About this house rental

This special place is close to everything, making it easy to plan your visit. Hot tub for 8!

The historic Bridle Path Inn (one of Asheville's original 13 Bed and Breakfasts) was recently lovingly renovated, and is now available for your short-term stay! Incorporating high-end finishes and all the modern amenities you would expect while still keeping the original charm intact - including the original Battery Park Hotel glass doors to the veranda, enormous stone stacked wood burning fireplace and arched wood casings. The ambiance is luxurious yet welcoming, especially for large groups or families.

There are 4 bedrooms, all with King size beds and en-suite bathrooms (2 walk-in showers and 2 shower/tub combos), flanking a grand open living room with plenty of space to cozy up to the 19th century wood burning fireplace to enjoy coffee, cocktails or game nights. Large dining table that seats 10 to enjoy meals and make memories, right off the newly expanded kitchen (equipped with all new appliances including 36" range) with soaring floor to ceiling windows to enjoy views of downtown, and the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.

The expansive wrap-around porch invites you to take in the city lights of downtown, the mountains and the natural beauty all around you. Located in a quiet neighborhood with a short hike to access miles of trails along Horizon Hill and only 1.5 miles to downtown Asheville (not to mention, 1.5 miles from the Grove Park Inn and only 2.5 miles to the Biltmore Estate). Come enjoy this historical home while taking advantage of the rare proximity to Asheville and all it has to offer!

The space is the entire upper floor of the building. There are two units below the Airbnb unit. The the tenants are very nice, and are long-term. There are NO shared living spaces, and Airbnb tenants have access to their own washer/dryer.

Key pad access is given to guests with check-in instructions.

Tucked into the North Asheville mountainside just above UNCA in an established neighborhood just 5 minutes from downtown. Closest mountain to town!

Plenty of parking! Uber is always the best bet if you are partaking in our incredible brewery scene : )
Very bike-able into town or the River Arts District (RAD)

There are 4 king beds, 4 baths, and a fold out queen sofa. We do have a queen blow up mattress as well should you need it. Thanks!

We had a good stay in Asheville at the Bridle Path Inn. Enjoyed the location and space the house offered, also all bathroom are updated which was really nice. Pros include location, historic factor, character of the house and space. Cons include no counter space in bathrooms, lacking some basic items and the closets used as storage for their house things instead of leaving room for guests to hang their clothes and things. Manager was responsive for the needs we had and helped. While it did feel older, if you want a unique spot in Asheville with character and history, not just a cookie cutter rental, this is your place!

We were 7 adults and 2 teenagers, with ages ranging from 16-86 (!) but also had local family members join at the house for dinners and catching up on the terrace. Had a great time. House was clean and comfortable. Did some hiking in the trails behind. Close to town and Biltmore estate.

The location and overall house were great and it was wonderful to be able to stay with a large group of friends. That being said, when we arrived there was trash strewn all over the side of the house in front of the kitchen window, obviously from a bear or raccoon (we saw both). This can happen and we understood. We contacted the manager via the app who said he would clean it up but it wasn't done until the next day. Whenever we looked out the kitchen door/window, we saw nasty trash (used diapers, chicken wings, partial pieces of pizza, etc) and we couldn't use the hot tub. Plus, raccoons frequented the feast. What we couldn't understand is that this happened 2 more times - nothing was done to secure the trash and the raccoons became regulars so we couldn't use the hot tub and had to eat a certain way in the kitchen so as to avoid the trash. I tried to call the manager but the advertised phone number didn't work. We have been assured of a partial refund for the inconvenience, which is nice, although we haven't received it yet. Hopefully they can rectify this issue for future visitors for an otherwise great place.

Comfortable, roomy property for 8 adults. Very quiet despite only being a few minutes from downtown. Well equipped and outfitted. Maintenance could be better.

We stayed here for a girls trip to Asheville and it was a great space for a big group! The house is spacious and charming and very comfortable for our group of 8. A few drawbacks were that some of the rooms do not have closets and the bathroom sinks are all very small. It is a little tricky to find down a dirt road and is located about 10 minutes from downtown Asheville. Overall a great stay!

Bridle Path Inn was the perfect set up for our family trip…roomy, lots of seating and gathering space, large kitchen. We loved the decor and character of the space.

Incredible place to stay for my group of ten guests (including friends and family)--with its huge wide open central space it truly has a "wow" factor that I haven't seen at any other property. Beautiful updated furnishings alongside antiques in space with historic character. The large wraparound deck had amazing mountain views too! We were there to celebrate my sister's upcoming marriage and she was speechless at what an incredible space it was. My only comment is that the listing advertises a "fold out queen sofa," and as best as we can tell this has been replaced by one that only folds into a twin bed. We consulted with the owner's assistant and that is the conclusion we reached. There are more air mattresses than advertised, but if there is no longer a fold-out queen sofa then that part of the listing should be updated.
