    Girls Trip — Our Own Private Resort! This home blew away our original hotel plans and we couldn't be happier! The beautiful pool area and outdoor area, spacious layout, and enough bedrooms and bathrooms for each of us to have our own made it feel like a private resort. The home was immaculately clean and fully equipped — great kitchen, a stocked coffee bar, giant screened TV lounge, and a fun game room. The host was responsive and attentive, making everything smooth from arrival onward. A huge part of what made this trip special was the quality of the accommodations, the stunning views, and the wonderful variety of activities the property made possible — from poolside relaxing to game nights and everything in between. Perfect for girlfriends' getaways or family gatherings. We would absolutely return!

    The remodeled home was exceptional for our family of 10 and a baby. The home was well stocked with everything we needed from coffee to extra towels! The host responded quickly to any of our needs! The home was spacious and well designed from the game room to the office! Our only complaint is we didn’t have a few more days to enjoy it! Thanks for a great vacation!!!

    We had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. It was one of the few places we found that was truly pet-friendly, which meant a lot to us. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. perfect for a family vacation. We didn't even feel the need to go out because the home itself kept us entertained with the games and amenities provided. Everything was well maintained, and communication with the host was great throughout our stay. We're already planning another booking with them by the end of next year and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed swimming, using the hot tub, and cooking on the grill. The host was extremely attentive and responded super quick to the questions I had over the weekend.

    This place was fabulous! The owner communicated daily to make sure everything was satisfactory. It is pet friendly with a small fenced in area for your pets to play. The pool was heaven on earth. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely reccomend and stay again. Plenty of room for everyone!! The theater room was amazing with the massage recliners. Its close to everything you need but still so peaceful.

    Property was clean and as depicted in the pictures. The host was proactive with communication and excellent to deal with. Greatly appreciated the communication throughout our stay. The property is literally a 15 minute drive to downtown Asheville, but far enough away that it is quiet and peaceful. The pool was the best part of the house and was enjoyed thoroughly. We enjoyed our time staying at the property and the family summer vacation. Thank you!

    We booked for a trip to Asheville! The location was perfect if you're wanting to be close to Asheville, but not too close to all the hustle and bustle! The owners were great at communication, and helped out whenever I needed! This place is PERFECT if you have a big group! So many different sleeping options and areas!

    This property was ok. Pros: The location, pool, and hot tub were great. The wifi was good. Kids loved the theater room and game room. Communication with the management was excellent and check in was a breeze. Plenty to do for all ages. Cons: 3 of the 6 bedrooms had no place to hang clothes and no dressers. One of the “bedrooms” was a converted office with curtains hanging over the glass doors doe privacy. The walls, doors, and baseboards were all marred and dirty and in desperate need of paint. Some of the blinds were broken. This property has the potential to be top notch. Some minor upkeep and routine maintenance would get it there. However, as is, I’d have to say I was disappointed and it’s just ok.
