Beautiful location and a comfy home! The nod to mid century decor was just right! The view is quite nice and almost a 360 degree view of the night sky!

Great Relaxing Home

This property was clean, beautiful and perfect for our Girls trip. My best friend and I stayed at this home and it was wonderful. It was close enough to downtown Asheville to be at any of the things we wanted within 20 minutes or so. But it was also away from the town center enough to relax and just enjoy the piece. I have already mentioned this place to other friends and family and would stay here again if headed to the Asheville area.

Mid century cozy

Super clean, nicely decorated, well-appointed. We used the grill and back deck several times and thoroughly enjoyed the view. Close enough to everything we could want, far enough for peace and tranquility. The only thing we missed was a washer and dryer, but there was a recommendation for a laundromat in the house guide. laundromat in the

Family Visit

We traveled from the west coast to visit family in the area. This rental was perfect for us. It is as described, including the pathway to the door. We used the stairs at the back of the house to bring our luggage up. We especially enjoyed the beautiful views from the back deck. We may not be back in the area soon but would rent this house again if we return.
