This is an Airbnb dream. Serene. Beautiful. Comfortable. Perfect. Absolute quiet except for the sound of the river and the songs of birds, yet only seven miles to downtown Asheville.
Private entrance and driveway. My spacious room was appointed tastefully with two closets, a comfortable bed, rocking chair, desk, side table and three lamps. A gorgeous private bathroom complete with linens. Amy’s recently renovated home is a work of art. Her generosity, intelligence and empathy are a constant. She opened her cozy, lovely living room complete with a gas fireplace to me. Amy’s state-of-the-art kitchen was an absolute joy to use. She generously offered her dishes, pots and pans, etc. Half of the freezer and half of the refrigerator were made available for my use. Nearly half of her cupboard space as well. Amy made her washer and dryer available for my use; she even emptied part of a shelf for my laundry supplies. Amy shared her dining table with me. My meals were spent either in conversation with Amy (a gift, I assure you) or gazing out on her woodland.
I came to Amy’s home utterly exhausted – the aftermath of a difficult move. A month later I was completely restored in mind, body and spirit thanks to Amy. Though leading a very full life, she always found time for me if I had a problem or a question. Amy knows Asheville and gave me invaluable information. She loves nature and kindly guided me to beautiful walks and trails. Amy, though never intrusive, went above and beyond for me. She is a rare and beautiful person who sincerely cares about the comfort and well-being of her guests.
