Our stay here was a much needed getaway! The house is exactly how it's described- newly renovated. Sometimes people say those words and really mean new paint and a floor mat. Not this time. I believe everything I used or touched was brand new! From the furniture, to the appliances, to the newly varnished floor and porch swing. No super old dusty "antiques." Paige was a wonderful host, and very attentive to our needs while we enjoyed our Christmas Vacation. I had her cell number and received very prompt feedback to any questions we had. Also, the location was perfect! We didn't have to drive down a long curvy mountain, while getting car sick, to get anywhere. It was really quiet, and yet less than 20 min. from so many things we wanted to do in Asheville and the surrounding area. We hiked to waterfalls, went skiing (about an hr. away), checked out local downtown places for breakfast, and visited nearby parks. Our family of 7 was a bit cramped, b/c of the space inside, but still everyone had a place to sleep. Paige even provided a pack-n-play for the baby. Great coffee maker, dishwasher, and large washer and dryer! Overall, we had a wonderful time!
