Great Stay, Quiet Neighborhood, but close to everything

This is a terrific place that is in a quiet neighborhood but still very close to downtown and Biltmore (maybe 10-15 minutes). There are walkable dining options (hosts provide extremely helpful info as part of the confirmation process on food and activities too). We walked our pup in the neighborhood and felt very comfortable. You can walk to Dunkin Donuts - but the Keurig unit and coffees in the unit may obviate the need.The Cottage has a living space and separate bedroom. It is well decorated and very comfortable. The king bed was exceptionally comfortable! There is a limited kitchen but we stayed with our pup and got takeout on some nights and there is a table and small fridge, microwave and Keurig - exactly as advertised. We also enjoyed the complimentary bottle of wine.Hosts are terrific and very responsive with helpful insight and accurate info.We would absolutely stay here again if we come back to Asheville!

Charming cabin stay

I had a short stay with my 2 dogs, in this charming cabin. Michael was great with communication and very helpful with recommendations. He made sure that I was greeted, and that I had everything I needed during my stay. When I wasn’t helping my daughter pack up her dorm, we explored the botanical gardens, good food, and long walks through the cute neighborhoods. It had everything I needed for my quick trip and beautiful weather for relaxing just outside my door amongst the natural beauty of the garden.

Asheville Mini-moon

The Flamingo was the perfect home base for our mini-moon in Asheville! We had the best time hiking, visiting the Biltmore, going to the Grove Park Inn, and eating our way around town. And we loved that our dog Griffin could join us!

Quirky Gem

Easy-peasy, clean, quiet & nice people! Gentle welcome to my dog appreciated. Walking access to Trader Joe’s & Whole Foods. We enjoyed Pisgah Forest hikes - about 30 mins drive. Bamboo in the area gave my Viet Nam veteran hub some shivers! But, nothing to do with just right housing.

Quick Trip. Was Lovely.

What an awesome place! It’s old. I’m guessing circa 1920-1930. But it’s been tastefully, artistically, and efficiently renovated. We were very comfortable. The hosts are wonderful. The neighborhood is dog-walkable and close to everything downtown. What a great City Asheville is; and, this place is a jewel in the box.

Two Thumbs Up!

I had a wonderful stay at this VRBO in North Asheville! The location was fantastic—quiet yet conveniently close to everything I needed. The space was perfect for me and my pup, with all the amenities to make us comfortable. The hosts were incredibly responsive and made the whole experience seamless. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would return. I highly recommend it!

Adorable property and very dog friendly!The hosts made sure we had everything we needed and were very kind and responsive. Nice neighborhood and several good restaurants very close. Would have been walking distance if the weather was warm. The property was only about a 15 minute drive to the Biltmore. It was a pleasure to be in Asheville again after 20 years.

Charming cottage

Adorable cottage, perfectly situated within walking distance to restaurants and the downtown area for shops and breweries as well as a short driving distance to other attractions such as the Biltmore. The cottage is small, but perfect with thoughtful touches left such as a bottle of wine and multiple flavors of coffee. We had the opportunity to chat before arrival and during the stay with one of the owners, Mike, and he was charming and kind. Would recommend this cottage!

Christmas at the Biltmore

The Cottage was a very convenient location for all things Asheville. Easy access to hiking/biking trails. We tried a few of our host recommended restaurants and really enjoyed them. We loved the Christmas tour at the Biltmore. Highly recommend The Cottage as a location if you are visiting Asheville.

Absolutely Spectacular

The cottage we stayed in is so perfect & cute! Our hosts were very communicative and quick to respond. The complimentary wine, waters, and treats for our fur babies were so appreciated. The cottage was clean, and had all amenities we needed, including a coffee bar which was so nice! The neighborhood is cute, and the neighbors were friendly as can be. Very ideal location close to downtown Asheville & Omni park grove. The list of open restaurants and coffee shops was very helpful during this time and we really loved being able to enjoy our stay here.
