About this property

Private, Dog-Friendly Asheville APT. Minutes to *Downtown, River Arts, Biltmore*

Private, modern 2 bedroom garden-level apartment 5 miles (10 - 15 min drive) from Downtown and the River Arts district. Easy access to I-26 and UNC-Asheville. Clean, quiet, and spacious with a full kitchen. Luxury, hypoallergenic bed linens. Wake up to complementary coffee and tea. Stay here to recharge and discover the pleasures of Asheville!

The apartment is furnished, including a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, four-burner stove & oven, and coffee maker. It offers Wireless Internet, on street parking for 2 to 3 cars, complimentary coffee and tea, a hair dryer, and full-sized clothes washer and dryer. Three heating/air conditioning units keep the space comfortable in all seasons!

The master bedroom boasts a plush king-sized bed with the most comfortable pillow-top mattress, and a large dresser. The second bedroom has two twin beds (which can be made into an additional king bed) and also functions as additional living space. It includes a small writing desk. The sofa in the living room converts into a double-sized bed. All the bed linens are hypoallergenic. There are three closets.

The generous bathroom has plenty of storage for your toiletries as well as in-ceiling heat.

Well-behaved dogs are always welcome (up to 2, with an additional $75 pet fee), but no cats.

This private apartment is the ground floor of my mother's house. My brother, Carter, lives across the street and will be on hand to look after any requests.

Come enjoy the benefits of staying close to downtown and the tranquility of a private apartment home in a quiet neighborhood.

Lovely little basement rental

It was a great location and very quiet and peaceful. I enjoyed a good night sleep (if you like a firm mattress w/a couple inches foam top). Not a luxury but very accommodating to meet your needs for the price. And the peacefulness and location is worth doing without a super comfy couch or large kitchen sink. If I make it back to Asheville, would definitely stay there again.

A nice quiet stay near Asheville

Walking in everything was exactly how it was portrayed on the listing. Our host was extremely helpful with anything we needed. We were given excellent ideas for dining was not disappointed with any place recommended. Found the place clean and ready for our stay. Had everything could have needed. A great location close to Asheville and all the places we intended to visit. Would recommend and would definitely stay there again.

Clean and spacious

We only stayed one night but this would be the perfect location for an extended stay. Quiet, residential neighborhood but close to downtown. Very responsive and helpful management and great communication and instructions. Only suggestion I have would to change the listing description about parking, as you can't park on the street. Was not an issue for us even with an Expedition, as the off street parking was very roomy. Just different than the listing (or maybe I just misunderstood listing!).

Nice place

The apartment is very nice, clean (no dog odors or fur remnants, in case you’re not a dog person), and matches the description. The only discrepancy I see in the description is that parking is in the driveway, not on the street. I especially liked the spacious bathroom and the lack of carpet. The hosts are very responsive to questions, and Lisa was flexible and accommodating when I needed to change the date of my reservation. Carter was available throughout our stay, although we had no issues and didn’t need to call on him. Honey’s Place has a sweet backstory that is related in the guest’s manual. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

Girls Weekend

Three of my girlfriends and I stayed the weekend at Honey's Place for a girls weekend. It was just the perfect amount of space, very clean and a very short drive to the downtown area. I've previously stayed in a rental in the downtown area and it was loud with homeless people wandering about near our entry door. I really liked the quietness of this residential location and felt very safe. We were just a little confused with turning on/adjusting the heat, but a quick lookup for the HVAC system manual online and we were warm in 10 minutes. I'd recommend attaching a printout of that manual to the check in/check out info on the table for future renters. I will most definitely stay here for my next Asheville weekend! Jen

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Pounders

Host profile image
Born and raised in Asheville, I am an artist, writer, academic, and traveler who is inspired by mountain landscapes. Although I now spend most of my time in Santa Fe, New Mexico, at the foot of the beautiful Sangre de Cristo mountains, Asheville remains a big part of my life.

Why they chose this property

In 2018 my brother Carter and I renovated what used to be my late Dad's workshop into a comfortable and carefully planned living space. Both of us know a great deal about the Asheville area and we look forward to hosting you at Honey's Place!

What makes this property unique

Honey's Place is located in the small residential community of Woodfin, which rests along the banks of the French Broad River, minutes from Downtown Asheville. Close to several riverside parks you are in easy access to outdoor escapes that include bicycle paths, tubing and whitewater adventures.

Two miles north of the apartment is Reynolds Village, an exciting planned "main street" that welcomes visitors with local restaurants and one-of-a-kind shops.

Access to I-26 is 1 mile from the apartment which gets you quickly to Downtown, West Asheville or Weaverville. Biltmore Village is just 15 minutes away. Also close by is the picturesque Craven Gap access to the Blue Ridge Parkway (9 miles away off Beaverdam Road).
