4 Bdrm 2 Bath Home 2.6 Miles To Downtown Asheville & 6 Miles To Biltmore Estate
This 4 bdrm 2 bath home is located 5 miles from the Biltmore Estate and only 2.6 miles from downtown Asheville! You are only miles from the greatest attractions Asheville offers such as the Blue Ridge Parkway (10 Miles), River Arts District (3.2 Miles), Pisgah National Forest (34 miles), Nc Arboretum (11 Miles), Asheville Airport (16.9 Miles), New Belgium Brewing Company (4 Miles), Asheville Outlet Mall (8.6 Miles). This home is located in a very small neighborhood and you should expect "normal" to light noise here from cars Etc. We are very close to most of the main attractions in asheville and the house is in more of a "City" setting. Plenty of privacy here but the rental is not in a totally secluded location!

No I did not Love it!
Ralph was always so helpful and quick to reply to my questions. So I hate giving this property only one star. This was my first experience with VRBO and planning a 3 week trip this summer with family. VRBO will not be part of this plan. I will be factual. We arrived late and stayed one night at this property, as scheduled. Pictures are very deceiving. Wherever I stay, I expect cleanliness and comfort. The upstairs was extremely cold, the sheets were pilled and not soft, the mattresses were old and so incredibly uncomfortable. Turned on what seemed to be heat on a low wall unit upstairs. The dust on the heating unit put off a smell. And behind the bed was dust and plain dirtiness. I just hate to review a property this way, but any place one pays for should absolutely provide a clean environment. My father slept downstairs, which was comfortable for him until the downstairs became hot from trying to heat the upstairs. He woke up and we had to turn down the heat. Ended up sleeping on the couch and was so uncomfortable wondering just how clean the comforter was I pulled off the upstairs bed. Urine was on the base of the main toilet with grime behind the toilet. The shower curtain liner was nasty. The baseboards were covered in dirt and dust. Oh, in the upstairs bedroom something was smeared on the wall near the door. Sure, the kitchen is remodeled. The island is cute and so are the cabinets. The tile in the kitchen floor is nice. Opened the oven to reheat muffins when we first arrived and that was the indication that perhaps the 5 star reviews were something I didn’t understand. The oven was dirty, the refrigerator had something near the edge of it. The dining room table was cute and modern and this place had a nice front porch. Beds upstairs do not provide comfortable accommodations, plus sheets appear and feel old and scratchy. Beds need replacement as well as all sheets, pillows and comforters. Shower curtains need replaced and washed after each visit. The overall house had a bit of a musty smell. This place can be a cute place, but oh it’s not clean. When I travel 600 miles, and pay for anyplace with 5 star reviews and nice pictures, I expect cleanliness and to go to bed in a comfortable bed with clean linens. Plus the window by the upstairs bedroom was drafty and did not keep out the cold. It’s a learning experience for certain. It was not a good experience.
Great deal!!
Comfortable stay for our family.
Worth it!
Great place, right outside of downtown Asheville. Plenty of room for 6 adults.
Quaint house on a hill
We went for a girls trip and had an absolute blast. Nothing is too far from the location and Ralph is a very nice person ( and his sweet dog Ava). There's plenty of room in this house and the kitchen was great. It has a wrap around porch that we enjoyed sitting on and playing games and talking.
Cozy with a Great location to so many attractions
Great location!! House has an awesome theme through out!! We will be going back as there are so many things to do in Asheville and the home owner gave gracious hospitality!
