Perfect location if you’d prefer a secluded stay. I suggest you get groceries before going up the steep, winding mountain road to the beautiful community that this home is located in. Unless you don’t mind driving those roads. The home, the views, everything was beautiful. It’s well stocked with kitchen supplies, if you plan to cook there, which we did for breakfast, lunch and a dinner. Mars Hill, the town, has 2 restaurants, a pizzeria and a burger type joint. Both were very good and affordable. The town also has a very nice grocery store, Dollar General and stores like that if you plan on cooking in or for something you have forgotten. But, it’s all based on if you don’t mind driving the very steep, winding road. At night the road is a bit scary. But we quickly got used to it and just made sure we arrived back at the house before dark. If your plan is to spend a lot of time in Asheville, it’s a little further away then we expected and the mountains make the drive a bit longer then we thought. Lovely, lovely home. Ping pong table, hot tub, the views. Absolutely perfect! The owner is very easy to contact and accommodating. 2 of our guests flew in at 10:30am. Check In wasn’t until 4pm but he graciously allowed us a more accommodating check in time so they didn’t have to sit at the airport for half the day. The beds are so comfortable! Extra blankets in the trunk-like coffee tables if you need them like we did. Separate heater for the downstairs level. We enjoyed every second!
