Asheville Cottage Retreat by AvantStay | A+ Charm

Enjoy three levels of space and comfort at Asheville Cottage Retreat. This 5BR escape is perfect for a group, with gorgeous outdoor spaces, welcoming interiors, and all the amenities you need for a memorable mountain vacation.

A fully-equipped kitchen makes at-home meals a breeze, while nearby options like Whistle Hop Brewery, Flying Cloud Farm, and other family-friendly Fairview favorites are ready to explore when you head out.

Keep your group entertained with multiple TVs with streaming services, as well as an Xbox and wet bar in the lower level’s family room. You’ll even find an extensive collection of DVDs.

The porch and deck are the best places to enjoy a coffee, cocktail, or night of grilling, while five comfortable bedrooms give everyone a space to call their own.

The primary suite features a king bed and private bath with a shower/tub combo. You’ll find two queen rooms upstairs with another full-sized shared bathroom, as well as two more queen beds on the lower level (also featuring a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub).

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs. For anything you need (or never knew you needed), we’re at your service!

An exciting yet laid-back escape among the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is a unique blend of outdoor adventure, exciting entertainment, and incredible local cuisine. Explore stunning views from bike or horseback, or stroll around the buzzing art district filled with breweries, boutiques, and venues. Cool breezes, historic architecture, and more — you can have it all in Asheville.

Great Place

The property was clean and comfortable with a nice view and lots of outdoor areas. Great rooms with good amenities. We enjoyed our stay very much. The original home we picked became unavailable at the last minute. The staff notified us immediately and helped us find a comparable place to stay in the same area. They were very helpful and the change was managed with no hassle.

Beautiful Asheville Getaway

Beautiful and very clean house with lots of space for 5 friends. “Minutes from downtown Asheville” was a slight exaggeration. Carpets have some stains and furniture is clearly geared toward renters but overall we very much enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Place

Our family had a wonderful stay! The home was beautiful, and provided plenty of space for all 6 of us; Our only regret was that the weather wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy the beautiful porch and decks. The location is only a few miles from Biltmore Estates and 11 miles from downtown. One can't go wrong with this choice.

Wonderful home!!!

We absolutely loved our weekend in this lovely home. It accommodated 10 ladies perfectly. Each of the bedrooms were clean and cozy. There was plenty of seating for all of us to sit around and catch up. The location of the house was very convenient to downtown Asheville. We were able to get to restaurants and shops within 20 minutes. I highly recommend this property!!!

Breath of Fresh Air

Girls trip to Biltmore The house was way nicer than we expected. The kitchen is lovely and entirely stocked. You shouldn't need a thing. The bedrooms are large and very well appointed with storage, hangers, bureaus for a nice long stay. There are extra linens! The bathrooms were a real surprise with extra towels and plenty of TP. There was no Kleenex, but when we mentioned it, it was delivered the next day. I've stayed in a lot of short term rentals and every one had quirks. This one didn't have any. The location for Asheville couldn't be any easier-15 minutes to Biltmore or downtown. And the rural feel was wonderful. This was such a breath of fresh air! Thanks!

Great house and Great Response

This house was almost perfect for our sibling reunion. Only "down" side was the steps to downstairs were too steep for one of the siblings to go down because of recent health issues. Therefore, we were unable to use the downstairs to watch movies and or all get together. Otherwise, the house was a great place to get away from it all yet be close enough for shopping and sightseeing. Owners were quick to respond to any questions. Also, I would suggest you let them know that "Main Street" is a small road either just after light or just before light (depending on which way you are coming from). Most people think of "Main Street" as a major road.

Asheville Water System Failure

The property manager called us while we traveled to the property from Florida to let us know there was no water at the property. He had no other properties available and wasnt sure about hotel rooms. Fortunately the water system came back on by the time we arrived and stayed on for the week we were there. The night before we were to leave the water turned brown due to system flushing and precluded us from showering or using the water for drinking or cooking. The property manager had anticipated this and left 4 cases of bottled water for our use. The south end of the Asheville water system was without water due to freezing temperatures and main breaks and a loss of the water supply for at least a week over the Christmas holidays finally being restored by January 5th. Hopefully the City will analyze exactly what happened and spend the money to properly maintain and correct the water system so this doesn't happen again. This situation did not develop overnight, many years of a lack of funding, training and emergency preparation caused this situation. Many businesses were forced to be closed due to lack of water supply and fire prevention abilities. This could have been a real disaster.
