We had the best time at this perfect mountain escape. The front porch was everyone’s favorite spot. We would start and end each day there. The kids were excited to see a legendary white squirrel and a groundhog right in the yard. We hope to return soon.

Wonderful rental in a beautiful location but also not far from downtown Hendersonville. Comfy beds and well equipped kitchen. Lots of nice areas to gather. Only suggestion is some kleenex would have been appreciated and the Adirondack chairs wiped clean. Would definitely stay here again

Fabulous house, great location

Very clean, nice view. One of the most well-appointed houses I have stayed in. Shampoos, great towels, nice bedding, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, good tv and lots of channels. Very enjoyable. Jessica, the property manager was excellent, even bringing us extra candles when Hurricane Helene was approaching.

Great House!

This is such a charming house in a great town! We came up from Atlanta and stayed overnight ahead of dropping our son at camp early the next morning. Our boys especially loved playing baseball in the yard! The screened porch is so nice, as are all of the bedrooms! The house has so much space and we will definitely be back when we can stay longer.

A Great Place to Stay!!!

I have to say, our stay at Endearing Lakeside was better than we hoped for. The owner thought of everything,from well stocked kitchen with just about every pan, gadget, and platters, to coffee ready for brewing. The accomodations were well appointed with comfortable beds and lots of room for relaxing. The location was just minutes from downtown and all your dining and grocery store needs. The location was close to a nice lake where we enjoyed our walks in the morning. The communication with the property team was great, and in a timely manner. We will definitley stay here again and looking to book for the fall season.

Great House

Our stay was excellent! The house has many charming farmhouse touches and is very well equipped to accommodate a group. We stayed for a girls trip. We enjoyed the sunroom for both dinning and afternoon chats with a great view. The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked. The home is located within driving distance from many great activities both in Asheville and its surrounding cities. We spent time in Saluda, Hendersonville, and Chimney Rock State Park. Although we did not have children on this trip, the home is well equipped to support families with children with small touches such as games, a kid sized picnic table on the porch, and a sound machine in the kids bedroom. Overall, this is a home I would rent again!

Visit with German friends

A family from Germany, including two teenagers, came to visit me. We spent four days in Hendersonville before coming back to my home in Monroe, NC. The layout worked really well, especially having a bathroom for each of the three bedrooms with an extra bathroom near the laundry room. The indoor and outdoor living spaces were nice and big with plenty of tables and seating. We ate out on the screen porch one morning and played games there in the evening. The beds were comfortable, and the location of the bedrooms, made it easy for the early risers to get up and have coffee without disturbing the late sleepers.We spent one day walking around downtown Hendersonville and another day hiking to waterfalls at Dupont State Forest. The property was located well for both.
