About the host

Hosted by Jocelyn D.

Host profile image
After a workaholic decade in the medical field running my own practices, I decided to take a step back and spend more quality time with my family. Though I love being at home with our children, I really missed providing a quality experience for patients and wanted to be able to recreate that in a different field. Managing a short term vacation rental allows me to be a professional once again while balancing my home life. I am so happy to be able to share Barley's Bungalow and I hope that I've helped provide a space in which you can make your own special memories when you visit.

Why they chose this property

I have been enamored with North Carolina since I first visited as a teenager. Several trips to North Carolina and Asheville in 2020 cemented my desire to want to spend more time here. We love Asheville and love the mountains so we had a difficult time deciding exactly where the best fit would be. This property really allows us the best of both worlds. We lost our sweet dog Barley in 2021. It was always my plan to name this home after her. After we purchased the home, I browsed some photos my realtor took and found a sticky note on the refrigerator that said the old WiFi information. When I zoomed in, I could see that the previous randomly assigned WiFi password began with "barley". She was a sweet dog who wasn't especially extroardinary in any way, but boy was she so loved. Barley enjoyed watching birds out the window. The watching and listening at this home is peacefully perfect. Serendepity. We hope the memories you make in this home fill your heart with joy.

What makes this property unique

Coffee drinkers rejoice! We have many preparation options for you at Barley's Bungalow including a Nespresso Vertuo with pods provided.

Well-stocked kitchen includes: hand mixer, blender, slow cooker, toaster, mixing bowls, baking sheets, and a wok
