Nice, quiet area! Lots of space, comfortable beds, enjoyed the sunroom overlooking the pond. Great views from the front porch. We didn't see Hershey the donkey on the property. Kitchen was well equipped. Had great food at Blue Mountain Pizza, Twisted Laurel and Yellow Mug Coffee in town. We didn't want to leave!

You listed all my favorite things! As for Hershey, the donkey, he has moved to our Honeycutt Cottage outside of Mars Hill. He is loving the extra treats. We hope to have you as guests again.

Beautiful view and comfortable stay!

We had a wonderful time here! We could have stayed on the front porch drinking coffee all day. The view was beautiful, beds were very comfortable, and the location was perfect. I would definitely stay here again!

Perfectly Quaint and Secluded

Loved our stay here...great location that is completely private and secluded yet just a short drive from everything. The home is cozy, interesting, and well-equipped. Spectacular views. We even enjoyed cherries fresh off the tree in the orchard. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Spring Break Getaway

We enjoyed a wonderful stay for a few days over Spring Break. The house was lovely and clean! The view was beautiful and location was close for day adventures around the area. Hershey, the donkey, was so sweet and we loved feeding him afternoon treats. Can't wait to come back!

So Relaxing

Our stay was so relaxing. The place was just as pictured and clean. Comfy bed. Loved the quiet location. My husband loved the fishing and I loved the library. We would love to visit again soon and relax in the hot tub. Hershey was great too.

Exceeded Expectations

The home was great, the location was awesome and secluded, and the activities and views on the property were amazing. The kids loved feeding Hershey the Donkey, fishing in the pond and nights in the hot tub. We would definitely stay here again. Our family loved it and the 4 year old wanted to move here.

Anniversary getaway

My wife and I celebrated out 25th wedding anniversary with a trip to a Asheville, and chose this property as our home base. It was perfect. Great amenities in the house. Also, a location just far enough out of town for privacy, but close enough to easily get anywhere we needed. I cannot recommend this property highly enough!

House stay

Hersey the donkey was adorable and a delight to feed. However, it is important to note that donkeys require at least one companion to support their mental and social well-being. He was on his own. The front patio was delightful. We saw some nice birds. It was nice to hear the frog at night as well. Hot tub was excellent.
Response from VrboOwner on 8 July 2025
From the owner: "Hi Jason, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay! Hershey has been a cherished part of our property for over 30 years. Sadly, his companion passed away 20 years ago. We have considered finding him a new companion, but Hershey has a deep bond with this home and the surrounding environment. Thank you for sharing your experience."

Short Vacation in Blue Ridge Mountains

This was a great family trip! We didn’t want to leave. We made the most of our time in the area (hiking, Biltmore, ziplining, eating), and this home was amazing. We were taken aback by the beauty of the property, the hiking trail, Hershey, the views, the hot tub - everything! Well stocked, with excellent accommodations! Thank you!!!

Our Favorite Getaway

This was our second time staying at this property. We consider it our “home away from home” in the Asheville area. We have no complaints. The home is comfortable and well stocked. We always have a wonderful time. Our kids always look forward to seeing Hershey and having space to roam. We’ll be back soon!

Beautiful property! Amazing views and plenty of nature surrounding the house! Small bluegill fish in the pond. The donkey was super friendly and fun to watch. Only complaint was the gas grill didnt have any propane.

Cozy Little Farmhouse

Our family really enjoyed our stay! It was exactly as described. The beds were comfortable; as we also enjoyed the pond, sunsets on the porch, and Hershey, the donkey. We found him some pears from a tree on the property and he loved them! We look forward to booking the house again, as our daughter attends Mars Hill University and it's only about a 10 mile drive to the school.

1-level farm charm

Vacationing in a 1-level home with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths in the Asheville region is not an easy find! Most vacation homes in the area are multi-story due to the lay of the land, so this checked all our stay boxes, including a lovely mountain view from the front porch rocking chairs. The beds were comfortable and the home was very tidy indoors. It was a very homey place to retreat.

Great mountain house

We loved the house and location. Especially loved the donkey and nearby hiking trails. The only issues were that the hot tub water smelled really sour and needed to be cleaned. Also, there were dirty diapers in the bedroom trash can upon arrival. Other than that, great spot!
