Lovely cabin with great views and amenities! Location was perfect, with about roughly a 20 minute drive into downtown Asheville. Highly recommend.

We loved the property. It was super peaceful, and romantic. Also the place was not far from Asheville or options for fine dining. I would stay at this property again. My husband and I loved it!

We came here to stay for a second time because we loved it so much the first time around. Before going, I noticed a review mentioning the red firepit on the deck was gone. I reached out to AvantStay to ask about it, as it’s one of the reasons we rebooked. I was reassured it was still there but when we got there, it wasn’t. I can understand a listing needing to be updated but being lied to when I reached out about it put a bad taste in my mouth. The place itself is lovely. It was clean and and well stocked with kitchen necessities.. but when you’re paying over 300 a night for a place, you expect to get what’s advertised.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for choosing to stay with us again — we truly appreciate your loyalty. We’re very sorry for the misunderstanding about the firepit and completely understand your disappointment. That shouldn’t have happened, and we apologize for the miscommunication. We’re glad to hear you still enjoyed the home’s cleanliness and amenities, and we’ll make sure our team updates the listing to accurately reflect what’s available so future guests have the right expectations. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again for an even better experience.
This place was perfect! Booked for a romantic weekend getaway. The house was well equipped with plenty of kitchen tools, expected spices/oils, and a hair dryer! (Wanted to mention, as I wasn’t sure and packed my own.) It’s at the end of a long driveway shared by 2 other houses, but you still have plenty of privacy. Googlemaps is slightly off on where to turn onto the gravel driveway, so go slowly and look for the sign. The property feels like a tree house and gave off the perfect relaxing vibes I was hoping for. Hot tub and stove on the deck were awesome for chilly/rainy nights. Rain storms sounded awesome on the roof. Absolutely recommend and will likely be returning myself :)

Thank you for your wonderful review, Katie! We're so happy to hear that the house provided the perfect relaxing getaway for you. It sounds like you had a great time! We’d love to host you again whenever you’re ready for another visit.
Overall we loved the home!! The plus was secluded, quiet, and beautiful view. The downside was the directions put you at the house below the site and it was difficult to find at night. I’d recommend having directions to keep driving until you see the house number. Also better parking signs, designating the parking spaces. The walk from the parking to the deck is not hard but should be in the description. I couldn’t find the coffee kuregg cup and laundry detergent wasn’t easy find. Not enough hand towels in the bathroom. We loved the artsy feel and decor of the place. Also loved the gifts they left for us. All and all a really unique place and experience. Loved the shower!

Loved this place. Had everything we needed. Was looking for somewhere private with a hot tub, and this was definitely the ticket. Would definitely return.
