A smartlock keypad is located on the front door for simple keyless entry and self-check-in. The code will be provided to you prior to your check-in time. The code is different for each guest.
Excellent communication from the host that covered all of the relevant details and more. The home was cozy and comfortable. It was handy to have all the drawers and cabinets labeled making it easy to find things. Very nice central location to a variety of hiking destinations, which is what we were there for. Weâd happily stay here again in the future.
I stayed wish my wife and little daughter at aartisan Gen for 4 nights. It was a great place to stay, felt safe, everything was clean and organized. I would recommend this place for stay for sure.
âI had a wonderful stay! The home is beautifully decorated with so much charm and character. I especially loved the collection of old booksâit gave the space a cozy, personal feel. Itâs clear the place was thoughtfully set up with guests in mind. I didnât want for anything during my stayâeverything I could have needed was there. The hosts were also very attentive; when I reached out to ask for the entry code again, they responded quickly and helpfully. Thank you for creating such a warm and welcoming space. I would definitely stay again!
This house is in a great location to town and easy to get to. It has everthing you need and is very cozy. We went to NC to help with disaster relief and worked long days. It was great going "home" to such a relaxing place that was clean and well stocked. I did have a question about wi-fi and contacted the host and they were very quick to respond.
Thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The kitchen was quite nice. The amenities even included a few staples available like strawberry jell, butter, and black pepper. There is plenty more but that is what I used. Having Ruko on the TV made it easy for me to use my streaming services.
This property is clean, well appointed, comfortable, safe, and has very amenity needed for your time away. The carport during rain was wonderful. I hope to stay again!
I enjoyed my stay at this VRBO, it really is a cute little gem off the beaten path. Very private with safe neighbors. I stayed there while attending Penland class. It's a close drive and I enjoyed being able to unwind from a daily classroom instruction at Penland.
House was just as described with everything you need. Communication from owner was excellent. We were in town for a wedding but would stay here again if ever back in the area
Blue Walnut is a lovely home conveniently located near downtown Spruce Pine. The owners were accommodating and friendly. They were quick to respond to any questions. I recommend this property to anyone wanting visiting Spruce Pine.
Owners thought of most everything in this home. Good tools, dishes etc in kitchen. Having laundry for a longer stay (nearly 2 weeks for me) very helpful. Varied art with credits in the âarea folderâ, record player with something for all, ample linens and basics made for a very homey stay. Quiet neighborhood and good proximity to town. Host checked in and communicated very well. Would stay again for sure! Grateful and felt right at home
Everything about this property was exactly as described in the listing. Super clean, comfortable, and very nicely updated. Had everything that we needed and had no complaints whatsoever! Loved it and hope to return for future stays.
I took my kids for a few days of bird watching and found this little gem in Spruce Pine. It was centrally located to the places we wanted to explore. Spruce Pine has a small downtown with restaurants and taverns. Itâs close to Burnsville and sits between Asheville and Blowing Rock as well.
The house was comfortable and well equipped. All the drawers and doors in the kitchen were labeled so you can find what you need easily. There are mini-split air handlers in the main parts of the house for dialing in your comfort level. The WiFi was easy to access and the home was comfortable overall. The owner was in contact several times to check in on us and see if we needed anything. So big thumbs up for that! Enjoyable stay!!
Quiet neighborhood, close to restaurants and post office and library and highway. Very nice appliances (A/C, oven, washer, dryer, coffee maker). We spent the days at the Penland art school, which is about a ten minute drive away.
