Quaint and Quiet

A cozy little place that was very quiet. Close to Asheville and Black Mountain. Nice and clean. Did not have cell service on property but there was wifi. Owners directions, which were provided, were needed to find the rental as our gps stoped us short of the location. You probably want to arrive before it’s dark as the last stretch is a one way dirt road without much light. Once you are up to the rental the owners have motion lights to get you to the front door from the parking area. Kitchen had everything we needed. Overall a good stay.

Ideallic Cottage on a Secluded Ranch

Very impressed with the cleanliness and modernity of the cottage we stayed in. Our hosts were excellent and hospital, providing additional touches to make our stay feel special. The cottage is located on the hosts' ranch and is secluded enough to feel drawn away and reserved while only being a 20 min drive to downtown. Definitely recommend staying here as we had an excellent time! Thank you Suzanne and Gene for your hospitality!

Perfect for Our 1 Year Anniversary

This property was perfect for my wife and I to celebrate our 1-year anniversary. We had an amazing weekend and are very thankful we found this place. Gene and Suzanne were great hosts and made us feel very welcomed. When I asked for recommendations for how I can have flowers waiting in the room when we arrive, they went way above and beyond anything I could have expected. We would recommend to any couple looking for a romantic weekend in the Asheville area.

Nice little house

The host was great. The place is a little hard to find even with directions on the site and Google maps due to missing or confusing road signs (no fault of the owners), but it's very convenient to both Asheville and Black Mountain. The house is perfectly sized for a single or possibly a couple. It was very clean and had a really comfortable bed. I enjoyed my stay very much. A note to allergy sufferers or those with scent sensitivities - I was there on rainy days and there was a distinct scent of damp/mustiness as well as an artificial smell from the linens/towels. It smelled nice but was a bit strong for someone with allergies. Overall, I would recommend for a quiet yet convenient getaway.
