    • The Rose house has all the amenities one can desire; space, hot tub, full kitchen complete with spices, large master bedroom, massage chair, etc. When we arrived everything was clean and orderly. The drive to Asheville was only about 20 minutes with no traffic. We had a wonderful stay.

    • This was absolutely perfect. I was able to prepare dinner for several friends. Everything we needed was available. It was comfortable and a total home away from home. We were accomodated in every way!

    • We had a great time at the Rose Cottage. The house was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Stephanie and Robert have thought of everything you may need. It unfortunately rained at night and there were plenty of umbrellas for all of us (I hadn't even though to bring them). My daughter is a horse lover and had a great time feeding the horses carrots and apples. Had a great time and felt very welcomed and spoiled. Would love to return again.

    • The Rose Cottage was absolutely perfect. It truly was our home away from home. The movie selection was unbelieveable. Stephanie, you must surely be an interior designer. I couldn't believe how you managed to find all the perfect matching throws, pictures, and knick-knacks. We loved feeding the horses and were fortunate to be in town for the arts and crafts fair in Biltmore Square on August 1st. If ever in the area, drop in to see Julie in Hendersonville at the Revolving Arts Gallery on Main Street. She is so friendly and helpful at helping you find just the right gallery to see. There was so much to do that we didn't do everything we would have liked to, hence, we will just have to return again. Again, thank you, Stephanie and Robert, for providing such a comfortable home away from home. Bill and Carol

    • We just returned from our Asheville vacation, and it was wonderful. Stephanie and Robert have truly thought of everything, from the wonderful bed linens and comfortable matresses, to the baby gear, to the games and videos in the living room, to the umbrellas hanging near the front door (which thankfully we didn't have to use during our visit.) While we didn't see any white squirrels, we did get almost daily visits from the horses next door, to the delight of our 2-year-old. The weather was perfect for using the pool, which we did daily, and our son loved the "hot pool". Stephanie and Robert were easily accessible to us by phone when we had questions about the property, and very responsive to our calls. We will definitely be in touch when we return to Asheville next spring for another family vacation.
