Excellent Location

I stayed here for a month and didn’t have a single issue. Everything was as described, the location was perfect to get almost anywhere you would need to go in the Asheville and surrounding area. It’s a quiet location within minutes of any major road you need. I will stay here again.

Lovely stay

The property is in a lovely area. I walked my dog and always felt safe. It’s close to everything. The property has everything I need, including a water filter pitcher, which was really nice to have. Mark is very friendly and responsive.

Need more specific directions because the Shovelhead address does not show up on Google Map. Bathroom lacks counter space. Small cabinet over toilet puts items at risk of possibly being dropped into toilet. Very clean. Enjoyed coffee provided. Also enjoyed filtered water. Quiet location.
