Property management was very responsive and helpful. Master bath could use more lighting and the locks on the kitchen patio door and master door leading to patio could use dead bolts. Fireplace was a big hit. Kitchen knives could be sharpened but give it an overall A.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Blackberry Lodge! This house is so spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is by far the most well-stocked VRBO in which we’ve ever stayed. The beds were comfortable and the entertainment options were plentiful! Several of us enjoyed the hot tub, but we all enjoyed the pool table & some competitive ping pong. The fact that the property is pet friendly was our deciding factor in choosing Blackberry Lodge. We would absolutely stay here again!!

We had a wonderful stay with two different sides of our family over Christmas. It was perfect for together time while still having our own space. We had trouble with the oven on the first day but Yonder got that fixed for us on the second day there (I’m not used to a gas oven so not sure if 22 minutes to heat to 400 is normal but worked for our purposes!). The house was close enough to pick up things we forgot and quiet enough for relaxing outside. Would stay again!

We absolutely loved this place. The den and house overall was so spacious. There was a huge supply of firewood that we used for indoor fires every night and there was even a real Christmas tree! Lots of kitchen supplies and lots of other supplies like trash bags, detergents etc. there was a basket full of towels for the hot tub. Would definitely stay here again.

We had such a wonderful stay! The home was spotless, well decorated making it a perfect space for a group of friends. The kitchen was also well stocked. We loved the open layout but there were still some cozy spaces for relaxing. The location was ideal - a quick drive to many of the areas attractions like the Biltmore Estate and The River Arts District. The host was very responsive, making everything easy from start to finish.

Wow!! This property exceeded all of our expectations. The cleanliness, the waters by the bed, the amount of entertainment the house alone provided via games. The distance to downtown Asheville was perfect and the location was perfectly distanced from the neighbors. It felt like we were on a large private property with how set back the house was. Would absolutely book again!!

Our stay at Blackberry Lodge was wonderful! The location was great because we could easily get into Asheville, and also to all the areas south of Asheville in Mills River and Hendersonville. The property was very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a couple nights. The bathrooms were all nice to have with each room. We enjoyed playing pool and ping pong. We also used the EV Charger!

We enjoyed our stay between Christmas and New Years. This is a great house for multiple families. It is located 20 - 40 minutes from activities and restaurants. Many amenities were available. Yonder was very responsive with a question I had after we left the property.
We had a great stay! We visited Mills River brewery and Sierra Nevada 15-20 min drive. This house was great for our couples trip. Spacious and clean! The only thing missing was a TV in the great room on the main level.
