Amazing place to stay

Me and 3 friends came to Asheville with our dog for a climbing trip! We loved staying at this property. There’s a lot of privacy with good views and the house was extremely comfortable. Our hosts were extremely attentive. The only issue we had was the address brought us and the Ubers we ordered to the neighbors house but the hosts provided us with detailed directions to easily correct our mistake. Would love to stay here again in the future.

Third time and still loving it!!1

This is our third stay and we'll be back again. It's our favorite home away from home in the mountains. Jef and his wife think of everything you could ever need. The house is always immaculate and we love sitting on the porch and enjoying the view and the quiet. 10 minutes into Weaverville and 20 minutes into Asheville make it the perfect spot.

Peaceful- will be back!!

We had such a relaxing stay. The pictures do not do the space or view justice. Our pups had so much fun running in the vast yard. The porch was so spacious and relaxing. We had to do some remote work and the internet worked beautifully. Jef and Karen were kind and thoughtful hosts. It felt like staying with family!

Yellow Country Cottage

Good afternoon Jeff & Karen! We throughly enjoyed our recent stay (3/16-3/21) in your very cozy country cottage in Alexander,NC. Thnx for allowing us to stay there. We were quite content to stay put & relax but we did venture out & visited the birthplace of Zebulon Vance (no relation to our current VP)Who became a NC Gov & Senator. & we also experienced the delicious delights @ Well Bred Bakery in Weaverville! Yummy! The weather varied to about 30 deg overnight & 50-75deg for daytime. The cottage was well stocked w/kitchen utensils (alittle more counter space for meal prep would be helpful; maybe a portable island, just a thot)Our dog Shadow (an 8yo golden) loved running around in the fenced in yard & gave us peace of mind that she was safe. We had an enjoyable time!

Amazing Stay as Always

This is our third or fourth time staying and as always it was amazing! Close enough to get to anything you need, amazing views, and super clean! The yard and porch are large and wonderful especially when we bring the dogs. They love sitting on the porch and running in the fully fenced yard.

Excellent getaway

This place is perfect if you’re trying to get away from the city, but only a short drive to a city. It’s pretty secluded and it has an awesome yard for pups. I loved my stay here and I’ll definitely stay again when I’m back in Asheville.

Grandparent/Grandchild weekend

We take our grandchildren to the mountains every year for a weekend getaway. This year we were super lucky to come across this listing. The house was the perfect size for our 2 adults and 3 grandchildren and dogs. The location was private and quiet and the fenced yard made for great playtime with the kids and dogs. My husband and i are already planning another trip, just for us.
