The house sits on two acres of land to watch nature or for the children to play. Nestled near town, White Squirrel Hill will give you the best of both worlds. It is located in a nice neighborhood that is close to downtown Hendersonville where you can find local restaurants, breweries, and family-owned shops.

During the fall, you can pick your own at one of the many apple orchards that can be found in Henderson County. If you chose to venture to Asheville you will find many great breweries filled with craft beverages. In our area there are also many opportunities to explore nature. DuPont state forest is a great way to see beautiful waterfalls and gorgeous views of the Western North Carolina mountains.

Lovely home

Our family had a winter weather emergency and the host was very accommodating, flexible, and kind to check on our needs. Perfect home for a large family(2 adults 4 kids). We would definitely stay again or recommend others do so as well.

Work Trip

Unfortunately it was a work trip and we did not get to fully enjoy the home - out at 7:30 am and back at 9 pm. Great little dinner - The Moose Café about a block and a half away. Location super convenient.

Convenient and nice home close to I-26

A great place for our friends weekend. Home had everything we needed. The upper driveway was most convenient for unloading/loading. A nice quiet street, and we most appreciated the convenient location to I-26 for getting to our favorite shops, restaurants, and the apple orchard.

Absolutely delightful home :-)

We had a wonderful time in this comfortable and clean home. We loved the nostalgic decor and closest full of toys for my kids. we played basketball and ping pong too. It was a great "home base" for hanging out in Hendersonville and Flat Rock. We are already planning to come back next year.

Great VRBO, but issues with the owner

Both toilets overflowed during routine bathroom usage and I was blamed for it. Sewage leaked out of the shower drain as well. I think they might have a plumbing issue when multiple people use the bathroom at the same time. I was than charged $200 for something that was their plumbing issue. The property other than this incident was great. The garages are a great addition to the property for additional safety and the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. I would stay again if I wasn’t going to be charged an extra $200 for something that wasn’t my fault.

Perfect for snow play

We rented this property when the forecast was for snow, so that or children could have a real snow experience. The back porch was perfect for snow clothes management! The yard is big and gave my kids plenty of play space to enjoy the snow.

Very clean. Great location. Good for seniors. Outdated decor

Very nice place. Spotless and clean. We have an 80 year old with us and it was made doe her. Decor is very dated and with just a little updating could be a fabulous place.

Home away from home...

We make yearly trips to Fletcher NC in Oct to attend the Southeastern Animal Fiber Festival, and Hendersonville is a preferred place to stay. This was a "new" place to try, but we'd definitely stay here again. The home was better stocked with kitchen items than any other place we've stayed, and all of the beds and linens were clean and comfortable. We weren't there much of the time, but enjoyed breakfast at the patio table on the front porch - where the view in the morning was lovely!

Visiting Hendersonville

Our stay was just wonderful. The place was welcoming and adorable. The house is off the main road enough to be in a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to be in town in under a few minutes. Main Street is less than a few minutes away. We really enjoyed our visit. I’ll definitely book this place when my Family comes to visit me while I’m moving into my New home. Thank you for everything 😊😊

Wonderful

We enjoyed our stay at your home...It was so lovely reminded me of my grandparents home. Seeing and feeding the squirrels and birds was fun. The added bonus was seeing the white squirrels because we have never seen them before. We would stay again when in the Hendersonville area. Thank you so much for the use of your home! R- McFarland Bakery was the best.

Wonderful Vacation Home

We had a great stay at your wonderful home. Your house was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Our grandchildren loved the toy room, piano and basketball hoop and ping pong table. We would spend some of our evening outside watching them play basketball and catching fireflies. We also saw 2 white squirrels. The location was close to everything. We did meet your husband Ray when he came to mow the lawn. Christy I loved how you decorated the house for the seasons as I do with mine. We would stay again for sure. Thank you Christy and Ray for all your help making our stay wonderful.

We truly enjoyed our time there again. The house is always clean and the lawn beautifully manicured. Hendersonville has many restaurants to choose from but the kitchen has everything you need Should you choose to prepare your meals. The owners, Christy and Ray, are great!

Great trip to Hendersonville

We have stayed at this house several times. The house has always been clean. It is very convenient to restaurants and shopping! Downtown Main Street is only about 2 miles away. Down town Main Street has a lot of shops, restaurants, and a great bakery! Awesome doughnuts! Also Christy the owner is excellent to work with and very friendly!

Convenient disnace from our house.

Since I was very busy with family I didn't get to go see the house at all. We live about one mile from this property and rented it for our son and his family. They said it was quite spacious and very well kept. The garage door opener didn't work but they didn't really need it. The only complaint was the lack of warmer blankets. But we sent some over from our house and all was well.

About the host

Hosted by Christy Evans

My husband and I have been married for 23 years. We have 2 beautiful children. Carley is 21 years old and Brody is 11 years old. This is my childhood home and I have always lived in Hendersonville. My Husband moved here from the Eastern part of NC when he was 3. We are active members of First Baptist Church of Hendersonville.

Why they chose this property

This is my childhood home. My Dad built this house in the early 50's and it was further built on to in 1995. My parents have since passed away and I wanted to be able to share with others how special this home is. My parents always loved to have a house full and everyone was always welcome. So what better way to keep their memory alive and their importance of family than to share with others.

What makes this property unique

We take pride in our home and manage it ourselves. This is our only rental and have been hosting fro 17 years. We put everything we have into our home to make it a great stay for you. We live 3 miles from the home so we are always available with any questions or concerns.Our goal is to make you feel at home. We provide everything you need for a comfortable stay and have 'at home' touches throughout the home. We appreciate our guests and welcome you anytime.
