Tena and Sparrow Cottage provided a true "live there" experience from start to finish. We arrived early into Asheville and Tena was able to let us in, which was very helpful when traveling with our 1 yr old. Sparrow Cottage was EXACTLY as described and perfect for what we needed on our first family vacation. Not only is it within walking distance to downtown but also close to the local grocery chain which also was a big convenience. I can't wait to come back and couldn't asked for a better host or living space to truly enjoy Asheville. Thanks again Tena!
