I had mixed feelings about this home so I'm trying to be fair in my assessment. I stay in vacation homes frequently so I've seen my fair share. My overall judgement on this one: it's good, with some real advantages but for the price it could be better.
The list of PROS starts with location. It is a rural property that is still just minutes away from anything you need and many Asheville attractions - this is a huge plus, in my opinion. It is on a good acre sized lot with one other house but spaced far enough apart that you won't be bothered (unless the other party is really making a ruckus) and likely won't see another soul unless you go looking. The home is spacious inside and out - especially for us, just a family of four. Good seating options. Well equipped kitchen. You're paying a fat cleaning fee so the easy check out is a huge plus.
Due to the high cost of the rental the CONS grate on my nerves. This home is listed as "luxurious" and "updated" and it is neither. The TVs are not smart - there is cable but no streaming services. The furnishings and bed linens are dated. Decorations were tacky and even broken. The paint is worn and chipping in places. Do you hope the throw blankets are washed between guests? They're not - I can tell - dirt doesn't lie. There are railroad ties used as steps in the front and many are degraded and unsafe. It's definitely not accessible if you're trying to bring someone with mobility challenges. The house was impeccably clean and even smelled a bit like cleanser when we arrived but by day 4 we started to smell something rotten that they may have been trying to cover up. The weirdest discovery came when I had to do a load of wash and looked into the basin to discover it lined with dead ants - same in the lint trap of the dryer. I knew critters were part of staying in a rural property I just never expected to find a graveyard full of them in the laundry room. Further investigation proved there was some sort of infestation. I notified management, told them I was not complaining and got a quick promise that maintenance would look into it. So, just know your linens are being washed with ants, I guess.
So it was comfortable, good proximity to town, safe, and quiet. It's run by a management company which I suppose has advantages but none of the homey touches or personal connection that you get when you rent from an individual. I definitely would not go back to this place, for my money I can find actual luxury elsewhere.
