Serenity Now

Overall, the property is nice and secluded! I’m not a big fan of the large Buddha statue and masks staring at you while you sleep, but overall very nice!

Place was ok, we appreciated the gas stove in tge dining room, internet was ok, a little beat complicated to go Ashville. Google maps did not update the repair of one of the bridge destroyed after Helene, the driveway entrance from the road is a little beat to road curve dans can be dangerous when you back up. But rental was ok, nice view and terrace.

Our family had the opportunity to travel to NC for a week this fall and found this amazing spot. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and everything was spic and span. The yard was fully fenced so our big old dog could roam. 10/10 No notes.

Hey Mary-Claire, Thank you so much for the wonderful review of Serenity Now! We're thrilled to hear that your family had such a great time and that the property met all your needs. Providing a comfortable, well-equipped, and clean environment for our guests is of the utmost importance to us. We're especially glad to hear that your furry family member could enjoy the fully fenced yard. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Wonderful place for the whole family. We enjoyed an entire cabinet full of board games. This place has an Xbox 1 and a Roku so you can get any streaming apps in the family room - I don't think those were listed in the description. One complaint is the primary bedroom mattress was old, and if not laying in the middle you could roll off the sides. Myself and my spouse did not sleep well, and on the final night, I slept on the couch to give them some comfort.

The home was lovely and large enough for three adults and a full-sized golden retriever. There were three bedrooms, all of which were clean and had comfortable beds. We chose this property because it was dog-friendly and had a fenced-in yard, which did not disappoint. The driveway was also fenced, so the entire yard could be closed in. The driveway is a bit steep but was manageable for a standard-sized sedan. The property manager was quick to reply and working with Carolina Mornings was very easy. The only complaint I had was we asked to check in earlier than the 4 pm check-in time, but could only check in starting at 1 pm, if we paid a $55 fee. We opted not to pay the fee and just spent some time at a nearby dog-friendly cafe. Overall, the home was lovely and I’d stay there again if visiting the Asheville/Weaverville area.

Walking into the house was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Quick response to minor issues. Mattresses were very firm to our liking, personal preference perhaps. One of our best family trips to date.

Amanda L - Posted: 10/31/2023 - Stayed from: 10/9/2023 to 10/17/2023

We loved the house, nicely nested in a quiet and gorgeous area, but not too far from Asheville and its attractiveness...excellent communication and responsiveness. This will be our place to go when in the area, and we plan to come back!

Francis G - Posted: 10/4/2023 - Stayed from: 9/12/2023 to 9/20/2023

Beautiful house, very clean and comfortable. The location was also wonderful. BEWARE the fenced yard, our dog escaped!!

Anonymous U from Cary NC - Posted: 9/22/2023 - Stayed from: 9/20/2023 to 9/21/2023

The home was clean and comfortable and had a great yard and a beautiful view. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the beds were comfortable as well. The host was responsive and helpful. The mornings were beautiful and peaceful while seating out on the large front porch. We would recommend this home.

What was supposed to be a two family with 6 people and 2 dogs get away for Thanksgiving morphed into just my daughter, 1 dog and I hanging out at this cute house for the 4 days. The home was very cozy, beautiful views, but in hindsight, would have been very tight for 6 people - the common living area was not that big, with only 2 couches, so not enough seating for a group. Perfect for us though! The only issue we had was not being able to get the fireplace to work. The kitchen was nicely equipped though it could use some additional cooking utensils, but it was fine for us and we improvised where needed. If you do stay, it's great that you can bring your own dogs, but if you don't you should be aware that dogs may suddenly show up on your front porch to say hello! The location of the house was convenient to the highway, so getting to Asheville was easy, but not much else around. Great for secluded getaways. We would definitely come back with a small group - 4 probably the max!

Great place for a getaway! Pretty much everything you need is there as far as kitchen appliances, games, etc.

