Matthews place was perfect location for venturing in Asheville and surrounding areas. If you’re looking for a cabin in the woods like feel with an artists touch, this is for you. The house itself met our needs. The place was a bit dusty and had a bit of a musty smell. There were a handful of bugs here and there (expected for being in the countryside) but nothing invasive or too much. Incase you’re sensitive to dust or bugs (crickets/stinkbugs/spiders… it’s that time of year!), I’d recommend Matthews place. He was easy to communicate with and felt like a text away. Beds were comfortable and bathroom was nicely updated. Good shower pressure. A lot of old house touches such as beautiful creaky wood floors and a beautiful fire place. Backyard was very nice and had a great deck to sit out on. Only rated a little less due to cleanliness.
