Very clean, owners were communicative, safe
Me and my family went to visit Asheville and after a long day of sightseeing we got to the house and it was really clean and felt like home. We enjoyed the bunk room for the kids and also enjoyed that it was pretty close to what we needed.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very clean house, no dust or pet hair in sight. Exactly as pictured. The hosts even included some breakfast supplies and laundry detergent and extra sheet sets in the closet. Very close to biltmore. The backyard is small and the back patio furniture is not protected from rain. There was some poison ivy in the neighbors fence and overhanging tree in the backyard. But we didn’t care. We didn’t need the backyard for anything. It was perfectly located to attractions and 10 times better than a hotel.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is exactly as advertised. Wonderful place for a group staying for a 3-4-day holiday. However, we stayed for a far longer time, 5 and a half months. It gave use enough time to see some house issues. The Management company was excellent. Pure Carolina their handyman where VERY responsive, and they fixed those items that were within their control. The owners need to know that the house floors all creak terribly. Upstairs hallway and Kitchen are the worst. It will disturb even short-term renters in just a few days. The kitchen appliances are old and need upgrading. Kitchen utensils were adequate but also need updating. The Front porch is the best! Great place to read or log in and work from home.

Situated very conveniently between Asheville and Hendersonville we were close to everything. The neigborhood was safe and inviting.
The appearance is as shown in the photos. My biggest complaint is the creaky floors. The are extremely loud when you walk on them.
Nice stay near Asheville city center. House was just what we needed for a family! Only wish the kitchen came with basic cooking staples like salt, pepper, oil, etc. Would definitely recommend the VRBO home!
Royal pines was a perfect house for our trip to check out Asheville. It was in a quiet neighborhood and just minutes to the Biltmore. It was clean and had a homey feeling. We will definitely be back.
Pleasure place
After a headline listing of four bedrooms, there were only three. I realized later, from Jen, that the detailed description referred to three bedrooms, but the main listing clearly advertised four. I learned of this discrepancy the day before our stay. The fireplace and dishwasher didn’t work and the kitchen was not well equipped. Knives were very dull. The one TV was very small and living room furniture was uncomfortable and not enough to seat several guests.