Sara C from USA - Posted: 11/21/2022 - Stayed from: 9/30/2022 to 10/4/2022

This property is a wonderful place to stay. The house is spacious, clean, and very well appointed. Thanks to the host the house has everything you need to get cozy, as well as all the fixings to enjoy spending time inside and out. The kitchen is stocked with equipment, the living room is filled with books and board games, there's a grill with all the tools needed, and a fire pit with tons of seating. The house is also in a very picturesque and beautiful area. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Jay A from Ann Arbor, MI - Posted: 6/21/2022 - Stayed from: 3/9/2022 to 3/14/2022

The property the house sits on is very nice. House was cute. Love the location with regards to distance to Asheville & Weaverville. Housekeeping did a good job cleaning. No complaints about that.

"Enjoyed our stay for the week of Christmas. Temps weren't the cold we hoped for and there was no snow, but the sunshine and views just outside the front door were amazing! Thank you for sharing your home."

Christine M from Longs, SC - Posted: 1/3/2020

"Three of us stayed here for a girls' weekend away and we loved it! Very comfortable and homey, the accommodations were exactly as described. We arrived after dark and all of the lights were left on for us, so thoughtful. We loved the location and almost decided to move from Raleigh to Weaverville as everyone we met there were friendly and welcoming. It was just cool enough to use the fireplace and we took full advantage. Thank you for a great weekend away!"

Lisa L from Raleigh, NC - Posted: 11/6/2019

It was perfect. The house is extremely well-maintained and clean.

Kelly P - Posted: 10/1/2019

"As someone in the real estate field, I can not say enough how pleased I was by how smooth the team at Carolina Mornings made the whole process! Their entire process is hands free - but yet when they notice you aren't doing your part in downloading proper apps, they reach out to remind / check in. The housekeeping staff does a great job, making the home look extremely presentable, and the owners went the extra mile to make us feel at home during our stay. There are many property management companies that should take note of Carolina mornings process -- and follow suit! We rent from the beach each year, and it never goes this smoothly! I loved their little touches of rolling the towels, etc to make it look fancier. ;)"

Valerie Y - Posted: 6/4/2019

Thank you for giving us a beautiful home to come back to everyday. We loved white water rafting and hiking for waterfalls while it snowed! We recommend the Skinny Dipping Falls hike.

Victoria M - Posted: 8/15/2016

This house is lovely we love the fireplace in the living room, comfy couches beautiful view in the hammock. House was tidy and well kept nice private place just far enough away from everything to really have peace!! The only 2 things we didnt like was that we had to buy our own salt, pepper and coffee.and after our stay itll go to waste because we have that stuff at home. Also figuring out how to work the lights in the living room was a little confusing.Otherwise we enjoyed it very much and would definitely stay here again!!

Beautiful spot and nice home Just be prepared to be required to go to an entire other “portal” to stay here, and don’t expect the house to be well stocked. Communication is very disconnected as you never communicate with an actual individual host. This third party hosting company unfortunately gets a lot wrong. I stay here often though because/c the place is private and has great views

We truly enjoyed our stay at Serenity Now. The home was exactly as pictured and we had no issues finding the place. The property was quite large and situated in the mountains with great views. We would definitely stay here again when we return to Asheville.

"We would absolutely recommend Serenity Now for a small family with kids looking for a peaceful getaway to the mountains around Asheville. This house made it so easy for us to enjoy our stay. From the kids books and bunk beds, to the spacious kitchen and living room (and the hammock!), we had no trouble relaxing here."

The property is very dated and didn't feel very clean. Had trouble with TV and fireplace initially wasted a long time on the phone and then someone had to come out. The advertisement stated toiletries provided no soap was there. The bed was terrible.

I would not stay with Carolina mornings or any of their rentals. The heat wouldn’t get past 58 degrees on the cold days. There were stray dogs trying to attack us and charging after us constantly. We spent almost $2k with them and tried to check out a few days earlier, giving them a week and a half notice and they refused to switch our reservation because of their “policy”. They just seem inconsiderate and money hungry. The plumbing is also horrible.

Kyle P - Posted: 2/1/2024 (Airbnb) - Stayed from: 1/12/2024 to 1/31/2024

Hello Kyle, Thank you for your review, and we apologize for any issues encountered at the property. On our end, we had no feedback on a concern about dogs or plumbing. We did receive communication on heating concerns, which were due to an unusually cold artic freeze the area experienced. We apologize we were unable to refund your unused nights - after a period these nights become non-refundable. We hope you otherwise had an enjoyable 19 day stay at the rental, and thank you again for your review.
