Wonderful Mountain View!

We absolutely loved staying here! Upon entering I noticed the clean smell of the home. The beds are comfy, plenty of stocked supplies in kitchen and bathrooms. We loved using the hot tub and fire pit too. We would visit again.

Beautiful views out back and very comfy!

This house has a beautiful view from the backyard and back deck. It was the perfect place to relax. The inside is very clean and comfortable, especially the beds. The fully stocked kitchen made the visit easy. An extra bonus was the big hot tub and ping pong table. It was the perfect place for our family to spend a week.

Good stay but not perfect

Home was clean and accurately described. Grass needed to be cut. The driveway and door situations were not ideal. If it were mine, I’d put two twin beds or bunk bed in one of the upstairs bedrooms.

Cute Cozy house in a Picturesque setting

Rooms and beds very comfortable, well appointed home. We couldn’t get hot tub to heat up but were only there for a short stay. Would definitely stay again.

Nice but not what we thought

We loved the location. We loved the inside of the house. The outside of the house was a little overgrown. We were allowed to bring our dogs and they had fun. However, when you walk out the front door, all you see are overgrown plants, trees, and bushes. According to the viewing, it wasn’t that way. Yes we would stay there again however, we would probably prefer a person instead of a company. We asked many questions and got late responses.

Nice house. Amenities not so nice

The house was perfectly nice. Very clean. But the hot tub never warmed up to a usable temperature and the internet crapped out after a few hours. Also smoke alarms were removed from a bed room. Overall it was a disappointing stay

Great stay at a beautiful home!

This home was perfect and probably the cleanest rental we have ever encountered. The moment we walked in we knew we were in for a treat because it was so clean! The beds are super comfy, and there were a lot of nice touches throughout the home like shampoo and soap in all the bathrooms, all the needs for the dishwasher, and a coffee. The living room area was comfy, the art was adorable and our friends loved the hot tub. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Nice house in a quiet location

The house was very nice, well laid out and had everything you would need. Rooms were nice, the living room was really nice and the location was very nice. Not too far away from our destination but also far enough away to be peaceful.

Great stay with littles!

We had a great stay. The property is in the mountains which was very private and cozy. The house smelled fresh and clean as you walked in everytime. It was great for our two toddlers. We hope to be back again.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication
The location was wonderful. From the listing, the outside looked much nicer. When we arrived, the grass was pretty high (in the front and back), the plants in front of the house were over grown and when we went inside it was apparent the house had been cleaned but there were stains on the carpet in the main bedroom as well as on the stairs going up. I messaged the property, which is apparently a rental company, and didn’t hear back for quite some time. We were allowed to bring our dogs so I wanted to make sure they were aware we didn’t make these spots.The duvet cover on the main level bedroom bed was semi yellow as well as the shower curtain in the main bedroom bath. I messaged the rental company again as we had zero directions for check out. The directions weren’t very detailed so we did what we could and left it as neat as possible. The beds are comfortable, great living space and the deck and back yard are nice. We were happy to see it was fenced in as our puppies loved to run! The decor was very nice and it suited us, but we were not expecting the outside to be what it was in the front. Overall a good stay but will look for a rental from a person who communicates and not a company next time. Will also make sure to see all images of the outside property.

We loved our stay at Storybook. We didn’t want to leave! It is close to everything but far enough away to enjoy the quiet countryside. Not one complaint. We will be coming back for sure.

The neighborhood was peaceful and the scenery very nice. Weaverville is a small town with good food that is close by if you don’t want to travel back to Asheville. The house was very clean and comfortable.
