About Sherri Mansell

My husband and I have 4 children ages 12 - 25 and live in South Florida. We have vacationed in western NC for over 25 years where my parents have a home.

Sherri Mansell purchased this cabin in 2008
Why Sherri Mansell chose Black Mountain

We chose this location in Black Mountain because it's a very quaint town with great restaurants and so close to the city of Asheville with airport, universities and culture events.

What makes this cabin unique

What we love best about our property is that we are located in the mountains surrounded by nature but have the luxuries of home and only 10 minutes to the grocery store and other amenities.

Our two familys (5+4) had a wonderful time. The cabin has all of the modern amenities, and the sleeping accommodations are very comfortable. The property is also really nice, especially the outdoor firepit. There are a couple of nice trails on the property - perfect for younger kids because they're not very long. If you are looking for longer/more aggressive hiking, do some research to find some local trails.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: We enjoy hearing that our guests had a wonderful time and enjoyed the trails on the property. If you are looking for longer trials, we recommend Chimney Rock or Montreat trails, both 20 minutes from our property as well as many others in the area.

Fantastic!

5 of 5

There were 8 us over Mother's Day weekend- from age 16 to age 86. I can honestly say that every one of us was so impressed with the house, the amenities, the secluded property and luckily the weather! The owners were very responsive and helpful- We went into the village of Black Mountain, spent some time in Asheville, and a spa day at the Grove Park Inn- all very accessible and easy to get to., but in the late afternoons, there was nowhere we wanted to be other than back at the cabin- relaxing! The house had everything we could possibly need and everything worked! The one and only negative was the queen bed in the loft bedroom: a huge chasm in the center... which, after a few days took it's toll on my and my husbands backs! A new mattress in there would be the only thing I would change! The firepit on the island in the middle of the pond was great at night- making smores and enjoying the beautiful starfilled sky. The creek on the property made for hours of fun for us and the dog- looking for salamanders and chasing frogs- thanks for sharing this beautiful house with us- it was a very memorable trip! We'll be back!

Just wanted to also tell you that your "home away" was fantastic! Our 86 year old parents could have just sat out in the deck the whole time! It was truly a Mother's Day that we won't soon forget! We would like to rent again sometime this summer- just don't have the kids scheduled yet. We will check soon as I know there probably won't be many open dates!
Thanks again & Cheers !
Owner's Response: We look forward to hosting you again. Thank you for your review.

Wonderful Vacation!

My family and I spent three wonderful nights at the High Rock Preserve! We couldn't have been happier with our selection of this beautiful property in the Black Mountain area of NC. All the comforts of home and then some.

The cabin was incredible. The wraparound porch with rockers proved to be a popular place to hang out. The kitchen was fully equipped. The Wifi was an excellent touch! With six iPhones and three iPads no one was without a connection. The game room was a blast and the hot tub always brought blissful relaxation at the end of the day.

The owners, Sherri and Larry Mansell were superb! They even sent out the property manager to check on us after torrential rains washed out the main road to town. Sherri even provided us with an email showing us an alternative route to Asheville, with pictures!, that proved to be invaluable to keep us on the go and able to enjoy the area.

I cannot begin to describe how much I appreciated working with Sherri in setting up this vacation, on fairly short notice I might add. She was incredibly helpful and very prompt in providing as much information as she could, including extra pictures, an area guide, and the email I mentioned earlier. She was amazing in her attention to detail and helped us spend quality time together in their wonderful cabin.

I cannot give a stronger recommendation for a property or owners that made our trip so special. Rest assured, this is a wonderful place. One we look forward to visiting again!
