Most who come to this area seek regionally famous attractions: Asheville, the Biltmore Estate, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mt Mitchell State Park, and the Smokies….all within striking distance. Yet, most who stay with us, instead, fall in love with our small, magical, sometimes quirky, town…Black Mountain. With its growing reputation as a small town resort, Black Mountain has become the most visited Asheville satellite (per capita) in the region, and an outdoor mecca. With Montreat village only 5 minutes from the house, offering quick access to pristine Pisgah National Forest trails, our once secluded small town has become one of the most sought after destinations in Western North Carolina.

We provide an 8 oz bag of local coffee, a selection of K-cups, and assorted teas along with creamer and sugar. The house has drip, Keurig, and French press coffee makers. For the kitchen, olive oil, Balsamic vinegar, and spices, a slow cooker, blender, and everything you need for full meal service and prep. A propane grill is also furnished on the 1st floor back deck with grill utensils and propane provided. c

Regarding household essentials, we provide paper towels, toilet paper, napkins, trash/recycling bags, Mrs. Meyer’s dish soap,  Cascade dish detergent, Mrs. Meyer’s Multi-surface Everyday Cleaner, Tide laundry detergent along with Olay body wash and Nexxus shampoo and conditioner in each shower.

In regards to the house, there is Smart cable TV with Netflix and Prime. There is no smoking or vaping inside, but instead please enjoy your smokes on the private deck. For little ones, there is a high chair,baby gate, baby bath, and a Pack n’ Play. For families-cornhole, board games, books, and a firepit and outdoor furniture with firewood provided.

For those doing remote work, a printer, dedicated workspace, and fast WiFi. 

For everyone else, a dry sauna and a hot tub at 104 degrees on our 1st floor back deck.

Check-in Instructions:

At 6 AM on the day of your arrival at The Spacious Group Getaway, you will receive an email with your front door keyless code, along with images guiding you to the property, parking, and entry door, making your arrival and check-in as seamless as possible.

*If you would like to purchase an earlier check-in at 2:00 pm, you can find this option in your personal Boarding Pass recieved after check-out.

1.INACCURATE GROUP NUMBERS:

We love groups! Please check to make sure that your overnight guest numbers are correct. Mistakes happen, so if the numbers are incorrect, please return to the registration window and adjust. This is for liability purposes with Buncombe Co (registered guest requirements), as well as, helping us cover the operational costs that are proportionate with larger groups.

There is a $100 per night per guest charge for groups of 7 or more. This fee is explained in the house rules on the booking site, but it slips by sometimes. The charge is $100 per night per person for groups of 7 or more, to cover the wear and tear costs of larger groups. If your overnight numbers are correct, ie if you have 8 guests and are registered for 8 overnight guests, then you’re booked correctly and ready to go. But if not, guest number changes can be made directly and easily through the webpage you are currently on.

In terms of who needs to be registered as an overnight guest. It’s fine if a friend or two visit for a dinner party, but for anyone staying for more than a few hours, which applies categorically to anyone staying overnight, then those guests need to be registered. This includes children of all ages.

2.PARTY POLICY: (STRICTLY ENFORCED):

AIRBNB AND VRBO have announced an international ban on parties, so planning a large group or after hours party here with unregistered guests, will result in an early checkout, and possible fines.  Please see #1 (above).

What are the parameters for “unregistered guests?”  It’s fine if a couple of friends visit for a dinner party, etc, but if that visit turns into more than a couple of friends, or more than a few hours, which applies especially to staying after midnight/overnight, then they need to be registered. This includes children of all ages.

3.SECURITY CAMERA:

For your safety and peace of mind the house is protected by a security camera at the front entrance.  There are no interior cameras.

4.OUTDOOR QUIET HOUR:

Black Mountain has an 11pm Noise Ordinance in place (12 pm on wknds), so we have an 11 pm (12:00 pm on weekends) quiet hour that we enforce.  It’s fine to be out after 11pm in casual conversation, or if the group wants to bring the fun inside after 11:00, great. And there’s no problem if the group wants to stay out all night by the hot tub if they respect the noise level. But it has become increasingly difficult for some groups to observe this request. So groups, please read the following carefully.

