The house was clean, and the listing looked exactly as posted. Also close to attractions such as Biltmore and The Grove. Neighborbood is very quiet. The only disadvantage is there was no access to the outside trashcan or the garage like the listing had stated.

Great Stay!

The house was lovely and very nicely stocked with the essentials and they even left a bottle of wine and some snacks. Bedding and towels were great quality. Made us literally feel like we were staying with friends. This is not a good choice for people with babies or small children.

Great location, cute house

Our family of 4 stayed here for a quick weekend get-away. The house is close to town and has great views from the front. It overlooks a river and the Biltmore Estate grounds beyond. The rooms are a good size and comfortable. We were able to hike, enjoy the pinball museum/arcade, the breweries, and the Biltmore in 48 hours. Plus a hot tub dip while snowing!

Great Location

Our week long stay in Asheville was great for our family of five.The house is in an ideal location to all things Asheville for example-5 minute drive to River Arts District, 10 min drive to downtown Asheville. We used the park and trail right across the street everyday for walks/runs. It's great! The house was clean and well stocked. Easy check in/check out. There is some road noise out on the decks but otherwise it is a great place to stay.

Beautiful townhouse, with views of river. Very clean, nice furnishings.very convenient to lots of things. I would enjoy it more in warmer weather due to closeness to river. My only suggestion would be needs measuring spoons and some pot holders. But overall a beautiful home.
