Marilynn was a terrific host and instantly made us feel at home when we arrived. Her home is lovely and exudes a very calming atmosphere, which was perfect after a long day of hiking! She was very easy to get in contact with and left us a key out just incase we arrived late. The room was very clean with a bed comfortable and plenty of space to move around. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and less than 10 minutes to the heart of downtown Asheville. Marilynn was also very accommodating of our dog and very easy to work with. If you're thinking of visiting Asheville, you won't have a much better place to stay than at Marilynn's home.
