Best Stay in Asheville!

This is our new favorite stay in Asheville! The cottage perfectly encapsulates the charm and beauty of the city. It’s just a 9-10 minute drive from The Orange Peel, making it conveniently located yet peaceful. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the soothing scent of essential oils, and the decor made us feel like we were part of an art installation. The space was clean yet super comfortable, like coming home to a warm hug. We can't wait to return!

Wonderful getaway.

The cottage is beautiful inside and out. The host is very nice and greeted as soon as we got there. It's a beautiful place with flowers and plants everywhere. The only down side is that I am very sensitive to strong smells and she uses some natural room mist and the smell was very strong the moment we opened the door. So if you are sensitive as well I would let her know in advance. Other than that it was an amazing experience. It's super close to restaurants, Walmart, main attractions and Downtown. We will definitely be booking again the next time we're in Asheville.

Enchanting Retreat in the Heart of West Asheville

We pulled into the level white gravel driveway(no small thing in Asheville) amidst a lovely garden and staring at a fairytale cottage that's part of a colorful purpose built artist complex. Wow! The copper conical cap over the door and ceramic inlays the the exterior walls provided hints of the delights to come. Texture and color and thoughtful touches are everywhere....carved wood, colorful and textured textiles, beautiful tiles, clever knobs. Scented and soothing body products. A practical and attractive kitchen and bathroom. The primary bed with soft linen sheets underneath a huge window with colorful carved interior shutters providing a glorious view of the sky. Clever use of interior windows. Easily controlled Mitsubishi AC/Heat units. Plenty of nice hangers for clothes as well as a lovely chest of drawers. Extra bedding covers if needed. At night the drive and walkway are lit by solar lights making the location easy to find at night. I also greatly appreciated having half-n-half in the fridge when we arrived along with coffee, spices, etc if desired. The outdoor fire pit and tub are beautiful too! The location is in the heart of hip West Ashevile and adjacent to the French Broad River and the River Arts District, but also very close to downtown Asheville too. Camille is an excellent host and we highly recommend her cottage as the perfect retreat/romantic getaway. Would happily stay again!

A Hidden Gem of Tranquility

Our stay at this VRBO was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by its charming curb appeal. The seamless check-in process, facilitated by a convenient code, set the tone for a stress-free getaway. Stepping inside, we were greeted by subtle touches that exuded warmth and hospitality. The artistic flair woven throughout the décor was evident in every corner. From intricately carved support posts to the rustic charm of reclaimed wood, every element seemed thoughtfully chosen and expertly placed. The attention to detail was impeccable, with artistic shutters and well-appointed furniture enhancing the comfort of the space. It was clear that this retreat was crafted with care and creativity, reflecting the work of a true artist. Moreover, the thoughtful amenities provided added an extra layer of luxury to our stay. From a selection of lotions to a variety of teas, each item felt intentionally chosen to enhance our experience. Overall, our time here was simply wonderful, and we would eagerly return for another stay. If you're seeking a serene and beautifully designed retreat, look no further – this VRBO is truly a hidden gem of tranquility.

Spring time west Asheville

Oasis in west Asheville. House brought so much creative energy and calmness to our travels. It’s far enough away to feel like you’re in a neighborhood but close enough we could easily get and walk to the river and west Asheville. Has an easy bus route near by too. Many ways to make a cup of coffee which we loved. Romantic accommodation. Did yoga every morning. Wine outside by the fire pit in afternoon. Fun little radio. Napped in the sleeping loft. Loved our stay.

Such a beautiful and serene escape

I was over the moon to discover this beautiful property was just as described. Every detail was thoughtfully placed from the beautiful smelling hand soap, the varieties of delicious teas, and the beautiful blankets and pillows. When you walk in you immediately feel at home and relaxed. I especially loved my visits from Rue the cat. I can't wait to come back in warmer weather and enjoy the outdoor spaces. Do not miss this beautiful oasis with so much to see nearby!

Beautiful little cottage

This was the perfect place to stay for my first time in Asheville. The place was the ideal size for my and my boyfriend. It was centrally located to everything we had planned and took less than 10 minutes drive to each place we visited. My only recommendation to those staying during winter might be to bring an extra portable heater for winter nights.

About the host

Hosted by Camille Cummings

I am a mother, artist, and teacher. I enjoy hosting guests from other places. Asheville is a culturally rich community and city. When I am not making art, I paddle board and enjoy the outdoors. I like to share what I have enjoyed for the past 20 years about this area with my visitors if they are curious.

Why they chose this property

This property is one of a kind- a three dimensional piece of art. The location is walking distance to Owl Bakery, The Urban Orchard Cider house, The Walk and my favorite evening spot - The Admiral. It is a located blocks from Haywood rd in West Asheville and Carrier Park. 10 minutes to downtown (driving)

What makes this property unique

The walls are clay plaster. The cottage and location are very quiet. The property has a colorful and relaxing feel. The main house has been featured in a local magazine for it's artful appeal both inside and out.
