Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Transylvania County

Had a great stay here! We walked to some great restaurants and loved the park. It was a beautiful place and we wish we could have stayed longer. The only improvement would be the directions for parking. The garage situation was confusing and in order to park in a Mint House parking spot you have to make a reservation and pay $15 to get the directions which share you must go into the apartment through the leasing office to get the parking pass and key fob to get in through other doors. You can only park in the loading zone for 10 minutes so I had to run around the building (while pregnant lol) use the code to get in, find the apartment, grab the pass and fob, and run back to the car to get in and park.

We love the location and we loved the rental itself. The only negative was that you have to climb a steep flight of stairs and you are right next to gas stations garbage containers that are not very appealing. Other than that, we would stay here again but maybe on the apartment on the other side.

I have stayed in Carolyn's units several times. She is a fantastic host and very responsive. The apartment had everything we needed for a week's stay. There are snacks too! We were at a conference with people dropping in for lunch so I particularly appreciated the extra table and chairs. I slept on the bed and sofa and both were comfortable. The lake view and access to the walking trail are perfect. The close proximity to Stuart Auditorium was a must for me. I highly recommend Carolyn's units and am already booked for next year.

We had a great long weekend with our 2 dogs at Lin and Russ’. They were both very friendly and personable. The listing was exactly as described and they had a lot of thoughtful touches and amenities. The backyard was perfect for our dogs. They graciously accommodated our motorcycle and trailer as well. The location is under 10 minutes to downtown TR and very convenient to stores and restaurants. Highly recommend staying here if you have the chance!

10/10 would recommend. The place is beautiful. Just like all the other reviews you’ll read so cute, very clean.

Great stay. The place is very comfortable, quiet and also clean. Kitchen is spacious and has all one needs to make a quick breakfast or light lunch. We loved our walks DT.

Great stay! Convenient location

We were so lucky to find this place about 2 miles from my Son’s house. After a short ride on some windy, hilly roads (not bad at all) we arrived in a lovely neighborhood. As hosts they were friendly and helpful and more than generous. They supplied breakfast foods, water bottles, and other food stuffs that were more than welcome after a long drive. The Airbnb was spotless and welcoming, bed (master, we didn’t use the other bedroom) was extremely comfortable. Of course the hot tub was a huge bonus that was also a welcomed perk. Barbara and Steve were there when we arrived and were More than gracious. From start to finish our visit was perfect. We felt right at home and access to downtown Weaverville and Asheville was a breeze. We will definitely return.

Condo was as described, clean and neat. Great value, great for people with pets. Highlight is the large deck overlooking the woods and golf course. Host was very responsive. Only con was limited closet / dresser space which was not a problem for a short stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Kim's place. It was very convenient to our son's wedding venue on Lake Fairfield. The area is so beautiful and Kim's place was very clean, well appointed and updated. It was easy to find and easy to access per the directions. Kim was always responsive to any questions I had and the clear communication was appreciated. We would definitely book again.

Great location and comfy bed! The bed is raised on a separate platform which does require a step down if you're a midnight wanderer so keep that in mind. Kitchen is well equipped with a very nice sink. the bathroom is nice with a good sized shower. Totally walkable to the restaurants in the area. Felt very private at the end of the row of condos with a nice tree view out the windows. The back patio doesn't have chairs so pack some in the car! We wished we had. If you like soft toilet paper I recommend bringing your own. 😁 Would totally stay again. We really enjoyed the stay.

Took the family here on our spring break. Kids had a great time. Very close to everything you could need. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nice area to stay

Everyone before me say it exactly as it was and Lisa place is where we go again next time 😊❤️

We absolutely loved our stay here! We came with our 4 year old and our teenager. Both of them had a great time and had plenty of things to do that they both enjoyed, which is not usually the case with their age gap. The place itself had lots of toys and books for my toddler and her own bed. There were also games to play with my teenager as well. The kitchen was fully stocked and the house had all the little details like beach towels, an airfryer, and a picnic basket. The screened porch was a favorite location for all us to enjoy. We even saw a bear one day from the porch! The resort was a blas!. We utilized both in the indoor and outdoor pools, the mini golf, and the lake. We had no problem finding good food at the restaurants around us and the store was super close as well. We spent half of our time at the resort and half of it out exploring the nature surrounding us. There were sooo many waterfalls to see. It is such a beautiful area, we will most definitely be coming back!

Great place. Big enough for a small family. Close to the club house, nature trails, and other activities. The host was very responsive, although we didn’t need to contact them as there were no issues.

Great summer vacation, the community has everything needed for a great family trip!

We had a wonderful few days. The house is beautiful and incredibly comfortable. We loved how open and spacious it is. The bedroom set up was perfect for our group especially having the twin beds and trundle upstairs. My young adult children loved the basement area to hang out, play ping pong, pool etc. We cooked each night and I loved how well appointed the kitchen was - big pasta pots, plenty of serving dishes and cookware.

Peaceful place. Beautiful. Remote but close enough to Brevard NC which has all you would need in shopping and restaurants

Our stay at Kerry’s place was great! We love Sapphire because of the amenities like Fairfield Lake and the rec center, in addition to being close to a number of hikes. Kerry’s neighborhood had its own lake (Whisper Lake) the kids could enjoy, which was such a nice bonus. It was a great place to relax at the end of the day. The neighborhood is also walkable if you don’t mind the hills. Check out Grand Olde Station on Lake Toxaway for lunch or dinner. We had a great stay and will definitely be back!

This house is fabulous! So pretty, clean and fully equipped with everything you need. The location is great, only 15 minutes to Cashiers and about 40 minutes to downtown Highlands. The drive into Cashiers is beautiful - past Christmas Tree farms! The area where the house is located is very nice as well -trails, a clubhouse, putting green and pickleball courts close by. The homeowners were great!

It was one of the best vacations I've ever had, a beautiful and complete house, a wonderful and peaceful place, lush landscapes, beautiful waterfalls, I want to go back to the same place in the summer to be able to enjoy the lakes better. I recommend it to everyone.

My biggest complaints would be we had booked for 8 adults and a toddler . We were left with only 1 extra roll of paper towels, no additional bath towels, and only one extra garbage bag for each garbage bin.

This wonderful house is less than a 10 minute walk to downtown Brevard. We had 7 guests, and there was plenty of sleeping space for all the adults, and room to lounge. The kitchen is well stocked with all sorts of cooking gear above and beyond the basics, which was great for our group. Beds are very comfortable as well. The home decorations are interesting and eclectic (in a good way) so it feels comfortable. The closet space and bathroom size varied from room to room, but was enough for our needs. This is such a great location we were able to watch the July 4th fireworks from downtown with a short walk! Would definitely consider staying here again.

The loveliest part of our stay was sitting out in the early mornings on the screened in covered deck with the fireplace ablaze, coffee in hand and relaxing with a cool breeze whispering through the trees. This is a place of comfy cozy…….stress has no place here, it’s peaceful and pleasing. My friends were so very pleased with this home ….thank you Dorothy for sharing your lovely home.
