Great location, cute home

Robena’s Place is located conveniently located to downtown Asheville and the Biltmore House, easy drive. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the porch sipping our coffees in the morning. Very peaceful. There were a couple of things that detracted from our stay. We ran short on toilet paper, there were no spare rolls, just 1 in each bathroom, One of the bedrooms had musty smelling sheets, as if the linen was not completely dried before removing from the dryer, it made it difficult to sleep with that smell. Finally, there was no bar soap or body wash. We didn’t realize we needed to bring our own soap, we had to go buy some.

Nice Asheville country visit

The property is a nicely decorated country home. I found it very nice to be away from the city but yet just a short drive to downtown Asheville. The kitchen is nicely supplied with everything you need for cooking and the washer and dryer are very nice which was very handy. The living room and bedrooms have their own TV’s which was very nice addition. I personally had difficulty with the mattress being a bit lumpy along with the living room couch and chairs losing their buoyancy. We definitely enjoyed our stay and believe with some small updates this would be a fantastic 5 star accommodation.

Perfect getaway

Had a great stay. The location was convenient to town, but secluded enough to give it a mountain feel. The outdoor space was nicely, equipped with swings, rockers, fire pit, and grill. Inside, the house had everything we needed. We will definitely be back and recommend others check it out as well.

Inviting and Relaxing

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Robena's Place. We spent a lot of time on the front porch which had a beautiful and relaxing view. The bedrooms were well furnished and decorated. This felt more like a home than just a rental. Highly recommended.

Great house with a sweet story.

We had a wonderful stay! Especially loved the framed picture and little story about the owner’s mother. We also enjoyed sitting on the porch having coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. While there was a black board with restaurant recommendations and some of the top things to do, it would have been helpful if there was a notebook with other information like where the nearest grocery store was located and other helpful information. All in all a great stay and would recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Sara Swann

Hello; My name is Sara Swann your hostess at our country cottage in Asheville, N.C. My passion is my home place which I named after my mother, Robena. She was an inspiration to me and my two sisters who fostered 50+ children over the years in this home. We slept under quilts she had made waking to the smell of homemade biscuits and gravy. My dad always grew a garden and was a minister who loved his family very much. I have many good memories growing up in this home. It only feels right to share this wholesome home with others.

Why they chose this property

Want to share my home place where I grew up.

What makes this property unique

Close to every where but yet a cozy country setting.
