Asheville - Bittersweet

We had four couples here for an extended weekend. The property was fantastic. Easily the best VRBO property we've utilized. It was clean, modern, roomy, etc.... We didn't get to enjoy some of the beautiful interior common areas because the outside areas were so perfect for our group. If our group does Asheville again we will definitely be headed to Bittersweet.

We traveled here with our toddler and another family with a toddler and infant. The adults and kids all enjoyed themselves. The house is charming, very clean and has an extraordinary outdoor space where the adults enjoyed relaxing and the kids had a great time exploring.
