Great house for a large group. Plenty of room, Very comfortable. Lots of space in different areas for smaller groups to do different things. Nice kitchen. Grill and firepit and hot tub were a plus. Is a little away from other things in Asheville, but we knew this and didn't mind and appreciated the quiet getaway.

We were in town for a wedding and had small groups of family staying together. House was well stocked and we appreciated all of the little added bonuses. Great location for kids, we loved the stocked playroom, game room, outdoor play equipment and the zip line was a huge hit. Close to everything in the area. Thanks for a great location and excellent hospitality.

We had six couples and the house worked out very well for us. Everyone had their own bathroom and the extra spaces were a lot of fun. The young people enjoyed the movie room and the pool table. Fun weekend getaway!

This property exceeded our expectation! It was very spacious. It had a lot of little things to make it feel like a home. From comfortable beds, couches, bath towels, to having baggies, foil, roasting marshmallow sticks and so much more. The neighborhood was beautiful and quite. The backyard was well lit and relaxing. We were all very pleased.

This house was one of the best we have ever stayed at in our travels. It was exactly as shown and even better! There is so much to do at this property that we almost didn’t want to leave to explore Asheville. We had an amazing family gathering coming from 4 different states. The back yard was incredible with all of the activities. The house was very pet friendly, they felt very welcomed. The hosts were incredible as far as communication, always very prompt to respond. We will definitely be back for more fun at Maplewood!! Thank you

Wonderful layout where the bedrooms were spread out and fun games. Our three adult kids (in their 20s) loved hanging out downstairs and playing pool together. There's ping pong and foosball in the garage. The main floor has a nice gas fireplace and we appreciated the partially stocked kitchen. Would stay again.

This was perfect for our party of 11 that came together to celebrate my parents’ anniversary. We had a wide range of ages. The backyard and game rooms were great for kids/teens. 20 minute drive to great restaurants, about 20-30 minutes to Biltmore. Hope we can stay again some day!

Relaxing long weekend

The pictures and description of the house don’t do it justice. It’s obvious the owners have gone out of their way to make sure guests are comfortable. The location was great - close proximity all the places we wanted visit.

Perfect for a three generation family reunion

This large and thoughtfully equipped house was perfect for our three generation family reunion. Although it seems far from Asheville when you first approach, it is easy to get into town, as well as to the highways. A well stocked grocery store and a nice community pool are just 3 miles away.
