About this property

Lovely, serene studio apartment close to downtown and Biltmore Village.

The space is a warm and cozy modern apartment with an access deck overlooking a serene wooded area frequented by bears, groundhogs, foxes, turkeys, and who knows what other wildlings. We are fewer than five minutes from just about everything including Biltmore Village and downtown Asheville. Inside you find a beautiful and inviting queen bed, spacious bathroom, and plenty of natural light. There is a long descending pathway with stone steps--please see the pictures in our profile.
The space
Conveniently located close to all of Asheville's attractions yet tucked away in a quiet, wooded neighborhood. The apartment is below our home but has its own private entrance. It is stocked with a mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker, glasses, dishes, and silverware. We also offer filtered water, award-winning locally roasted Mountain Air coffee, and snack bars. We provide a TV with Google Chromecast to connect to all your favorite streaming apps. It's the perfect retreat after a fun day exploring Asheville.
Other things to note
We keep an immaculately clean, hypoallergenic space and do not allow pets under any circumstances. Please do not ask us to make an exception. Thank you for understanding 😁

A Cozy Stay

This was a perfect place for a quiet, cozy overnight stay. The room had peaceful decor, a super comfy bed and a hot shower after a day of hiking & exploring Asheville. Our host greeted us as we were coming in & was quick to respond to our question. Convenient to everything!

Cute neighborhood close to Biltmore Village

Had a wonderful day. The hosts are excellent. The village area is still under a boil order, but the host provided filtered, potable water. What caviar is at the stairs going down to the property are so much deep and made of varying sizes of stone. Probably not a problem for young people but we’re a little older. The Biltmore is open but the villages destroyed so we try to support them anyway we can

Nice Weekend Trip

The hosts were wonderful and the place was quite nice. This room is in the basement of their home, but has a side entrance allowing for privacy. The room did have a dehumidifier that ran constantly, creating enough noise to drown out any noises from the hosts and their family upstairs, which was nice and didn't bother us. The neighborhood is adorable and overall we loved Asheville and are grateful to have stayed here!

This was our first visit to the Asheville area. We wanted a central location for downtown and the west end. Unfortunately Hurricane Helene, threw a wrench in our plans. We contacted our host and expressed our concerns about changing our dates due to the devastation in the area. The hosts quickly answered our questions and provided us with links to track the progress of the town's repairs. We decided to continue with our plans as the area welcomed back tourists. We found the studio apartment to be everything we needed for our relaxing stay. The neighborhood had a lot of charm with very friendly people. The apartment space was perfect for two people. Our hosts were great at communicating with us and the whole trip was a great experience.

This is a nice place to stay, however if you are 70 plus and do not have excellent mobility,you will have a problem here. The path to access the unit we stayed in was stone and gravel and at a very steep angle, it is not real safe and your knees will hurt. Falling is a real possibility.
