Hilltop Haven

We had a wonderful time staying here with our dogs! Huge fenced in yard! My dogs loved it. 2 acres of gorgeous outdoors, hot tub, the screened porch, and fire pit were all so so relaxing. Activities are all within minutes of the house. It took us approx. 5-10 minutes to get downtown to shopping and restaurants. Such a cute town. We went to the arboretum to walk nature trails and view the gardens, also about a 10 minute drive. Kayaking nearby and the Biltmore about 10 min. Drive. The Omni Grove Park Inn Restaurants and spa had amazing views! Very pleased with how close everything was! To be able to escape to this beautiful place at the end of the day was an amazing experience. We had a great time in the basement game room as well. Will definitely be booking again!

This property is beautiful. Everything is close…restaurants, shopping (antiquing!), hiking, the Biltmore. The house is well-appointed and serene…private, quiet, and surrounded by trees. We really enjoyed the enclosed porch for winding down in the evenings. Don’t hesitate!

Perfect house! Close to downtown Asheville, blue ridge parkway, and hiking. Huge fenced backyard for our dog. We played many games on the pool table and spent many hours in the hot tub! Beautiful house. Very private. We can’t wait to return.

Perfect house! Close to downtown Asheville, blue ridge parkway, and hiking. Huge fenced backyard for our dog. We played many games on the pool table and spent many hours in the hot tub! Beautiful house. Very private. The only thing I would point out is kitchen needed some Basics such as salt, pepper, coffee filters, etc. We can’t wait to return.

Gorgeous yard with plenty of open space for activities. A fenced-in yard would be perfect for dogs. Fire pit with firewood, pool table downstairs, and two full bathrooms.

Enjoyed a long weekend in this beautiful, peaceful, and private house! Easy to get to many popular locations from there or relax on the back porch!

Perfect retreat in the mountains of Asheville yet close to restaurants and activities. Well-done renovation of a home on a beautiful lot. Loved the privacy, porch, and outdoor area. Will dry be back!

The house was very neat and well laid out. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and organization of the well-stocked kitchen. The host provided lots of little amenities that were appreciated. Everybody enjoyed relaxing on the comfortable sofa and watching TV - which was easy to stream. The hot tub had the cleanest water I have seen in a rental home. The house was located within a short distance of many local attractions. Definitely would rent again.

Beautiful place with lots of privacy and a fantastic yard for dogs (and humans)! Exceptionally clean, fully stocked, and very tastefully remodeled with comfortable, classy furnishings. The fire pit and fenced yard highlight the treed backyard. Delightful, screened porch for those times you don't feel like building a fire in the fire pit. Our only issue was the dank, musty smell in the basement. A fresh-smelling basement makes this a 5-star review. Excellent location with easy access to all of Asheville. We hope to return next fall.

I loved the couch and porch. My mom loved how clean everything was! Very elderly friendly. Thank you so much for everything!

I would recommend it to all. Try this place it is great and relaxing

The beds were very comfortable. The entire house was updated and comfortable.

Dianne R - Posted: 11/7/2023 - Stayed from: 10/14/2023 to 10/18/2023

My favorite part of the property was the backyard area. We sat outside on the screened-in porch, enjoyed the hot tub, and a nice fire in the fire pit!

Jaime C - Posted: 11/7/2023 - Stayed from: 8/3/2023 to 8/6/2023

We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The location was really central to all the things we had planned. From going to Biltmore to getting downtown, it was all a reasonable drive. The place itself was clean and had everything you could need in a kitchen when away from home. All around a great place to stay.

Wendy M - Posted: 11/28/2023 - Stayed from: 11/9/2023 to 11/12/2023

This place was a perfect retreat for us...close to the action in Asheville, but private and cozy. The amenities and style were top-notch. Wow! That bed is comfortable! The house was super spacious and the wifi worked for our remote work. Thanks for creating a great space!

We had a great family stay! Our son has moved to the area so we all took a trip up to see him. The kitchen was great for cooking, we loved the pool table and the vibe downstairs. We had a lot of fun playing pool and board games. The pups loved the fenced-in yard too. The only thing that could have been better was the weather. It rained every day we stayed but we had a wonderful time cooking and enjoying each other’s company.

The location was perfect to easily get to destinations around Asheville and still enjoy a private outdoor space. The furnishings were updated and beautiful. My only complaint is that there could be some more towels for the hot tub & an additional supply of necessities like toilet paper. But overall, definitely recommend this for your Asheville base.

Rebecca B - Posted: 12/20/2023 - Stayed from: 12/6/2023 to 12/10/2023

Was a great place to celebrate a belated family Christmas! The fenced-in yard was amazing for our dogs! Would stay here again.

Wallis M - Posted: 1/30/2024 - Stayed from: 12/26/2023 to 12/29/2023

The great spot is not too far from downtown. Felt secluded, but at the same time not too far. Easy to Uber places. Very cozy place!

Daniel C - Posted: 1/30/2024 - Stayed from: 12/29/2023 to 1/1/2024

Loved this house! Felt so comfortable and close to everything but still felt private and quiet. Would recommend and hope to be back!

Beautiful place in a great location, secluded but not far away from great places!

Karol M - Posted: 2/21/2024 - Stayed from: 2/4/2024 to 2/10/2024

Great location to visit the Biltmore and explore Asheville. Clean and had all the things we needed. The hot tub was clean and a fun extra.

Jessica J - Posted: 3/21/2024 - Stayed from: 2/21/2024 to 2/24/2024

This home was wonderful for us to stay in. It was easy to get downtown, to get on the Blue Ridge Parkway, to go hiking, and, to enjoy the breweries and the other adventures our group of four did. We did not utilize a large space downstairs with a pool table but enjoyed the hot tub and the outdoor spaces. We would love to return to Hilltop Haven.

