Charming 5-star home near downtown Asheville & Biltmore, fire pit, dog friendly
As of January 2026 we have 294, 5-star reviews out of 296 total!!! There is a reason :) This 2,000 sq. ft. home, built by the owners in 2016, is extremely comfortable and close to it all. The common areas are spacious and open . . . ideal for sharing time together and relaxing. The living room has very comfortable seating, a gas fireplace and TV. The wood dining table is BIG, and includes 8 chairs. The kitchen has a large island with "breakfast bar" seating, clean stainless steel appliances and white cabinets filled with a wide range of cooking supplies, utensils, etc.. We outfitted the bedrooms with super comfortable mattresses and soft cotton and micro-fiber sheets, along with quality dressers and nightstands. The bathrooms, with granite vanity countertops, stay sparkling clean! We created a "hang-out" room in the upper level (with 50" flat screen TV). For your outdoor time we fenced in the back yard where we have a patio, table and chairs, gas grill and a beautiful fire pit surrounded by boulders and landscaping. It's just one of those places that feels good both inside and out, and we'd love you stay with us!
Centrally located, the home is just 4 miles to downtown Asheville, 2 miles to the Biltmore Estate and Village. Shopping, groceries and multiple restaurants are within 2 miles and less than 2 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway, I-240 and I-40. Everything around Asheville is quick and easy from our location!

If you plan to bring a dog there is a $100 fee . . . please be sure to check the box, during booking process, that you will be bringing a pet.

This home is a terrific option for visiting Asheville. It's close to the major attractions and is in a safe homey neighborhood. It was very clean and well appointed. The beds were extremely comfortable and they had super soft sheets. Because of the fencing, the backyard fire pit felt private for making s'mores. Lo and behold...they even supply the metal implements you need for s'mores!Stay here for your next trip to Asheville!
We had a wonderful stay at this Asheville home. It was very spacious, comfortable, and immaculately clean. The location made it easy to get anywhere in the area, and it was extremely pet-friendly, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.
This was a very clean and comfortable place to stay during our visit to Asheville! Check in/check out were easy and straightforward and the house was in close proximity to everything we wanted to do. We would love to come back one day!

So glad you enjoyed the house ... we'd love to have you back!
The hostess was extremely accommodating and responded quickly when I reached out to him. The beds were excellent. The location could not have been better.
We had a wonderful stay! The home accommodated 11 of us comfortably, was spotless, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, and check-in/check-out were a breeze. We’d definitely book again!
What a great home! Great location, nice size bedrooms, and plenty of shared living space - perfect for our family gathering. Beds were super comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. Dave was a great host and very responsive. Our only regret was that it was too warm outside to use the firepit out back. Next time!
David’s property was the perfect place to stay while we came and visited Asheville. Super convenient to downtown and Biltmore. The place was very clean when we checked in and David was very helpful and communicative.
This house is amazing! So clean, great location, perfect for a large family and they allow dogs. I loved the little details such as full length mirrors in a couple of the rooms and a pet basket with sheets for furniture and towels for their paws. Highly recommend and hope to be back on another visit.
The property was close to attractions and gave a comfortable home away from home vibe.

About the host
Hosted by Dave Ulrichs
Elyse and Dave have lived in Asheville since 2002. They love living here and are excited to have a place for people to stay when visiting this amazing town.
Why they chose this property
In 2016 we set out to find the perfect lot on which to build a brand new vacation rental property. Being a general contractor allowed Dave to design a warm, cozy home and make it a reality. Construction took place through the Summer of 2016 and the finishing touches were done in September. We hope you love this home as much as we do!
