Gorgeous views

This property is exactly as described, and was the cleanest rental I've ever stayed in. The mattresses are comfy too! Some curtains on the bedroom windows to help filter the bright morning light would be great so guests can sleep in. The rental has everything you could need. The views off the front porch are stunning! The location was perfect for our needs, which was visiting family in Leicester. Centrally located between Asheville and Marshall, and close to Weaverville and I-40 as well. If you want peace and quiet, but within about 20+ minutes from the action, this is a great choice! We would stay here again!

Wedding stay

Stayed here for my daughters wedding. It was perfect! Close to Asheville and lots to do. The home was perfect, clean and comfortable. Wasn’t sure which garbage cans to use. Other than that, we loved it.

Our stay at your home was wonderful. We had one small issue when checking in but Brandy was awesome to correct it. We were there to visit our granddaughter at UNCA so the home made a nice gathering place. Beautiful decor and very quiet.

Family get away

Long weekend with three small children. Very clean house with everything you need. Tv with all the apps, stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds. We visited the Biltmore and went on a waterfall hike. Stars were great at night.

Cute house

The house looks exactly like the pictures. It’s not too high in the mountains but you have views from almost every window. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and a few basic pantry staples. The beds were comfy and the furniture was clean. We had a few issues during our stay, insufficient towels and the dishwasher needed servicing. The dishwasher needed a second servicing so I hope it happened after we left . Management was great in communicating and helped with the issues as they came up within hours. We stayed during as the winter storm came in right before Christmas and the water pipes were fine when a house down the street didn’t have water, so that was definitely nice, most morning it was as in the high 20’s to low 30’s, and they house was always warm and everything worked.

Great Place and Views

The place was very neat and clean. It was located in a nice scenic country spot. Close to the city and big breweries. All just 20-35 min away. And 50 minutes to lake lure and chimney rock. Loved the house and will be staying there again. Property manager was easy to work with and responded timely.

Lovely view, spacious house

We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck, listening to cows and at night seeing the sun set behind the Blue Ridge mountains. White water rafting and hiking are less than 30 minutes away, and we had a comfortable house to return to each night for our family of 7.
