This house isn't horrible but it was probably the worst condition of any rental we have ever stayed in. It smells, feels, and looks like an elderly family member passed and the family rented the home out without updating, cleaning, or repairing anything. The photos on the listing made it look very nice compared to what you get. The outdoor couch area was very dirty and not even blown off after they mowed the lawn. We had to clean the table and couch before using. There were wrappers and rags from the previous renters on the floor in the master, counters were very sticky in the kitchen, no swing like listed in the photos, no k cup coffee maker like the listing states. This has the potential of being a great property but we expect cleaner conditions when paying high dollar for a rental. We will be staying elsewhere next year and would not recommend this property.
Older home. The pictures do not represent its current state on the exterior. The beds were very comfortable. It is in a great location. The kitchen is well stocked. A few lights and outlets didn't work. The water pressure in the shower was incredibly low, problems that come with an older home. However, the management company doesn't appear to be keeping up the property very well, as there were stains on the carpets, vines growing all over the porch, and the backyard space was dirty including an unusable firepit.
We very much enjoyed our stay at Moffitt Branch, especially morning coffee on the front porch. Outdoor space is perfect for Saturday afternoon football! Would definitely rent this property again.
Long weekend with my parents, sister and pup to visit the Biltmore and enjoy Asheville and a short hike. Perfect property, lots of space indoors and outside. It rained 3 days and the covered outside table and comfy furniture were great for dinner, morning coffee, afternoon naps. We had fun studying the family photos on the hallway telling a story of multi-generational happiness. Quiet, private location, 10-20 drive to breweries, downtown, Biltmore and hiking. Property management responded immediately.
This was a wonderful experience! The house was the cleanest I have ever seen from a VRBO property! The management company was highly engaging from start to finish! The outside fire pit was the perfect way to end the day exploring Black Mountain and Asheville.
The home was easy to get to and had a nice view of the mountains. The beds were comfy. Aside from dusty picture frames, the home was pretty clean. The bathrooms are pretty outdated. We wished there would have been blinds or shades on the windows (especially in the bedrooms). The moonlight lit up the bedrooms and the solar tiki torches reflect on the wall in the master bedroom. We had a nice stay!
What a location! Having lived in Asheville for 15 years, we have a fondness for the quiet of East Asheville and the proximity to downtown and to parkway.
You'd be hard pressed to find a better outdoor space in a local rental. The indoor space was cozy and clean, but slightly dated and a little small for two families. It was also a little odd moving in a vacation rental for a week with all the (I'm assuming owners') family photos lining the hallway, and my children were slightly unnerved at first, but we got use to them. You can tell there was generations of love in this house. There are no window treatments on the windows, but if you don't mind waking up with the sun, it won't matter. You still have a lot of privacy. Ultimately the outdoor space and location made it a winner in our books.
