What's not to love?!
We had an excellent stay here for a friend's bachelor celebration. 12 men in their mid-30s slept comfortably, and the house was an excellent fit for our needs. Great view, close to downtown/River Arts so the Ubers and Lyfts are cheap, and an incredibly accommodating host.
Can't recommend this place enough for a stay in Asheville that needs to fit a large group. It's hard to find something that fits this many people this close to town.

Mountain weekend
Before even getting to the property, the owner, Tom, reached out to me personally to introduce himself and give us all of the information we would need. He was extremely accommodating, allowing us to check in early and the property was beautiful. It is in a great location and had plenty of space for 13 of us! We had the best time and would highly recommend!

Quintessential Asheville
This was the perfect place for my sister’s bachelorette weekend! It provided the perfect balance of everything that Asheville has to offer - amazing proximity to both nature and downtown, which is exactly what we were looking for! Ubers were pretty easy to get (5-10 minute wait with a 5-15 minute ride to downtown or West Asheville). With the river path being right across the street, we enjoyed a beautiful, scenic walk to the River Arts District and utilized the many activities available along the river (kayaking, rafting, tubing, etc.). We had plenty of space for everyone to hangout, play games, and eat meals together in a super chill environment! Would certainly recommend to anyone - whether a celebration or vacation with family or friends!

Reunion
We were in Asheville for a reunion of old friends. The property was everything advertised and more. Completely stocked and felt like a home away from home. Convenient to all the attractions. The view is amazing.
The owner was helpful and very accommodating to our needs.
My only caveat is the parking is a little tricky for multiple cars. We had three vehicles and managed fine but it was a little daunting for us all over the age of 60.
I otherwise I highly recommend this property!

Cool place. GREAT location!
The property was perfect for our annual family getaway. The view of the river and the Biltmore property is absolutely stunning! This property is so close to Biltmore and to Downtown Asheville. There was so much space and the game room lots of fun! The host, Tom. was fabulous. He responded very quickly and was very accommodating. I recommend this rental very highly! I hope it is available for our trip next year!

Magical Stay
Our family of 10 planned a Christmas in “the mountains” this year and we were not disappointed. The location was close to everything we wanted to do: tour the Biltmore House, going to the movies on Christmas Day, outlet mall shopping, touring the African American Heritage Trail, and just spending time together having a Ball. The house was well equipped with EVERYTHING we needed to be comfortable. I would love to return in the summer when we could take advantage of other activities.

Wonderful Asheville Stay
Stayed here over a November weekend for a family wedding. Easily accommodated three adult couples and three young-adult single siblings - all with their own bedrooms and bathrooms! Scrupulously clean; bed and bath linens were high quality. Living area furnishings were comfortable and adequate for the number of people staying there (something I've learned can be an issue with some rentals). Beautiful, well-stocked kitchen. The outdoor fire table on the covered balcony was a big hit and allowed for different conversation areas when we hosted the wedding family for dinner one night. Location was central to Asheville - if the weather had been better, we could have walked to the Arts District along the greenway.
We were able to fit a Honda CR-V and a minivan in the driveway/parking area, but it can require moving one out to get to the other and the short driveway is steep (use your parking brake). Sometimes the second driver would just park at the end of the street, which is only a few houses away. Also note that the house is on three separate levels, so if someone in the group has difficulty with stairs that could be an issue.
In all, this was a great rental stay and would definitely recommend!

Mountain getaway
This house is in an amazing location! It’s right by the river and walking trail, but a quick drive into downtown Asheville or the River Arts district. We had 12 adults in our group stay comfortably for 3 nights. The master room on the top floor is wonderful, and the balcony upstairs was a great place to relax with a cup of coffee in the morning. The check in and out process was a breeze, and the host was easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this stay for a large group or family!

All the big spots in terms of eateries and breweries are short 10min Ubers. Like 9-13$ per. Hiking was like a 30min to hour drive. Frisbee golf close by. View from the front porch of the river and mountains was great. House was super fun, ping pong and the balcony fire pit were favorites. Great location for a big group!

Our Trifecta Holiday in Asheville was amazing!
Our Thanksgiving-Birthday-Christmas Family gathering at the Mountain View Getaway home was absolutely perfect. The accommodations for the 12 of us was very comfortable as the rooms are spacious and the furnishings more than adequate for us. The location has great views of the mountains and river and is quite close to freeways, downtown and Biltmore Village. I highly recommend this retreat for family and friend gatherings. We all enjoyed ourselves in the home.
