Alison was a wonderful host! She met us at the property for a quick tour and provided some tips on local restaurants. Her home is lovely!! Clean, well equipped and beautifully decorated. The layout gives guests their own private space and a terrific common area to have a meal or watch a movie. If you are visiting Asheville this home is the PERFECT home base. Close to everything but quiet, private and the feel of a mountain retreat. We made good use of the covered deck and fire pit. We were sad to leave but are looking forward to a return visit.
