Loved the space; loved getting some idea of the history of Moog. We walked to the popular Farmer’s Market and there’s good food and custard ice cream within walking distance on Merriman. Biggest forest of paw paw trees in the back! Amazing to see.

Farmhouse

The house was in need of some work..I swept the porch and cleaned off the outside furniture and the top of the porch rail that had marine from other peoples cups etc...I really did not like opening the bathroom cabinets and finding I guess whatever other guests had left in the cabinets. The drain did work in the bathroom sink..we tried to tape up the front of the kitchen sink but that whole cabinet needs some work,,I did not want to put this online but I guess I expected much more for the money. That being said our party was great and the location was very good for us.

Lovely stay

Check-in was easy. The property is in a woodsy area and slightly difficult to locate but it is worth the trouble because it feels secluded and the views are gorgeous with equally lovely walking and running trails nearby. The bedrooms were comfortable and we all slept well. The kitchen was well-stocked with appliances and eating utensils and it was immaculate. It was over 90• while we were there but the front porch was shaded and comfortable and the a/c did an excellent job cooling the house. Not within walking distance of downtown but the drive is an easy 10 minutes. My group of active women aged 40-75 had a great time and would happily stay at the Moog House again.

Great house and location

We had a girls weekend in Asheville and picked this house for the size and location. The location was perfect for everything we did. The house had 4 nice sized bedrooms. The house was very clean. We had a snafu with our arrival instructions but the owner jumped right on it once he realized there was an issue. We will definitely book this home again.

40th Birthday Trip

My friends and I came to town as we all turn 40 in the near future. We had an excellent time exploring Asheville and it was super easy to get everywhere we wanted to from the house. The house itself was great as we had enough room to spread out and space to gather together when we wanted to hang out and enjoy the company. Would book again!

Amazing place to stay

We had a wonderful time staying in the Moog farmhouse. Easy access to all our activities. The beds were super comfortable and we had everything we need. Ben was amazing and very responsive to our inquiries. Our only surprise was there’s a tenant upstairs and downstairs. I probably just missed that on the listing.

Beautiful property with seclusion but close to everything

My family has a great stay. The property is big and feels secluded. The front porch is also large and is a great place to spend time especially when it rains. The living areas felt spacious enough for our family to spend time together. The kitchen was well appointed and we were easily able to cook large dinners for our family. Quick response from Ben, the property manager, when we ran out of toilet paper. He sent it over via Uber and it arrived in 15 minutes.

Perfect Bike Adventure

The farmhouse was a perfect retreat for Yankees visiting to ride bikes up Mount Mitchell. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the AC units were fabulous. The wildlife visiting the property was such fun to watch! The turkeys were hilarious hanging out in the trees, and a bear strolled by on the road one morning! The host was an excellent communicator through the process and we all enjoyed our stay very much. Heads up for folks visiting from flat areas--the steep curvy driveway to the farmhouse was daunting the first time down, but you learn pretty quickly how to navigate the terrain.

Bach parties be aware, tenants live under same roof - Amazing property and location

The neighborhood was beautiful and in a great location. Ben was very help and provided prompt answers to any questions and was able to get us into the house early. The only thing that I felt was misleading was in regards to the tenants "living in auxiliary units on premise". I took this to mean they lived in a different structure outside the house we were staying in. This thought was reaffirmed when Ben messaged me the overall rules stating "Please keep in mind there are two tenants in other units at the property". With a farmhouse, its reasonable to assume there are multiple houses on the property. In fact, the tenants live above and below the rental space, which wasn't a major deal, but I wouldn't have booked this house had I had known. This was not an ideal setup for a bachelor party; not that they complained of noise, but just in general. Also stuffing 14 people in this place seems a bit tough. We only had 12 and didn't have enough places for everyone to sleep but again, its a bachelor party and anything can be overcome at a bachelor party. All in all, we did have a great stay in Asheville and very much appreciated the stay at Ben's place.
