Property in Black Mountain-Paying
It Forward In the Mountains
I am grateful for
Carolina Mountain Rentals.
It was born out of a
simple need for a fun vacation near the Biltmore Estate. My searching, eleven
years ago to find a place to stay, which seemed harder than it should be soon
turned into a service of love and kindness, which is now called Carolina
Mountain Rentals. Now with the
intention to pass on the business to the next person, the process is again being
executed from that core honorable place called the heart as a “pay it
forward”.
It all started in
1998, when after hearing that Asheville was a unique beautiful place in the
mountains; I thought it might be a wonderful spot for a family vacation. I
remember the feeling of it being a logistical struggle to find the perfect
accommodation. My statement was, “there has got to be a better way”. From that
need sprung the birth of an entire Vacation Rental Business now called Carolina
Mountain Rentals.
I remember, like
magic, from the purchase of the first house, over a period of six months,
everything fell into place.
Carolina Mountain Rentals soon became the first Internet driven business
of its kind in the Biltmore Estate area with properties only fifteen minutes
away from downtown Asheville. The
locations appeared one after another combining to result in a beautiful
experience. Soon I owned three perfect properties The Tupper House, or “the
fairy cottage”, The Black Mountain Chalet, or home of the silver wolf, or The
Blue Ridge Chalet, energetically a native healing ground where magic happens.
All three locations had a specific one-of-a-kind message.
Their success
sparked a lot of attention. This
changed the way properties were rented for the whole area. Other cabin owners
soon followed suit by using the Internet to reach out.
Everyone benefited
from the birth of Carolina Mountain
Rentals.

It was clear to me
by listening to people on the other end of the telephone and reading the notes
that people left at the cottage and chalets, that my homes attracted people to
the Asheville area who needed that special something, a spark of change, or a
healing experience. The visit would
change the person’s life forever as it did for me. Whether it was a new way of
thinking, a long awaited shift of energy, or just simply a desire to move to the
mountains, every person got what they needed. Change, Change, Change, the
momentum was underway for all involved. Visitor after visitor would write a
special note in our guest books that would confirm that these unique locations
were providing a valuable service.
Black Mountain where
the cottage and chalets are physically located is the immeasurable added bonus.
It is a little quaint town comprised of antique shops, crafts, art, and music
and much more. Close but not too
close to downtown Asheville, the locations do not loose the charm that the
mountains have to offer. Grandma
seeing the grand kids for the first time can all stay together to experience
quality family time. Traveling couples remark that they are reminded of their
child hood when they would go with the mom and dad to the mountains. You know,
those precious times that are priceless.
Without interruption in the
flow of visitors, I feel it is now time to pass the torch on to the next person.
I believe, as the indigenous cultures believe, that you never really own the
land, you just hold it and care for it for a period of time. I am waiting patiently and with much
gratitude for the next owner to show up.
The business has a substantial monetary value, so the decision to give it
away rather than sell it comes from the heart. It is my intention that this decision
will inspire a positive change in the WNC real estate industry. My realtor has been instructed to add no
additional price tag for the business over the cost each property, as I have
chosen to “pay it forward”. For
those that don’t know what that phrase means, here is the definition. You give
something unconditionally with love to someone and that promotes a chain
reaction of kindness. That person then does something kind for someone else and
so on. The world change that takes
place benefits all.
