A superb place for a weekend getaway is Black Mountain, North Carolina. If you’re interested in hiking and biking this is a can’t-miss vacation spot! There are plenty of Black Mountain cabin rentals that offer the comforts of home during your stay here. With gorgeous views and great mountain adventures this will be the much needed break that you’ve been after.

For the diehard golfer, Black Mountain offers a superb 18-hole golf course set against wooded hillsides and a small meandering creek. A quality course with conditioned greens, the Black Mountain links can prove surprisingly challenging, especially with the longest par 6 in the nation off its 17th tee box.

Hiking and biking trails abound within minutes of the Red Rocker, from up in the fringes of Montreat, to across Ridgecrest along the pass to Old Fort, to the trails behind Route 9. They vary in skill level, from an hour’s easy hike to Lookout Point, to an all day strenuous trek across the Seven Sisters mountain range.

Lots to do and see - the only difficulty might be deciding what to do and when, and how to squeeze it all in. If the thought is enough to weary a traveler, the best advice might be just to lean back in a rocker on the front porch of one of our Black Mountain cabin rentals and rest a while, until the urge passes. Either way, Black Mountain is the perfect place to make the decision.
