From the majestic Magnolia tree out front to Whiskers the greeter, I could not imagine a more perfect place to stay for my first visit to Asheville. What a wonderful, "hidden" getaway - a "secret garden" indeed! Yet, it is within walking distance of downtown. The grounds, gardens, and home are absolute magic and they will undoubtedly inspire your soul. The spacious room and full bath as well as adjoining private patio are a peaceful and private environment for relaxation and repose. The character and uniqueness of Asheville could not be complimented any better...creative, zen, bohemian, comfortable yet refined, grounded in nature...yes, it's all in this lovely space. Fresh ground coffee and accoutrements, fresh flowers, and everything you will need for your stay are at hand. These subtle details are testament to "exceptional" Air BnB hosts. Mary and Tim are the best and I am so thankful that they are sharing their amazing home - it is truly an expression of loving authenticity.
