Had a great time despite fact Hurricane Helene came to visit. Home is impeccable. Stunning in every way. We immediately felt at home. Hats off to Beth and Ron who ventured out in aftermath of the storm to insure we were safe and sound. Similar kudos to neighbors who were kind and welcoming. Bravo Zulu.

Asheville - Bittersweet

We had four couples here for an extended weekend. The property was fantastic. Easily the best VRBO property we've utilized. It was clean, modern, roomy, etc.... We didn't get to enjoy some of the beautiful interior common areas because the outside areas were so perfect for our group. If our group does Asheville again we will definitely be headed to Bittersweet.

Girls Get-Away

We were so impressed with this home! We wished we had more time to just hang out in the beautiful outdoor space. It seemed all the decor and furnishings were really chosen with care. We were 8 adult women, sisters and sisters-in-laws so we all shared bedrooms but between the king size beds and large bathrooms, we all felt we had plenty of space. We would return in an instant!

Gorgeous oasis

Bittersweet is a gorgeous oasis of comfort, welcome, and tranquility, nestled in a lovely natural setting that is, nonetheless, luxurious and sublime. Every need has been meticulously thought of and designed into this beautiful home, with its epicenter (for my family) balanced between the outdoor living area and the large, inviting kitchen and dining area. The naturally designed water feature provides a constant, soothing background and lures a variety of birds and butterflies, as do the beautiful trees and landscape, which were blooming while we were there. The king beds were pure bliss and we all slept wonderfully well the entirety of our weeklong stay. And oh, the showers! The home, furnishings, and decor have been meticulously planned and cared for and is meticulously clean and in perfect condition. It is obvious that this is a beloved and well cared for home. We absolutely recommend Bittersweet as an oasis of comfort, luxury, and beauty, and would love to return.

Beautiful and well appointed home

We traveled here with our toddler and another family with a toddler and infant. The adults and kids all enjoyed themselves. The house is charming, very clean and has an extraordinary outdoor space where the adults enjoyed relaxing and the kids had a great time exploring. It is a 15-20 min drive to nice restaurants and activities. We would absolutely recommend it to other travelers.

Excellent location for a stay in Asheville

This house is in a very nice, quiet and secluded neighborhood. It had all the amenities you could ask for. We had a number of places we needed to get to in Asheville and Bittersweet was perfectly located so that we were within 15-20 minutes of any location in Asheville. The owners have a lot of pride in their house and it shows. if we have need to stay in Asheville again, we would certainly be pleased to go back to Bittersweet. .

Relaxing but Close to The Action

The property was the perfect location to relax after returning from a day of seeing The Biltmore and Asheville. We especially loved the den because it's size and seating options allowed us to visit as a group. This is a luxury property that is worth renting. Our one regret is that the rainy weather did not give us the opportunity to use the beautiful outdoor living areas.

Amazing visit

We loved our stay. The house is absolutely gorgeous and was the perfect set up for a group. Shared spaces to enjoy each other's company, with the ability to split off for down time if needed. The outdoor space was lovely and the weather cooperated for some outdoor TV and fire pit time. As an added bonus there were hiking trails just across the street from the house. The house was impeccable and had everything you could.possibly need. We would definitely stay here again.

More than everything you need

Place has everything and so much more. The layout of the house easily suits the whole family. Every item in the house is carefully thought of. House is stocked with all the basics. The outside is unlike anywhere else. Sitting, eating, cooking - it’s all there. Kids can play; adults can relax. House is near walking trails and close to anywhere you want to go. Or you can eat in at the great table. Hosts care about the place and you. Easy directions and the process makes sense. Great time and can’t recommend enough.

Amazing rental house

We had a group of 8 friends (4 couples). The house and everything about it dis not disappoint. 4 king bedrooms with their own bathrooms, everything you would need in the kitchen. The owners have thought of everything. We lucked out on perfect weather (Oct 26-31). We spent most of our time in the outdoor living area enjoying the fireplace, flat screen TV and the comfortable furniture. It was a fantastic trip and we would book this property again if ever in Asheville. This house is wonderful!
