We have stayed at around 6 different rentals in the Asheville area since 2020 and each time we have been disappointed by something…dirty, bugs, not good for taking the dogs out to walk etc. Not here though! We have finally found a great property. The hydrangeas were still in bloom in mid September when we drove up as well as some of the other flowers. What a fantastic first impression! The gardens were gorgeous and well maintained which was so impressive compared to many rentals.
There is a wide carport so you can park under it and your car has a little protection (my husband was thrilled with this). There was a storm door on the front door and we were able to have the front door open, tons of natural light but still keep bugs out.
We walked in the front door the first time and were SO HAPPY to see that the house looked even better in person than it did in the pictures that were posted. It was spotless. Normally I do a dishwasher full of dishes when we first arrive at a rental because they are never as clean as I would like but for the first time possibly ever, I did not do it because everything was so clean that it didn’t even cross my mind.
We brought our 2 dogs & one is recovering from chemotherapy . This was our family trip to celebrate having a little more time with him. He absolutely loved sniffing all of the different areas of the yard. He was feeling so good that him andi would jog around to the different gardens. Really special memories that I will treasure & these were made possible by the property being so well kept.
There were so many nice goodies in the house that you could tell this someone’s dream home, that they did not take a cheap way out like some do to maximize the return on the rental property. The outlet in the guest bathroom has a LED light at the bottom of it that lights up when it’s dark. Just a tiny light but it’s perfect when you have a late night bathroom break &don’t want to turn on lights and wake up too much. The primary bath had a heater fan in the ceiling which I can imagine is heavenly in the colder months. The kitchen has everything you need . Shoot, the microwave even has a mute button so you don’t have to listen to the beeps or you don’t wake up others.
Ole’s Mexican is truly a 5 minute walk. A small brewery is across the street from Ole’s, and plenty of other options in 5 min drive. DO NOT MISS Louise’s for breakfast/lunch or Open Oven.We love this home & are thankful the family rents it out
