We're looking to spend a weekend in April in the vicinity of Asheville. We don't necessarily have to stay in Asheville but prefer no more than 20 minute commute to downtown. I've seen the website for some cabins like Cabin Creek Lodge and others. We need it to be pet friendly, and sleep 2 adults and 2 children over 10, and stay under $200 per night inclusive of taxes, pet fees, etc. Does anybody have any experience (pos/neg) about this location or can recommend others. Have to make decision soon. Thanks for all input!

Did you see this link earlier? Looks like it's in your price range and is north of Asheville

Check out the bungalow at the B&B at Ponder Cove - about 25 minutes from Asheville and the innkeepers couldn't be friendlier - they love dogs! Asheville Bed and Breakfast Inn North Carolina Madison County. They don't allow kids in the inn (just three bedrooms) but the bungalow is sweet - kid and dog friendly.

Thank you, loves. I will check those links out. I have spent the better part of the day e-mailing some of the owners of the ones I found in Black Mountain and Weaverville, but sometimes, their restrictions on pets are ridiculous. We have a very gentle golden and we were planning to collapse and bring his crate with us. One did not want us to leave the dog in the cabin even in the crate, and the other one did not allow male dogs to pee on plants and wanted dogs carried until you are able to take the dog to the "authorized" dog area? I mean, I'm supposed to carry a 54 lb dog so he does not raise his leg on shrubs??? And why for the life of me I can't leave a dog in a crate is beyond me! I am getting so frustrated that I may have to board the dog here in Fort Mill, which I really don't want to do since he would enjoy the mountains and lakes so much. I have heard that there are many pet friendly establishments...I mean this dog does not even pee in his own backyard! Okay...enough of my rant...just really peeved at this point!

Ponder Cove will let you leave the pet in the room if you have him in a crate.
Have you tried VRBO.com or greybeardrealty.com? Greybeard has a great selection of rentals in all price ranges. My favorite is the Double Dogwood located in Black Mountain.....pet friendly, great location and reasonable considering what you get. Good luck. I have found many of the property management companies out of Asheville to be pricey as they represent higher end homes.
Looks like we are staying at Cabin Creek Lodge in Black Mountain. They had very reasonable rates for the accomodations. We are renting their Dogwood Cabin which has a loft with mattresses so the kids can hang out there if they want to. DH has decided we were not going to leave the dog in the cabin crated anyway, except for when we go out to dinner, so I think it's a go. Thanks for everyone's help. The other places were great romantic locations but some of them were just for couples and pets..no kids, so that's not going to work. I wish I could stay longer...looks like I am just scratching the tip of the iceberg and finding out how beautiful western NC could be!
oooh i have just the place for you and your pets. google swiss chalet rentals, asheville. we stayed there a few weeks ago and are going back in april. the cabins are located on the back of beaucatcher mtn on the tunnel road side. they are old but very clean. very, reasonable and right in town!!
