Nice clean cozy place only two blocks from the center of town. Great little wooded neighborhood, it was easy to make the short walk to Lake Tomahawk with our pups to get them some exercise. Very helpful and responsive host, we highly recommend!
Great location short walk to downtown and the lake. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Outdoor space was nice with a grill and fire pit. It is a duplex with minimal noise from upstairs guests. We will definitely book this listing again.
We were able to book both units in this duplex for a family holiday gathering. Certainly, we could not have found anything better located in Black Mountain. As the property description indicates, we were just five minutes from the center of this lovely small town and five minutes from Lake Tomahawk Park. All of us, including our dogs, enjoyed our stay in Take-a-Hike.
This is the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in. I’m mean CLEAN! Somebody give that cleaning person a raise. My mom and I stayed for 2 nights and loved everything about this place. We were in the bottom unit. Walked everywhere. Beds were very comfortable with plush sheets. Would absolutely stay here again.
This property was super tidy extremely thoughtful in detail for renter friendliness and perfect location. We enjoyed the clean unit , thoughtful details such as a first aid kit /ample firewood for the fire pit/ front porch swing and more. Walking distance to town and the ability to hear the church bells ringing from the property such a blessing. A gem of a place.
We stayed at this property and really enjoyed cleanliness and closeness to the shops, restaurants and near by parks and hikes. Property is bit small but accommodates four people comfortably. The communication with property manager/owner was easy and clear. I would stay here again if I go to Asheville area

Great location-not great amenities
The location is outstanding! 1. I received an email just hours before check-in time to inform me that dogs can NOT stay in a crate unattended. No sightseeing without the dog? Why not put that in the detail BEFORE booking? This is NOT A DOG FRIENDLY VRBO! 2. There was not one blade of grass on the entire property - it's all gravel. NOT OKAY. 3. The freezer had no ice maker and there are no ice trays. BIG NOT OKAY. 4. The a/c did not cool the bedrooms-bring your own fan. 5. Although it is advertised as a @ bedroom VRBO, there was an extra fee for using the second bedroom- WTH! Black Mountain is beautiful but I will go to the Hampton Inn before coming here again.
We stayed here last year and were thrilled to be able to stay here again. We especially enjoy being able to walk to Lake Tomahawk and all the downtown shops. Great overall experience.
Perfect couple of days!
Would not change a thing!
Place was better than advertised, clean , close to DT. Just wonderful. Can’t wait to come back Ken. When we do , we’ll get other friends to stay upstairs too.
I have many good things to say about our stay here but the one thing that stood out the most was that this was the cleanest property I have ever stayed at! Not a speck of dirt or dust to be found. The host was easy to reach and very accomodating. There are extra blankets and towels. The bed was comfortable. There are built in USB ports on the nightstands. The kitchen seemed well stocked with a nice gas stove although we did not get an opportunity to use it. The location was perfect for us to go exploring in town. I would definitely stay again if the opportunity arose.
Great location!! Pet friendly and very clean. The property owner communicated quickly with me and accommodated a short notice booking & check-in. Great spot overall.
The home was clean and well cared for. We brought our dog. They even have a dog play yard! Location was perfect! We walked everywhere - to Starbucks, breakfast, shopping and even a nearby lake.
Location and access to Black Mountain was excellent
Sorry but the front porch overlooking gravel stone versus lawn and just 15 yards from busy street was not enjoyable.
The overhead lighting should be on dimmers.
Never the less the location served us well as we were visiting to purchase a lot to build.and we’re successful.
This was the most perfect place too stay while visiting Black Mountain. The condo was perfectly clean and had every thing we needed., and was a short walk to all of downtown. Highly recommend!
We so enjoyed our stay at Take A Hike. The location you can’t beat walking distance to the lake, shops and restaurants. The unit was spotless! I’m pretty picky about where my family stays and we would book this unit again tomorrow if we could! Loved it!
Great place to stay if you’re going to explore Asheville and Black Mountain
We (my 8 month old daughter, my wife and myself) loved this property! About 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and a 5 minute walk to center of Black Mountain. Very clean, owner communicated almost immediately when we let them know we would be arriving later than expected and everything was as advertised! There were people in the upper unit but we never knew it! When we return- we will be checking to see if this place is available!
The property was charming and cozy....spotlessly clean and the location afforded beautiful views and convenience to downtown. My only regret was that our first stay was so brief.
