Moonlight Ridge

Beautiful home. The mountain views are spectacular.

Moonlight Ridge is set up beautifully for traveling with a small group of friends or family. There are three comfortable bedrooms (on two living areas, which helps everyone feel like they have their own space to which to retreat) and a large, well equipped kitchen. We were able to prepare Thanksgiving dinner with ease; there is lots of room for multiple cooks in the kitchen, and we had access to every pot, pan, baking sheet, utensil that we could possibly want. It feels like someone who really cooks put a lot of thought into the layout and the equipping of the kitchen. There are three levels to the house - which is lovely as it offers a number of different cozy areas to come together to visit, as well as opportunities to spread out once the togetherness starts to be a little bit much. The entry level has the kitchen, a powder room, a master bedroom with en suite bath: as well as a large sitting area with fireplace, a dining area, and the kitchen. There is a generously sized, well furnished deck with a grill and a fire pit on this level. The next level has a second master bedroom with en suite bath, an additional bedroom with twin beds and a separate bath, a laundry room, and a very large family-room with generous sectional seating, as well as a game table ( which was large enough to accommodate a 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle easily.). There is a second deck on this level as well. The lowest level houses a pool table (fun!), a cute bar area, and an additional seating area. We found the communication from the owners to be prompt, timely, and informative. We did not have any problems arise at any point in the process - from booking, to arrival, through to our departure, everything was smooth and easy. The property was as described and was immaculately clean. I would 100% recommend, and hope to stay again in the future.

We could not have been happier with the accommodations afforded to us at Moonlight Ridge. It fulfilled all of our holiday trip expectations and then some. A must stay if you visit the Asheville area and surrounding mountains.

I've stayed in many rental homes through different companies and this house by far is the best-equipped house I've ever stayed at or seen. In addition to the traditional things for the house, there's plenty of extra kitchen towels, place mats, oven mitts, an unopened sponge, paper towel and so many more things. The house is great for a larger family with 3 bedrooms and 3 and 1/s baths with plenty of room to not feel crowded. Great poker table and pool table, loads of games to play too.

What a great summer retreat. Our teen and adult children loved having their own floor. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking meals there. And of course the view, oh the view! Google maps led us straight to the property and after two trips we could navigate it ourselves. Highly recommend!

The house was better than we could have ever hoped for. We had a great stay and will be staying there again next year for our golf trip if possible.

This was the perfect base for our golf trip to Wolf Laurel. Stunning views outside the cabin, but beautiful on the inside as well. Close to the club, spacious, great hosts, we couldn't ask for anything more!

Wonderful Visit.

Deborah W from Virginia Beach, VA - Posted: 6/30/2020

"Loved the house! Everything we needed was provided. It was quiet, plenty of yard space. Fire pit was great! The weather was just right to sit outside on the covered porch and enjoy. Would stay again and would recommend to others."

Gina W - Posted: 3/17/2020

Everything was clean. We appreciated the bath soaps and shampoos and the starter set of cleaners for the kitchen. The house and property were very nice and suited our 5 person group. Everything was clean and in working order. The hot tub and fire pit were nice additions to a lovely property.

Julia H from Westminster, MD - Posted: 3/9/2020

"We had a great time staying at this property for a family vacation in February. Two grandparents, two parents, and two teens plus one corgi. Our kids loved the hot tub, there was plenty of space to spread out, and the location was very convenient to downtown Asheville."

Maida F - Posted: 2/26/2020

Zero complaints about this place! Beautiful property!

"What a way to start a new year. Thank you so much for the memories, Moonlight Ridge. The snowball fights were ""epic,"" in the words of our 7 year old. We can't wait to come back! "

"Our family of 8 had a fabulous Christmas together at this home. The home is well stocked with linens and kitchen items. Large living area was perfect for late night movies and games together. Beds were extremely comfortable. Upstairs master is enormous. Hot tub was a nice feature that a few of our group enjoyed. We brought a Fire Stick which was nice to have. Previous posts list the issue with the walk-thru room to the other room. It didn't inconvenience anyone in our party but it is a bit odd and the front bedroom is limited with their privacy because of it. My daughter's 2 dogs really enjoyed the large yard to play in. Even though we were 15-20 minutes from Asheville, we got familiar with the drive and didn't mind it one bit. The grocery store (Ingles) is only a few miles away and had everything we needed. We got take-out pizza from the pizza place in Ingles' plaza our 1st night that was very good! We had 1 rainy day where we enjoyed the pinball arcade & an escape room (Conundrum) in downtown Asheville. We ate at Wicked Weed Brewery and the food was good (beer was even better). Don't miss a morning at one of the Biscuit Head locations. The gravy flight is worth the wait. We hiked Catawba Falls which wasn't too advanced of a hike (a few tough spots). We also hiked Bearwallow Mt. It was a more steep climb than Catawba. It had beautiful views at the top (wish we would have brought a bottle of wine & a snack to enjoy at the top). We ended our trip with an evening at the Sierra Nevada Brewery. The property is fabulous & well worth the drive. Their restaurant is nice but food is nothing special (it was ok). Great beer selection. A few people in the group went to Biltmore and recommended not to miss the winery after you visit the house (included in high-priced ticket...tastings were good). We had such a wonderful time in Asheville and at this property. A truly memorable Christmas! "

"Super clean, close to the city, quiet and spacious!"

