About this property

Relax with a View Just 5 minutes from Downtown Asheville NEW DISCOUNTS APPLIED

This mountain home is nestled in beautiful, wooded scenery just 5 minutes from downtown in a quiet, residential neighborhood.

There are three bedrooms and three baths to accommodate 6 people very well. The master bedroom has a plush, queen bed. The upstairs guest bedroom has a relaxing but firmer, queen bed. The downstairs bedroom has a queen bed in a fun modern room. Three bathrooms mean each guest or pair of guests get a private bathroom!! I have 2 smart TVs with Netflix and Amazon prime. My house is decorated with tons a fun artwork and vintage items. Plus, there are a few of my own handmade glass pieces available if you would like a souvenir from Asheville. The garage and one room of the basement are reserved for my personal use. If you reserve the home, you will be the only guests. I will not be present during your stay. I live in the mountains which is lovely, but makes for a steep driveway yet is completely accessible with any car.
There is a 3 car maximum.

Sleeping arrangements

Master Bedroom: 1 queen bed Bedroom 2: 1 queen bed
Bedroom 3: 1 queen bed Common spaces: 3 couches

Guest interaction

I have lived in the area for awhile now and know great places to eat and hang out. If you would like any suggestions or tips, please just ask. I have a PDF of recommendations I’d be happy to send by email before your stay. There is also a book in the kitchen that suggests some of my personal favorite places. It has phone numbers for reservations (which I suggest) and maps to help you find everything in Asheville. I will not be present during your stay, but am always just a text away for anything you might need.

Getting around

My place is a quick trip to downtown by car or Uber. In just 5 minutes, you are in the heart of downtown ready to enjoy all that Asheville has to offer!

Other things to note

This is also a residential neighborhood. Sound travels easily, so I ask that guests be respectful in terms of noise. Thanks in advance! Please consider taking an Uber or Lyft to hang out downtown, just minutes away with tons of great places to hang, eat and drink!! I’ll send you a list of my favorites! There are so many, it’s hard to choose!

Please be advised this is a mountain home in a mountain setting. This may not be the perfect home for people with mobility issues. There are approximately 7 steps from the driveway to the walkway and 2 steps from the walkway into the house.

The kitchen, laundry, two bedrooms and baths (including the master), dining room and living room are on the main level. There is one bedroom, bath, and a den with a futon in the basement.

I have a regular drip coffee pot, k pod coffee maker, French press and electric kettle. Filters are provided: please bring coffee and creamer, we have the view!

Just so you are aware, there is a camera at the garage door. It is there to help with any problems a guest might have with the lockbox. It also triggers a light to come up for late night arrivals which is helpful! The only thing I can see from this camera is directly in front of the door. The only reason it is there is to help guests check in and check out.

This home is not suitable for parties or events. Please do not book for a bachelorette or bachelor party, you will be asked to cancel your reservation.
Registered Guests only. No pets, no smoking, no parties.

Great location, great house
This house was very well kept and in a nice neighborhood close to town. Perfect if you want to stay in and hang out and be in nature or close enough to get in an Uber and go in to a few breweries and Uber back. Would definitely stay here again.

Terrific for couples and families!
We enjoyed this home very much and found it to be a perfect fit for our 4-night family vacation! We had 3 couples - us plus our 2 grown children and their partners. Everyone had their own space and bathroom. Kitchen was well stocked for the meals we cooked there. Ample dining space inside and on the deck. We easily used Uber/Lyft to and from downtown several times with ride times around 10 mins. Fun to explore the cool collection of vintage cameras and other decor in this home. Courtney was quick to respond to any questions both before and during our stay. Check-in and check-out were super easy with the lock box system. Excellent property all around!

Excellent stay and home away from home!
Well stocked, lots of towels, sheets, books, kitchenware. Great location -- easy access to all things Asheville. House set-up very easy to include all ages and privacy. Owner went out of her way to make sure we had accommodations for our 2 1/2 yr old grandson like high chair, pack 'n play bed, baby gate. All was great!

Lovely, cozy hill house
The home was very comfortable for 3 couples and extremely well equipped. The host was in good communication and very helpful. Even the walk-out basement room was fresh and did not seem like a basement. The only unexpected part was the steepness and turns of the driveway, but there was room to turn around and park 2 cars easily. The host did a good job of earning us about bears and we did see them twice.

Wonderful jumping off point for Asheville adventures
Property was very nice, and well suited for our couples group. We loved the decor, location and cleanliness of the place. Perfect distance to Asheville, remote enough that the surroundings were quiet, yet close enough to easily get to downtown. Would definitely stay there again!

Peaceful Getaway Near Ashville
We had a great time in Ashville staying at this property! It was very clean and a convenient location to Biltmore, downtown, etc. The deck was very serene and peaceful. We also really appreciated the communication with the host and notes throughout the house for operating the TV, light switches, etc.

Perfect spot
Three of us stayed here for 2.5 weeks for an out of town work trip. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom, and had plenty of space to spread out and work. We were close to grocery stores and downtown Asheville. The house was very clean and Courtney was a great host. This was a great alternative to a hotel. We will definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Courtney Dodd

Host profile image
I'm a glassblower and a photographer who has lived in the area since 2011. I love good food and drinks and having fun! Need a suggestion of places to go, no problem! I have a list of some of my favorites I'd love to share with you. There are tons are wonderful places in Asheville. Come and enjoy the view, the food, the beer and the art!

Why they chose this property

My home has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths making it a great place for a family or 3 couples to stay very comfortably. Double shower heads and a jacuzzi tub make the master bath a retreat! Granite countertops and stainless steel appliances help bring a smile to any cook's face in the kitchen. There are 2 smart TVs with netflix and amazon. But the deck will please everyone, with a lovely view and a bit of the cool Asheville night air! I'm located just 5 minutes from Asheville, but it feels like the country.

What makes this property unique

My home is decorated with tons fun antiques, quirky pieces of art, and lots or handmade pieces through. I've tried to consider everything from aesthetics to comfort and function.
Come stay in the country, 5 minutes from downtown Asheville with all the amenities of home and more.
