We had a wonderful stay, the house is relatively secluded and we thoroughly enjoyed the river and hot tub (especially my kids). The home had plenty of room and high-end finishes. It's also close to anything you need, grocery store etc., but also a great location to venture into Asheville or explore the outdoors.

Property perfectly situated in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed strolling through the backyard to the river. Rain prevented us making a pit fire and barbecue outside, but kitchen had everything we needed to grill indoors, and there was ample play space in the basement for ping pong and table soccer
