Asheville's Hidden Gem: Serene & Close to Downtown

Summary:
Experience the best of Asheville in this serene, pet-friendly oasis, just 10 min from downtown, Biltmore Estate, and exquisite nature spots. Ideal for families and friends, offering cozy amenities, a fenced backyard, and easy access to nearby attractions.

The Space:
Welcome to your Asheville Oasis, a haven of tranquility nestled among the trees and close to the heart of vibrant Asheville. Designed to accommodate up to 8 guests and their beloved pets, this 3-bedroom home offers a perfect blend of serenity and convenience that beckons both nature lovers and urban explorers alike. As you enter the one-level open-plan living space, you'll immediately notice the inviting atmosphere and thoughtful layout. Each of the 3 bedrooms features a plush queen-size bed, inviting restful nights for everyone. The living room, adorned with a Smart TV and stylish decor, promises cozy evenings spent with your loved ones. The kitchen, fully stocked with all cooking essentials, makes preparing meals a breeze, while the adjacent dining room allows for quality time spent sharing delicious creations. For those looking to enjoy warmer evenings, step out onto the spacious front porch, where rocking chairs await or venture out to the back deck, complete with a charcoal grill, seating, and a table - perfect for al fresco dining surrounded by nature. The sizable fenced backyard is not only ideal for your furry companions but is also equipped with a fire pit and outdoor seating for memorable gatherings around a warm fire. For fun-loving guests, a cornhole game awaits on the property, or simply enjoy a leisurely walk through the idyllic neighborhood.

We are pet friendly! We charge $20 per dog per night.

Guest Access:
Guests will have complete access to the entire home (excluding the owner's closet off the dining room). Featuring a smart lock for seamless self check-in and added security. Free parking is available on the premises, ensuring a hassle-free stay.

The Neighborhood:
Neighborhood is nice and quiet. We are tucked away and not visible from the main road. We ask that you keep the neighborhood quiet between the hours of 10pm-8am.

Getting Around:
Car is best. Uber/Lyft will service our area and can be scheduled in advance on their app. I can also share the info for a local lady who drives around town and leaves her business cards at some of our rentals.

Other Things to Note:
Staying at our Asheville Oasis, you'll find yourself in close proximity to major points of interest such as Biltmore Estate, Shoji Spa & Lodge, Blue Ridge Parkway Visitor Center, and Western North Carolina Nature Center. The upcoming summer season and the next three significant holidays: Independence Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving, are perfect opportunities to explore and enjoy all that Asheville has to offer. Discover the vibrant downtown district only minutes away, boasting award-winning restaurants and breweries. We highly recommend trying local favorites, such as White Duck Taco Shop, 12 Bones BBQ, Biscuit Head, and Ben's Tune-Up Bar & Restaurant. As a pet-friendly property, we charge $20 per dog per night. When booking with us, please remember to keep the neighborhood quiet between 10 pm and 8 am to respect our neighbors, and kindly brush through our house rules provided with the booking. Whether you're looking to embark on your next great adventure or longing for a peaceful retreat, our Asheville Oasis has something for everyone. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the ultimate Asheville getaway.

Interaction with Guests:
We are fairly busy so you most likely will not see us during your stay but we are always a text or phone call away if you need something.

You may see us or our cleaning crew putting out the trash Tuesday evening/Wednesday morning

Candlestick lane
House was neat and clean. Master shower very small and second bathroom could use some handrails. Photos of back yard did not show that it was a steep slope. Back steps to yard were somewhat hazardous. Very quiet, very secluded. Close to Biltmore.

Fun times in Asheville
We had a great time staying at this wonderful house in Asheville. Our dog loved the backyard and being able to be part of our vacation. Owners paid very close attention to the smallest details to make the stay enjoyable. We appreciated all the amenities and the ease of the reservation and check in/check out process. If we needed anything, they were very responsive and courteous. The next time we come to Asheville, we will definitely check to see if this property is available.

Amazing home!
We stayed at this property for a wedding in the area. It is the cleanest home I have ever stayed in. It is clean, well-stocked, and sits in a quiet neighborhood. comfortable beds and plenty of room for 4 adults. I would definitely recommend this home if you are looking for a place to stay. Very close to Biltmore and places to eat. Amazing stay!
