"The property is kept in great condition, and it’s so spacious! The view is unreal, the pictures do not do it justice. The road up was difficult but fun. Overall, I would go back and definitely recommend!

"As good as the pictures are, they don’t do it justice. It was a perfect stay for us. We had one day that rained off and on all day and kept us at the house and everyone agreed it was their favorite day of the trip. There’s plenty to do inside and outside. We just thoroughly enjoyed it! The kids are already talking about what times of the year they want to come back. It’s just about the easiest check in and check out process I’ve ever experienced too. Highly recommended

Family Mountain Getaway

Review Date: May 10, 2025

Vacation Date: May 29, 2024

"If you are looking for a place to get away from it all and reconnect with loved ones, this is the place. We chose Overlook Mountain Retreat for our first family trip with our adult children and their significant others, and it was perfect. There was plenty of space to escape and find a few quiet moments alone when needed, yet plenty of things to do together. We had pool and video game tournaments, roasted s’mores at the fire pit, relaxed in the hot tub, played board games, and took little trips now and then to Marshall, Mars Hill, and Weaverville. The house was very clean and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Be aware that the driveway is very steep. There aren’t tons of things to do in the nearby area unless you’re ok with venturing a little further to Asheville, but that was fine with us. Wonderful stay!

"Absolutely gorgeous view. Game room was a huge plus. I felt like I was at a ski lodge with all the wood walls and steep hills. Could not ask for anything more. Yonder quickly responded to any questions we had to make sure our needs were met. Would highly recommend as a vacation to just get away from it all and enjoy nature along with peace and quiet.

"The house was amazing! Unbelievable view. Everything you could need for cooking, games for kids, plenty of linens and bedding. They thought of everything. Easy check-in experience. Great communication. A little outside of town, so nice and private, but close enough to enjoy all the activities. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!
