This is my second time staying at The Owl’s Nest, and it was just as incredible as the first, if not better because the weather was perfect this time. I was able to fully utilize the outdoor porch with epic Mountain View to take in gorgeous sunsets each night with wine and cheese, and enjoy my coffee each morning. Ann has created a magical garden, with gorgeous plants and flowers surrounding you. And if there is rain, there’s also a screened in porch, with a cozy couch and lamp for reading, and table for dining, so you can still enjoy the outdoors and the view. Even from inside, you’ve got an epic panorama of the mountains through the window covered wall. I can’t say enough about how incredible this studio is. It’s the cleanest airbnb I’ve ever stayed in, and so welcoming and homey, with thoughtful touches and beautiful art everywhere. There’s even a gas fire place that turns on easily with the flip of a switch, with a cozy chair and blankets next to it. And don’t get me started on the fresh baked bread that awaits upon your arrival! The perfect breakfast every morning, paired with local jams left in the fridge. There is no detail left untouched, or need that isn’t thought about, including USB ports next to both sides of the bed and toothpaste in the cabinet (it’s the little things.) There’s so much care put into this place. I could go on. Ann and her family are the most gracious hosts. And though the house is shared, you absolutely have your privacy in your own downstairs apartment with private entrance. I enjoy having them near by traveling alone, in case of emergency or should I need something. This has turned into my Asheville haven. Close enough to downtown, while also the perfect escape. I look forward to returning for years to come. The perfect, welcoming oasis!
