Haywood House - great house and location for Asheville

My friends and I enjoyed our stay at Haywood House. The house was very clean and comfortable. It is in a great location - close to downtown but in a nice area adjacent to center of town. Plenty of room for all 3 of us - and the kitchen in particular is very well-stocked. Easy to prepare meals or snacks. The owner is very responsive - would recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Adam

Host profile image
The owner, Bill, and his wife are retired from being self-employed retailers. They became interested in West Asheville after spending time here visiting relatives, including three children who live in the area. Bill enjoys remodeling homes and did most of the work himself to bring the Haywood House back to its former glory. Now, they look forward to spending more time here and sharing this beautiful home with others so they can enjoy the West Asheville community.

What makes this property unique

The Haywood House is unlike any other vacation rental in West Asheville. It is roomy and comfortable, the interior and exterior remain true to the Craftsman period, and most important, it is directly on Haywood Road, just steps from downtown West Asheville. You simply will not find another rental that accommodates as many people and is so conveniently located.
