Scenic Pet-Friendly House w/ Private Hot Tub!

We will file a claim with the Better Business Bureau over Evolve Management. Thank you.

We came for a family trip to Boyd Christmas Tree farm to cut down our christmas tree. The accomodations were great lots of space for the eight of us. The views were amazing.

Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a month or more, inside and out. Not dirty, just effects of not being used. Dead bugs it tubs and on floors. Dusty. Outside, leaves and debris everywhere, on stairs, decks and other walkways and area around hot tub. And just generally an older house that hasn’t been maintained, inside and out. Ceiling fan not working, lot of light bulbs burnt out, sliding door doesn’t lock, etc.

Pros:The property held 9 people comfortably, there were lots of games/books/tvs to keep everyone entertained, the house manager was VERY responsive and did the best she could, the view was beautifulCons:The upstairs heat had trouble for 2 days and we had to get a repair man out twice, the house was SUPER dusty and dirty which has been reported before in other reviews, the upstairs bathroom shower was grimy/moldy, the tankless hot water heater is in the upstairs bathroom and was VERY loud, the hot tub water was green, the house needs A LOT of TLC

We met up with family post Christmas in this giant home. This house fit all our needs. The view from the balcony was breath taking. Have 4 en suites where everyone had their own bathroom what perfect. The kids loved the game area and hot tub. We give this place high marks. Also the drive up is steep but we did not need 4 wheel drive or special tires. We would definitely return to this gem of a home.

I could stay here for a month, so so nice! Exactly as pictured and the view was even better than pictures could possibly depict. The gardens/flowers were lovely and we loved all the birds as well. The hot tub was already hot and so clean. So impressed all around. Truly a gem.

This was a nice place to stay and a lovely home. However, there were quite a few issues. First, there is a “private residence” inside the house, so you’re not renting the home in its entirety. The yard had not been mowed, so the grass was pretty high. There was hardly any water pressure, so showers were interesting to say the least. The water heater was super loud every time the hot water ran as well. The room with three beds smelled musty, the hockey table’s power cord was cut in half so therefore useless, the basketball shoot was stuffed in a small closet area and the balls were all flat (also useless), and there were 3-5 pretty big spider found in the downstairs living space. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Such an awesome place up on a mountain. Great views and tons of in house activities to do. We had a blast and we’re not bored one bit!! We recommend this place to anyone that doesn’t want to be in the city, but still wants to go and visit downtown Asheville. We loved it and would go back in a heart beat!!

Great location and views as advertised. Perfect layout for the multi family’s in town for WCU graduation.

Pros: This house has ample space for lots of friends and family. Beautiful views from the two balconies Comfortable beds Communication with Donna started off well Cons: Needs a thorough cleaning. Accepts pets, which we were grateful for, but it was obvious everywhere. Carpets were unacceptable. Just was not clean. The kitchen utensils and cooking supplies were very cheap and lacking basic items. Kitchen was nice, but difficult to cook due to this issue. Please spend a little money here. Very few end tables. We were using boxes to put our drinks on, particularly in the game room. With the exception of the beds, most furniture should be replaced, particularly the upholstered pieces. Yard in back is way too steep to use. We could not get down to it. Overall lack of attention to detail. Shower head did not work in one bathroom, light out in another. My family and I have stayed in numerous VRBOs over the years. This one ranks average. I also texted Donna regarding a problem that did not need immediate resolution, but I did expect a response and heard nothing. This house has great potential, but it is not there yet.
