Lovely "Nest" for a beautiful fall weekend!

Just as described,The Nest proved to be an ideal location for us and another couple during our fabulous fall weekend near Asheville. Though we're often skeptical of "pet-friendly" properties being truly clean, this lovely home was, which we much appreciated. It was the perfect size for all of us, and the very quiet neighborhood made for restful sleep each night. Communications with the property owner prior to our visit were efficient and prompt. Thank you for a delightful stay! We hope to return soon and certainly will recommend to others.

Great property but…

Super cute neighborhood and a nice set up. Our experience was the beds were not comfortable and there were lots of ants. We were looking for a place to lay our heads and this worked but no one woke up refreshed.

Girls trip

We really liked the house. Some of the pots n pans could use an upgrade. Also, in the top bedroom on the right, one of the ladies complained about the streetlight shining in the bedroom and disturbing sleep. Maybe get a light blocking shade for that room. Thank you!

Amazing!

The Nest (neighborhood) was located right off of 40. It was in a quiet neighborhood and had amazing views of the mountains. It was very close to small shops and local restaurants. Would highly recommend staying here if you are ever in Asheville.
