Comfy Asheville Cottage with Private Fenced Yard
Smithson's place was very clean and had all the amenities you could hope for. fully stocked with linens, cleaning supplies, cooking and dining supplies, the whole nine yards. The yard was great for our dogs, fenced in, private and maintained. The place was full of modern amenities, including the bathroom and kitchen which can make or break a stay for me. Smithson promptly responded to every message I sent and was proactive about check in details, suggestions for hiking, and other good to knows for the stay. I'll definitely be back!

*New*Spacious 3BR House|10 min to DT and Biltmore
This Airbnb stay exceeded all expectations — truly the Ritz-Carlton of home rentals! The home was absolutely stunning, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed with every comfort in mind. The location was perfect — tucked in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood yet just minutes away from all the local attractions. The fenced-in backyard was a dream for our pup, Maizy — she had the time of her life exploring safely! What truly set this stay apart, though, was the host’s exceptional hospitality. Attentive, responsive, and genuinely kind, they made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Every detail, from the cozy interior touches to the seamless check-in, reflected care and excellence. We’ve stayed at many Airbnbs, but this one stands out as one of the best. We can’t wait to return!

Serenity Views Comfort-Sunsets, Big Kitchen, Dogs.
Very nice home and a friend host. Would definitely book this house again

Rustic Chic Open Floor Plan Home in Black Mountain
Lovely home in the Village of Cheshire! Jake is a wonderful host and the house is even better than the pictures. Beautiful neighborhood with walking trails and playground for kids. Enjoyed being able to bring our dog along and the convenience of the fenced backyard. Hope to return one day :)

Rustic Royce Lodge - DOG FRIENDLY / FENCED YARD
Alexandra gave wonderful directions to the house. We felt right at home! Beautiful location, very clean, and more than enough space for two adults and two dogs. I read a review that there is a house very close by which isn’t represented in the photos. This is true, however, because there is a large privacy fence separating the properties. We never saw or heard the neighbor the entire week we stayed. It was a lovely vacation, thank you!

Mountain Oasis / Close To Town
Kyle's place is spacious and comfortable and surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Very convenient access to Black Mountain. We were in town for Hellbender 100 - I highly recommend this listing for runners. This listing is a perfect base for crew and a short drive to the start/finish of the race.

Rondette home w/ King bed, fire pit, 3 mi to DT
This place is amazing! We've visited Asheville before and in the past in order to find a nice comfortable secluded location have typically had to stay 15-20 minutes from downtown. This place is 5-7 min from town but offers total privacy. It is in excellent condition (feels brand new) with everything you could need. Everything was very comfortable and all the details are there- the bathrooms were spotless, the bedding was super comfy. Probably the best Airbnb I have stayed in our travels. Dont miss out on this one for your next trip to Asheville!

Private artistic home 15 min to downtown or UNCA
This was our third time working with Calile on a stay in Asheville. We are locals, but this was a perfect place for our parents and visiting relatives to stay while they were in town for graduation. The home was so welcoming and the location was perfect. Thanks for your hospitality!

Historic Glenna Cabin in the Florence Preserve
We stayed at the Glenna for a mini honeymoon with two pups and loved it. It's in a secluded area with a few neighbors, which is exactly what we wanted. An short and easy drive to Asheville, but we found we enjoyed visiting the Arden/Fletcher area as well for food and hikes. The drive up to the cabin is beautiful with plenty of twisty curves as you would expect in the mountains, but a very enjoyable drive. (As of May 2025 the directions may mislead you due to a road closure, you'll go through it just a bit to turn in front of a very beautiful white church with a creek in front of it.) We spent most nights outside with a fire by the creek making smores or enjoying the quiet nature. Our dogs loved sniffing about everywhere they could find, especially our nightly walks around the property. We had a power outage and Larry was nice enough to stop by and drop some lights for us and Courtney left us some beautiful Asheville mugs. A wonderful cabin and area, we would definitely visit again!

Mountain Chalet close to Biltmore
Great house and great hosts. Thanks.

Bent Creek Beauty
Our mission team was in the area working with Hammer and Heart. We stayed at this house based on location, number it could sleep and the neighborhood. Checkin was extremely easy, house was easy to find. While there, the A/C broke. Nothing that anyone could foresee. Amanda was responsive by immediately hopping into action by sending fans to try to cool the house until the HVAC person could get there to fix. Amanda stayed on top of the problem until she knew the A/C was fixed. Thanks for the hospitality of sharing your house so we could help people in the area.

