Family-friendly holiday rentals in Mills River

I wish we could have stayed an entire week! The cabin is wonderful. Cozy, clean, with the right amount of magic to make rustic feel luxurious. Theresa and David are wonderful hosts and stayed in communication during our travel snags and cancelled flights. I am already looking ahead at my calendar and trying to decide when I might be able to return. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful spot.

What a wonderful stay! The yard is perfect for relaxing and for our pups. This stay has everything you could need. It is only a short drive to Asheville, and there is an Ingles market super close. Beth was very friendly and a great host. We would absolutely come back and stay here again :)

We loved our stay! Everything we wanted to do was in close proximity and the recommendations for food were amazing! Our stay was peaceful and the cottage itself was lovely.

Had a great weekend staying in Candler with friends! James and Netty were kind and communicative. The space was perfect for 4 adults and our dogs (fenced-in yard was a HUGE plus). We spent a good amount of time on the back porch and in the hot tub. Although we lost service about 5 min away, this didn’t present any issues because of Wi-Fi and ample instructions sent over prior to our arrival for navigating and checking in. Thanks for the lovely stay!

My husband and I came here for our wedding anniversary and had the perfect time there. It was very peaceful and quiet. The place was easy to find, very clean, and great quality kitchenware. We recognized a lot of IKEA items. We really enjoyed grilling steaks that we got at a local butcher right down the ride, recommended by the host. We also really enjoyed the very clean jacuzzi. This place was just 25 minutes from downtown Asheville, and about an hour and a half from The Pretty Place Chapel, where we got married. There are hikes only a few minutes away where we got to see wild roaming cows at a top of a mountain. We also took a drive to go see Dry Falls waterfalls and it was the most beautiful waterfall we have ever seen. All in all , it was a perfect getaway. Definitely recommend this place.

This was our second time at this home and we once again enjoyed our stay. Everything was great and we hope to be back again in the future!

Private and quaint cottage in a great location to explore the biltmore, arboretum, Blue Ridge Parkway, downtown Asheville, and more!

This was an amazing place to get away for some peace and quiet! Michelle was proactive reaching out to us about our stay and so kind and responsive to our questions. She remembered it was my birthday weekend and made sure to ask how we were enjoying our time away from home. The place was so cute and the decor was very unique (love the sinks). Very clean! Will definitely visit again.

This was a wonderful stay for us. High quality house, furnishings and amenities. The bed sheets were great. The showers were great. Theres such beautiful plants, trees and stonework. There were so many spots to sit. The book collection is second to none. My husband's favorite space was the basement with weights, reading nooks, top of the line W/D. We loved the gas fireplace and the kitchen was wonderful. We were close to family, downtown and a nice Ingles. Joy was in touch as much as we needed. True Southern Hospitality. We'll never forget our peaceful wonderful time here. We will be recommending it to family who visits in the future and would definitely stay again. Thanks, Joy!

We spent 3 days at Dawn and Ron’s Asheville home. Their space was very clean, smelled nice, and had every convenience you could possibly need. Unfortunately it was rainy during our trip so we didn’t take advantage of the outdoor amenities like the patio/grill or the goats, but they did greet us with wagging tails as we came and went! Loved the waffle bar and complimentary coffee - such nice touches that made breakfast a breeze! Also loved that they provided toiletries and washer/dryer. This space provided all the comforts of home, about 15 minutes to all the AVL activities. Dawn and Ron were very communicative and kind hosts. Would recommend their home to anyone!

Great location near downtown Brevard and right on the greenway. Large backyard with a little creek.

The cottage was a peaceful and comfortable accommodation in between tournament games at the nearby Buncombe County Sports Complex. It was also within a ~15 min drive to downtown Asheville for some great eats and shopping. The place was very clean, with comfortable beds, and all the amenities you would need for a home away from home. Would stay again!

We absolutely loved staying at this cabin near the river and close to town. It's about a 30 minute drive from Waynesville which is close enough for convenience but far enough away for peace and quiet. The area surrounding the cabin is stunning and private. Charles is an excellent host and the entire experience was well organized. We have absolutely nothing bad to say nor any recommendations for improvement. We would definitely stay there again 10/10

June's Cottage was just lovely and worked well for us and our pets. We would definitely book again. It was perfect.

We loved it! Charming, cozy and clean. Loved sitting on the porch, watching hummingbirds feed. The whole family enjoyed exploring the beautiful yard. Perfect place!

To say this spot was a gem is an understatement. I have stayed in places that have cost 3x this much in far more exotic places that didnt come close to the accomadating and kind nature of these 2 hosts. The home was beautifully clean and well kept and the garage was such a bonus for my situation of why i was there. I will make it a point to book with them whenever i am in the area even if im farther away.

It was immediately apparent that Robert's place was one of the good ones! It was a charming historic bungalow furnished and outfitted with care and thoughtfulness. Handsome antique furniture served us well, classic lamps and artwork lent elegance, comfortable furniture arranged to allow for easy gatherings. The kitchen lacked for nothing and the large antique wood plank table accomdated our extended family. Bedrooms featured comfortable beds and crisp linens as well as blinds on windows that opened and provided delightful cross breezes. The bathrooms were spotlessly clean and showers had seemingly endless hot water. We appreciated the handy laundry room. A back deck and patio provided safe haven for our bicycles as well as a barbecue grill! Mostly we enjoyed the comfortable screened porch . We spent every evening here enjoying the sounds of happy children at the neighborhood swimming pool as well as a spring downpour. We hope to return someday for the next family reunion.

The Lake house was one of the quietest and most peaceful air b-and-b's we have stayed at. The new back deck is the highlight of the lake cabin. The rest of the cabin is fully equipped and functional, but we hardly left the back deck. With its fenced in area and gate was perfect for the dog. The kayaks and dock are a nice addition. It is located close to good dining at Micas restaurant and Whiteside brewery. We came for the hiking in Panthertown area. We will be back again.

Great house and great hosts. Thanks.

This was our second stay with Jody and Shaun. They are the nicest hosts and we loved our cabin with its private porch looking at the woods. Perfect for a couples romantic getaway. They were almost finished with the construction of their pool but the fire pit area was completed. They are doing everything first rate so it will be fantastic when it’s done. We hope to be back again dome day. .

Nice and quiet location with ample room for 4 people. Enjoyed the many hiking trails on the property and Brevard is a quick 15 minute drive. Would stay there again.

We had a great time at the Lazy Bear Lodge! It was so nice to be able to relax and unwind for the weekend surrounded by the peaceful mountains. Lovely home and equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Thank you guys for a wonderful time!

Sandy was a great host, we had a wonderful stay! She had very clear instructions that answered any possible questions. The place was very clean and comfortable with a private balcony. Would stay again!

This is the fourth time I have stayed at Carolyn and Van’s. They go above and beyond to welcome and support. Everything I needed. Great view. Grateful.
