Great Family Place
This house was amazing and awesome. The children had the best time watching movies in the theatre room. They enjoyed the treehouse and the zip line. The host left a welcome gift which was wonderful. The layout of the house was great for our gathering with plenty of room for everyone. Definitely, a house we will rent again. The host was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. It was a wonderful weekend and the house allowed us to make a sweet memory for everyone.

Family Spring break getaway
I would like to start off by saying we really appreciated the welcome gift when we arrived at the house. My husband and I enjoyed the wine and the kids loved the snacks. As for our stay, the house was very clean and fully equipped with everything you would need in the kitchen. The decore was nice and the beds were really comfortable. The backyard was a huge hit for the kids with the fort, tree swing and especially the zipline. Just about every night we used the movie theater and we were able to get in a few nights of roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. We also loved how convenient it was to gas stations, grocery stores, restaurants and the Biltmore Estate. There is also a handbook that provides you with all the information you need on the house and surrounding area. The only incident we had was the broken fridge we discovered on our first night after getting groceries. The host was very responsive and was able to get someone out to the house fairly quickly. Unfortunately it was determined the fridge needed to be replaced. However, they were able to get a new fridge the very next morning. Any food we loss they took care of it. Overall I highly recommend the Maplewood Escape property and would definitely come back.

Amazing experience for my bachelorette party!
We had such a great stay at this beautiful property! Our group of 9 had so much space and really enjoyed all the amenities. We did not have a coffee pot at the home and they had one delivered for us in under an hour! We all had late flights so the host graciously allowed for a late check out. Already looking forward to coming back!

Beautiful property!
Our entire family was in town for our daughter's wedding. The house was perfect for us. There were enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all of us (16 + 2 infants) and plenty of room for the kids to play both inside and out. We never felt crowded at all. There was a very nice welcome package of wine, crackers, popcorn and a delicious cheese and meat box. My family has been renting VRBO houses for over 10 years and this is the first time we have ever been welcomed with such a gift. After a long day of travel it was most welcome. Although the weather is beyond everyone's control -- it was perfect too. Thank you so much!!!

Perfect!
What a perfect Thanksgiving stay! Plenty of room for our families! We stayed four nights, hosting both sides of our family, so being able to wash sheets between visits was super helpful. Great size kitchen. The best part was all the toys: the pool table, movie room and hot tub were awesome, but the outdoor extras were the icing on top: a zip line?! Really?! Even Nana gave the zipline a go! We had s’mores by the fire pit almost every night! So much room!! Our (adult) sons wanted to stay in the tree house! And the rental hosts went the extra mile with the charcuterie, popcorn and wines!! Wow!!! This trip was worth every penny!

We were able to take advantage of all that the house had to offer. Kitchen was well outfitted with everything we needed. The host provided goodies upon our arrival- very generous. Hangers in closets would be a great addition as nowhere to put clothes except to keep in suitcases. Enjoyed the hot tub.

Perfect for us!
The house was perfect for our group of 10 people. There was an awesome theater room where we ended our nights with a movie some nights and other times we made a fire in the fire pit in the yard! The house was clean upon checkin and we were allowed early check in. They were so sweet!! We were left a charcuterie board that was huge! 2 bottles of wine and some Asheville popcorn !! It was awesome! Our only 4 star part was that it was too far for an Uber to pick us up. Luckily there is an app called AVL ride we were able to schedule each day . We needed a big bus so it was $150 one way. Getting UBers back was easy. This was our annual brewery tour so we needed a driver. We would definitely stay again next year though. So we will see! Beautiful house, plenty of bedrooms.

What a great house! Room for everyone (15 of us!) Grandparents, parents and siblings of the groom stayed for a weekend wedding. There were things to do at the house In between events, and bathrooms and bedrooms for everyone to prep for the big day. The house was a quick drive (20 minutes) from everything- downtown, airport, wedding venue etc. We would definitely they recommend to any large group.

Could not have asked for a more spectacular house!
We chose this property primarily for the location….2 miles from the wedding venue where our second oldest son was getting married! Little did we know it was not just the proximity of this beautiful home to the wedding venue that caught our eye, but it was actually somewhere that provided the calm and relaxation we needed before and after the wedding. Weddings are amazing, but with them comes a little bit of stress! This home was immaculate in its cleanliness, plenty of space for everyone, and convenient to even the rehearsal venue which was in downtown Asheville. I would absolutely recommend this home when staying in Asheville!!
