Other Details to Note

Being we are in a mountain forest setting you can expect to see wildlife like black bears, deers, jack rabbits, and birds. Most people have a fear of bears but they are docile and when left alone they will leave you alone. We encourage you to enjoy their beauty from afar but please Do not Feed the wildlife or approach them. If you encounter a black bear on a hike, remain still; stand your ground but slowly wave your arms and make lots of noise. Help the bear recognize you as a human. It may come closer or stand on its hind legs to get a better look or smell. A standing bear is usually curious, not threatening.

We loved our stay in Asheville at Catherine's place! It is quiet and peaceful, while still being close to groceries, restaurants, and activities. The coffee bar in the kitchen was well stocked, and we enjoyed drinking coffee on the porch each morning. The highlight of our stay for the kids was the game room- they spent the majority of our visit playing pool, darts, and Jenga. We had an issue with lights not coming on outdoors, which turned out to be a tripped circuit breaker. Catherine was quick to respond and offer some troubleshooting. We highly recommend this stay for families visiting Asheville.

Catherine was a wonderful host and the house is very special. There’s lots to do: hot tub to making smores by the fire! Catherine was also very responsive which my friends and I appreciated. We never felt as if we couldn’t communicate with Catherine. My friends and I felt at ease the whole time.

Fantastic house about 15 minutes from downtown Asheville! The house has plenty of space for a group, a good selection of things to keep you entertained, and feels very welcoming. Catherine was an amazing host! Thank you for opening your home to us!

Our group of 7 had a great stay! The game room was great for watching football while playing darts and pool, and the location was only 15 minutes from the downtown breweries. I have absolutely no complaints and would stay here again!

Great spot for our extended weekend stay. Close to civilization and Asheville's offerings, but remote and private (best of both worlds). The house instructions were super helpful for things like figuring out how to operate the gas grill (which had a direct gas line as opposed to a propane tank). Catherine is super responsive and clearly cares about providing great accommodations. Will definitely check to see if her house is available if/when we come back to Asheville!
