The home was lovely and decorated for the holidays with a beautiful tree. It is very close to the attractions in Asheville and in a quiet neighborhood.When we had a minor problem, the communication from the host was very quick and the problem solved.We really enjoyed our time here.
Absolutely gorgeous house. The location was perfect for us to head to Mars Hill to ski one day and the next head into downtown Asheville. There was so much to do at the house everyone in our party had something to do. I reached out when we arrived and got an immediate response and the issue was handled immediately. The house is gorgeous and loved being able to cook dinner in the evenings. We will 100% book again when in the area.
It was a great place to stay. We enjoyed hosting friends over for dinner and enjoying the game room area for the evening—plenty to do within this home.
I hosted my sales team at this home in mid-April. It was a perfect location for our group. We enjoyed the amenities, especially the game area and the fire pit outside. The home was clean and comfortable - I highly recommend!
The location was perfect! We needed a last-minute place for my brother's bachelor party after our original booking fell through, and this spot had everything we needed. Eliot was also super responsive to all my questions.Big thanks to Jodie, Eddie, and Eliot for an amazing stay!
The place was exactly as described and had everything our large group needed- In fact, we packed extra cups, plates and all sorts of extras that we find missing at most rentals and we didn't even need them.
We had an awesome time staying here during my bachelor party! The location was exceptional since it was close to the River Arts District, the Biltmore, etc. while also comfortable sleeping a big group of guys. The amenities were also a big plus, which made our nights in that much more enjoyable. The host Elliot was also very responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. All around great stay!
We had 16 women celebrating 50th birthdays. The house was perfect for games, relaxing in hot tub, late night movies in theater room and smores by the fire!!!Hosts were perfect and thought of everything you might needBeds were so comfortable.Would highly recommend. Nicole
I just left the cabin from a long weekend. Absolutely fabulous. They thought of everything, even Christmas decorations. And the place is just stunning. I will definitely stay here again when I come back to Asheville.
The property was great and had all the amenities we needed as a group! The hosts also welcomed us with breakfast goodies. We loved the big rooms and outdoor space and hot tub. The kitchen is a little small so cooking for a large group would be difficult, but we did takeout so the house worked wonderfully for us.
Very nice house that was well stocked with kitchen supplies, coffee, towels, toiletries, etc. Host was super helpful and kept us informed. Beautiful fire pit (bring wood), a couple folks enjoyed the sauna and a bunch of us enjoyed the hot tub after dinner. Highly recommend!
There aren’t enough words to say how nice this property is!
This house was far and away the highlight of our trip. With such a large group for a bachelor party we were never without entertainment. So many games, activities, comfortable and clean. I’d recommend this house to anyone and absolutely would return!
We stayed here as a group of 13 for a bachelorette party and absolutely loved the house! The basement game room and bar was so fun to spend time in. The kitchen and bathrooms were also stocked with additional items for us to use. Everything was very well decorated and clean. The communication with the hosts was always prompt.
Highly recommend!
Everything went very smooth from beginning to end. Great communication from the owner. The home is extremely clean, very spacious, well stocked, and supremely well equipped with games and technology. The young and old thoroughly enjoyed the games, fire pit, and hot tub. We would definitely return to this home.
Bachelor Trip was what it was because of this house!
This place was perfect. It came fully stocked with essentials, comfortable beds, the hosts were incredibly quick to respond and very nice! We stayed here for a bachelor party and their basement felt like it was specifically tailored to us. Pool table, shuffle board, arcade games, hot tub (which we didn’t even get to because there was so much to do) fire pit, grill, and the best recovery for those who overdid the first night… the sauna. This location is possibly the closest you can legally get to the city of Asheville because of their ban on short term vacation rentals so commuting to the breweries and dinner was a very easy drive. I’m saving this location for the next trip with a big group.
Overall, our stay was good and we had everything we needed. We really appreciated that there was plenty of cleaning supplies, toilet paper, and even wood for the fire pit (a nice surprise!). When an issue came up, we were able to quickly have it resolved because the owners were prompt and responsive. The children had a ton of fun with all of the games downstairs. And the location was ideal as we were able to get to grocery stores, restaurants, etc very quickly. There are a few things to know ahead of time: The four king-size bedrooms are all upstairs. One has an en-suite bathroom, and the other three share one bathroom.There is a full size bathroom downstairs by the bunkbed room. None of the bedrooms have dressers (only relevant if you’re an unpack-your-suitcase kind of traveler!). The road to the house is fairly steep and not completely paved which may pose an issue for some drivers/cars. The house is overall better suited to families with older. They do welcome dogs which was a plus for our family. (Pet deposit extra)
This a wonderful property with all the amenities you need. Very easy to get to trailheads and downtown from this location. The owners are incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was very clean and comfortable. Would highly suggest staying here to anyone coming to Asheville.
Also, if you need any food, drinks, supplies, etc…Shopper Julie has got your back. Just ask the owners for their info.
Thanks again!
We were so impressed the minute we walked in the front door; this house is absolutely gorgeous!
Our Indiana & Georgia families had a wonderful time getting together in Asheville at Bonnie’s Peak! The teens had a blast in the game rooms & watching movies in the home theater. The adults enjoyed the fire pit & visiting in the living area upstairs.
I can’t say enough about the hosts; from the very first contact through our entire stay they were prompt & super helpful with every question or concern I had!
Thanks to Julie, Eliot & Jodie!