Sharon C from USA - Posted: 11/11/2019

Accommodates a lot of people comfortably. Hot tub was a treat. Good bathrooms. Nice view. Great tv. Good location.

Ann A from Dunwoody, GA - Posted: 10/24/2019

A wonderfully maintained and clean property. We would definitely stay there again.

Kathleen W - Posted: 7/11/2019

This house was so perfect for our 3 families to get together and enjoy Asheville. We ended up spending more time at the house than the city because it was so great!

Elizabeth G from Jacksonville, FL - Posted: 7/10/2019

"Wonderful time in a wonderful house! We did a brewery tour, visited the Biltmore and did the hop on/off trolley. All great. We would highly recommend the trolley tour to get an overview of Asheville which is a fascinating city. Great house, plenty of room and beautiful views! "

Grace T from Woolwich Twp, NJ - Posted: 5/16/2019

"We were delighted to stay at Moonlight Ridge for our annual get together of college friends. We have been doing a trip like this for over 10 years now, and our accommodations here were among the best we have ever had. We loved hiking nearby on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and we all tried - but failed - to eat a whole biscuit from Biscuit Head. We will fondly recall the sunlight streaming into the house during relaxed mornings devoted to friendship and fun. P.S. - Go Heels!"

Elizabeth H from Baltimore , MD - Posted: 5/8/2019

We loved everything about this house. It was nice and large and perfect for two families of four. The upstairs master is huge and the bed is so comfortable. The large lot provided so much space for the kids to play outside. We would highly recommend this rental to anyone.

Amy G from Jacksonville, FL - Posted: 5/6/2019

"This was the perfect home for a weekend getaway! This was our first visit to Asheville and had the best time. The scenery / views are breathtaking! We had 4 couples stay here and there was plenty of space. We enjoyed all that this city has to offer from the breweries, hiking, downtown, and the Biltmore. We hope to return soon!"

Travelers from Virginia Beach, VA - Posted: 4/5/2019

Our group had an absolute blast staying at this cozy cabin over a three day weekend. The views from the house were gorgeous and the interior of the house was so welcoming. The house was just so nice to stay in! We cannot wait to plan our stay here again for next year!

"Teachers needing a break to take on Asheville! Thank you for having us at the beautiful home! We had a great time exploring Asheville, Black Mountain, and all of Western Carolina has to offer. We had everything we needed to have an excellent stay! #ThisIsMountainWind"

The T from Raleigh, NC - Posted: 11/26/2018

The property was very clean and we had no issues!

Stephanie G - Posted: 10/9/2018

"A nice property, nicely tucked away so you have privacy and feel like you are a million miles from civilization but are actually very close to Asheville. Not a luxury home by any means, but very large with a nice open layout and extremely accommodating for 4 adults. Everyone had their own space. Has a great deck with propane fire pit in a covered part of the deck surrounded by woods and views of the mountains which made for great ways to spend chilly after-dinner fella time. Steep driveway, but it is paved with a very large and flat driveway which accommodated our motorcycles very well. Best part about the home was how clean it was - from the linens to the towels to the floors, those details were really nice after a long day in the saddle. Overall, we left very pleased and impressed - I highly recommend. This was also my first time using Carolina Mornings and will not hesitate to use them again."

Please recognize the Carolina Mornings gentleman (did not get his name) who helped us figure out our TV ON CHRISTMAS MORNING!!! Over the top great service from that guy!

"The home was a wonderful escape from everyday life! It was also very convenient to all of the great hot spots in and around Asheville. If you are into craft beer, there are many local options to try and the wine tasting at the Biltmore is a great way to end your day there. The Blue Ridge Parkway is so close and offers man fantastic walks or hikes of all levels. Enjoy! "

Bryan G - Posted: 11/25/2016

"The location, condition of the home, furnishings were all wonderful - the views from the front deck were awesome. It was so quiet and peaceful. We loved being close to Asheville and Black Mountain and would certainly consider reserving this property again if we should decide to come back to the Asheville area."

"Our family of 7 loved staying at Moonlight Ridge. The home was beautifully furnished and many of the furnishings had been updated since the photos were taken; which was a pleasant surprise. There was room for everyone and we loved having the large yard for our toddlers to play in and a nice kitchen to prepare meals in. All in all a wonderful stay and I would love to return to Asheville, and specifically in this home."
