Some Kind Words From Our Past Guests

-Zachary-
"We stayed at Kay’s place in celebration of my sister’s recent engagement. We had a mix of family and friends and everyone loved the space. There also were no room selection wars, as they all were beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The open concept of the main floor and the decor make for great gathering- eating, drinking, chatting, and group photo opportunities. The additional amenities- hot tub, wooden sauna, and movie room were such a great touch! All were amazing after a day of hiking. I’m an Asheville native, so the views of the surrounding mountains and accessibility to the city were crucial- also give this a 10/10. Grocery store very close and about a 10 minute drive or Uber to downtown. We cannot say enough good things about this experience! Thank you, Kay! My sister said it was one of the best weekends of her life."

-Kendall-
"Beautiful house - view was even better in person. Loved the game room. Felt like you were surrounded by nature while still being five minutes to a grocery store and everything Asheville has to offer. Thanks for a lovely stay."
