Serenity Escape

Beautiful location, quiet and secluded. We were easily able to drive to Asheville, downtown Black Mountain, and Chimney Rock during our stay. The drive up the mountain to the house is steep and bumpy but worth it. Exactly as described!

Beautifully secluded. I made the mistake of getting there after dark, but the description of how to find the house was easy to follow. Make sure to hit up the grocery store for essential items before checking in. Very clean and serene property!

The Luv Shaque' did not disappoint. Everything was perfect. The breathtaking views, the hot tub, the fire, and many more.

Amazing weekend at the Luv Shaque! We hiked Chimney Rock and what a beautiful view.

The cabin is beautifully restored and we especially loved the hot tub. The location offered a restful, healing weekend when we needed it the most.

We really enjoyed the hot tub, patio, seclusion, pretty drive out there, and the space overall. It’s a little bit of a haul getting down the mountain and to Asheville, if that’s the goal, so just something to keep in mind. It’s close to Black Mountain and there are plenty of restaurants and shops there that are nice too. Fairly close to the Parkway.

Erin M - Posted: 3/13/2023 - Stayed from: 9/16/2022 to 9/18/2022

Excellent communication and the place and views were incredible. It had everything you need for a quiet mountain top getaway!

We had a wonderful stay at Serenity Escape! It is truly secluded and takes about 15 minutes to go up/down the gravel road, which is worth it to feel like no one is around you. The electric charger is a great amenity, although we probably should have read the description better and not taken our low Tesla. The house has great views and is nestled right in the trees, which was amazing this time of year.

Beautiful area and not far from Asheville at all! We loved hanging out in the hot tub and relaxing! Perfect get away for my significant other and I!

Very tidy and lovely AirBnb cabin in the woods equipped with everything you need. A good bed and nice bathroom. Carolina Mornings is a great host and are there when you need them. We had a great stay!

Seth G - Posted: 3/13/2023 - Stayed from: 11/25/2022 to 11/28/2022

The hot tub is great, scenery and seclusion is nice, overall really cool location. The cabin has a wood burning stove which is cool and works well. You should be prepared to use if you stay in winter because the bedrooms do not have hvac units. Only heater/ac is located in the kitchen area. Cool cabin and great stay, black mountain is not far, although the drive up mountain can start to get tiresome. If you got out for dinner or breakfast each day.

Exactly as described! My partner and I needed a reset from our hectic life and this was the absolute remedy. Our first night we thoroughly enjoyed the extensive CD collection, it inspired us to start our own. We danced and drank wine with the fire burning while listening to utter classics! The views are drop dead gorgeous, a quick drive into Black Mountain and Asheville. For the most part we shopped at the local grocery store and were able to prepare great meals with all the kitchen essentials provided. As Floridan's we were nervous about the up hill drive but as long as you have 4WD you are absolutely fine. Hosts are very responsive and caring. We bring our English Bulldog, Hazel with us everywhere and she was also comfortable and right at home. As we left the Luv Shaque the mountain dew glistened in the sun and made everything appear as if it were covered in glitter. Something out of a movie, truly a magical place and would highly recommend for a getaway.

We had a lovely time! We enjoyed that it was secluded, although it's recommended to avoid driving in and out at night because of this. The kitchen is perfectly equipped with everything needed to cook. We also appreciated being able to do some laundry. The dogs definitely had a blast too. Thanks for having us!

We loved our stay at Serenity Escape. The homes renovations are incredible and it was perfect for our family of 3 plus 2 dogs. We enjoyed the hot tub very much as well as making fires in the wood stove even though it wasn’t really cold enough for the fires. The only tricky part was letting our dogs out for the bathroom, there really isn’t an area designed for this.

Amy H - Posted: 1/23/2023 - Stayed from: 12/28/2022 to 1/1/2023

Well great place and as described! The incredible view and hot tub

Beautiful, private house in the mountains. Can't wait to stay again

We loved the seclusion and remote! It was beautiful, we can’t wait to come back.

