Perfect location, cozy little haven

We were greeted by our friendly host Ashima upon arrival who provided a quick orientation. The lodging is in the lower level walk-out, with plenty of good light. Ideally located in Montford, easily walkable to downtown. Highly recommended.

Perfect Location

The historic Montford neighborhood where this fully property is located transports you to days gone by with all the comforts of today. Conveniently located to downtown Asheville and stellar restaurants right in the neighborhood, the cozy hideaway provides convenient access to the Biltmore House, the North Carolina Arboretum, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the River Arts District, bakeries, and breweries. A great place from which to explore the many facets of Asheville and the surrrounding areas!

Perfect Location

This cozy place is in a beautiful old Victorian neighborhood. We enjoyed walking past the homes, admiring the beautiful architecture and craftsmanship. Our hostess was so warm and welcoming. The restaurants she recommended were all within walking distance and were top rated. The room was everything we hoped it would be. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely little place in Montford neighborhood

This is a lovely place to stay in walkable Montford, just off of downtown Asheville (which you can also walk or bus to). The owner was very nice and responsive to us, helping out with suggestions for places to eat in the area. Lovely little back porch and yard. Grocery stores and great restaurants are close, including one of the best meals we've ever had just up the street at Tall John's. We would stay here again without hesitation. In fact, we're already planning to.

Great location!

We loved our stay at this Montford property while in Asheville! It was nice to have on-site parking and the house is close to several parks/greenways which allowed us to go running in the neighborhood easily. We never ended up walking downtown but it would have been an easy 20-minute walk if we had gotten the chance.

Wonderful Deck/Patio

The property was as described, a nice historic neighborhood. The back patio/deck was absolutely lovely. If you enjoy birdwatching, relaxing, watching the squirrels play-there is no better place.
