We enjoyed our time at the property. AvantStay did a great job getting everything set up for our friends. The communication was solid with the support team as well when I had issues with the check-in instructions and receiving them. I'd highly recommend staying at this property if you want close access to downtown Asheville AND looking for a cozy getaway in the mountains. The views off the patio were fantastic. Two huge porches, hot tub, and fire pit were solid additions. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed as well, including a nice spice rack.

We only used as small portion of the home since it was just my husband and I, but the home would be perfect for 2-3 families or a larger family gathering. Nice welcome based on arrival. Beautiful views, only 15-20 minutes from Asheville and 10min from Black Mountain. Nice garage with ability to park our car and store our bikes. Only complaint is that the bed pillows were to firm and overstuffed for me and there was no alternatives. ##### Kim T. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sophie J.

There was plenty of space for our group of 11, and we absolutely loved the porch and hot tub with gorgeous mountain views. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, a blender, and lots of herbs for cooking. They even had some sunscreen and bug spray available in the garage. We were happy to be in the mountains, and we made the short drive over to Lookout Mountain for a great hike nearby. It's an easy 30 minute drive to the airport and 20 minutes to Asheville. We had no trouble taking Ubers/Lyfts from downtown Asheville back to the house at night. However, if you're trying to get a ride into town, I'd recommend scheduling those in advance. Overall, we had a wonderful stay with a very smooth check in and check out process! We would absolutely stay here again. ##### Sophie J. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 7, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best views of the Smokies! The home is well decorated with plenty of rooms for our large family gathering. The kitchen has a table that seats 8 + 3 bar stools. There were plenty of dishes, pans & utensils for cooking. Soaps, shampoos & TP, trash can liners were plenty too. The large pantry includes a washer & dryer. A previous review said the pillows weren’t comfortable. That has been corrected. However, most of the beds were uncomfortable. The living room has uncomfortable couch and 2 small rockers with TV mounted way too high on the mantle. The outdoor furniture was also less than comfortable. The hot tub & fire pit were very enjoyable. Avant Stay folks are very helpful when we had several requests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### William A. Mar 1, 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Good House, Bad Practices Anyone concerned about your personal ID and information should be VERY WEARY OF AVANTSTAY. They make you upload a government ID and then they proceeded to force you to scan your face for biometrics (similar to iPhone Facetime). I would have cancelled my reservation on this fact alone, but when I asked about cancelling I was simply told it was not possible since the uploading takes place closer to the reservation date. I even asked them for consideration on this issue and got a really crappy response of "too bad". I WILL NEVER STAY WITH THIS GROUP AGAIN since I value my personal information. I'm very upset and their response was lackluster and cold at best. Too bad since the property was nice, but unfortunately big corporations like Avantstay don't care about individuals, their privacy, or their concerns. ##### William A. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicole H., Charleston, SC Aug 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Location, location, location! Great location! 10 minutes from Black Mountain and 20 minutes from downtown Asheville. Grocery store is 5 minutes away. Lovely mountain views. The management team is excellent. I reached out with a few questions/issues and they replied immediately, no matter the time. The house was big and clean. TVs everywhere and lots of space. Decent wifi. It needs a whole house water filtration system - the water smells like iron while showering and stains the toilets. A few things were broken - master bedroom deck fan, ice maker, one of the two grills. Nothing major but the house could use some attention. We had 7 people and there were only 9 plates so we had to run the dishwasher after every meal. There was one pot holder and two dish rags. Be prepared to bring everything you need to cook including foil, plastic bags, veg oil, etc. We so appreciated that we could bring our dog, but wished there was a convenient area near the house to let her out. Small cars be warned of the driveway. It is steep. Saw a few bears on our local walks - a bear bell or even just a warning note would’ve been helpful. Hot tub was great! Bed pillows were not! Our biggest complaint is that the house felt sterile. No extra touches like brochures about local events, maps, puzzles, menus, tissues, more than one throw blanket, etc. All in all, the house was fine, but for the price point, it lacked some helpful, useful, and homey things that we have appreciated in other VRBOs. ##### Nicole H.
