The home is stunning and is surrounded by breathtaking views. It boasts two kitchens, ample space, and enough room for my entire family. The location to downtown Asheville was only a 25-minute drive, which was fantastic! The only minor issue we noticed upon arrival was the presence of numerous dead bugs on the ground that were not addressed by the cleaner. Despite this minor issue, our overall trip and stay here was wonderful. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Calling this property “cozy” doesn’t do it justice, even though our stay was quite comfortable. The 360 degree views are breathtaking. We had the opportunity to view the mountains during sunrises and sunsets; clear skies and captivating storms. The property easily accommodated two grandparents, adults, a baby, and two teenagers. To e location is perfect for anyone looking for convenient isolation—the ability to enjoy staying in and popular hiking trails within distances that weren’t unbearable. Definitely recommend this spot.

House was impeccable in terms of cleanliness. The little touches were very well thought out and the views were awesome. We were lucky to have the cows graze nearby and the kids absolutely loved it.

Bluebird of Happiness
So much to say about this house, every window has a mountain view. If you are a multi-family group, this house is perfect because it has living areas and a kitchen on both floors. Spacious, comfortable, with all the daily living amenities we are used to having. Out in the country so it is quiet, but close to I26 which gets you to Asheville quickly. Loved it!

Nice home with beautiful 360-degree views. Close to downtown Mars Hill and only 25 minutes to Asheville.

The home is beautiful with amazing views. The photos and description need updating. The 5th BR is tandem with the 4th (only accessible by going thru the 4th so guests in both rooms do not have privacy & share a bathroom within the space) & the twin beds are child sized (no picture on the listing). The step from living rm to sunroom is very dangerous. Almost every member of the party tripped or was laid out flat by it. It needs to be clearly marked. There were no little touches typical in a BNB, no Kleenex and only one extra roll of TP. Found some dead cicadas / flies on the sunroom floor. Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned/used in awhile which is interesting- we couldn’t have an early check in (desperately needed as hosting sons wedding rehearsal dinner) bc there was a mgmt walk thru that day. Stating outdoor cameras periodically used to monitor grp-creepy. Feel Carolina Mngs insensitive to our situation-resie w/another company cancel w/in days of son wedding d/t double bk/septic prob
