Fantastic home. Even with -0 degree temperatures we had a great time. Great location, very comfortable. Huge yard, and we saw some deer in the backyard.
Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022

About the host

Hosted by Jason Frahm

Host profile image
I am entrepreneur who teaches meditation and life coaching. As well, I've had rental properties for two decades and am now inspired to host a vacation rental. I love traveling the world and primarily stay in vacation homes to support the local economy and have the convenience of vacationing in a home. It's a true pleasure to give you the opportunity to enjoy this home in the sweetness of nature.

Why they chose this property

Imagine feeling relaxed and at peace as you awake to quiet and stillness with the gentle sounds of the birds chirping and the deer grazing. You can take a stroll into the Olivette trails to the North or the Woodfin Riverside Park that both ride along the French Broad.

The house is set up for you to enjoy a quiet or adventurous vacation with all the amenities you would have in your own home.

This is a stunning property set in nature (with an expansive lawn and abundance of privacy with a forest of mature trees) with the unique benefit of being close to town. Also, this is the first time we're hosting a vacation rental and are excited and honored to serve you.

What makes this property unique

Front and back lawn surrounded by trees
Rural privacy but very close to town
Set up for vacation or staycation
Front & back porch and back elevated deck
gas + wood fire pits
We use green cleaning products & disinfect with alcohol
