Overall great time, however, there is much that needs to be improved at this location. * Lack of window treatments, grill starter broken and no grill lighter, no fire extinguisher or fire alarms, zero shade at the pool or the deck (umbrellas are cheap!), pool table unusable - too close to wall and only one stick, ice maker dispenser broken, hot tub cover ripped and needs an arm for easy open/close, fire pit area is not level and the chairs are old and broken, shower liner in basement is gross, carpet upstairs is filthy, ceiling fans in larger upstairs about to fall off, etc. Again, overall good house but needs some work before I'd recommend this to a friend.

Family stay
We rented this property for a long family birthday weekend. We immediately were greeted with a text making sure we had everything we needed. The home was well equipped with plenty of supplies and equipment. There was lots of room for all of us and plenty to do including pool table, ping pong, fooseball, etc. The theater and seats were a nice added activity. The pool and area are well maintained. My only suggestion would be an umbrella or two for those of us who need some shade while enjoying the pool. We would definitely rent the home again.

DISAPPOINTED
If you are looking for a big home with a lot to do, this is a good start. Everything after that falls extremely short, unfortunately. The location, the view and the ammenities are great but this place is filthy and not well maintained. The entire home, especially the basement and first floor are extremely musty. The smell will sit in your nose and on your clothes, making it hard to breathe. If you are sensitive to smells, do NOT stay here. Me and my youngest are allergic to mold and we struggled in this home. A simple mold test would likely help the owners admit they have a problem and get it mitigated. The washing machine was so filthy with mildew and dirt sitting in the detergent compartment, which is why all the towels smelled like "old, dirty dish towels". The pool is also dirty and the hot tub was unusable, which really stinks when you pay to stay in a place to have these amenities. I did text and they said they have proof it was just cleaned. They may want to inspect the work that their vendors are providing because I would be irate if they did that work. They eventually offered to have the pool guy come back to clean it again, but at this point we were all disgusted. The worst part of the trip was when the two kids sleeping in the bunk beds got bed begs and spent the last 36 hours itching, which was followed with a car ride of annoyed kids. I would absolutely recommend searching for places other than this place even though the pictures are very tempting.

Not Our Best VRBO Experience
Pros: Location was pretty. Kitchen is stocked appropriately. Hosts were communicative and immediate with responses. Cons: Saying that the house sleeps a certain amount of people means that you should have seating for that many people (or close to it) in the dining room and the living room. Our family could never be in the same room together without 5 of us sitting on the floor. Carpets upstairs are not as advertised or as they appear in the pictures - disgusting. They are stained and crumpling. Beds are very old - some hard as a rock, some slept on so often you roll to the center when you sleep. Backyard is not fully fenced and under the porch is not enclosed as advertised. Our dog immediately got out of the backyard by jumping over the unfenced portion and had to go to the vet to get staples after slicing open his leg on something underneath the deck. If you don’t have a dog, the backyard is lovely. The basement bedroom was clearly a makeshift bedroom. In the pictures it appears that there is a closet in the room, but when you open it, it is a non-dead bolted door that goes into a garage filled with firewood. Creepy and odd. Every door that goes to the outside of a home should have a deadbolt on it - my opinion. Overall - This house feels like it could be great, but feels thrown together in an attempt to charge a lot of money to a larger group of people. If money were to be put into this house to paint the walls, update the beds and carpets, etc it would be worth the money. Our vacation was incredibly expensive and I do feel that we deserved more from a house that was that expensive. We would not rent again unless improvements were made.

Great Bones/Poor Upkeep and Supplies
The location and basic house was great. The listing was misleading in that it said it had been recently update (clearly not the case), there was cable TV (there was not), and it did not say we had limited use of the garbage disposal, which meant we had to get extra garbage bags (NONE were provided). Dishwasher was broken when we arrived, and it was never fixed. They only provided one dishtowel, so doing dishes was a hassle. One fan broke, but was fixed the next day. HVAC was out of balance -- hot in some spots, cold in others. We were admonished not to lower HVAC below 70, but there were no sun block window treatments in main family room facing west, so the room got hot in the afternoon. Meager towel supplies. Generally, musty odors in basement. Carpets worn and dirty. Pool deck covered with food debris/ants. Lawn areas totally unkept. Fire pit area overrun with weeds. Step to pool had a broken tile making for perilous step down. Several lights on walkway were out making it a bit challenging to enter at night. The good: Lots of space, entertainment equipment and TV viewing room in basement (if you could stand the odor) and expansive pool area (dirty as it was) makes this house full of potential. The owner needs to invest in cleaning up the house. It shows lots of wear -- eg. rusted air vents -- and skimpy maintenance. We would not rent this house again, or rent from this owner.

Three major issues - terrible rental company
The house itself was beautiful - and the pool and hot tub were a great amenity. Unfortunately, we had three major issues with this property - 1) the bathroom downstairs was overflowing during our entire stay, and management did not fix it despite telling us they would. This caused the entire basement to smell like sewage and was unusable - which was difficult given 3/7 bedrooms were in the basement. 2) the code the rental company gave us to get into the house did not work, and caused our group to get locked out of the house in the middle of the night, and 3) the rental property’s communication about all of these issues were unfortunately terrible - they have yet to call me to acknowledge these issues (two weeks later) despite emailing and messaging them. Their staff handling our questions were also flippant and condescending when sharing this info with them. These three issues unfortunately tainted what would have been a nice stay.

Great launching place for Asheville adventures
This is a great location - 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and centrally located to white water rafting, hiking, and a lovely family-owned vineyard. The house is very nice, but didn’t quite have the room we needed. If, like us, you’re looking to bring a large family group, know that the dining table really only fits about 6-7 (four chairs and a bench), and two of the rooms don’t have closets or dressers, so people in those two rooms will be living out of suitcases. Also, the trundle bed is in a hallway, so anyone sleeping there may be disturbed by people going to the bathroom or the movie room. If we ever come back with a different group, I would definitely stay here again. Great location, big pool, nice fire pit, and nice indoor space. The owner and management company were very responsive and addressed minor maintenance issues very quickly.
