This property worked out beautifully for 2 couples--each had a private bedroom and bath. We were there for a week, and cooked in every night Everything we needed was there for us! We loved sitting on the porch with our morning coffee and with our wine in the evening.
The first day we had one white squirrel visit. Toward the end of our trip, another white squirrel joined the first and on the last day, a third white squirrel was there! It was so much fun to watch them play with the other squirrels and the one chipmunk!
The location is so convenient. About a block to the Farmer's Market, and only a few short blocks to town.
We loved everything about this home and Jan was so easy to work with. We'll definitely be back when we visit Brevard again!

We loved our stay at Downtown Brevard. Beautiful property with a large yard and driveway parking. We had several meals at the house and the kitchen was well equipped. We also walked to downtown for a few meals too, which was really convenient and a great way to get to know Brevard. We bought local peaches at the Saturday Farmer's Market which is practically across the street. Also, the location is just a great jumping off point for hiking to waterfalls and enjoying all that Brevard has to offer. Plenty of space for our family of four to relax. Owner provided clear instructions and was easy to communicate with. So happy we had this warm and inviting home to stay at our vacation!

We just stayed in Brevard for a long Father’s Day weekend. The house was exactly what we wanted. Everything was clean and well taken care of. The back yard was full of fireflies in the evening and they put on a show. Even saw a white squirrel. Very walkable to downtown with all the shops and restaurants. Jan was super with the ease of check in and out. Will definitely stay here again.

The house was exactly as advertised and was perfect for a 8 day stay in beautiful Brevard. The house was extremely clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the screened patio each morning and evening watching the squirrels, birds and rabbits. The location was ideal to walking to dinner (one block off Main). The neighborhood was clean and quiet. We have stayed in several VRBOs in Brevard over the years and this is our favorite. Jan was a wonderful host and very attentive. It was like talking with an old friend. We’re looking forward to coming back!

This was a nice property near downtown. Walked to dinner and shops - it was a good stay.

It was a great place. Everything was clean, and up to date. It had everything I needed in the kitchen to cook, and a nice big back yard, bigger than the photos suggest. I saw one of Brevard's famous white squirrels there!
The one small hiccup we had was handled quickly and professionally by the owner.
The one puzzling thing, is that this was advertised as a 3 bedroom, but the third bedroom was locked when we arrived. A sign said that it was available for an additional charge. We only needed one bedroom, so it was no problem, but if you go here with a larger group, ask if the third bedroom will be locked or not.
We were never told ahead of time that the third bedroom would be locked, so I felt like this was a bait and switch.
Also, although there were two full bathrooms, they were both inside the door of two different bedrooms. In other words, two bedrooms were suites with their own bathrooms, but there were no other bathrooms in the house. It wasn't a problem for me, but it would be weird if we had a larger group, and someone was using that third bedroom.

Jan was so nice and communicated with us well! She filled up the bird feeder prior to our stay and we were able to see 2 white squirrels!! It was little touches like this that made our trip perfect! There was plenty of room for our family of 3. We were able to walk into town which was awesome to not have to fight looking for parking! Would definitely stay here again! Also, Jan was accommodating to our schedule and allowed us to check in about 3 hours early! It was such a treat!

Great location, great communication, lots of space, dated, but clean. Kitchen had everything needed. Small TV screens, Dish satellite didn’t offer good choice channel options.
Beautiful backyard. Manager even left us home grown tomatoes from her garden!

My family just had a wonderful stay in this house. The house had everything we needed and the location is excellent. We had some rainy days which made me really appreciate having a comfortable, cozy house that was close to everything when the rain stopped. I would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at Jan's house since it was walkable to downtown Brevard. That was important to me as I was a vendor at the White Squirrel Festival. The house was also across from a wooded area where I spotted my first and only white squirrel!
The house is very spacious which we enjoyed. No problems with anything at all. We recommend staying here!

The house was immaculate, the owner has taken a lot of steps to make guests comfortable. From amenities provided to the comfortable furnishings. She also gave us tips to attract the well known “Brevard White Squirrels “ to the back yard. Also beautiful birds were abundant. We’ll be back.

I would like to keep this place a secret! My wife and I stayed here and its so close to downtown we could walk everywhere and its centrally located in some of the best hikes and waterfalls in the area. The owners were very attentive and responsive. It was immaculately clean. The only thing I could add is "shhhhhh - don't tell anyone, I want it to be my spot!"

