The rental was great for two couples and our fur babies. The house was nicely done and mattresses were new and very comfortable. Easy communication with owner and they were so nice and accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

Overall wonderful trip with plenty of room for us to spread out instead of being cramped up in a hotel room. The kitchen and bathroom were nicely renovated and had everything we needed. Thank you for an awesome get away!

Good Weekend
Went to Ashville with my wife and brother for a concert. Enjoyed the stay. Nice neighborhood very close to grocery stores and stuff. Lake Jullian park was cool too right up the road.

Great, cozy, clean little house.
House was very clean and cozy. Nicely updated and tastefully decorated, right up the Street from Rocky’s Hot Chicken (which is also amazing). Fully enjoyed our stay, the beds were fantastic, the bunk bed in the second room would be great for kids.
Thank you for a clean, safe stay!

My 2 sisters and I enjoyed the cottage so much! It was beautiful, newly renovated and beautifully appointed. You were supplied with everything you could possibly need from the kitchen to the bedrooms. Little thoughtful touches were added that made it very homey. Very comfortable!
perfectly quaint, very clean. Perfect for 2-3 people. Only downfall is the place has zero pots and pans, so you can't cook. Other than that- it's wonderful.
Very nicely restored. There is a damp odor from the basement

From the owner: "Hi Karen. Thanks for your review. Our turnover specialist will be sure to take a look at the basement area, especially since there is a dehumidifier down below. Appreciate that you would let us know."
Check in process was simple. We could have checked in a half hour early. Very accurate description and depiction. Well stocked, very clean, and minutes away from Asheville itself, as well multiple beautiful locations. No issues with shady individuals, pet friendly, and comfortable. Definitely recommend!!
Cozy, clean house, comfortable beds, nice bathroom and kitchen. Fast internet. The location was just ok. It was close to some restaurants and grocery stores, but the neighborhood had a few dogs that barked often. There are train tracks running in the back, but we only heard the train once in the afternoon.
