Peaceful Retreat
Very nice property, convenient to East Asheville. The road to house was a little daunting at first but soon was comfortable. Beautiful wrap around porch for quiet time.

Excellent Communication
I had booked this property to celebrate my grandson's 20th birthday. As I was packing for our trip, I tripped over my cat, dislocating and breaking my ankle. My grandson and his girlfriend were meeting my daughter and I at the property. Although I was unable to travel, my grandson had a wonderful birthday. He said it was his favorite home we had rented and would love to go again. The location exceptional if you are looking to enjoy all the delights Asheville and the Smokey Mountains have to offer. Close to everything. I will definitely rent this property again so I can see how beautiful it is. If it is half as nice as he described, I know it must be a gem. I do wish to extend my heartfelt appreciation for the kindness, compassion and understanding of Rodney, the owner, whose communication during the entire process was exemplary. On this merit alone, any property they represent is sure to be a lovely experience.

Appropriately named 'High' and 'Windy'
The property was great, impeccably clean, and well-equipped as per the property description. The deck was very appealing but we missed out on spending more quality time thereon appreciating the view and the solitude because it always seemed to be 'windy' and a wee bit chilly. The drive up to the property was not exactly for the faint of heart, in fact the steepness and twists were a bit daunting at first but we soon got used to it. Overall we had a great time and were well pleased with the facility while communication with the owners was instant and very pleasant. JFYI the property is about 5 miles from downtown Asheville but it's an easy drive. Two enthusiastic thumbs up from myself, my wife and my daughter.

Sisters bonding time
My sister lives in Arizona & I live in Florida so we decided this year to meet in Asheville instead of one of us going to see the other in their home state. The home was perfect it was secluded & quiet and so relaxing essentially it was PERFECT!! Just what we needed!!!

Beautiful retreat close to town
We had such a great stay and the owners were very responsive to questions we had. It’s clean and in a stunningly beautiful location— feels miles from anything, but super close to the Parkway and easy to get into town. Beautiful sunsets, nice backyard for our dog to run. One caution, if you are arriving at night, the road is quite steep with sharp turns and some potholes. It’s less intimidating in the day, but not for the faint of heart (or low clearance vehicle). Otherwise, I have no reservations about highly recommending this place for a visit to Asheville.

Winter Stay in Asheville
Great house and perfect for my wife, dog and I. Reasonable rates, clean and comfortable. The owners, Rodney & Katie were very kind and responsive to our questions. The location was perfect for us, literally a 15 minute drive or less to everything we wanted to see in and around Asheville. Great wintertime views of the surrounding mountains. We would stay here again, for sure. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us! Take care, Christian, Rhonda & Hobbs

Short Birthday Getaway
This was the PERFECT spot for my boyfriend’s short birthday weekend! Location was ideal for tons of hiking, breweries, short drive to Asheville ect ect. The porch/outside area of this house is what drew us to booking & I’ll just say wow the pictures didn’t do it justice! Sitting on the back porch watching the mountains was a highlight of the trip. Rodney was extremely helpful with recommendations & was kind enough to let us check in early! We will definitely be booking this place for years to come.
