Wonderful pet friendly property with beautiful views. We enjoyed our stay. It was perfect and close to everything we wanted to do. The property manager Ron was super responsive and easy to communicate with.
The Host and the property manager were excellent communicators, answering all questions and concerns promptly. The property was beautiful, the view of the mountains at sunrise and sunset was like something out of a dream.
The only issue was the pull out bed in the couch. It probably needs to be checked & cleaned after each stay. Lots on dog hair, crumbs & dead insects. So we found frustrating and changed our sleeping arrangements. Other then that it was clean and check in & out was easy. Very good location. Beautiful view.
Wonderful stay for ladies trip with family! Beds were comfortable and plenty of pillows and extra blankets. Well equipped kitchen. The location was amazing with beautiful Mountain views!
The Royal Cottage was perfect for our long weekend in Asheville. It's well located between Asheville and Hendersonville, clean, spacious and well-equipped!
We had a great visit in North Carolina! This house was wonderful! Such beautiful views from the decks, the beds were comfy, it was quiet and peaceful at the end of busy, activity filled days!
It was wonderful to see the changing sunrises from day to day! The house is laid out very nicely. We enjoyed our stay. Ron, the property manager, helped us out many times. We appreciated it.
Would stay again!
Sits at the Top of the hill with incredible views from the balconies. Well appointed, comfortable beds, we felt at home. Its about a 25 minute drive from downtown Asheville, but easy access to the highway, and close to supermarkets.
Great gathering spot, whether in living room, dining room, or kitchen.
Nice eastern view for sunrise.
Easy access to downtown Asheville, Blue Ridge Pwky, Pisgah National Forest, Brevard area (Dupont), Mt Mitchell, and Chimney Rock.

About the host
Hosted by Darlene Witham or Ron Mashburn
The owners were so excited to get transferred by their company to the wonder of the Blue Ridge Mountains over ten years ago. They started their family while living at Royal Cottage and enjoyed mountain biking, hiking, and the fabulous mild weather.
But, as careers go another transfer took them away from their treasured home. In order to preserve the house in order to return one day, they have decided to share it with vacation guests. Please make our home your home until we return someday.
