Nice house. Great bedding for a big group. Pretty views. Recommended to have a car as rideshare drivers seem to not want to drive up the mountain to the house, though it's only 10 minutes to downtown; we did have better luck scheduling Ubers in advance for pickup.

Great time-great location
The home was warm and welcoming with a decorated Christmas tree on display and many holiday trinkets and pillows around. The view was incredible and town was just a short drive away (very important to us). Spacious and clean. We would absolutely stay again but no dogs welcome and we are big dog lovers. I booked last minute and on a whim so I missed that. We had to board our dogs (leash was great, would recommend) overall, excellent! Thank you.

Spacious home, awesome views, plus close to downtown
We had a wonderful time at Asheville Mountain Alchemy. Yonder was able to help us not only check-in early but also check-out late. Any questions that arose, they not only followed up via email but also by text message. My friends and I had an amazing time. The hot tub was so nice to have onsite to relax in especially as we received snow the final night. The house is also close to downtown which was great for getting to any of the spots we selected for dinner.

Beautiful spot
The house was very comfortable and a perfect location, 10mn from Asheville, Biltmore and easy drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Although the rental agency addressed a problem with the fire place, they ignored a couple of other issues. One was a safety issue as the lighting of the walkway to the house remained non functional, the second was about the lower level shower getting hot water for only 5mn at a time ( water then turned cold).

Mountain Retreat!
This home was a perfect place to gather family from across the country for rest and relaxation and the Blue Ridge Mountains. The view was spectacular. The kitchen/dining areas were well layed out for cooking and sharing long meals. We arrived earlier in the day than expected and our hosts graciously accommodated us. The house is just a few miles from downtown Asheville where we enjoyed restaurants, shops, breweries and the Biltmore. There were many hiking trails within 30 minutes. You couldn’t ask for a better location!

Nine old friends reunited for a fun filled 5 days at this home. It was perfect for gathering . The living room is spacious and comfortable. The huge dining table accommodated all with room to spare and the perfectly appointed kitchen made meal prep a breeze. Outside on the deck was another long table with a gorgeous view of the mountains and downtown Asheville only 10 minutes away. This home served us well and we are so happy to have found it.

This place checked every box we were looking for. The house was beautiful, had a picture-esque view, was easy to get to, had plenty of amenities, and a fantastic kitchen. Our group of 11 guys had plenty of space to sleep and hangout. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The owners were attentive and responsive to our needs. Check-in/check-out process was seamless and professional. The home provided the foundation for a vacation to remember. I cannot recommend it any more highly for future groups.
