The house was a wonderful retreat for my friends, husband and our baby. A close drive to downtown, yet far enough out to feel like you are staying at a Smoky Mountain retreat. The place was clean, airy and comfortable with a fully stocked kitchen. We all loved the bathroom with water saving toilet. Mark was prompt with his responses to our questions and provided guides to local attractions and hiking maps. A big bonus for us: the front bedroom was large enough to set up our pack and play for our daughter. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this home to anyone wanting a retreat in the Asheville area.
