It’s been a long time since we stayed in a vacation rental and had such an amazing experience. The road to get there was no joke so follow the host's instructions carefully. It rained most of our stay so we were especially glad for the 4-wheel drive in our rental truck. The drive up was well worth it once we got to the top and enjoyed the amazing views. Upon arrival, we were also greeted with some homemade banana bread and a special note. Plus, the outdoor lights were on which was helpful in the dark. Cell phone service and Wi-Fi worked well. We appreciated the setup with two suites including king-sized beds. Although you can put 2 more people on the pull-out couch, we’d recommend sticking to 4 since the bathrooms are located inside the bedroom suites.
Bed linens were soft, towels extra fluffy, and mattresses divine. Some (certainly not all) of our favorite other small touches included nice quality t.p. (yep, we noticed!), homey décor, bedside tables with lamps, liberal use of mason jars for storage, access to a washer/dryer with supplies, hangers in the closet guest book, towels just for the hot tub, nicely stocked kitchen with high-quality items, and more!! It really felt like a home someone was living in while still being welcoming to guests. If we’re ever in the Asheville area again, we’d be back.
