What a lovely, peaceful place to stay in beautiful Asheville. This property was so tranquil, with a wonderful view. It was exactly as described, very comfortable, beautifully decorated and it had everything needed. Joel was a kind host and checked in a few times to ensure I was comfortable, had everything I needed and was available if I had any questions. Truly enjoyed my stay! Many thanks, Joel!

We loved our stay at Joel’s property and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy all that Asheville has to offer. We hiked at Mount Mitchell State Park and Craggy Gardens as well as enjoyed the downtown area and live music of Asheville’s night life, and Joel’s place was conveniently located to all of our needs. It was well stocked and he provided many suggestions to meet our needs throughout the stay. Dill, the resident cat, who welcomed us each time we arrived, was a bonus treat! We will certainly be back!!

I could not be any happier with my accommodations. It was exactly as advertised with no surprises. Joel was a gracious host and quick to answer any questions about hikes and drives and offered multiple suggestions that I explored. The apartment was roomy with a nice sitting area for relaxing and winding down after a long day. I already plan to return to Asheville in the future and will be checking to see if Joel’s apartment is available.

This rental is a gem! Close to everything, clean and cozy. Host is excellent… quick to respond and made the process seamless.One note is there is not a stove and only a mini fridge…. Just something to keep in mind. Highly recommend!

Kelly - thank you so much and I hope to host you again when you return to AVL / The Blue Ridge Mountains! In order to comply with the city of Asheville's short-term rental ordinances, hosts are not permitted to feature a full kitchen (e.g., stove and full size refrigerator, among some other restrictions). So just so everyone knows out there, and as advertised, it is a kitchenette with a larger than standard size mini fridge for more volume for food storage, there is a microwave and sink. The kitchenette has a Keurig, single serving (K-cup) coffee maker including an assortment of coffee flavors: Dark Green Mountain, The Original Donut Shop and Decaffeinated. Also, Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa. For herbal teas: Twinings Lemon & Ginger, Pure Peppermint and a caffeine free herbal tea (much like camomile). I provide sugar-in-the-raw, white sugar, Splenda and Truvia. The creamers (International Delight) are chilled in the refrigerator: regular, French vanilla and hazelnut.

I loved this space so much! It’s perfect for one person or a couple traveling up to Asheville. The location was close enough to downtown that you felt like you could get anywhere you wanted but tucked away in the woods to feel like you got out of the city for a little bit. The host was amazing and super nice! They truly put thought and love into this space. The keyless check-in is super nice as well.

This was a great find! From the start, Joel was super responsive and thoughtful, answering any questions I had about the property and nearby amenities in a timely and generous manner. He made the check-in and check-out process so easy and smooth, it was a real pleasure. The apartment was extremely well kept and clean, and the kitchen was stocked with some great staples like coffee cups with lids, and aluminum foil. The view from the comfortable living room couch was beautiful and serene. I appreciated being able to sip my morning coffee on the little chairs out in front, and go for some short walks, as the place is very quiet with nature sounds in the background. I really enjoyed my stay here, both the indoor and outdoor space, and would consider staying here again next time I visit Ashville. It is a lovely getaway for anyone visiting Asheville that wants a bit of quiet and natural space out of the noisy downtown, but close by.

Pros: - Easy check-in- Free parking right in front of the door- Lots of hot water- Cool fireplace with remote- Pretty close to downtown (by car—definitely not on foot)- Nice view of the woods- Friendly cat- Tidy- Nice selection of Keurig pods including herbal tea and hot chocolateCons:- Persistent damp/mildew smell- Mattress too big for the bed frame so it sloped a bit on the sides- Kitchen is not really usable as a kitchenThis is a pleasant place to stay for 2 people. There's no burner or anything to cook with except a microwave, so heads up if that's not clear from the description. We planned to eat out anyway, so it wasn't a big deal. If you are afraid to see or hear or talk to your host, skip this one. It's basically the lower level/basement of a regular, in-use house. He's nice though, so not a problem for us. We enjoyed being pretty close to downtown and enjoyed exploring the greater Ashland area, hiking, etc.

Kandace, thank you for your review. I’m glad you enjoyed the convenient parking, fireplace, woodlands setting, and the location for exploring the area. I’m sorry you experienced a damp or musty smell during your stay. Your visit coincided with an unusually wet period in Western North Carolina, when our area received approximately 6–8 inches of rain in a short period. I checked in with you during your stay to make sure everything was okay, and I certainly would have appreciated the opportunity to address any concerns while you were here. I do want to clarify two points for future guests. The space is advertised as a kitchenette, rather than a full kitchen, and the listing describes the available amenities accordingly. Also, the guest suite is not a basement; it is a ground-level, nearly zero-entry space with natural light and French-door access. I work hard to provide guests with a clean, comfortable, private space while respecting their independence and privacy, and I appreciate your positive comments about the property and your overall stay.
