Have the Best of Both: Quick Access to Downtown Brevard & Pisgah Forest.

We hope you enjoy our open floor plan and modern theme and that it’s a nice place to land after a day enjoying the outdoors or whatever brings you to Brevard. Whether it is biking, hiking, fishing, or enjoying the small mountain town feel this house gives you super easy access to it all.

🔹1 King bedroom, spacious, with attached bathroom with shower.
🔹2 Queen bedrooms
🔹1 bathtub/ shower bathroom
🔹 Laundry room
🔹Open kitchen/dining/ living area
🔹Fenced in backyard with fire pit and picnic table

▪️Centrally located and within walking distance to restaurants, grocery, coffee, pharmacy.
▪️Surprising, modest mountain view for a central location from the front of the house and limited seasonally the back deck.
▪️Home is NOT nestled in the forest and does not require any special vehicle to get to the location.

🚲 Approx. 1 mile to Downtown Brevard.
🚲 Approx. 2.5-3 miles to Pisgah Forest.
🚲 Approx. 14 miles to DuPont.
🚲Easy access to the Brevard Bike Path, 100 yards away from the house.
⛰🏙 32 miles to Downtown Asheville

Enjoy coming to our new home, offering a relaxing and clutter-free environment for your getaway fishing, hiking, mountain biking and/or time visiting friends and family in town.

Wake and enjoy a cup of coffee on the front porch looking out to the distance over the homes and businesses and seeing the mountains of Pisgah National Forest.

Don’t want to make coffee or breakfast? Walk from the house to nearby Dunkin’ Donuts or Starbucks to start your day.

If not wanting a chain, I recommend riding/driving to downtown to support Cup and Saucer (1.9 mile drive/ 1.2 mile walk) or The Sunrise Cafe (1 mile drive/0.9 miles walk) or the Velvet Cup Coffee Cart outside The Hub at the entrance to Pisgah National Forest (2.4 miles driving/ 2.8 miles walk).

After you start your morning, grab the river towels from the entry way closet on your way out to tube, fish, or play in the Pisgah Forest on Davidson River, any of the forks of the French broad, the more remote Cathey’s Creek, or the lakes and waterfalls in DuPont.

Stow your gear (packs, fly vests, helmets, gloves, knee pads, etc) away in the entry way closet using the tubs provided to help keep your gear organized and out of the way until you’re ready to head out for fun!

Brought your bike? Store your bikes in our backyard with a locked fence gate. Don’t miss the opportunity to use the bike path down by Walgreens to easily get to downtown, the Lumber Arts District, Oskar Blues, or enjoy a short ride on the bike path from our house directly into Pisgah Forest to hit some trails.

Whatever you choose to do during the day, come back and enjoy some time around the fire pit while enjoying time with friends or family with your drink of choice in the evening. Weather permitting, of course!

Raining? No problem. We have some games in the coffee table. Also, cozy up on the couches with a blanket enjoy a show or movie on our 65” Roku Smart TV with accounts to Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Prime Video and Hulu (please use the Chestnut House account choices) and access to other apps with your log in.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be within walking distance of Brevard College. The vacation home offers free WiFi and a kitchen.

It was a great place to stay. We came from SC to ride the white squirrel bike ride.
It was a great house. My friends really liked it too. We would of loved some firewood for the fire pit. But overall, we would definitely stay there again.

This home was amazingly well stocked for guests. The owner provided great arrival instructions. Shared how wonderful this rental is with my sister-in-law who is a realtor and recommends places to stay for out of town clients.

Relaxing Christmas Holiday
My family and I really enjoyed our time at this home. We were able to enjoy our Christmas together and also visit our family in the area. It was convenient to the local downtown area, Pisgah Forest and Blue Ridge Parkway. Also, MTB trails are easy to access and just minute away. We had an awesome time.

We had the best time visiting this lovely home! Everything is so well done in the house and the owners are super easy to work with! It’s very close to downtown Brevard, different breweries and a lovely little pumpkin patch that we found in the town over called Horseshoe. Will stay here again in the future!
