We enjoyed our stay at Peacock Retreat. Our accommodations were clean, cozy, comfortable, welcoming and quiet. The location was convenient to UNC-A, downtown Asheville, Biltmore House, Asheville Botanical Gardens and Grove Park Inn. The neighborhood was perfect for walking our dog.

A very nice, but rather small, property with lots of character. It is a bit "rustic," but in nice shape. Room enough for two people, plus it's pet friendly. Excellent communication and service from the host and the couple that covered for him when we were there. Great location close to downtown Asheville.

The property was as described. It was convenient to downtown, yet had a nice country setting. It was very comfortable for our doggy too. The contact with the host was easy and very efficient. We would stay again when visiting Ashville.

Retreat is the perfect word for this delightful place! Peaceful and pleasant in a nice neighborhood, we had a wonderful time and so did our Shih-Tzu Luigi! It was close enough to downtown but not so close as to be crowded at all. Lots to do north and south of us! And the garden was such a serene place to be, we spent much of our time here on the rockers on the porch.

Lovely, clean, dog-friendly home base for a weekend in Asheville. Host (Mike) was extremely communicative, and check-in/checkout were seamless. They even provided bowls and toys for our pup! Great location with easy access to lots of great coffee and food options. Would recommend for a stay in Asheville with your doggy companion.
