This has to be one of the most underrated Airbnbs in this location. We had an AMAZING stay! Upon our arrival, we immediately fell in love with the place and could not believe it had few reviews compared to pricier, less convenient options in the area. Perhaps it’s just newer. It is extremely convenient and close to everything. It took us about 10-15 minutes to get to just about everything in the city and other activities during our stay. It’s perfect for a couples getaway, but there is a loft for 2 children if you’re bringing the family. It’s cozy and set back in a very nice neighborhood. We felt very safe the entire time. We went in late October and this is arguably the best time to visit Asheville. We sat outside in the mornings/afternoons and enjoyed the view of the beautiful trees changing colors and mountains in the distance.
Like others said, the neighborhood streets are pretty narrow, but during the entire week we were there, we didn’t have to maneuver around any other cars. Once you’re on the main road, the drive is absolutely stunning and picture perfect. It was so relaxing to drive it during sunrise and sunset. If you drive 10 minutes further up the main road, you’ll be able to cut through to the Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway, which is what we did one day.
The house itself is fully equipped with dishes, laundry detergent, soap, and a very comfortable bed. It truly has everything you’d need while on vacation. Our only suggestion is for this Airbnb to get nice wooden rocking chairs for the deck. We spent a good amount of time out there, but wooden rocking chairs would have made the experience that much better.
During our last night, on the drive up the main road, we did see 2 black bears which was really cool. As someone told us during our trip, they’re just like big raccoons 😂 Just let them cross the street and drive by slowly. Completed the Asheville experience.
If you’re looking for a place to stay in Asheville, it’s without a doubt in my mind that this is the perfect place. With its prime location, close enough to the city while still feeling like you’re in the mountains, another place like this would be hard to come by.
We will definitely be staying here again in the future!!
