Down on the SW side of town. Perfect for us, since we needed to be down there. 20m to downtown areas & W Asheville. Close access to airport. Felt a little like a Cracker Barrel, but it was a great spot to stay for our visit.

Ugh….. the door code/ lock did not work properly!!! Code to emergency lock box did not work, took forever to get in! Customer service kept giving us random numbers to input in door and lockbox. Finally local agent gave a lockbox number that worked. But that key kept sticking in lock, Oy vey. BE CAUTIOUS with this rental. Only one mirror in entire unit, tiny bathroom, beds comfy. Convenient location. HEY VACASA FIX THIS ISSUE!!
