Mom’s 80th birthday

We had a great time here and the property is well appointed and nice. Each bedroom is large and has its own bathroom and shower facilities. We saw a bear family a couple times, So keep that in mind as you stay. The road to the house is winding and narrow, but we never ran into any other traffic so it was OK. Asheville is minutes away, so the location is great.

Perfect for a large group

We have a large group that comes to Asheville every year to check out the brewery scene. The Wayward Moose Inn was perfect for us. The property was plenty big enough for the whole group and having the ability to schedule a shuttle ride to downtown was an added bonus. We’ll definitely be looking to stay here when we come back.

Great stay for large groups!

We hosted a family reunion here - 20 of us from all over the world. The lodge was well appointed and set up for a group of our size. Gorgeous views, great location, well equipped and responsive owner. Loved that every bedroom had its own bathroom, plus multiple dishwashers and refrigerators. Would stay here again - highly recommend!

Perfect Mountain Getaway for a Large Group

The home was beautiful inside & out. The space offered was perfect for our party of 16 adults. It was amazing that each bedroom had a private bath. The gourmet kitchen, vaulted living room & dining room was perfect for entertaining. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Option for Family Vacations/Reunions

A wonderful option for a large family getaway. Convenient to downtown Asheville, numerous state and national parks, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Biltmore Estate, a small zoo, numerous breweries, and so much more. All bedrooms have an en suite bathroom, which worked out wonderful for us. Great communications with the owner, would absolutely consider coming here again.

Beautiful property, amazing house

This is probably the nicest rental property I’ve ever stayed in. The views were amazing, every room is spacious and has a bathroom. Highly recommend this place. Be aware that the house is at the top of a mountain on an unpaved road, so make sure you have a vehicle that can handle that. Simms and Hunter were both great and Hunter gave us a ride to and from downtown Asheville.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We had an amazing long weekend getaway with friends at the Lodge! The house was perfect for our group – the bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable, giving everyone plenty of room to relax (best part was each has their own bathroom) The place was spotless, and you could tell the host really cares about the property.We also took advantage of the car service for a group trip to Asheville, which made everything so easy and stress-free. The front porch offered stunning scenic views, and it was a perfect spot to unwind in the evening. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, making meal prep a breeze.Simms was responsive and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed for a great stay. Highly recommend this place for a fun, relaxing trip with friends or family! Note - this is a LODGE (no insolation), so noise carries. Folks walking on the second floor can be heard by anyone below.

This is a really great place for a big family get together. We had 14 people stay here, and it was very comfortable. It was great that there were so many bathrooms. The views are amazing, and we really enjoyed the hiking trail above the house. The kitchen was nice, with very good appliances.

Fantastic property in a great location.

The property is just as advertised. Beautiful and spacious with great views. Kitchen is well stocked and the ping pong table was well used. We even saw two bears passing through. Highly recommend the van service (the last mile is no fun in the dark) driver was punctual, friendly and knowledgeable you can just text the number and they will get immediately contact you.

Family reunion

I have eight siblings and their spouses. We used this Vrbo for our family reunion. This moose lodge was wonderful! Each of my siblings had their own bedroom and bathroom, which was very nice. The common areas were super! We had a wonderful time! The views, and the shuttle to various venues we wanted to go to was an added plus. I highly recommend this place.

Mountaintop Getaway

We could have spent all our time on the porch enjoying the unobstructed stunning view of the mountains, but with the services of the van at our disposal we felt compelled to do some exploring. Our hosts were great at suggesting activities and restaurants, which was much appreciated. The lodge was perfect for our group of friends, and had everything we could need or want. The trip up and down the mountain kept us on our toes, but is well worth it!
