It is immaculately clean and free of all fragrances......a big plus. The beds are comfy and the owner's artwork makes it special. It's convenient to Biltmore and other local attractions. It had everything we needed. ##### Vicki W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Presley W.

The home seems very new and had all of the amenities one could ask for, in addition to being at the end of a secluded and quiet street. With only a 10 minute drive to get to downtown Asheville we couldn’t ask for more and would definitely stay again! ##### Megan K. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bobbie C. Aug 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend stay Corey was a great host. Check in was super easy and seemless, my dog loves the property and having a decent yard to play around in. Property was well taken care of and even though I didn't need anything from Corey while I was there, I'm sure he would've been there to fix any issues I had. ##### Bobbie C. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Walt P. Jul 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Enjoyable 10 days Wonderful little home. Clean and fresh. Seemed like we were the first tenants. For the owners: get a toaster, regular coffee pot, and a coffee table for the TV area (no place to put drinks). We are planning on being in Asheville next year. We will check with you to rent. ##### Walt P. Stayed 10 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Christy A. Mar 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quick mountain getaway Quick trip with friends to experience Biltmore in the spring. Location and house were both good and house is decorated very nice with new upgrades and fixtures. Host was always great and responded to questions very quickly. We requested an early checkin and to accommodate this request property would charge a pretty steep early check in fee. Also it would be nice to have more trash bags provided with your stay. Overall great place and would stay here again ##### Christy A. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jason W. Dec 10, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice and new The place was nice and new, well appointed and decorated. It was easy for us to get to Biltmore. Only complaint would be that the bed linens need to be refreshed. Some were stained and one bed had dog hair in it. We had to clean them on the first night. We didn't contact property manager as it was so late. Overall, it's a nice property for a group to get back and forth to Biltmore. ##### Jason W.
