Fantastic stay!

This is one of the best VRBOs I've ever stayed at. It's not fancy but the host is absolutely wonderful, the place is clean, the beds are extremely comfortable (even the pull out couch), and there were even extra amenities for our dog. Hands down will absolutely stay here again.

Great Stay!

We had a wonderful time at Valerie's place! My husband and I booked our trip for NYE only a few weeks in advance, and it was a perfect option for us and our dog. We didn't need anything else while staying there- Valerie went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable after an 8+ hour drive. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay near Asheville. Great amenities, however it rained during my stay so I wasn’t able to sit outside and enjoy the views and fire pit. I look forward to using the amenities on my next visit. Excellent communication by Valerie. Thanks for a great stay!

Small but quaint

Valerie was an amazing host! The space was clean and very dog friendly! Valerie provided some snacks and beverages, and it was very clean! The water does have a very strong smell and a slight yellow tint, but no complaints here! It’s a very small space, but was perfect for my husband and me, our infant, and our 2 dogs!

Apple Festival and Hiking

We spent the Labor Day weekend at Valerie's place. It was a beautiful setting in the NC mountains, well set up for the 2 of us and our dog. Driving the local roads to and from all of our adventures was incredible, so much beauty. Everything was accurately described and we will definitely go back. Thanks to Valerie!!

Everything you need for a wonderful stay

Valerie couldn't have been more accommodating. The house is small but furnished well. Nice little touches that you usually don't find in a rental made it feel very cozy and comfortable. The kitchen had all I needed and more to cook breakfast and dinner. We used the grill outback and it worked well. The enclosed backyard was great for our yellow lab. The house is convenient to Asheville and Biltmore. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a nice rental. Thanks Carl and Valerie for the goodies!

Cozy and well-appointed

Couldn't have been happier with our stay. We had two adults and one small child and thought everything was just as we could have hoped for. Very cozy and not cramped at all. For our first tiny house experience, I thought it was great. Location is in a very nice part of Fairview. Not far from Asheville or pisgah for hiking. Grocery stores and amenities within ten minutes from the property. Quiet residential area. Carl and Valerie couldn't have been more accommodating or helpful with our stay. We are looking to relocate to the area and Valerie was very willing to answer all of my questions. Wonderful hosts and home!

Beautiful Quaint Cottage Close to Asheville & BRP

My wife and I recently had a wonderful experience staying at this cottage. From my initial inquiry about the rental property to after our departure, the owner (Valerie) was extremely responsive (within the hour). We were looking for a rental property that met the following criteria: detached unit; permitted pets; clean; quiet; reasonably priced; and was relatively close to Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. This unit exceeded our expectations. Having a kitchen; refrigerator; and small fenced backyard (for our dog) were much appreciated. The VRBO description and previous renter's reviews accurately describe this property. I give it my highest possible review and I look forward to staying in it again!
