable sleeping arrangements that include a king bed, an adjustable queen, and a pullout queen in the loft. Kids will love the twin tent beds, toys, board games, puzzles, and a fun property-wide scavenger hunt. The cabin also has kid-friendly cups, plates and a custom Moonlight coloring book to keep them entertained while you relax!

- Secluded Fire Pit: The fire pit in the pasture is perfect for quiet evenings toasting marshmallows under the stars.
- Private Porches: Sip your morning coffee or swing gently in the porch bed, tucked among the trees for complete tranquility.
- Dog-Friendly Fun: A very large, fenced-in area ensures your furry friends can enjoy the mountains safely while you relax. (Message for more info)
- Yard games including badminton, lawn bowling, croquet, and cornhole!

Looking for local fun? Black Mountain is less than 20 minutes away, offering boutique shopping, live music, excellent restaurants, and Moonlight's own immersive phone-based historical tour to help you explore the area. Asheville is 35 minutes away, featuring a vibrant art scene, renowned breweries, and unique dining options. Chimney Rock State Park views and hikes is ~50 mins.

It was such a relaxing, cozy weekend at this mountain escape! The road to the property definitely requires SUV/4WD and is a bit treacherous at night, but the property is worth the adventure! We had a wonderful time celebrating my partners 30th birthday with close friends. Close enough to Asheville for a day trip!

Amazing home and Laura is a great host. Best home we have ever stayed in with attention to high quality cooking equipment and all natural products. Unscented towels and sheets….no chemical smells like most homes that use unhealthy scented chemicals for laundry and bathing. We will be back. Thank you Laura!

We had an amazingly time staying at Moonlight. Your cabin is great and decorated beautifully! I kept saying "I would love to live here", lol. Incredibly clean and such attention to small details. Kitchen is well stocked, beds are super comfortable and the hot tub is great. We absolutely loved sitting by the fire pit during the chilly evenings!!! My only critique- although the property is "fenced in", it is not technically secured for dogs (at least my mischievous pup who likes to run). We loved it and look forward to returning!

Magical Mountain Hideaway

My son and I (and our 2 pups!) had such a lovely stay here for 4 nights from Atlanta. It is impossible not to feel at peace surrounded by nature, stars, and fresh clean mountain air! The local town is adorable with unique restaurants and shops and 15 minutes up the mountainside you arrive at the beautiful cabin, warmly lit, beautifully designed and built, with lots of little magical details that make it so special. The owner really went out of her way (like really really really) to make the cabin very friendly to children and to our dogs - both were cozy and delighted by the space and activities. My favorite thing was to sit on the back porch with a cup of coffee and take in the tranquil silence ... ahhh will need to channel that feeling now we are back in noisy Atlanta! Also will miss the hot tub! Overall a wonderful stay, in a beautiful place, with a great host.

Relaxing Family Getaway

If you are craving nature , peace and tranquility, this is the cabin for you ! The cabin had so much to offer that we were happy to just just stay there rather than going anywhere else. The inside had the luxury of coziness , you could stay inside , play games , watch movies , cook in the kitchen and still enjoy your family with the open floor plan. Outside lovers could sit outside on the back deck and listen to the lovely sound of the cicadas or Sit out on the front porch in the hot tub or the oversized super padded , comfy porch swing . Ohhhh and let’s not forget about the fenced in area with the fire pit to enjoy some smores while letting your dogs run and play or the nature trail out back to get your fur babies walk in. Let’s just say , we loved it so much we could’ve stayed here forever ! The Levay Family

Lovely, secluded home in a recovering area

The home is beautifully clean and well designed, as well as very well appointed. Whenever I needed something, it was always there. Including extra towels, paper towels, laundry soap, dish soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste. Good communication from the host. I imagine in the winter a 4 WD would be required but our front-drive sedan did fine on the long dirt access road.
