O.P.Taylor's "Big Game" house.

Lovely older home 4 blocks from town recently renovated. Three bedrooms, master with private bath and sliding glass doors to a large deck and hot tub for 8 people.Bedroom #2 has a 3/4 full size bed and a twin, bedroom #3 has a pair of twin beds.All bedding is new Jameson Marriott five star mattresses. The two guest bedrooms share a beautiful tile bath. The den has a full size fold out sofa bed for overflow, or kids that want to stay up late and watch a movie on Netflix or from our video library. The house is close to the Music Center and only 4 short blocks from the center of town so you can walk to great restaurants, shops and breweries. The backyard is fenced, well behaved pets are okay.

Quaint home that met all of our needs!
John and Susie were was amazing hosts! From the easy checkin process, to wine/beer/chocolate to greet us, to TONS of games/cards, and an awesome hot tub! Fenced in back yard was a bonus since I brought our little dog. Upon leaving we were asked to do minimal tasks which aided in us still sleeping late and gone by 11am! While we didn't use the bikes, that was an added bonus!

Looking forward to our next stay!
The house is centrally located within easy walking distance to downtown and the Lumber Arts District, home to a brewery and restaurants. Pisgah National Forest and Du Pont State Park is only a short drive away. The house has been nicely renovated, and was clean and well stocked. We found the beds very comfortable. The internet was a little slow but was useable. The only small thing I would recommend to the host, is to change the curtains in the bedrooms to blackout ones. We would definitely stay there again.

Our stay was wonderful! John and his wife are great hosts and stay in communication very well. The house is exactly how it was listed. Beds were great, cleanliness was exceptional. The game room was perfect as my son loved the three in one game table. It was a big hit. Best part of all I even enjoyed seeing a white squirrel in the yard. Definitely a nice vacation and a nice place to stay. I would definitely recommend this house if you want to relax and enjoy family fun! Thank you John!

We 100% enjoyed our stay and am so glad I decided on this house for our weekend in Brevard. We easily walked into town everyday for shopping and dinner. Then, walked to a bar and home from there! The location can’t be beat. Hot tub was clean and a relaxing way to end the day. So many towels and the home was very well supplied with anything you could need! Lovely!

Best place to stay in Brevard
This cozy home is perfect! I came with a couple of friends for a few days in April, came with a different friend for a few days in July and have just booked it again in October to bring my family. It's so close to everything in Brevard! Other than one trip into Pisgah Forest to hike, we didn't move the car the 3 days we were there. There are many excellent local restaurants as well as fun shops. The paved bike path is a couple of blocks from the house so we took advantage of that as well. Thank you, John, for the hospitality!

Fully equipped & very close to downtown.
A really great place. Clean, comfortable and very well-stocked kitchen with cookware and all basic staples. Large deck with hot tub, secure bike storage and only a few blocks from the bike path. Close to town and Bracken Preserve (but still quiet and private). Plenty of off-street parking. We did not take our dog this time, but seems good for 1 or 2 well-behaved pups-good area for walking.

Lovely getaway to the Big Game House
Thete are not enough stars available for communication with owner, he was excellent! We love playing board games with our kids, so this house was perfect! Had a nice hot tub, deck was a great place for breakfast and that sought after morning quiet time with my coffee. We loved spying out the white squirrel who lived in the back yard, he was precious! Not to mention the surprising visit from a ground hog!! The neighbors were very friendly, and it was in perfect walking distance to go get ice cream in the evening and perfect driving distance to go hiking in Pisgah and see waterfalls. The kitchen was well stocked so we were able to have breakfast and dinner nearly every day at the house to be budget concious. The location is great for both adventurers or home bodies who like to walk to historic downtowns. Highly recommend this house!

Great stay in Brevard
Big Game House provided a wonderful place for us to stay on our Biking trip to beautiful Brevard and WNC. The house is easy, walking distance to the shops and restaurants of downtown. However, you may not want to leave the house, as it is well stocked With games, foosball, bumper pool table. Very comfortable bedrooms and living area. The hot tub and back patio as well as the fire pit were great fun. We look forward to coming back to this property as soon as we can make it to the mountains again. Thanks for the wonderful stay.
