Beautiful craftsman home in downtown AVL!

This beautiful craftsman home, within walking distance of downtown and grocery stores, was the perfect place to host friends visiting AVL! Belle, the owner, is wonderful to work with and prompt to answering any and all questions! I highly recommend this property and look forward to staying there again!

Great house and location!

The home offers a ton of space, and we especially enjoyed the huge front porch with the two porch swings and the large kitchen and dining area, which is where we mostly gathered. It's in a great neighborhood and only about a 10 minute walk to downtown along some scenic streets. Would definitely stay here again!

Convenient location, spacious, lovely outdoor space

We had a great stay in Asheville here. The house is roomy and lovely. We were traveling with four generations, and we were able to walk to downtown sites or hop in the car to explore the surrounding area. With choices for groceries just down the block, we enjoyed cooking and eating on the back deck. We'd definitely stay here again!

Successful vacation

The wrap around front porch was the best. A cool breeze made it the ideal place for coffee and cocktails. Conveniently located to everything in a colorful neighborhood. A proper bed in the upstairs TV room would improve comfort and capacity. Other than that it was the perfect rental. Ann

A cute, cozy house with a great location close to downtown

Belle took very good care of us during our stay at her place in Asheville. The house is very clean, neat, and comfortable. We had everything we needed (except extra toilet paper), and if we didn't, Trader Joe's and Harris Teeter are right down the street. We felt safe at all times! We loved the porch swings, the beds were comfy, and the bathrooms were very clean. This is a great place to stay!

Perfect for discovering Asheville

The location is superb, just moments from so many things including all of downtown. But the location is no better than the house itself and the way things are done by property management. Almost astonishingly clean; thoughtfully setup; great AC; back deck table with umbrella; broad front porch; plenty of parking...just ideal. And the house is a nice older house with character galore.

Perfect location

So glad we stayed here! Other visits to Asheville we’ve stayed right in the center of the action and we much preferred this more (only slightly) off the beaten path spot. The front porch is where we spent most of our time, even in 90 degree heat it was cool and pleasant. Perfect neighborhood, quiet and walk right across the street to get anything you need at Harris teeter. It was nice to have the conveniences of a house and be less than a mile to all the restaurants and bars. Took a stroll around the block and admired all the beautiful native gardens. Perfect, perfect, perfect.

Great beautiful vintage house, close to town

We had a great time at this house. It is just as lovely as the pictures. Just a note, the third bedroom with the pull out isn't really a great bedroom if, for example you're sleeping 3 adult couples. I could see it as a kids room.

Everything we could have wanted

This VRBO is a lovely home in an ideal setting. It's location is in a well maintained older neighborhood BUT only a block away there's a Trader Joes, Whole Foods Market, and a Chick Filet. It's also within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. The Homeowner couldn't have been more responsive and helpful, particularly when I left an article behind. I am so grateful for their kindness. We will definitely rent this home again when we visit Asheville next year.

Wonderful Asheville Stay!

We had a wonderful time in Asheville. The house is as described. The kitchen is well-equipped. Very convenient to Asheville’s downtown though you do have to walk down a very busy street (if walking). Very convenient to grocery stores. We had a very pleasant time! Thank you!
