Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in French Broad River

Good communication and awesome view

We loved our stay at the creekside cabin! The proximity to the Oconaluftee Visitors Center (just over 30 min) was perfect for our explorations in GSMNP. The house is also very close to a Publix and Ingles for groceries, and local spots for gas, food, and necessities. Our days and evenings were spent in the NP, but we made sure to spend one evening on the porch alongside the creek - and it was bliss! The space accommodated us, our toddler, and our pup. It rained hard a couple evenings, so it was very handy to have TV streaming options available. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances and tools, allowing us to easily make breakfast and dinners. Hand washing the dishes is no problem for us. :) We hope to stay here again so we can explore more of the NP and Maggie Valley’s surrounding area! Highly recommend!

Greatly enjoyed our stay. The house was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. Plenty of spots to sit, relax and look at the view. Especially loved the screened in porch. Food delivery can be tricky for drivers to find, be clear with instructions for them. Would definitely stay again.

What an wonderful oasis of peace this Airbnb was. After driving long hours, we were so happy to have landed here! It was so relaxing and had everything we needed for cooking, etc. We didn't realize that there are two bathrooms and that, as well as the w/d, were added pluses! I was able to work remotely and the internet was strong. We loved the decor and all the design touches! It was nice having a door off the bedroom and places to sit outside that were private! We LOVED the garden hot tub that was also private and so relaxing. We walked into town on the first night to Pack Tavern & the food was so good and the walk was beautiful. We saw fireflies on the way home. The hosts went out of their way to make this Airbnb top notch & it shows. I left something at the Airbnb & they have been very accommodating in helping me get it back. Highly recommend!

Our stay at the Green Creek Shipyard was absolutely wonderful and exactly what we need.. a peaceful relaxing getaway! Our 2 highlights were the daybed by the waterfall and the front porch swing! And the indoor space was extremely functional and well-designed!! 1000% recommend staying here!!

We absolutely loved our stay! This Airbnb exceeded our expectations in every way. The space was even more beautiful in person—cozy, clean, and full of thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. The setting was peaceful and private, but still close enough to Asheville to explore easily. We especially appreciated the clear communication, comfy bed, and how well-stocked everything was. We left feeling relaxed, inspired, and so grateful for the peaceful atmosphere this space provided. It made our birthday weekend extra special. Would absolutely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a quiet mountain escape!

Wonderful place. Absolutely perfect. Wanted to buy it immediately to make it my own. Loved the history and the family connection. Treated it with respect as if it were my own. Beautiful.

Dylan’s home was exactly how it was described. There was lots of natural light and was very comfortable. We enjoyed the coffee machine and all the amenities. The robes and toiletries were a nice touch. Dylan was very responsive and friendly. We would definitely recommend staying at the hutch!

This is my second stay here, which I rebooked on the spot during my 1-night stay last year. I stayed 5 nights this time to attend a dance weekend at nearby Warren Wilson College, a mere 7-minute drive. The space was very clean and well equipped abd felt very private, despite actually being attached to the main house. The hosts were attentive and responsive to my needs and were friendly, helpful, abd informative when we happened to run into each other outside. Wildlife was abundant, and I really enjoyed watching whatever might happen along from my own front porch. Fireflies at night, birds galore, roosters crowing nearby, chipmunks, butterflies, and yes! I actually saw 2 bears one day, each at a separate time, wandering on different sides of the yard. One of hosts alerted me the day before that there were 2 in the yard, but I missed seeing that (he did send me photos), and the day I saw the bears, I sent him video and he sent me a photo of a coyote that had been out there earlier.

Don and the rental were fantastic. I can only wish that every Air BnB was done this well. Water on every table. The bathroom had everything you might have forgotten. The fridge had soda and water in it. Even had a Smores setup for the firepit outside. I will be back here regularly and Don's place will always be my first choice. Dons hospitality was world class. It is very hard to find genuine hospitality and Don hit it off the mountain.

