I'm a public school teacher and my fiancee is set to start a new job. We desperately needed a quick getaway before the start of the school year. Ben's Asheville home was THE perfect getaway. It just so happened that there was torrential downpour our entire trip. Luckily, the house was so unbelievably comfortable and homely. There were so many nice little touches that made it all the more special: the map to track where the guests were traveling from, the chalkboard with all the tips on what to do during our stay, the touch-activated lights and faucets, the incredibly comfortable blankets and couch, the foldout chairs outside that also rocked... Most importantly, Ben was also incredibly accommodating, allowing us to bring our dogs. If/when we come back to Asheville, we will 100 percent be staying at Ben's again. Thank you!
