This is our second stay at Steve and Louise’s lovely home, and despite the pandemic it was a perfect week! The home is convenient to everything, extremely clean, beautiful views, and peaceful. There are many thoughtful amenities included, in case you forget something.
Although we went into town for a patio lunch one day, we primarily focused on hiking and R&R and were not disappointed. We had the rare pleasure of seeing not 1, but 3 black bears on this trip. The first was on a hike on the MST behind the Folk Art Center...about 20’ off the trail. Luckily the bear didn’t want to be seen, so we kept going! The real treat was seeing the other 2 bears walk from the path next to the driveway and mosey on up the drive and turn right to go up the road!! They were about 2 hours apart from each other...we feel so lucky we got to see them!! We have spent so much time looking at the ever-changing mountain views that we never thought to look out the other side of the house!!
Even if you don’t see a bear, this is the ideal place to stay when coming to Asheville!!
