Clean and comfy

We really enjoyed our stay. It is very peaceful. The house is very clean and the beds are great. It is a bit of a drive into Asheville (the times in the listing are accurate), but if you want to hang out at the house this place is perfect.

Excellent! Weekend getaway

Beautiful community, still close to what we wanted to do. Extremely clean and well kept home. Beds were comfortable as well as living room furniture, very cozy. Kitchen and bathrooms stocked with whatever we needed. Grilled our food, ate dinner outside, great patio space, and enjoyed the hot tub. Highly recommend, will certainly stay there again

Relaxing Mountain Getaway

We booked this location with our friends and family and enjoyed everything about it. The fully stocked kitchen made it easy to cook less for our family. This clean and spacious home made it easy for us to hand out And talk, play games and relax by it having two separate loving spaces. We never got to use the fire pit or jacuzzi due to our other scheduled plans however we do plan to make this an annual trip For our family. Another sweet and helpful tool was the welcome book with all the local recommendations.

Relaxing!

The home was exactly as described. Morning coffee on the back deck watching the turkey and her chicks walk across the huge back yard. The views on the way to the house were amazing. The wifi at times was spotty but we were able to watch the Celtics win the championship! Remember to bring what you need as the grocery store isn't a quick drive. Will definitely come back for the next lacrosse tournament.
