Charming 1911 Ferienhaus im Herzen von Asheville - gehen vier Blöcke in die Innenstadt

Couldn't have been happier

The perfect location for an extended stay in the heart of Asheville, tucked away in a historic neighborhood walking distance to downtown and several neighborhood restaurants, wine shops, grocery stores, everything you need is right there. The yard is very small and the houses are close, typical of older downtown neighborhoods. I really enjoyed walking my dogs through the surrounding neighborhoods of grand historic homes. The cottage is comfortable, well equipped and the owner's very responsive quickly fixing a minor issue that came up. I would defintely stay again!

When I arrived for my two month stay, the house was so full of the owners things that there was literally no room for my belongings. After stuffing many (at least 8) bags full of things the owners son came (not promptly)and picked the bags up. When my daughter looked at the house for me she said the owner promised that “all this stuff will be cleaned up of course”.... also upon arrival the toilet water was an odd shade of yellow, and ALL the water seemed bad. Apparently there was some sort of issue with the city water in this neighborhood so we didn’t drink the water the entire stay. No one spoke to us about the water- not the owner or owner’s son.

The house is overrun by little ants. I was constantly cleaning with vinegar to try to get rid of them. We couldn’t leave any food out for 5 minutes before ants attacked.. there were no hangers, the mattress was ridiculous... we had to buy a mattress topper to get any sleep at all... there seems to be spiders everywhere. Black mold kept creeping through the grout in the shower... NO ONE contacted us at all the entire time we were there to see how things were going. ..nobody came to mow or take care of the lawn area the entire time we were there...close to two months, spring in Asheville...we were having to step over thistles to enter from the alleyway.... and it is an alley... houses back up to it and ALL the garbage can and recycle bins are lined up all along the alley.... and in fact the front yard view is of garbage cans. It seemed somehow, perfect.

This cottage was perfect for a one month stay in Asheville. There was plenty of space to spread out for two and the home was extremely comfortable. Walkable to downtown, and a very short walk to multiple coffee shops, restaurants and grocery stores. The small yard and patio were perfect for the warmer days and our dog loved being able to get out and roam a bit. The home was also a great base to get out and explore all of the surrounding mountains and forests. Would highly recommend!

The property had everything we needed, especially a washer and dryer for an extended stay. Many small amenities were available for our use. We did replace what was reasonable. The cottage was very convenient for traveling around the area. Main roads were easily accessible. Trash pickup was regular and our dog enjoyed the front porch. Hope to return in the future.