Because Black Mountain has an 11pm Noise Ordinance in place (12 pm on wknds), if a neighbor calls the police with a complaint, the police will contact the owner and visit the house. If this happens, the security deposit will be forfeited. If the problem persists, the group will be asked to leave. So if there is a possibility that anyone in the group has the expectation of being outside in the hot tub after 11pm, in a late night, party atmosphere, please reconsider. Cancellation is free for 48 hours from the reception of this message, no questions asked.  Should you decide to keep your booking and stay with us, thank you, and there’s no need to respond. We’re honored to have you and look forward to hosting your stay.

5.EV CHARGING:

Level one charging (120 volt exterior outlet) is available onsite.

6.PETS AND OTHER DAMAGE/SECURITY DEPOSIT ISSUES

Damages to the property during the rental period, may result in the loss of the security deposit.  Past examples:  evidence of pets (see below); damage to hot tub covers, damage to linens, furniture or walls: glitter, tape/glue/drawings on walls, etc.

7.PETS

The owner is an animal lover, but this is a no pet/hypoallergenic listing. After consistently battling pets being brought in by guests in spite of the No Pet Listing, we’ve had to firm up the regulations. If a pet is discovered in the unit, the guests will be asked to leave and the security deposit lost. What qualifies as a pet? Any animal that is not a certified service animal (see below).

*SERVICE ANIMAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Emotional Support Animals vs Certified Service Animals:  In North Carolina, it is unlawful to disguise an animal as a service animal, or a service animal in training.  Emotional Support Animals, comfort animals, and therapy dogs, are not service animals under Title 2 and Title 3 of the ADA. Violation of this section shall be a Class 3 misdemeanor. N.C.G.S. . 168-4.5

If requesting a service animal reservation, please  include answers to the following when e-signing the Rental Agreement:

1. Is the animal required because of a disability?
2. What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?

8.EARLY CHECK-IN / LATER CHECKOUT REQUESTS

Our new cleaning protocols don’t leave much room for changing the 3pm check-in or the 10 am check-outs. Our cleaning crew arrives at 10:15 and is usually working until 3pm to ensure the house is cleaned and ready before the next group arrives.

There is early check-in (2:00 pm) or late check-out (11 am) available to purchase if there is availability in the schedule. While we do our best to accommodate an early check-in or late check-out for our guests, in the event that we are unable to accommodate your request, you will be notified and refunded.

*If you would like to purchase an earlier check-in at 2:00 pm or a late check-out at 11:00 am, you can find this request option in your personal Boarding Pass received after check-out.

9.PRIVACY AND THE USE OF THE HOT TUB AND OTHER AMENITIES AND OUTDOOR SPACES

The hot tubs and all other spaces are not shared space.  Each townhome has its own hot tub and deck space with full privacy.  At times, noise from the neighbors next door can be heard.

10.NOISE AND PRIVACY

These new luxury townhomes were built specifically for the emerging vacation rental client who wants the convenience of being intown and yet, within striking distance of most of the top attractions in WNC, while being in the middle of natural beauty and mountain skylines. The trade-off is that these locations are not private individual homes in the wilderness, but are intown, townhomes. The designs employ the highest architectural grade soundproofing currently available.  But sounds, on occasion, do seep through, and you will be aware, at times, that you have neighbors. Privacy was central to the design, so 99% of the time, there is only the occasional muffled sound.

11.AGE LIMIT

Guests must be 21 or older to make a reservation. If it is determined that the guest making the reservation is underage, the security deposit will be deducted.

12.SMOKING:

No smoking or vaping inside the house, but please enjoy smokes on the outdoor private decks.

13.HOT TUB/SAUNA/STEAM SHOWER INJURY WAIVER

There are hot tubs, saunas, steam showers, grills and firepits, on the property which raise risks for visitors. As with any hot tub, sauna, steam shower, grill, or firepit, use at your own risk.The guest understands that these risks exist and is aware there are potential dangers to children who are not carefully supervised, as well as any person using spa, hot tub, Jacuzzi, sauna or steam shower too long or if a person has health risks, is intoxicated, using any kind of drugs or medication, or is pregnant. The guest agrees to waive any claim whatsoever against Agent and Owner of property for accidents or injury arising from use of spa, hot tub, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam shower, grill or firepit.  In consideration of my anticipated stay, and signing the attached rental agreement, I agree, intending to be legally bound hereby, that the property owners and their heirs, servants, agents, contractors, and employees shall not be liable for my injury or death, or the injury or death of my invited guests.

14.SIDEWALK:

There is no sidewalk in front of the house, so walking with small children to nearby eateries can be a challenge when there is traffic or at night. The nearest sidewalk is about 50 yards away at the end of the nearest street.