If you’re looking for SECLUSION, this is the cabin for you. It has amazing views and a cozy feel. You NEED 4wd in the winter/rain. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Katy V from Columbia, MO - Posted: 6/29/2022 - Stayed from: 3/16/2022 to 3/20/2022

Perfect little escape up in the woods, highly recommend!

Jack Y from Columbia, SC - Posted: 6/29/2022 - Stayed from: 3/24/2022 to 3/27/2022

The cabin is remote and beautiful. Little details welcome you and make you feel comfortable! There were extra towels and space heaters in the front entryway/office/bedroom closet (behind the door to the living room). Sitting on the screened porch and eating breakfast or watching the sunset was a huge highlight. We could only see neighbors by their house lights at night! And probably only 4 others houses around the mountain near us, if that. It was wonderful to be away from it all and surrounded by nature. The rental portal was easy and convenient and we screen shot-ed everything for offline use. Thanks for having us!

Katie Q from Washington Grove, MD - Posted: 6/29/2022 - Stayed from: 4/14/2022 to 4/18/2022

Wonderful stay! Very quiet and peaceful! If you want a place in the woods, this is the place for you! While sitting on the porch, you feel as if you are in the treetops! They have a game camera pointed towards the front door, which felt very invasive, but can easily be covered.

Amber D from Irvine, CA - Posted: 6/29/2022 - Stayed from: 5/19/2022 to 5/22/2022

My partner and I had such a wonderful stay here! This is a beautifully designed home with everything you could need. Our favorite amenity from this trip was definitely the hot tub, as its location on the property allows you to look at the stars at night. Overall, this place is in a perfect location for a romantic getaway. It's secluded enough to have privacy and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but not too far away from Asheville whenever we wanted to drive into town or explore other parts of the area. Make sure you read their detailed check-in/navigation instructions however, as getting to the property can be slightly tricky ( (Hidden by Airbnb) Maps does not work, but Apple Maps can get you almost all the way there). We picked this place on a whim, but I'm so glad it worked out. You will not regret staying here!

We celebrated our 5 yr. Anniversary with snow on the ground. Serenity Escape is a beautiful, relaxing escape and will be forever in our memories! Can't wait to return in warmer weather to enjoy the screen porch!! Fireplace and hot tub made it special!!

Trudy D from Chapin, SC - Posted: 6/9/2022 - Stayed from: 1/20/2022 to 1/22/2022

Beautiful and Relaxing. It snowed the day we left. A very nice surprise to wake up to. Can't wait to come back when it's warmer.

Serenity Escape gave us time and distance from our daily lives to grow closer to each other.

Katy T from USA - Posted: 3/24/2022

The property was in a great location and came with all of the necessary amenities and more. We really enjoyed our time here. The hot tub and grill were our favorite aspects of the property.

Tamia R from Irvine, CA - Posted: 3/3/2022

Had a wonderful time. It's incredible you all built this by hand and the love shows. We'll miss sitting in the hot tub under the stars.

Tamia R from Irvine, CA - Posted: 2/25/2022

"Everything was so clean, I mean spotless. We had everything we could have needed to start out with, which being 20 minutes from town, was very appreciated. Location was great, the Hot Tub was amazing, just overall great property. The guest app was easy to use and helpful. The check in process was great and smooth. The only things to mention that could be improved would be more seating in the living area and adding a washer and dryer for guests. Many people have already asked about the house we stayed at and which company we used to book our stay. We have already shared Carolina Mornings contact info with our friends and family. This home was the perfect size for our family of four and two small dogs. My girls loved the house too."

Katherine M from Georgetown, SC - Posted: 11/15/2021

Hello Katherine, Thank you for your feedback, and we're glad you enjoyed the home! In response to your review, the homeowner has added a washer and dryer for guests as well as additional seating area. We hope you otherwise had a great time at Serenity Escape and thank you again for your review!