Rebecca - Posted: 3/21/2024 - Stayed from: 3/5/2024 to 3/9/2024

Perfect location for us. Exactly what we were looking for during our stay.

Rejni W - Posted: 3/21/2024 - Stayed from: 3/9/2024 to 3/15/2024

We had a wonderful family spring break in this lovely house! It was perfect for our family of 5 and the property is gorgeous. It feels secluded but is 10-20 minutes away from everything we wanted to do.

Kate B - Posted: 4/23/2024 - Stayed from: 4/1/2024 to 4/5/2024

Our family of 5 loved our peaceful stay. The screened-in porch was the perfect place to read and the hot tub was the kids’ favorite way to relax at night. The home was spotless and comfortable— a true home away from home!

Molly W - Posted: 5/23/2024 - Stayed from: 4/20/2024 to 4/26/2024

Awesome location and home. Our second stay at this property and we will be back.

Caroline C - Posted: 5/23/2024 - Stayed from: 5/12/2024 to 5/15/2024

Beautiful home with an amazing backyard and screened-in patio.

Stephanie H - Posted: 6/27/2024 - Stayed from: 5/19/2024 to 5/23/2024

Great house, a great backyard, a great porch, and a great hot tub. Highly recommend it - was perfect for our baby, family, dog, and in-laws!

Joseph M - Posted: 6/27/2024 - Stayed from: 5/24/2024 to 5/27/2024

Beautiful home and property. Very private and we even saw a black bear in the adjacent field one evening!

Mackenzie W - Posted: 6/27/2024 - Stayed from: 5/27/2024 to 5/30/2024

We enjoyed our last-minute stay at this property! The king-sized beds were comfy! The kitchen had spices, starter Keurig pods, and everything we needed to cook meals! The property was fenced in and the patio was screened in which made me feel comfortable with our small pup! The location is awesome since it is so close to Biltmore, shops, and breweries! We only stayed a few days, so we didn’t get a chance to utilize the large basement with a pool table, TV board games, or the hot tub, but if we stayed longer, we definitely would have enjoyed the property even more!

Diane H - Posted: 7/24/2024 - Stayed from: 6/25/2024 to 6/27/2024

Great house! Very comfortable and had all that we needed to have a fabulous stay. Thank you!

Lesley L - Posted: 7/24/2024 - Stayed from: 7/20/2024 to 7/23/2024

Nice place. The grill, hot tub, and back patio were nice amenities to have 😍 Nice to have about an acre of yard to walk play, and have fun on. Quiet area.

Jared W - Posted: 8/28/2024 - Stayed from: 8/18/2024 to 8/25/2024

Love this house. Great location very clean and perfect

Caroline C - Posted: 9/25/2024 - Stayed from: 9/7/2024 to 9/11/2024

There is plenty of outdoor space to relax or let the kids run around. It rained a good portion of the time we stayed, and having that screened-in back porch allowed us to still enjoy our surroundings without getting wet. The hot tub was wonderful and impeccably clean (and covered under the porch). Our toddlers loved the room with the two daybeds (with trundles) and had a blast playing on them. Each bedroom had a fan, which was always a necessity for me at night. I'm used to memory foam mattresses, but these mattresses were extremely comfortable and relieved any back pain I had. The pool table downstairs was fun to play with, and the kitchen was stocked with every utensil you could need, and it was all clean. We loved this place so much and only wished we stayed longer to enjoy it more. I hope they are OK after the storm and continue to use AirBnb because we want to go back!

Just as described. Very clean and a great place to rest. We came to help with Samaritans Purse to volunteer to help with the hurricane recovery. We would stay here again. We liked the quiet location. We did bring our firewood for the fireplace. We are glad we were able to start a fire as it was cold during our visit. Lovely setting.

Cherie E - Posted: 1/13/2025 - Stayed from: 11/22/2024 to 11/26/2024

The home is just as it looks in pictures and is described. It was great! We will be back.

We’ve stayed at a lot of Airbnb over the years, but this was by far our favorite. Everything about this location was exceptional. If you’re on the fence about whether or not to book, BOOK! You will not regret your stay. The house was immaculate, with clean sheets, clear instructions, and best of all… no crazy cleaning requirements. If we are in the area again, we will 10/10 stay here. Thank you, thank you, thank you for an incredible stay.

Tia P - Posted: 1/13/2025 - Stayed from: 12/14/2024 to 12/21/2024

This location had exactly what we needed for our Asheville stay! The large backyard was also perfect for our friend’s dog that came with us. The Airbnb was clean upon arrival, it had everything we needed for our stay, and the hosts were very responsive ahead of check-in when we had a couple of minor questions.

Taylor F - Posted: 1/13/2025 - Stayed from: 1/1/2025 to 1/5/2025

This home is exceptional. The fenced yard is enormous and was perfect for our dogs. The home is exactly as described. There were a lot of linens and blankets, and we adored the indoor fireplace, outdoor fire pit, and hot tub. We can’t wait to come back!

Avery N - Posted: 3/11/2025 - Stayed from: 2/25/2025 to 3/2/2025

Truly enjoyed our stay! Beds and pillows are VERY comfortable. We enjoyed comfy and cozy nights hanging out in the living room and enjoyed all of the natural light coming into the house. The backyard and hot tub were both accessible and exceeded our expectations. Our pup was able to safely roam the yard and the hot tub was clean and relaxing! The kitchen has everything you need, as we cooked most of our own meals. Would totally book again :)
