David’s place was a great little new construction house just minutes from Asheville. The house was fully stocked with everything you need and then some. They left plenty of towels, blankets, and extra toiletries. The living room is very comfortable and well appointed and the kitchen had enough cookware for us to prepare a few meals. The back deck was very peaceful with market lights and a gas fire pit. We brought our dog and felt the house was very accommodating for pets, however, we did find it difficult to walk our dog around the neighborhood to go to the bathroom. There’s no real sidewalks and a few of the neighbors have “outside” dogs that roam freely. We had two run-ins with unfriendly off leash dogs in other parts of the neighborhood while on walks. Just something to be aware of, but of course, this is no fault of the host’s. This is a great place to stay if you’re looking for a good value close to downtown Asheville.
