My boyfriend and I traveled to Asheville for his sister's wedding, we decided to book Angelique's home for the week (October). The house ticked all the boxes from proximity to truly feeling like we were in the mountains/woods and we were initially planning on bringing our dog so that was an added bonus (we decided to leave her at home).
First, the house is so close to everything. I loved it - we went to Starbucks every morning (5 min), we were close enough to downtown Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. We ended up being able to do the BRP twice because of how close it was. There are a ton of food options around and we used UberEats to order food a couple times. (side note: highly recommend that you try Bear's Smokehouse Barbecue).
The house is so unique inside and out - the concrete is paired extremely beautifully with wood accents (including awesome wood inlays inside throughout.)
Angelique is an artist and has a work studio on the bottom level so you may see her couple times working away. Their dog, Martha, keeps watch but she is so cute and we weren't bothered by her at all. They do live on the bottom level but we never bothered and just waved if she was working. The neighbor across from the main balcony has two large dogs; at night, you can't see the fence so the first night, I was about to go rescue them but Angelique assured me they live there and told me of the fence.
Everything is so thoughtfully placed and she was so kind to provide shampoo and soaps. I forgot my soap so I really appreciated the liquid Dove soaps. WOW, the bed was SO comfortable. The linens all smelled great. The couches were really comfortable; the photos don't do them justice. The antique soaker tub was amazing; I bought Epson Salt so I could enjoy it fully.
Every day I saw something new in the house, it's amazing. I highly recommend Angelique's home if you enjoy art, antiques or nature.
We knew my boyfriend's parents would love the house and they were blown away. We will definitely be back in the future! Thank you, Angelique!
