Our families had a wonderful stay. The house is really fun, well decorated and well stocked with towels and soaps and books and games. It was too cold in April for us to use the pool but we enjoyed the hot tub and sauna, as well as the yard and deck. The house was great and Waisau was very helpful with advice and suggestions. It was our first time to Asheville and we really enjoyed it. Def recommend this spot!

Our two families with adult children were extremely happy with this place! The neighborhood is quiet, and we loved looking out at the forest behind the house. The hot tub and sauna were big hits. We had dinners under the stars, LOVED the shuffleboard table, did some work from the porch, and easy cooked dinners at home.

This was the perfect space for my bridal get away. The home is large and yet still gives a very cozy feeling. It’s absolutely beautiful. There is so much to do on the property and I truly had the most amazing time. Everything was spotless. Entry was very easy with a code. The host answered any questions right away and even accommodated us arriving a bit earlier than expected. The home looks even better than the pictures. If I am ever in Asheville again, I will 100% be staying at this property.
