Everything Zen exceeded all expectations. We never met Mark yet he was very welcoming in all communications and in the things he left out at the house for us to use. We loved the interesting reading materials on his bookshelves and it was fun trying to figure out how he uses this space when no guests are present - such a well stocked kitchen and perhaps catering items? Anyway, it was super relaxing and unique with his amazing handicrafts/ decor. Kitchen shelves and bathroom especially.

GPS coming from North routed us in a convoluted way and initially we were concerned that we were in the middle of nowhere - remote, curving roads. However going the other direction we were about 10 minutes tops to heart of downtown and exceptionally close to our daughter at UNCA (over the river, down the road, pick her up, continue on to town - direct, easy). Neighbors quiet and not too close but no sense of isolation.

I hope to stay often over the next few years while my daughter is at school.

Thank you!
