Very clean. Just as described. It was a great home base as we toured the area. If you are arriving at night, the neighborhood has no streetlights so it is VERY dark. Thankfully the home was well lit up and the photo was exactly as the front looks. Would definitely stay there again when in the area

Charming cottage, perfect location!

If you love vintage, this is the perfect place to stay! It is centrally located to most anything you would want to do in the Asheville area. The cottage is beautifully decorated in a country French style and the owners include extra amenities such as champagne chilling in the fridge and coffee for the Keurig.
