We loved Lauryl's mountainside Airbnb!
My boyfriend and I stayed for four nights during the week. It was quiet, relaxing, comfortable, and clean. The home is in a residential neighborhood that winds up a mountainside (use your parking brake!). Although there are (gorgeous) houses surrounding, it has a feeling of being tucked away in the woods. The back deck was ideal for morning coffee, journaling, reading, and listening to nature.
Inside, the home is very roomy. We used the second bedroom as an office for remote work as well as the second desk in the living room. The internet was pretty good though spotty at times, but from our experience, that's just how it is around town. Maybe mountain interference with signals sometimes?
The amenities were great! A full washer/dryer allowed us to do our laundry (we'd been traveling for a couple of weeks). We felt like we were at home immediately. Oh, and the bed was so comfortable.
The kitchen was beyond well-stocked with waters, condiments, ingredients, cooking equipment, etc. There are several grocery stores down the main road (including Ingles, Trader Joe's, Sav More, and Whole Foods. And there were plenty of supplies in the closet if needed. Plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows were provided, and extras in the bedroom closet, too. Modern decor and renovations. Lot of natural light and large framed windows with curtains in bedrooms, but none in shared spaces (not an issue for us, just maybe don't strut around naked haha!)
The home is one freeway exit from downtown and there are plenty of restaurants, etc. on the main street, Merrimon.
Regarding noise, as mentioned in other reviews and the listing's description, the family lives upstairs and occasionally you may hear a bump or two, but nothing bad. The white noise machine helped. We had no problems with this.
If I had one thing to say of precaution is that it IS surrounded by trees, etc. so there was the occasional spider that got inside or made webs outside. If you go camping/cabining, it's what's to be expected.
Lastly, Lauryl was a great host. She was quick to respond and offer assistance. She gave us space but was available if needed and very nice.
We didn't want to leave yet and we're definitely recommending her place to friends and family.