Wonderful house with excellent location!
What a gem only a short walk to downtown and a short drive to great hiking. Communication was excellent throughout and if anything the pictures do not do the house justice. Only wish that we had been able to stay longer! Will definitely visit again.

Cozy Home
This was my second stay at Jan Lees vrbo. This home is in an excellent location, and incredibly clean. The house is comfortable and has everything you need for a visit to Brevard. Jan is always quick to answer any questions, and on hand if there is an emergency (locked myself out :( ). Wonderful stay as usual.

Nice Stay!
Great location, plenty of space, and a screened-in porch too. Not too far a drive to lovely hikes to waterfalls. There's a cool toy store downtown our kids loved and Dolly's ice cream by Pisgah is wonderful.

Relaxing, quiet, and convenient!
My husband, our friends, and I loved this property and our host, Jan. Pleasantly surprised by the spacious house, and yard, in a lovely quaint neighborhood so close to downtown Brevard, and the blue ridge mountains. Saturday market was fun and just steps away from house at corner church parking lot. Jan is wonderful, attentive and a great communicator. House was clean, comfortable, spacious, and had everything needed. Especially enjoyed screened porch overlooking big private yard with large trees. When not out hiking, a walk through the neighborhood was a treat as well. Will definitely come back! Thanks again Jan!! Pam & Rick

What a fantastic gem of a find! This lovely home was perfect for our stay. Located half a block off of main street we could walk to all the restaurants and shopping. Pisgah National Forest was a 10 minute. The house is beautifully furnished and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch and deck and spotted a white squirrel and deer. The owner Jan was a great communicator. We loved our stay and hated to leave. As soon as we returned home we booked another stay for the fall. Thank you Jan for everything.

Wonderful Stay
Jan is a fantastic host, communication was excellent, check in was a breeze.
The location is wonderful. Quiet neighborhood yet great walking distance to downtown. Saturday farmers market is just a few steps out the door!
The home was one of the cleanest VRBO's I've ever stayed at. Furniture is clean and new, comfortable beds. Great backyard to sit and watch the birds and bunnies with a cup of coffee.
Jan Lee went above and beyond to welcome us, even checking in after a very long drive back to New York.
Looking forward to returning, will definitely rent this home again.

Charming home. Great location. Needs some TLC.
This home is truly special. Spacious layout, yet feels cozy. Both bedrooms are large and have private bathrooms. We enjoyed the deck and the pretty backyard. Location is wonderful. Just a short walk to downtown Brevard. Home does need some TLC--fresh paint, a deep cleaning (including the furniture), and operational blinds throughout. The two chairs in the den should be replaced. The cushions are shot. With these improvements, we would absolutely rate the house 5 stars.

Great location to Downtown Brevard
Great house for our family to get in and out of Brevard. Close to everything you want to do. We enjoyed the short walk to shops and to get coffee and pastries at the bakery.

Perfect Home Away
Jan's house was a wonderful, cozy place for our family to spend Thanksgiving in Brevard. It was clean and comfortable.. The kitchen had everything we needed to eat in. We used pretty much every space in the house, inside and out! We even watched the antics of some white squirrels!
We stay in Brevard several time each year, and appreciate having our home away so close to downtown. The farmer's market is just a block away (Saturdays), so we were able to enjoy some local eggs, meats, and baked goodies.
Jan reached out to me about a week before our check-in, a gesture I appreciate. She was a great communicator and very responsive.
WiFi can be a problem in the mountains, but in Jan's house the WiFi was great the whole time. She offers a good line up of channels on cable TV, but streaming movies requires the use of the guest's own device.
I would love to stay at Jan's house again the next time we are in Brevard. It has everything a wanderer could want.

Great Brevard in-town location
We had a wonderful two weeks at this house. It was an easy two block walk to downtown Brevard and to two parks if you have children. The owner, Jan, was very helpful and easy to work with. The house has great living areas and the kitchen is expansive and well stocked with good cooking utensils. We enjoyed the screened porch and deck overlooking the large back yard. We will definitely stay here again.

Great place in town
The location was convenient for walking to town for shopping and restaurants. It is also great for a short drive to hiking and biking at Pisgah and DuPont state forest. The house was fantastic with plenty of space to relax with multiple living spaces to read or watch TV. We stayed in and cooked on one of the rainy days and the kitchen was well stocked with all we needed to make a great meal. I also liked the detail of a small nook with a tea pot and herbal tea for relaxing before bed. We truly enjoyed staying this house!
