Photos and Description of the Burnsville vacation house rental
2 Bedrooms + Other, 2 Baths, Sleeps 4

Located six miles from the quaint town of Burnsville and 36 miles from Asheville, this house sits on 10 acres and offers you the opportunity to relax and enjoy the mountain air. We are close to Blue Ridge Parkway, Penland School of Art, Boone, Mt. Mitchell, Sliding Rock, Grandfather Mountain and many other local attractions. Plenty of hikes and nature. This is a family home that is full of love and care.

The house has been remodeled in 2009 and all carpets removed and the original wood floors restored and new flooring throughout. New paint inside and out. New kitchen counters, sink and dishwasher. Lots of TLC given to this house. It has been in the family for over 35 years. New landscaping and a private vegatable garden and orchard of fruit trees planted to be enjoyed by our guest. A heating monitor installed along with a wood burning fireplace for those chilly nights.

Plenty of deer on the property and wild turkeys - just look out the back porch to see them grazing in the field behind you.

The town of Burnsville is a quaint town full of arts and crafts, great restaurants and shopping.

Grab a glass of wine or sweet tea and sit out on the front or back porch and watch the deer, wild turkeys and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Or cozy in with a fire and watch a movie with popcorn. JUST ENJOY!

About Owner

This is Jim and I at Roan Mountain National Park which is less than an hour drive from Burnsville and it had just snowed in the area. We love going to North Carolina to hike, enjoy the fresh air, the peaceful environment and just relax. There are so many sights and attractions less than an hour away and there is something for everyone at any age. We have family members with vacation homes within a mile from us so able to bring big groups up if we want.

Why Owner chose Burnsville

This is a family home that we purchased from my parents and has been in the family for over 35 years. There are seven children in our family and my parents needed a place to escape the Florida heat and a place to bring us for vacations and they fell in love with this house and Burnsville. They remodeled the home but kept most of the original structure and bought ten acres to go with the property. We visit the house as much as possible and always look forward to our trip to NC.

Charming Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: September 7, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Charming country home in the mountains.

My Aunt and I travel each August to the area to visit family and attend Decoration Day. This house was such a nice treat, we rocked on the porch many afternoons. The kitchen is fantastic and well stocked. The bedrooms clean and very comfy as were the bathrooms. We loved the hardwood floors and Karen was very helpful when I couldn't get the wifi working (it was me not the wifi).

Also, each day this huge, friendly dog visited us and became the receptiant of our leftovers LOL

I highly recommend this home if you are in the Burnsville area on vacation or for whatever reason.
Owner's Response: It warms my heart to hear how you enjoyed our 'slice of heaven'. If we can't be there so glad others can enjoy it. It is also great to have repeat guest such as your Aunt and hope you get to come back with her next year!
Thank you for the lovely review!
Karen

Easy access; 11 minutes to Burnsville. Cushy seating in spacious living room. Huge Sony TV. Well stocked kitchen. Two full baths. Restful queen bed. Rockers and swing on front porch; active hummingbird feeder. Saw deer and turkeys daily. Terrific value. Owners responsive to a few small questions. Good folks to deal with. Huge meadow to the rear; upward slope.

Paradise

5 of 5
Submitted: August 16, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
I am sitting on the front porch of the happy apple retreat. We've been here over two weeks already and we love it. The house is perfect for a small family. Just as described. The pictures show the property well. Very comfortable, clean, cosy and roomy. We felt right at home right away. Karen is also very responsive if you have questions. Staying here offers tranquility, simplicity and beauty. It's close to Burnsville for shopping, and to other attractions as well. The little valley offers nice walks, astounding views, and friendly neighbors (one brought by fresh vegetables). Down at the end of the road is a creek. A small trek to the right leads to a bend in the road where there is a trail that offers access to a nice swimming hole. Our son loved swimming with the trout. One day we had an interesting visit in the yard from a black (harmless) snake. We have loved staying here and look forward to coming back again.

An awesome little farmhouse

5 of 5
Submitted: January 18, 2011 Stayed: December 2010
My wife & I stayed at the Happy Apple Retreat from Christmas Eve 2010 until New Year's Day 2011 and had a wonderful time. What an incredible winter wonderland. It snowed almost 10 inches over Christmas Day and Sunday. The neighbors there are wonderful if you venture out. If you walk up the hill the views of the Black mountains are breathtaking. It is truly a home away from home and has everything anyone could ever want in the kitchen. We will be returning to NC sometime in the summer of 2011 and hopefully the "awesome little farmhouse" will be available again.
