This is our second time staying at Jean And Doug‘s. We stayed back in 2019. This time we came with our five-year-old daughter and our nine-year-old dog. We were all very comfortable. The apartment is very clean and has all the amenities one can think of on a vacation. We always feel very safe in this neighborhood and we enjoy walking our dog along the babbling brook. Jean And Doug‘s house is a prime location. Close to all the places we intended to visit in and around the area. And the town of Black Mountain is just so pleasant. We enjoyed catching up with Jean and Doug. As always, they were very friendly and hospitable. Communication was excellent. We encountered zero problems on this trip. We can’t wait to come back!

Loved our stay at Babbling Brook Bungalow

Our hosts were outstanding and great communicators (before and during our stay). We had no difficulty finding and entering our VRBO. It was nicely furnished and very clean. The bathroom was spotless with fluffy thick white towels. We were welcomed with a binder providing a great deal of information about the bungalow, town, restaurants, etc. Plus our hosts provided a goody basket of snacks and candy. The kitchen had many staples plus popcorn. We were able to go on some great hikes nearby in Montreat and Catawba Falls in Old Fort. Plus, it is a short drive to Ashville. We really loved the town of Black Mountain and its stores and restaurant. We highly recommend staying in this great bungalow.

Doug and Jean are delightful hosts who have thought of everything to make their guests feel welcome to their beautiful carriage house/ studio. Walking distance to several dining spots for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or make your own meals in the well supplied kitchenette. Optional YMCA just steps away. Downtown Blacksburg just down the road. Outstanding and relaxing getaway!

Babbling Brook Bungalow

Everything about this property was very high quality. It's in a great location, very convenient to downtown Black Mountain, shopping and restaurants. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We arrived to find Jean's delicious homemade cookies, for us and our dog, and a welcome letter! The bungalow was well stocked with eveything we needed. There was also a wide assortment of snacks and beverages. The check-in and check-out process was easy. I would give it more than five stars if allowed. We will be repeat guests! We highly recommend Babbling Brook Bungalow!

Jean and Doug were great hosts! The property was beautiful. We walked along the creek multiple times a day, and discovered new things each time. There was some constructions being done, but otherwise this was a quiet little community.

Babbling Brook is perfection!

Peaceful, clean, perfectly positioned with more goodies than you can imagine. My son's favorite: the amazing oatmeal cookies. The pull out bed was comfortable for his 6 foot frame and I slept like a baby in the queen bed. The shower was hot and had a great shower head, all the linens were clean and comfy. Jean and Doug were easy to contact and so hospitable . We will be back!
