Very comfortable and homey

Our group was celebrating our daughter’s graduation weekend from UNCA. The three bedrooms were perfect and the bathrooms were modern and clean. The kitchen- dining area fit our needs and we were had plenty of room to relax together. Be aware that parking is very limited.

Great communication with host. Didn't realize there was a lower unit that is also rented out but no issues with the tenants. Parking in the driveway is definitely tricky as is getting out of the driveway and turned around, but again, no true issue, just tricky. House was lovely with all necessary bedding, pillows, towels, soaps, etc. Location allowed us easy access to town or hiking.

Super convenient and a mountain feel

What a treat to be so close to everything and yet still tucked away against a hill for the mountain experience. Such a sweet deck, loved the beds and the shower. A great place to stay.

Such a cute place!

This is such a great place to stay! It's nicely tucked up in the trees and feels like a mountain retreat, but still close enough to downtown to get to experience the city of Asheville as well! We brought our 2 dogs and they were right at home and loved hanging out on the deck. Definitely a great find!

Asheville Marathon

My family (wife and adult children) stayed here on our trip to Asheville for me to run the Asheville marathon. We really enjoyed the place, and it was very convenient to downtown and all the wonderful places along the river. Communication with the host was excellent, and the house was very clean and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Mountain House Retreat

House is located just outside city in a quiet neighborhood close to everything. Roomy 3 bedroom and 2 baths were perfect for our 3-person friend’s getaway. Especially loved morning coffee on the deck. The house was immaculate and easy to get to. All the essentials and more were provided. Would highly recommended this property.
