Best VRBO in Asheville!!
Gatsby Cottage is the place to stay if you plan to travel to Asheville. It’s immaculate, like brand new with all the comforts of home. Claire and Austin did not miss a trick. The sunsets are magnet in December and it’s remote enough that you feel you’re in a mountain hideaway yet close enough to downtown you can be there in 10 minutes. Don’t miss this gem of a property-it’ll make your stay very special indeed!😎

Perfect Getaway
This property is beautiful and well appointed. Austin and Claire have taken care to acknowledge all the details. My husband and I came for a quick weekend getaway to disconnect and this was perfect spot. The porch and firepit were perfect places to hang and we felt no pressure to be busy, although a plethora of restaurants and activities are just a short drive away. I can’t say enough positive about this sweet little property. We’re excited to come back.

MEET YOUR HOSTS:
Greetings!
We are NC residents and outdoor enthusiasts. We love hiking, backcountry backpacking "leave no trace" camping, snow boarding/skiing. We enjoy live music, all genres from classical to blues, cooking/entertaining, travel, volunteering in the community and most of all spending time with friends and family. Austin is in the IT field and a builder. Claire is the founder of The Asheville Co., an e-boutique that features Asheville inspired apparel, home and gift, and children's collections. Claire is a native to Asheville and is happy to call this city home. We were married here in Asheville at the Basilica of St. Lawrence and enjoyed hosting guests at the Biltmore Estate and the Grove Park Inn (formerly the County Club of Asheville). We encourage you to visit all these places while in town if you have time as they are local highlights. We encourage you to reach out with any questions, planning needs. We look forward to hosting you at the Gatsby Cottage. Cheers!
