Minutes from Downtown & Parkway with Arcade Room!

Location, Location, Location! This home sits perfectly between city and nature being 5 minutes to downtown and the parkways entrance. It is in a quiet friendly neighborhood. With great WiFi it is also great for working travelers. We have visits from black bears, hawks, foxes, & turkeys often. The owner has taken great care to make the place feel like home. With the charms of the vintage Jukebox and video arcade games for fun.

The screened porch has a celling fan and outdoor table and chairs to relax. You may even catch a Hawk or Bear sighting! We are so close to the parkway they can be seen wandering around the neighborhood! (along with turkey, foxes and sometimes deer). Kitchen has stainless steel appliances. Refrigerator with freezer and ice/water dispenser, dishwasher and coffee cart with coffee and tea selections. The dining area has a beautiful blue ridge mountain mural that can also be seen from the living area. The living area has an L shaped couch that pulls out into a queen sized bed. We have a vintage Jukebox that you can play the old school records on and hear that classic record crackle! The home & TV have wifi ready for you to work on a laptop from home or just use for streaming. You can log into any of your streaming choices (also there is a free streaming channel). There is also a blue ray player for DVDs. It is a quiet neighborhood that you can come and relax at the house. The Arcade room is filled with old school games like Mrs Pacman, Golden Tee and Supermario brothers! Quarters will be provided for play. ( You are welcome to request more for exchange in cash) The bedrooms are simple and clean with memory foam mattresses and blackout curtains. Extra cozy blankets are in the closets with iron, ironing board and hangars. Parking is easy there is a covered carport area for one car and more paved driveway parking. Easy turn around. There is also the covered front porch with a rocking bench that sits nicely in the afternoon sun.

Great spot for a girls weekend!

This was a super awesome vrbo for a birthday/girls trip. It was 10 minutes from downtown which is only about a $16-$20 Uber. Comfortable beds and we loved the screened in porch! We did have to give Ubers additional directions to pick us up, but usually we just walked to the end of the driveway so they could easily find us. Overall, was a very enjoyable experience. Our only complaint was that we didn’t see the property dog who we wanted to see so bad! Haha

Older property, close to downtown, great location

This is an older home with some cosmetic upgrades. There was plenty of space for our family of 4. Location was great, close to downtown and Blue Ridge Parkway. Check in was smooth and house was easy to find in the dark. The only draw back for us was we could smell smoke in the home. My guess is a previous owner smoked; if you are super sensitive to smoke smell like I am, you may want to reconsider.

As advertised but better

The location of this property on top of the privacy was a plus. We were under 10 min. From all the places we visited. This was a home, not just a house to rent. The owner’s have thought of the small and large things that make it special. I particularly enjoyed the abundance of song birds in the morning and evening.

Wonderful!

This house was super clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. The kids (and parents!) enjoyed the arcade games and the jukebox. The screened porch was a relaxing place to have morning coffee and listen to the birds. Quick drive to downtown, easy also to get to the Arboretum, Sierra Nevada, Nature Center, and the Biltmore.

At 5 am there was a snow storm with temperatures in the teens. The property lost power. There was no heat, no internet, no electricity for 15 hours. We had no choice but to leave. We left Saturday after a few hours. We want our money back for the last 2 days. Please.

Everything was just as expected from the listing. Super clean and cute.

We even cooked two full meals and had everything we needed. I love the location as it’s a quiet place but just a short drive to downtown. We would definitely book this place in the future and recommend to friends!

Great location for hiking and going out in Asheville

Really enjoyed our stay. The only slightly misleading part is most of the video games do not work and they take quarters. They leave you a few dollars worth of quarters but even with only 1 video game working, it doesn't last long. It wasn't a big deal for us, but I could see how someone with kids would be disappointed.
