Excellent communication from host - before, during and after visit. Perfect house for groups. Loved the game room, sauna and hot tub. We stayed in one night just to live it up!
We stayed with a large group to celebrate an 40th bday, and it was fantastic!Expertly managed. All the basics were exceptionally well-taken care of (cleanliness, good wifi, nice linens, etc.). And they were also remarkable with some nice surprises that we did not expect at the property. Our group of 15 was very pleased. So many nice touches throughout, and it’s been very well-curated for large groups. Highly recommended for your Asheville stay!
This home was in a great location and truly one of the most well-equipped houses I’ve ever rented! The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, and there were plenty of games and activities to keep everyone entertained. The layout offered so much space for our group to relax and enjoy. Communication was excellent—our point of contact was always quick to respond and very helpful. I would absolutely stay here again!
This house was incredible! Beautifully decorated, has everything - literally everything - you could ever want, need or ask for. The communication with the owners was immediate, polite, kind and helpful. Conveniently located to everything yet you escape to your own oasis away from it all. A truly wonderful experience and we will be back!
Beautiful, spacious property and a very gracious and helpful host. Every detail was well thought through and has so many amenities for young and old, you could spend all your time on property without stepping away. Kitchen was well stocked and we were pleasantly surprised by the welcome goodies. Overall, this place deserves to be a 5 star.
Beautiful home with many great amenities for all ages. Plenty of space for our large group of 13. Everyone loved the home and would certainly return. Sean the homeowner was great to respond to our questions and provided suggestions for activities and venues.
The property is amazing with enough space for our party of 8 adults and 7 children (ages 1.5 to 15). The kitchen is well equipped and allowed us to prepare dinners each night. The game room and games were in great shape and allowed a family air hockey tournament. We enjoyed the peace of the woods while sitting on the back decks even with thousands of cicadas thrumming. One night a trio of deer visited at the woodline. Yet we were only minutes from the grocery and the attractions of Asheville. The owners were extremely responsive and I would gladly stay in any of their properties again.
