This house had its literal ups and downs for me and my travel companions. The house is in a great location. Not far from downtown and within a 10-20 minute drive for anything else close to Asheville. Check-in was made very easy and we did not have to rely on the host being present. We had plenty of room inside and there were enough beds to fit at least 6-8 comfortably. We had plenty of clean towels and access to a washer and dryer if needed. The kitchen was clean and ready to use if needed. Elizabeth (host) also placed helpful notes everywhere on how to use things.
There is a warning for a steep driveway, but you do not understand steep until you experience it with this one. I have a Honda Civic Hybrid and it did just fine going down the driveway, but after driving 3+hours it was not able to make it back up the hill. We tried a running start (as much as we could get, not much room at the bottom) which didn't work and then we tried going in reverse, which also failed. And yes my car runs just fine...After a nights rest and a cool engine we were finally able to get the car up the hill in reverse. Now that being said there is no alternate parking on the street above if you did not want to chance going back down. It is a very small cul de sac and the neighbor above the airbnb was very unhappy with us parking at the top of the driveway (even though we explained the situation).
We also had a fair amount of millipedes we would find on the floor but I guess that is to be expected in the mountains. We just picked them up and put them back outside in the flowerbed. I feel our biggest issue was the parking situation.
Overall we had a great trip and this airbnb was in a very convenient location for all the activities we had planned. Elizabeth was timely in responding to texts messages and offered some solutions to the parking issue but they did not work out too well for us.
