Central Location

The property was as described and the host was very welcoming, including offering fresh picked blueberries from the garden. This is a central location for all of the activities that I was interested in - golf, hiking, food, other activities (right next to Municipal golf course).

Backyard Sanctuary

Marta's place was such a cool, retro, mid-century space! Cool and comfy with all the things needed to enjoy the stay. Her backyard was a bird watcher's dream! Marta was warm and friendly and went out of her way allow me privacy in her space. Would absolutely recommend this place...unless you're super tall - it is a basement apartment with low-ish ceilings.

Not for everyone but perfect for some

If you love retro and are not too picky about a deep clean and don’t mind the owner being above you, this could be a good choice, especially for the price. It’s a basement apartment that has all the original furnishings from the 60’s, I think the appliances as well! So, kind of cute, but due to the age, there’s ground-in grime that could benefit from a deep clean—cabinets, oven, refrigerator, baseboards, etc. If you’re sensitive to odors, then this probably not the place for you as it is kind of musty plus you get cooking odors from upstairs. On the plus side, the bed was very comfortable, and it was very quiet at night, so pretty good sleeping. The windows open, which is great if you like fresh air at night. I loved that. The a/c and heat are completely controlled by the owner upstairs, so you have to ask if you want adjustments. One of the streets coming to the house is extremely narrow, and I almost had a heart attack when a big truck almost took my side view mirror off. Inches to spare. If you have a smaller vehicle you can comfortably park next to the owner’s carport, but it’s a little difficult with a larger vehicle. The owner was friendly, and the written instructions were clear. You just have to be comfortable with not having 100% privacy and being worried about bothering her. I certainly do not want to dissuade anyone from renting here, but you do have to be able to tolerate all the things I mentioned.

About the host

Hosted by Marta Martin

Hi, I'm from Habana, Cuba. I have been in the United States since 1968. I just retired after almost 20 years teaching English as a Second Language first in Florida and then in Asheville. I love hiking in the woods and being in nature. I take care of my body, love cooking vegetarian dishes and dehydrating vegetables from my garden. I belong to a conscious dancing community here in Asheville and dance at several times a week
I purchased this home in 2010 from its original owner.
