Lucerne Chalet - Treetop Mountain Views In Downtown Asheville -FP, Dog Friendly!

Lucerne Chalet is one of our more spacious downtown Asheville chalets.
* It has two bedrooms
* one and a half bathrooms
* Cozy up to the gas fireplace in the living room.​
* conveniently located just FIVE minutes to eclectic downtown Asheville, the South Slope, the River Arts District, the Blue Ridge Parkway, New Belgium Brewery, the Biltmore Estate, and much more.

Nestled in the treetops, you can gaze at the mountains from the gated porch and stroll through the quiet neighborhood with your dog.

NOTES
1. This property is 1.3 miles from the heart of downtown, but we would recommend transportation since it's not walker-friendly.
2. No grill at the house.
3. ALL mountain roads can be steep and dark at times. They may be daunting to an inexperienced mountain driver. The Lucerne Chalet is located in a quiet mountain subdivision on a circular one-lane road. Although it's a short road with street lights, it is tight, steep, and curvy. Please try to plan your arrival during the daytime if you are intimidated by mountain roads.
4. No smoking, vaping, or candles.
5. Must be at least 25 years old to reserve this property.

DOG RULES
A dog fee applies, plus all applicable taxes. Dog with prior approval. Dogs under 50 lbs. The size and breed of your dog are needed to register them. Please note that you are bringing your dog when making your reservation.

1. No puppies - Dog must be at least ONE YEAR OLD
2. No attack or aggressive breeds of dogs are allowed
3. Must have all shots and flea treatments that are up to date
4. Must always be on a leash and under the control of the owner
5. Must NOT sleep on beds, couches, or chairs
6. You must clean up after your dog and do not flush poop down the toilet
7. A dog fee will be charged for the extra cleaning required
8. Sorry, no cats

We love dogs, and we are happy to host your well-behaved dog.

We are available during your stay to help out if needed because you are not just booking a home to stay in, but a southern mountain hospitality experience.

Thank you for considering staying with us!

Great place! The proximity to downtown is hard to beat, and yet you still get a nature/forest feel while on the property. The home itself is a little tricky to find but otherwise we had an excellent experience. Clean and comfortable and would stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lucerne Chalet. The location was perfect - peaceful and quiet with a gorgeous view of the sunrise through the treetops, yet just a quick 5 min drive or 20 min walk into town. The house was fully furnished and very clean. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch. We brought our 13 yo lab, and it was great to be able to take him out for walks in the area. Darlene gave great check-in instructions and was easily accessible for occasional questions. We would stay again!

The location and the house were perfect. Beds are super comfortable and we appreciated the good dishes, pots & pans, and the supply of TP and paper towels to get us started. We look forward to booking here next year for our annual Asheville trip. Also, the advice of arriving in the daytime to navigate the long, narrow, winding driveway is not to be taken lightly! ;)
