Had a group of 8 guys stay here for a bachelor party weekend. It was an inexpensive uber ride to get to downtown Asheville and the property was awesome! Grill on the back porch, fire pit on the side, and just secluded enough between some beautiful ridges! Very quiet feel but plenty of amenities on the inside to where we had plenty to do just staying here. Would highly recommend for any group to stay here! Super clean as well and loved the stay!
We were in the area to mountain bike at Bent Creek. The house was just what we hoped for. Clean, great location and very spacious. Hosts were very responsive.

3 stars because…
New house, “on a hillside”, which meant narrow gravel driveway with drop offs on both sides. Solar lighting along the drive didn’t work, it was scary driving in at night in the rain! The kitchen was very nice, we were able to cook meals and it had all the pans and utensils we needed. However, the house was advertised as sleeping ten, which it can, but, there’s NO dining table. There are two wooden bar stools and then a bistro table on the side. There was no room for the 7 of us to eat together. (3 of our family members live nearby, they didn’t sleep there). Three nice bedrooms but only one has a closet with a clothing bar to hang clothes on. Upstairs bedroom very nice and large but no closet to hang clothes. Game room was nice, the ping pong table is in the garage and was dirty, something had obviously been spilled on it (and there was only one ping pong ball). The garbage bins being right up against the table wasn’t great. Gotta say, the cleanliness wasn’t good overall. Sofa pillows smelled awful. Dropped an earring that went under the bed that I had to crawl around to find and no one’s ever cleaned under there! Could be a really good place to stay with some attention to detail. A few overhead lights were out. Bruce did get right back to me when I texted asking if the driveway lights were on a timer because they weren’t on when we arrived after dark. He explained they were solar. But solar doesn't work on a dark rainy night.
We seen deer and rabits and had lot a fun. Within a hour from Cherokee and mins. from stores and shops. Really enjoyed our stay and would most definitely stay again.
Outstanding again!! Really appreciated the fast response when we had an issue. Corey was great. Very clean and well stocked. I will definitely stay again!!
