Great House and Location
We loved staying at the stone house. It was such a central location for all the hiking during the day and town at night. The veranda was wonderful! We spent 90% of the time we were awake there. We would highly recommend this house.

Best vacation property we've ever had!
This property was fantastic; secluded location but only 15 minutes from downtown. Having Elisabeth meet us there with info about the property and recommendations of things to do was a nice surprise. We will definitely stay here again next trip to the mountains.

Fabulous!
This property is gorgeous and very comfortable. I don't think we've ever stayed at a rental that was decorated so beautifully; there were even tasteful Christmas decorations. Everything is as described and exceeded our expectations. The porch is especially nice, and we enjoyed brunch out there. I highly recommend everything about this property and hope to return in the warm weather!

The property was clean, well maintained with a great layout and great amenities.
We rented this property for an extended girls weekend and couldn’t have been more pleased! It was clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. The bedrooms were large and each had its own private bath. The large enclosed sunroom was bright, nicely decorated and overlooked snow covered trees. During our visit, a foot of snow fell over about 10 hours. Elisabeth plowed the drive, shoveled the steps, made a path to our car and even cleaned off the car so we didn’t have to. Top notch service and beautiful accommodations. We highly recommend!

Wonderful weekend getaway
We stayed in the Verandah property for the weekend while meeting friends in Asheville for a music concert and it was exactly what we were looking for. We didn't want to stay in a hotel and were hoping to find something a bit more off the beaten path, but close enough to Asheville and the surrounding towns. Elisabeth met us upon check-in and gave us a nice overview of the house and its history, then gave us some great recommendations for things to do in the area while we were in town. Like other reviewers have mentioned, she is very knowledgeable and friendly and the pictures of the house really do not do it justice. We had a wonderful night's sleep both nights and our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer! We did learn that she actually has a handful of different rentals available and now we are considering one of her family friendly cabins to bring the kids along for a summer vacation.

A Gem among the Fall Colors
What a perfect place to enjoy a long weekend. Historic and beautifully renovated and decorated, this second floor unit with veranda was perfect for the four of us. We covered a lot of territory, from Biltmore to Flowering Bridge to Hickory Hill. Elisabeth was the perfect hostess. Follow her suggestions for restaurants! Some of the best food I’ve ever had!

Beautifully decorated and maintained
My daughter and I were in the area for a family reunion. We loved the veranda, catching up over a glass of wine or cup of coffee. The beds were very comfortable, and each was a queen with its own en-suite bathroom. The house was very clean. There were lots of good lights, making it nice for reading. The kitchen was small but adequate to prepare a potluck dish for the reunion. Keep in mind that while this is a self-contained unit, it covers the top floor of a very large historic building while another unit covers the bottom floor. We could occasionally hear voices from below. The owner thoughtfully provides white noise machines, so this was never a problem. Just something to be aware of.

This is a beautifully restored home with beautiful, comfortable furnishings.
This historic guest house-turned Duplex sits in a convenient location on highway 64 close enough to Hendersonville, Brevard, the Biltmore, and Asheville to serve as a convenient home base for exploring the area. That is exactly what we did. It was an easy drive to all of these places. We stayed on the move, so we really did not get to enjoy the comfortable home as much as we could have. It would be a great place to curl up with a good book and just relax!
