Amazing home fantastic host

This is a beautiful property with amazing views. Plenty of space and a very responsive host. The house was very clean and had all of the essential items.We needed. There was even a pac man arcade and a foosball game that was a big hit. The host communicated very well. We will definitely stay here again.

Amazing Getaway Location

We had a perfect stay at the Overlook with plenty of room and all the comforts of home. We celebrated our wedding with a small group. The location is away from the main city area, but not a far drive into town. Great communication with the manager and he provided great recommendations for the area.

Great place for a family gathering

Our family has had family reunions for years and this is one of the best properties in which we’ve stayed. The space was very comfortable for both hanging out together and finding spaces to relax alone. We had no problem cooking together in the large kitchen and gathering at the large dining table. Its location was perfect as well. Close enough to downtown Asheville to be convenient but also a lovely country setting very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway.

9th annual Cousins Retreat

The Overlook Asheville Escape was my cousins home away from our homes for our 9th annual cousins retreat and it was phenomenal. Riding up to the house view was breathtaking and then we entered the house. Beautiful! ! ! It was 11 of us this year and we all had our own room. The 3 spaces for lounging was welcoming so everyone had room to sprawl out. One designer cousin thought all the decor/design was spectacular. This house is centrally located to a lot of attractions so it was a short drive to the Biltmore and downtown. Communication with the host were addressed quickly. I think if our cousins retreat ever brings us back to Asheville, we will definitely be staying here. Thank you Jason and others for making this years trip a winning one.

We absolutely loved our stay at this property! From the moment we arrived, everything was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described (if not better). The home was thoughtfully decorated and well-stocked with everything we needed – from kitchen essentials to even some local guidebooks.The location was perfect – close enough to everything we wanted to do, but peaceful and quiet when we wanted to relax. Whether we were enjoying coffee on the porch in the morning or winding down after a day of exploring, the space felt like a true home away from home.Our host was incredibly responsive and helpful, making check-in smooth and stress-free. You can tell they truly care about creating a great experience for their guests.We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable place to stay. Thank you for a wonderful trip!

The kitchen area was fantastic! It was FULLY stocked with all the utensils and equipment we needed. The counter area was enormous. The open floor plan allowed the 9 of us (all adults) to spread out around the counter, large dining table and family room area but still be able to hold conversations. All bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious. Jason was a great host. Very prompt communications with us before, during and after our stay. For example, We had a couple of questions when we first arrived and he answered them almost immediately. The location is also very good. It was very easy to get in and around Asheville. All of us highly recommend the Overlook as a place to stay while in Asheville.

This house was perfect for our group of four families. Enough bedrooms for each couple, plus one for all the boys and one for the girls. The location made it easy to get to Montreat, Black Mountain and into Asheville, and there was an Ingles grocery store very nearby.The kitchen was the best-stocked in terms of utensils, cookware and small appliances of anywhere else I’ve stayed. Between the game room, upstairs and downstairs living rooms, there was plenty of space for the kids to hang out separately from the adults.We had a maintenance issue come up and the owners sent someone immediately to take care of it, including taking care of putting bedding that had gotten wet into the laundry.We would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful House

This is a wonderful house. It is beautiful and very comfortable. The bedrooms were perfect for our family and the beds were comfortable. We loved the large number of seats at the dining room table plus some at the island. With many houses that bed a large number of people, there are small dining room tables but not this one. We also loved the sitting area off of the kitchen. The AC was very easy to figure out how to use it, and there were multiple thermostats. Also, the down stairs bedrooms had air control in each room. It was very convenient to many Asheville attractions. The owners were very responsive. This may be the best house we have ever rented for our family vacation. The only negatives were that the mtn view wasn't great (too may tall trees), and the house is on a hill with no good place to go for a walk.

The Overlook: Asheville

House was lovely. Great open kitchen and sitting area for entertaining. Large outside deck with an excellent grill. Well accommodated and comfortable bedrooms many of which have their own bathroom which is one of the many bonuses to this house. 15-20 minute drive to most of the sites in Asheville. Our stay was abbreviated by the devastating storm in the area but we look forward to the opportunity to return this beautiful region. We thank the gracious host of this wonderful VRBO.

Excellent weekend at The Overlook Asheville

Our family from Florida and Michigan came together for a long weekend vacation and stayed at the Overlook. This property was absolutely beautiful and was exactly as represented in the listing. The check in and out processes were very easy and our hosts were so responsive and helpful. The property was extremely clean, and well suited for large groups with lots of comfy seating both inside and out. The very large kitchen allowed us to cook together and converse with bar seating. Lovely weekend at a lovely home.

Nursing friends' reunion

Great home with ample space for our group. We chose it because of the bathrooms with each bedroom and were very pleased. Lots of room inside and out for us to enjoy happy hour, cook dinner, play games on the large table, watch TV and sit by the fire with everyone comfortable. I am very picky about cleanliness and everything was as great. Jason was immediately responsive with the one question we had. He communicated many details well in advance of check in, so we had no surprises and felt well informed. Thank you, Jason for sharing your home with us.

Family Wedding

Our family stayed at this property while attending a family wedding in Asheville,NC. Beautiful house, lots of space (there were 5 kids + an infant), bathrooms and kitchen were totally upgraded and fully equipped. I had to call the owner with a question and he replied right away.
