I loved this place. It was quiet, secluded, and very clean. It had every basic necessity I could think of. The host was friendly and easily reached. The hot tub was a wonderful addition to our trip. My son also loved meeting a delightful puppy, and both my children greatly enjoyed seeing the horses and other animals. I hope to return! This place is a piece of heaven.

Everything was super clean neat the kitchen had everything you could possibly need though we didn't really use the kitchen. Plenty of towels and there were even towels specifically for the hot tub. It was nice to sit under the stars and listen to Nature while soaking in the hot tub. Super close to restaurants, shopping, hwy and groceries.

This was a fantastic place to stay! It was clean, comfortable, well supplied, the host was just sweet! After long days walking through the Biltmore Mansion - dropping into the hot tub for body relief was wonderful. The peace we felt filling this place was totally balm to the soul. We loved seeing the horses and enjoying quiet walks around the property. I give this the highest recommendation!

The house was very charming, the scenery was excellent, and it has everything you will need for a stay. Expect some owner visits to make sure you have everything you need. They have some beautiful animals and a wonderful place, they want to make sure the tenants have everything. We accidentally left clothes in the dryer and the owner shipped them to us. We will definitely be back and be sure to not leave anything. This is a great place to be in this world.

Enjoyed our stay

My wife and I stayed at the Horse Farm Cottage for three weeks so we became very familiar with the house, the grounds and the owner. In summary, we were VERY PLEASED and would stay here again with no hesitation.The owner has devoted a lot of time to the comfort of the guests as the beds were very comfortable, with many pillow choices, plenty of soft towels, books and local information brochures. The kitchen was well stocked; not once did we say, “they don’t have one of these kitchen items.” The location is very quiet at night ensuring a good sleep.We enjoyed looking out the kitchen and dining room windows throughout the day and seeing the numerous horses grazing and moving around the pasture or an occasional deer eating along the wood line in the late evening. We spent a lot of time on the front covered porch, the side screen covered porch or the open sitting area behind that porch where the hot tub is located. It’s a 10 minute ride to two different Ingles, the Western North Carolina Botanical Gardens, many stores and the movie theater. Asheville, Brevard and Hendersonville are easily accessible as we visited each location several times. For us, location was excellentWe were very pleased with the accommodations and would easily recommend this guest house to our friends. Terri – Thank you for providing us such an enjoyable home during our stay. We enjoyed it !
