This house is incredible! The location is absolutely perfect for exploring Asheville. We were close to everything, yet the property feels secluded and very homely. The home was clean and kept up well with some endearing touches from the host. The large fenced in yard was perfect for my dog to explore safely, and the lake views are immaculate. We (group of 7 friends) ended every evening with unforgettable conversations on the deck and I liked to start my morning with a walk down to the dock. The only negative I can think of would be that the upstairs bedroom can get hot - I would suggest a window A/C unit. We also had to share the single shower, but that was apparent from the listing.
The owners were absolutely lovely before we even set foot on the property. Incredibly accommodating through some schedule changes on our end, and we’re very gracious about it. Upon entry, we were greeted with a little goodie bag and a very thoughtful note. All of the amenities throughout the home were nicely done, and you could tell someone had put consideration into everything. The property itself was SO nice! The house was airy and adorable, with views of the lake and of the charming backyard. The backyard is a tremendous feature, in fact, as it features terrorist levels stepping down to the lake. The two-story dock is the perfect place for your morning coffee, or an evening glass of wine, but if you don’t want to walk down to it, the deck off the back of the house has a great view of the lake, as well. The neighborhood was quiet, and we had nice walks exploring around the lake. My photos really don’t do it all justice, but the Pac-Man game in the ground level suite was a big hit!
