Great for a girls trip!

Stayed here for a girls trip and it was everything we needed and more! Big enough that everyone had their own space, but designed in a way that you were always with someone! The house was extremely clean and well stocked when we arrived and the Guest Services rep was extremely friendly and quick to problem solve when our AC went out!!! Would stay here again!!

Family Get Away

We were able to find a large, comfortable home to hold our 11 adults and 2 young children with ample room for sleeping, gathering and outside fun. My son in laws were able to use a private office to work several days and my grandsons enjoyed the theatre room in the basement. Great option offered which provided everything we needed!

Great spot for large group

Beautiful area, great location. Easy drive to downtown Asheville. Clean house, very comfortable beds, big open kitchen into great room, large dining room. Vacas was very easy to talk with and flexible for early check-in and a late check out. I would give a 4+. Just a few minor fixes and a deep clean would be a plus. Would still highly recommend!

Neighborhood Stay

Lovely home, would be great for a large family. Relatively close to downtown Asheville. Close-by restaurants. Big yard child friendly. We were thinking of renting next year for a month but the location was not what we were looking for, but could be perfect for others depending on expectations and needs. All TV’s, appliances in good order. Asheville is a lovely small city to visit, we’re very happy overall.

Beautiful home for a Women's Retreat

It's a beautiful home and very large space!! It is The home in a great location! Large enough for the 15 people staying there. The concerns were that there was not really enough seating for all of us to sit in the living room area together or to eat at the dining room table together. The front porch steps had a broken area that needed repair, the upstairs bathroom needed a new shower curtain because there is mold on it, hair was also in the drain. The master bathroom shower leaked as well.

Great House But....

The house is nice. The location is great. Beds were comfy. Kitchen worked nicely. Only advice is to be very careful out on the deck at night. The 3-4 steps from the upper to lower deck are very hard to see at night and no handrail to assist. Make sure ALL the outside lights are on for the best visibility of the steps. Dark brown steps on dark brown deck in the dark is not a good combination.

Needs lots of TLC

Sleeps plenty & clean. however, pretty worn out. not enough table space/ chairs to sit and eat or congregate as a group. (Inside or out) A/C not working, wifi spotty, kitchen tap not working properly. Not enough serving bowls, Only 1x bathroom upstairs for 4 bedrooms (5th room has master)

Nice, spacious home

My family gathered for my mother’s funeral & it was the perfect house to accommodate our group of 12 coming from out of town. (We brought 2 air mattresses & used the office space as well). About 10 minutes from the Asheville airport, it was centrally located between Hendersonville, where the church service was held, and Black Mountain, for the burial. There was room to sit & look through photos, dine together and take walks in the lovely neighborhood. There is a swing set that our four-year-old enjoyed and a nice terrace area with one side in the open air and the other screened in. The downside was very weak WiFi, and those who wanted to login to work during our stay or use streaming platforms experienced issues connecting. Overall, it was a good place for a family reunion.

Rooms modern and clean, loved the home! Just needs a little more kitchen wear for us people who dont eat out as much and spend more time in the kitchen. Made cooking process slower with just a few pans available. Also the ice maker does not work so we had to make a trip into town to get ice. Other than that the house and location was beautiful.
