My mom and my four sisters enjoyed the company of each other on our annual “Mamas only” trip…. We can have fun anywhere though. ;)
We were a little surprised though because when viewing the pictures online, it seemed like the [90 year] old farmhouse had been more updated than it really has been. Such as the flooring and foundation are very warped, uneven and feel unstable especially the upstairs (which doesn’t help vertigo issues). The upstairs shower has definitely not been updated and feels uneven as well. The staircase is VERY narrow and uneven which we dealt with ok but it is surprising that none of the reviews or listing ever mentioned any of this. I wouldn’t suggest this house to handicap or people that can’t climb stairs well. It just would have been nice to know all this when deciding our place to stay but again we definitely made do.
We had a lovely visit to the Biltmore Estate during our stay and a nice dinner into downtown Asheville so the 16 min drive there was not far at all which was nice to be close.
For being a very old home and furnishings, it was pretty clean though you can expect a little musky smell just due to the age of everything I’m sure.
The host communicated well when we had questions about arrival.
Overall, our stay was fine and we had a great time. We grew up in a small farmhouse when we were younger so we can adapt to most situations fine. :)
I will be more careful when booking an AirBNB in the future.