*Asheville’s Misty Mountain Pet Friendly Suite*
This was our second stay we have stayed on both sides of the Airbnb and we absolutely loved them both it was peaceful and relaxing just what we needed 😊

Country Mtn. Escape - Fishing, Hiking, Bonfire!
Very Peaceful area. As we learned more about the surroundings the more comfortable we felt. The whole area has a variety of things to do & the people are welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks Amber!

*Pool*Hot Tub*GameRoom*5 Miles to Dtwn&Biltmore*
This stay showed us why we always prefer when the rental is owned by a person and not a big company, Trace was super responsive and easy to work with our entire stay. Location was fantastic and it was super easy to get to all the things in ashville we wanted to while still being in a home that was quiet and relaxing.

The Blue Door ~ entire house
This place is very comfortable. I was looking for a relaxing and quiet retreat. This was it. Even though it is next to the hosts house they gave me my space. In fact I never even saw them. The tub is amazing and the kitchen is well appointed. Top score. IF you are thinking of staying here you should.

Swim Spa~Firepit~Sleeps 18~Minutes to Asheville!
As advertised, house is clean well kept and really large. I got lost while touring the place it was so spacious
Private, pet-friendly home rentals

Views Mins to Downtown Asheville, Firepit, Hot Tub
Cabin 120 def has the best view of the mountain, especially while relaxing in the hot tub. The place was so clean and exactly as described. Loved the beds, very comfy! Stone ridge for dinner and Rowan coffee nearby are great stops! Def worth booking!!

Cozy AVL Suite Near Everything
Really lovely guest suite in a perfect location to explore Asheville and the surrounding mountains. I stayed for a month and was so pleased with the location. There's a nice little local bar and a coffee shop less than a mile away. The space was very comfy (especially the bed!) and cozy and felt like a small home away from home. Hosts were super nice people, kind and proactive. There's no TV, which was perfect for me! Good WiFi. I will definitely stay there again if/when I'm in Asheville.

AVL Bungalow - 5 mins to DT
Loved staying here ! It is close to UNCA and was perfect for graduation weekend. The house has a lot of character and we were so happy with our stay. It even has a record player and nice selection of records which we took advantage of ! Ben was a great host and let us check in early to get to an event on campus. Highly recommend!

Asheville Pet Friendly Apartment - Woods, Trails
We LOVED our stay at Elizabeth’s! We were two humans plus a dog and found the unit to be very comfortable. There were so many incredibly thoughtful touches that made our stay so lovely. It really did feel like a little home away from home — which was perfect for our little WFA (work from Asheville) adventure. The house is well stocked with everything a traveler could need. And the yard is perfect and secure for any furry travelers. The location is convenient to Asheville and in super close proximity to some great hiking in the Bent Creek forest and around the NC Arboretum. We will absolutely be looking to stay here in the future! This spot is such a gem!

Mountain Mama's Place
It was a memorable stay at Mountain Mama’s Place. So grateful for Cindi’s hospitality, she truly put a lot of Love into preparing her home for guests to make it their home away from home ❤️

Houz Zen: A Pet Friendly Private Suite
Corey and Cheryl were lovely hosts. Their airbnb had everything we (including our dog Ridge) needed! They were incredibly kind and thoughtful. The fenced in backyard is totally private and Ridge lived his best life with an abundance of tennis balls provided by Corey and Cheryl. While Corey and Cheryl live upstairs, we never heard noise and they were extremely respectful of our time whenever they saw us outside (but I always wanted to chat :) Wonderful airbnb, so cozy and Ridge is already asking to go back!

Orchard Lane Cottage-life among the apple trees
We stayed almost a whole month and truly felt at home. Loved every single thing about this little cottage on an orchard. Pat is a superstar host in my book. Always responsive and helpful in any way. We loved the location it's the perfect mix of feeling isolated but really only 5 minutes to the grocery store. Everything you need for an extended stay is right here. We'll be back!

Pisgah Paws! Secluded, pet friendly, Hot Tub
We have stayed here a few times over the years and always enjoy the serenity of being in a remote location in the mountains. Always a great experience to stay here.
