We had such a great time at this property for my bachelor party. With 11 guys we didn’t feel crammed at all, as there are two great spaces to hang out inside plus a great back yard. Great game room in the basement, too. Made some great memories here that we’ll look back on for many years.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful mountain retreat! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful surroundings and thoughtful details throughout the property. The home was spotless, well-designed, and truly felt like a luxurious escape.The amenities were top-notch — we especially enjoyed the cozy fireplace, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and relaxing outdoor spaces. The sauna, hot tub and fire pit can’t be beat!!!Communication with the host was seamless, check-in was easy, and everything was exactly as described (if not better). This is the perfect place for anyone seeking relaxation, nature, and a little bit of mountain magic.We will definitely be returning and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable getaway in the mountains!

Staying at the Lily Pad was, beyond a doubt, our family's greatest experience thus far with a rental property. It was large enough to hold our party of 10 without feeling like we were crammed in like sardines, it was clean, the design and attention to detail was impeccable, and the location was highly convenient to all areas of Asheville. We loved all of the amenities, and felt well supported with consistent communication from Dustin and Jasmine. We can't wait to stay here again!!!

Fantastic stay!

We had an incredible time staying at this location. House was outstanding for large groups. We had plenty of space and several options for gathering areas to hang out together. The game room has literally everything you could want and more. The outdoor area is awesome with several gathering options, games, hot tub and sauna. There is also a fire pit. The inside of the house is spacious and clean with all the things you need for a comfortable stay. Location was an easy drive into Asheville and beautifully located in the woods, secluded and quiet. Highly recommend!

Great well stocked house for groups

Enjoyed the stay at this house. The game room was great for a night in when it was raining and the backyard was very usable when the weather was nice out. The beds were comfortable and the pictures online were accurate.

Great Place to Gather!

The place was as beautiful as shown in the pictures. It has great amenities when saying on site. Lots of fun and plenty of room to gather or stretch out. Also, just a short drive to downtown or other attractions. The host was very responsive and helpful.

We gathered to celebrate my mother's 80th bday. The house was very warm, accomodating and lots of activities and very well stocked. We wish we could have stayed longer. Would love to stay again in future.
