Successful Retreat

This property suited us perfectly on our trip to Western NC to visit the different colleges in the area. It had plenty of beds and space to relax, and was located within easy distance of the colleges we visited. Driveway is steep, but not terrible.Host/Manager was very responsive to us when we had issues, some of which were self-inflicted. Would stay here again if the need arises.

Wonderful Experience!

WOW! I have been to several VRBO properties. This one is probably my favorite! The neighborhood was quiet; you could smell how clean the bedsheets and rooms were; the host was very responsive to any questions I had; the check in and check out process was so easy and convenient; and the place was perfect for our crew! The ladies who came with me kept commenting on how cute and lovely this place was. We all agreed we would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Perfect spot for our Girls Trip!

This property was great for our girls trip - lots of lounging space (that couch is as AMAZING as it looks); plenty of beds, well appointed kitchen. The beds were incredibly comfy. The host was responsive when needed, and made it an easy check-in and check-out process. Only ten minutes from downtown Asheville. We'd absolutely book this spot again!

Great getaway

A group of ladies from our church stayed 1 night while we attended a christian concert in Ashville. It was perfect for what we needed. The house was clean and comfortable. The couch in the living room was huge and probably my favorite thing. The neighborhood was quite and as a group of all women, we felt safe. The driveway was a little tight, however we were in the church van. Great stsy overall.

Spot on!

Although our circumstances for visiting Asheville were not the best (the funeral of a friend), we found comfort at Cheryl's Blackstone Retreat. We found the house to be exactly as described in the listing. The house was adorably furnished, extremely well-kept, and spacious enough for 7 adults. We were only a short Uber drive away from downtown Asheville (around 10 minutes), so we were able to go into town for dinner and to hit a few of the local breweries. Thank you for a great stay- We look forward to visiting again soon.

Wonderful Stay

The home was clean and as pictured. It was perfect for the 8 of us for our one night stay in Asheville as we made our way north for Thanksgiving. Wish we could have stayed longer and I will def save this home as a stop in Asheville. The location is perfect if you don't want all the hustle and bustle yet short drive to Asheville. There were plenty of towels, coffee, kitchen items and we loved the games. The beds were comfy and the water pressure was perfect. The driveway was a bit steep for my knee but there is a level spot beside the home which I used, we had two vehicles. Thank you for making your lovely home available to guests.

Convenient location. Comfortable amenities.

We enjoyed our stay. Close to restaurants & the Blue Ridge Parkway. We had plenty of room for the 9 of us. Comfortable sleeping in three separate rooms. And our host was very responsive in helping us with unfamiliar technology. We recommend this location!
