My wife and I were looking for a place to stay that was close to Asheville and Black Mountain, and this house fit the bill perfectly. We were just a short drive from the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Pisgah National Forest, so you can get out in nature very quickly, or into urban downtown Asheville in short order.. The house is adorable and clean, and the attention to details to make our stay comfortable, were everywhere. There isn't much of a view of the mountains, but the trees and foliage all around give a feeling of remoteness and quiet. Sitting on the deck was a peaceful and enjoyable experience, and with it facing away from the other homes offered a sense of privacy. We were very appreciative of the owners allowing our dog to stay with us. The house had some dog friendly features and we felt right at home and comfortable with him staying with us. The dog treats and toys made us smile the moment we entered. The house is small, but we thought it was the a perfect size for the two of us. We would consider staying here again in a heartbeat.
