Great place and great location

We come to Asheville every year for a mountain biking trip. We’ve been doing the trip for about 10 years. This house is our favorite mainly because of the location. You can walk all of West Asheville and it’s super conveniently located next to two of our favorite breakfast places and a new favorite dinner spot. The house is very unique and I would highly recommend.

Beautiful home in a great location

The house is spotless and very comfortable. I wish the yard was completely fence in at least one area for our dog to run off leash but the yard was large and lovingly maintained. The location is great as you can walk anywhere in west Asheville. Thanks so much for the wonderful stay, Mitch.

The Jarrett House

Want to feel like you stepped back in time, but stay in an updated and modern home? This is it. We really enjoyed the charm of the Jarrett House - listed on the National Register of Historic Places! Plenty of room to spread out, great kitchen with very modern appliances - all around a great stay!!

House was perfect for us 6 adults and 2 couples and 2 singles. Would have preferred if one of the rooms had an option for two single beds. Or a pullout couch in the small living room would have been perfect for our combination of adults.

Birthday Celebration in Asheville

We flew our family in from out of town for a long weekend birthday celebration for my wife with our son, daughter, and son-in-law. The house was beautiful and had so much character. It met our needs perfectly and its charm enhanced our experience in Asheville. Mitch was very easy to work with and wanted to make sure we had a wonderful time. If in Asheville, again, we will definitely stay here again.

A beautiful historic home!

This house was definitely a 5*!! This was a girls weekend in Asheville. We toured Biltmore and downtown Asheville. The rest of the time was spent at this wonderful house. We cooked in the chefs kitchen. It has everything we needed to prepare our meals. The beds were very comfortable! There was plenty of room for the 6 of us. The owner was very easy to get a hold of. We will definitely stay at this property again if we’re in the area.

Comfy, elegant feeling stay in Asheville

Our family had a lovely time at this property. Walking to restaurants was easy and you are close enough to basically everything else to drive to visit or pick up from. Grocery store is steps away. Recommend the pastries at the OWL bakery about a mile away... easy drive. The house itself was clean and cozy and felt elegant with all the decorative touches. Communication with owner was easy! Thank you so much!

Wonderful stay walkable to all of West AVL

Mitch’s place was a perfect landing spot for our group of three couples. We really enjoyed learning about the house’s history, and it was clearly restored with care. The house was spotless and well-appointed. The beds were so comfortable and we all enjoyed the communal spaces in the house and the outside patio. It’s walkable to all of west Asheville and just a short drive from downtown or the River Arts District. The only downside was only one stand-up shower out of the three bathrooms, but we made it work. Communication with Mitch was great with tons of good recommendations for our stay.

Pleasing

The home was beautiful, very clean and in a nice location. But, a few things were inconvenient. The house is not a four bedroom, it has a blowup mattress that can be used on the floor. And the three bedrooms are upstairs which makes it difficult for guests with mobility issues. Also, the one parking place is not very user friendly if you have a large vehicle. But we did have a wonderful visit to Asheville.

Wonderful!

The Jarret house was a complete good surprise, it was easy to find, relatively close to the main attractions in the city, easy checking-in and out. The house was absolutely beautiful and the kitchen was wonderful. It seems the owner really put thought at the small details that made our stay comfortable. For example, the kitchen was fully equipped, nothing was missing, and the owner even put quality soaps and shampoo which was very nice to see. My parents in law are not impressed easily but they are still talking about this house so I’m happy I booked it. The house has plenty of historic character and it felt like we are in really special place. The garden is big and they put attention caring for the beautiful flowers. The beds were very comfortable and the decorations in the house were amazing. It seems the owner really wanted to give the people that rent this house the best experience. Therefore I would highly recommend booking this home! You will enjoy it!

Charming, relaxing, and convenient!

My family and I loved this property! It was elegant, but at the same time, sooo comfortable! It had so much personality and charm. We loved its historical features, blissful bathtub options, attractive furnishings, relaxing fireplaces, and its overall ability to inspire coziness and enchantment. It also had a great patio area with string lights for ambiance. We loved the spacious, fenced yard with the option to close the driveway gate to let our dog have a chance to run around. The amazing bath I had by the fireplace will be hard to beat in the future and may call for a return visit. My young boys also loved the property. Their favorites were reading their books in big cozy leather chairs, playing chess and other board games by the fire in the super cozy parlor, playing with snow in the yard, and having their own turns in one of the claw foot tubs. The Vrbo photos do not do the property full justice. It is simply lovely! This property is also very convenient. We were in walking distance of award winning/ top rated restaurants, an Ingles grocery, and more. We were only about 10 minutes from our planned visit to Biltmore. We had such a wonderful time at this property.
