We had a great time at the Dragonfly cottage in Asheville! It's such a beautiful historical home, with character and personality and within walking distance to great restaurants, the art museum, and other attractions. We loved that there were so many original features in the house - beautiful fireplaces in every room, antique furniture, original baseboards, etc. Paula was great in terms or communication and attending to our every need.

Like most areas of Asheville, this neighborhood, has a high concentration of homeless people on the street. However, we had no issues with safety while staying at this house. The house is very old but has a lot of charm. We enjoyed our stay.

Loved the unique home, so many fun things to look at. The kitchen was great to cook in. Had everything we needed to make some great meals. The whole family loved the birds. Having a fenced-in front yard was great for our dog. The internet was a bit slow, but we did have 7 people. Also, the bed on the first floor is best for 1 adult, maybe ok for 2 kids. Great communication with the host, always got back to me quickly.

Charming home in walking distance to downtown. Very well equipped and clean. Check in was no problem. Would definitely return. If you keep the bird feeders full you can have a wonderful bird show!