We stayed at Lynn’s place for a few days while visiting family nearby. We appreciated the clear instructions and easy check-in. The Airbnb was very clean and comfortable- we were able to find everything we needed with ease. There are a lot of thoughtful touches that make this place special (we loved the towel warmer in the bathroom). Lynn was very friendly and accommodating and provided a comfy high chair for our 10 month old baby. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay in Asheville, and we're very comfortable in this peaceful setting. Kelle and Max have created a beautiful space to stay. It's very clean, well equipped, and all directions and instructions clear and helpful. Kelle is a famous communicator, and quick to respond. Many thanks to them for providing a space that enhanced our travel experience! I will be recommending this place to friends!

Our family is always grateful to stay at Mary Ann's beautiful property! We've stayed here multiple times now and hope to continue to do so whenever our travels take us through the Asheville area. This property is truly a gem - peaceful, beautiful mountain view, a tree swing, lots of greenspace for the kiddos to run around outside after long car rides, comfortable big beds, a lovely bathroom, cozy living room and lots of much appreciated extras in the kitchen like KCups and creamers, pop tarts, waffles, water and juice. And if you ever need anything, Mary Ann is super responsive. It truly feels like a respite for us along long family trips, like getting to stop at a home away from home. We love this special place! Thank you so much Mary Ann!

Susan’s place was quiet, clean, and spacious! The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room for our dog crates inside as well as a backyard and neighborhood for us to walk with our puppies! The sectional was great for movie watching at the end of a day exploring!

Perfect place to stay! My wife and I loved the space. Super close to downtown Asheville.

We loved staying at Lara’s. Because of rainy weekend, the mountains were especially lush and foggy creating almost magical misty atmosphere. We were able to build a fire every night. Kitchen was perfectly stocked with nice scratch free pots/pans. Lots of nature and little towns to explore nearby. Thank you Lara - we would love to come back!

Simon and Julia are super helpful and kind. The place was just as expected, kitchen was fully equipped, everything was clean - and beautiful views. You can hear the neighbors pretty clear upstairs - but you can’t do much about that - plus it was disclosed in the listing. So overall I give 5 stars to Julia and Simon because THEY were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING - super responsive, I will definitely be returning ❤️ p.s. my bro forgot his wallet in the bnb after we checked out and there was absolutely no issue going back to find it - they are a delightful couple.

"We had an amazing time, and the condo truly felt like a home away from home. Every amenity you could think of was available, and the bed was, without a doubt, the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on while vacationing. Unlike other rentals where you sometimes feel like a guest in a stranger’s house, this condo made us feel completely at home. Without a doubt, this will be our new go-to for regular weekend getaways in Asheville."

First time visit to Asheville and we couldn’t have asked for, and received, a more perfect place to see it all. Once we parked our car we never saw it again, other than a day visit to the Biltmore estate. Otherwise our entire 4 night stay in this property allowed us to experience Asheville on foot, right outside our door. Highly recommend this place!!

In love with this Airbnb! It was our little quiet space outside of the Gatlinburg chaos. We were so comfortable and relaxed and loved seeing the wildlife in the property (we saw four bears!!). Can’t recommend this enough.

Beautiful place to stay with an incredible view. It was quiet and peaceful away from the hustle and bustle in Gatlinburg below. If you’re not afraid of heights, you’re on the top!

I can not say enough about this beautiful little gem in the woods! It was so well decorated and all the little thoughtful additions, like a bag of local coffee and heated bed covers were just perfect and exactly what I needed for this get away to reconnect with myself and nature. I barely left the condo, because the view was so spectacular and how cozy the home felt! I was visited by a bunch of different birds on the cute patio where I painted a few of them as I sipped coffee and just listened to the breeze ruffle the leaves or rain shower that softly fell! Definitely hope to return very soon!

The space was clean and the hosts had clear instructions. The bed was very comfortable. Nice location as well; you can walk to restaurants in Gatlinburg.

My family had a wonderful time at Bearily Beckers! The perfect condo with the most gorgeous view of the smoky mountains! Bearily Beckers was about a 20 minute drive from downtown Gatlinburg and 40 minutes from Pigeon Forge. It was exciting driving up the mountain every day to get to the condo :) Everything was exactly as shown in the photos: clean and homey. Sue was a wonderful host, great communication and a detailed house manual which we appreciated! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!
