Nice clean house
First of all, the hosts were very nice and quick to respond. The house is nicely decorated and spacious. It is on a somewhat main road so the car noise can be loud. Hence, the 4 stars. We didn’t understand the messages about earplugs until after the first night. We were expecting/hoping for nicer views in the back or front too but that wasn’t the case. Asheville downtown was about 15-20 min away which was convenient. The hiking and falls are a little further out. Overall, we enjoyed it.

Lovely Cottage for Family Stay!
We traveled to the Asheville area to help an elderly family member get settled. The cottage was a great place to have a break from all the work during our time there! There were lovely accommodations for all if us (including our young daughter). Gary and Michelle were excellent hosts and made sure to check on us and make sure everything was good. I definitely recommend staying at this NC cottage!

This property was perfect for our short family getaway. We enjoyed Asheville and all it had to offer and were thrilled that it was only a short drive from the house.

About the host

Greg works in the oil & gas industry as an Automation Specialist and has a background in Residential Home Inspections, Building Science, and Construction Project Management. He is an expert Lead Guitarist for The Bayou Church & Jaryd Lane. They have 2 grown daughters who are also musicians/singers/songwriters/artists. They currently live in Lafayette, Louisiana and have a love for the North Carolina mountains! Mountain biking is their favorite thing to do and exploring all the fun things to do in Asheville and the surrounding areas. The Biltmore is always on their list!

Why they chose this property

We chose this area for our vacation rental because it feels rural yet is only minutes from town. Once we got used to driving out a little (a whole 15 minutes!), we realized it was super close to Asheville and actually a nice few minutes to decompress when heading home after a long day of hiking, shopping and exploring. We feel very safe here, and the neighbors, even though we are not right on top of each other, are very friendly! We have a few deer and bears from time to time.

What makes this property unique

What we love about our property is that it's new, clean and has everything we want when we travel. The quick heat of the fireplace is great, we love the openness of the home, and it has a split floor plan. We like elbow room from the neighbors and that it feels far removed, yet close to Asheville. And the grocery store is very close, Ingles on Mt. Carmel.
