This home provided us, including our mini-schnauzer, with a comfortable stay in Asheville. The open kitchen and living room were perfect for entertaining our family for XMAS and New Year’s day. The hosts quickly responded when we reached out to them. It’s a quick drive to RAD as well as downtown.

Weekend Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway at this lovely property. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfy, the towels were plush, and we had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend away. Super cozy for movie and game night and close to downtown and the Arts District for good food, drink, and entertainment!

The house was perfect for our Thanksgiving celebration. Though I brought a lot of cooking gear - hey, it was TG- the kitchen was well appointed and easy to cook in. All appliances and the house in good shape. Darlene and Ray were incredibly responsive to our couple of questions and mad special arrangements to get us a couple extra chairs. Thank you! We enjoyed our stay!

This house was the perfect space and location for my family's vacation to Asheville and hiking in the surrounding Great Smokey Mountains. The house was very clean and organized.

Great place close to Asheville

We are in our 60s and traveled with our adult child and wife. The place was spacious for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked. The back deck was great for hanging out and grilling. The drive into Asheville was easy and Uber was readily available. Earth Fare grocery is close by and great for meat, produce, snacks, beer, wine etc…. And the house was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location, super clean!

Loved this house, especially the kitchen. They really stocked the kitchen with everything you could need. The location is amazing, super close to River Arts District and only 15 minutes to downtown. Only negative was the driveway is a bit tricky so take it slow. Very nice bathrooms, plenty of towels and very clean. This is the most well-stocked house I've ever stayed in. Highly recommend!

Great Stay

This house was perfect for our family of 5. Super easy to get to and close to town. (less than a 10 min drive). Stores nearby for quick grocery runs. New construction and everything we needed for our stay was supplied. There were even games for our family game night. We did white water rafting, hiking, and visited breweries. It was easy to get to each place from the house.

Nice home, location just okay (as advertised)

Everything in the house is new, very modern and clean. The house parking is tricky until you get the hang of it (would be much more difficult with more than one car). The location is close to many amenities (River, New Belgium Brewery, Downtown). As advertised it is on a busy road and right across the street from 3-4 houses under construction.

Our 5 day stay

The house inside was perfect. It was clean and nicely decorated and all amenities were provided. We were disappointed with the outside. You should do some landscaping to make it pleasant and provide "curb appeal". Also, the porch was not usable--kind of scary being so close to road without anything to block the view of the road. Some sort of shrubbery would have helped. One last issue was that we had some difficulty getting any real time news. Perhaps we just were not savy enough with the streaming provided.

New, clean & well-stocked

Very nice place a short distance from the main drag of W Asheville and not too far from downtown Asheville. Well stocked kitchen, lovely fireplace, great backyard deck. The only drawback- not a great concern- is that it is on a street with no shoulder- tough to walk the dog there. Also- no shops within walking distance. These are both minor. In general the place was fabulous.

Convenient Location

Convenient location within 15 minutes of everything you want to do in Asheville. Easy, keyless check-in and accepted a small, well-behaved dog. The patio was nice and the kitchen had nice appliances. Although the pots and pans really need replacing (if your not cooking, not a problem). The house is roomy but could use a deep clean, although it was clean aside from candy wrappers under the bed and smudges on the coffee pot. The primary bedroom was louder than expected due to the A/C and A/C unit being outside the bedroom. And, the mattress and pillows were very uncomfortable. Overall, good value for price.
