May 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### College graduation The house was convenient to Warren Wilson college where we were attending our niece's graduation. The house was in very good shape and had everything we needed. ##### William R. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Matt G. Dec 17, 2023 #### Not as Advertised The posting for this home was misleading. It appears the two units are connected by a stair case but they are not. They are completely separate units. It took us over three hours to get in the upper unit which had enough sleeping for our family of 5\. There wasn’t enough bedding for the inflatable mattress or cot. There are also several other buildings on the property. The unit was clean. It was near Black Mountain’s downtown which was great. It is also right next to a main highway and a train track (this was a plus for our four year old) but there was a lot of noise from the highway and the traintracks. ##### Matt G. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill G. Nov 15, 2022 #### Great house! We rented both the upstairs and downstairs unit. This gave us privacy and plenty of room to spread out when traveling with friends. Both units were very well-appointed with new furnishings and modern decor. Location was excellent - 15 minutes to downtown Asheville, plus only 5 minutes to cute downtown Black Mountain, with easy highway access. We had some inclement weather and were glad not to have to deal with curvy mountain roads to get to and from the house. We would definitely rent this house again! ##### Jill G. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake ](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Lumina on Wrightsville Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Wilmington-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Wrightsville-Beach.h15394.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Charlotte Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Omni-Charlotte-Hotel.h6961.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [Drury Inn & Suites Charlotte Northlake](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Drury-Inn-Suites-Charlotte-Northlake.h2097104.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Charlotte Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Sheraton-Charlotte-Hotel.h11574.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Charlotte](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-The-Westin-Charlotte.h899229.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Cherokee-Hotels-Harrahs-Cherokee-Casino-Resort.h13319510.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [The Omni Grove Park Inn & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Asheville-Hotels-The-Omni-Grove-Park-Inn.h438107.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tipsy Pelican- The Best Place To Relax!
