A fully-equipped kitchen makes at-home meals a breeze, while nearby options like Whistle Hop Brewery, Flying Cloud Farm, and other family-friendly Fairview favorites are ready to explore when you head out.

Keep your group entertained with multiple TVs with streaming services, as well as an Xbox and wet bar in the lower level’s family room. You’ll even find an extensive collection of DVDs.

The primary suite features a king bed and private bath with a shower/tub combo. You’ll find two queen rooms upstairs with another full-sized shared bathroom, as well as two more queen beds on the lower level (also featuring a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub).

The home was exactly as pictured, and ready to host guests. We appreciated how clean and spacious it was, and that there was plenty of room for everyone to congregate or relax separately. This home is not managed by an individual but by a larger company. In the past, homes managed by a larger group have not been a positive experience for me, but this team was certainly different. They were prompt with responses and assistance during normal business hours, and easy to chat with. Be sure to notice that the home is not in Asheville, but was a short drive to major attractions and there are stores close by for necessities. I would recommend a stay at the cottage retreat.

Beautiful Asheville Getaway

Beautiful and very clean house with lots of space for 5 friends. “Minutes from downtown Asheville” was a slight exaggeration. Carpets have some stains and furniture is clearly geared toward renters but overall we very much enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Place

Our family had a wonderful stay! The home was beautiful, and provided plenty of space for all 6 of us; Our only regret was that the weather wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy the beautiful porch and decks. The location is only a few miles from Biltmore Estates and 11 miles from downtown. One can't go wrong with this choice.

Great Place

The property was clean and comfortable with a nice view and lots of outdoor areas. Great rooms with good amenities. We enjoyed our stay very much. The original home we picked became unavailable at the last minute. The staff notified us immediately and helped us find a comparable place to stay in the same area. They were very helpful and the change was managed with no hassle.

Great house and Great Response

This house was almost perfect for our sibling reunion. Only "down" side was the steps to downstairs were too steep for one of the siblings to go down because of recent health issues. Therefore, we were unable to use the downstairs to watch movies and or all get together. Otherwise, the house was a great place to get away from it all yet be close enough for shopping and sightseeing. Owners were quick to respond to any questions. Also, I would suggest you let them know that "Main Street" is a small road either just after light or just before light (depending on which way you are coming from). Most people think of "Main Street" as a major road.

Breath of Fresh Air

Girls trip to Biltmore The house was way nicer than we expected. The kitchen is lovely and entirely stocked. You shouldn't need a thing. The bedrooms are large and very well appointed with storage, hangers, bureaus for a nice long stay. There are extra linens! The bathrooms were a real surprise with extra towels and plenty of TP. There was no Kleenex, but when we mentioned it, it was delivered the next day. I've stayed in a lot of short term rentals and every one had quirks. This one didn't have any. The location for Asheville couldn't be any easier-15 minutes to Biltmore or downtown. And the rural feel was wonderful. This was such a breath of fresh air! Thanks!
