The two bedrooms are off to the right of the main rooms and the bathroom is through a short hallway. An open floor plan provides a nice airy feel.

The location of the home was perfect. Everything we did was 5-10 minutes away and the neighborhood was quiet. A perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day of seeing the sites. We do not have any complaints. Everything was perfect. Definitely would stay again if ever in the area.

Great cozy property and location

The house is absolutely perfect with everything you need. Best rental I’ve stayed in. Full kitchen, plenty of linens, and great relaxation areas on the front porch or back deck. The location is excellent. Many restaurants, bars, coffee shops within a very walkable distance without the hustle and bustle of downtown, but also, downtown is a very short drive. We loved this adorable bungalow and can’t wait to come back!

Sweet bungalo

This is an adorable place to stay. Wish we could have spent more time there. I actually slept on the back deck in the little covered alcove since it was such a nice night. My kids loved having their own rooms that way.

Very Charming Home

We enjoyed our stay very much. The home was very clean and inviting. It's an older charming neighborhood, and we felt very safe since many people were out taking walks throughout the day. A nice central location that is just a short drive to just about anywhere. Would definitely recommend it.

Absolutely perfect!

My 18yo daughter, her 18yo BFF, and I (51yo) had a wonderful stay here! The two bedrooms are separated enough that I could go to sleep at a normal time without hearing them. The couches are super comfy and perfect for a movie night in, and the kitchen/dining area were great for our morning plan sessions. Very spacious and perfect for what we needed. The location is great with a nice gentle walk to some great restaurants and shops. We had a great dinner at Universal Joint followed by Moo cookies and then a lovely return walk. Sidewalks aren’t level, but I was able to manage despite my mobility issues. Very quiet neighborhood with no parking troubles. Home is very well stocked with teas, coffees, paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and even a first aid kit! I always have to bring in supplies to last through an entire stay, but with this home, I just left it all in my bag. Very pleasantly surprised. We felt like we were staying in a friend’s home instead of just another rental. Definitely recommend this home as a great place to relax in between exploring the city.

This is a beautiful craftsman style home on a wonderful street in West Asheville! We could walk to various establishments, had a great kitchen, two very comfortable bedrooms and a nice bathroom! Kristin was a great host and communicated from start to finish, and had nice clear directions in the home. We could drive into Asheville very easily, and getting Ubers for the brewery and distillery tours was super easy to find with very little wait. The Asheville area has so much to offer, and we will absolutely consider this home for future visits to the area!
