Amazing location and wonderful hosts!
Great location and a new, thoughtfully designed apartment. Laurie and Mike were also very accommodating and wonderful — they even allowed us to use their fenced in back yard to let our dogs play. Sorry about the barking!

Perfect for Travelling with a Dog
We selected this property due to it's dog friendly attitude, and it's nearness to Asheville. We (including Kali the dog) were all thrilled with the accommodations. Very clean, and with lots of thoughtful touches. And Kali loved hanging out with the owner's dogs!

Great hosts and a wonderful space
We had a great stay with Mike and Laurie. The space was super clean and perfect in just about every way. Everything you need is there. We brought it dog, the fenced yard is perfect to let your pup run around. Mike and Laurie are super nice. We meet up with them multiple times just to chit chat in the back yard. Excellent communication and super fast responses. I would highly recommend.

Amazing Asheville Thanksgiving
Laurie and Mike were fantastic hosts! The house was very clean, had plenty of dishes for cooking Thanksgiving dinner, and they always responded in rapid time. They provided excellent recommendations for hikes, restaurants, and other activities to do around the Ashville area. It's located in a nice quiet area a bit outside of Asheville, but close enough to get to the city center within 15 min. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay!
We had a short trip to Asheville to celebrate Mother’s Day weekend. We were able to stay here with our three son’s and our pup. The space was super clean, comfortable, and private. All communication was lightening fast and she was so sweet to us! We will defiantly stay here again and all of the dog friendly places around town is an extra bonus! Thanks for being so awesome!

Awesome Holiday Getaway
My wife and I stayed up here for a couple of weeks over the Christmas holiday. We hosted a dinner for family that was driving through on their way to Florida. Everything about the property met or exceeded expectations. It was awesome having a full kitchen so that we did not have to eat out for all our meals. Our dog Scout had an awesome time playing off leash in the fenced off yard. He especially enjoyed making friends with the host dogs. Our hosts Laurie and Mike were fantastic. They did a great job keeping up informed, anticipating our needs, and resolving any issues in record time. Their attention to detail and attentiveness as hosts truly demonstrate their commitment to providing their guests with an excellent experience. I have a co-worker that is moving back to Asheville from Austin, I have given him information about the rental to give out when people ask for recommendations in the area. We are looking forward to future stays in Asheville with Laurie and Mike!

The property is tucked away outside the city but is a 30 min drive tops for anything you want to see in Asheville. It is dog friendly and even has a fenced in section for dogs to play. Mike and Laurie are extremely nice and accommodating. The rental space is super clean and nice. 10/10 - Would rent again if in Asheville area
