This home is well appointed and tenderly cared for so you will be comfortable as you explore our wonderful mountain area in Western North Carolina.

Perfect location in Great City
Great size for couple or single or 1 child. Near to everything but in a quiet historic area. Patrick is a perfect host. You need something it is done. Otherwise it is your place.

Lovely Cottage With Amazing Management!
I stayed here for four months while looking for a longer term home in Asheville. This cottage could not be more centrally located - it is close to everything! You can easily walk downtown for shopping and dining, as well as to businesses on Merrimon and Charlotte Streets. The cottage is also just a couple of blocks from the Greenway, which is a great place to walk. I loved being able to safely park my car behind the house, and the fenced yard was such a joy for my dog, who spent hours on the back porch in the sun. It has everything you might need for a great vacation, and you could not ask for a more responsive host. Patrick responded to every question I had immediately. He was the best VRBO host I’ve encountered!

"Happy house" in Asheville
Charming cottage, convenient to grocery stores and downtown Asheville. The house was sparkling clean when we arrived, with two bouquets of fresh flowers. Whenever we had a question or concern Patrick, the owner, responded right away and very helpfully. The cottage was comfortable and we loved being there. We're told someone described this as a "happy house," and that's what it was for us!

The perfect get away in a great neighborhood
Chestnut Cottage truly served as my home away from home during my time in Asheville. It offers tranquil privacy in a great neighborhood that is convenient and close to everything! The fenced in yard was perfect for my two dogs! I highly recommend!

Chestnut cottage
We adored our time here very much. The house is comfortable, cozy and clean. But, the location beats all: 5 minute walk to town, dinner spot right in the neighborhood and a new Italian restaurant opens in Oct., plus so much to see and do. We stayed for 3 months to escape Florida’s summer heat, and what a great decision. Weather July-Aug was little warm, but all the shade trees in the area kept it lovely. Thank you Patrick and Rebecca for sharing your delightful historic cottage!!

Amazing stay!
This is an awesome long term stay option, especially traveling with pets. The house is older but well cared for and felt very homey. Plenty of room for two of us to work remotely. Loved the fenced yard for our dog plus a spot to park our car. Walkable to downtown Asheville. Patrick was quick to reply with any questions or concerns. We would definitely stay again!

Great Cottage Centrally Located
We stayed in Asheville for the month of February at this fabulous cottage in the center of Montford. It is centrally located and walkable to a lot of places within the city. The bed was so comfortable, the fenced in backyard was great for our dog, and the cottage was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The wifi was great and supported two of us working remotely. Patrick was great and responsive to any questions we had. Would absolutely recommend to others to stay.

December in Asheville
This was our first visit to Asheville and we enjoyed our month long stay. The house is located in the charming historic neighborhood. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood and to downtown Asheville. There are plenty of stores, restaurants and services nearby either by walking or driving. Since it was December many of the houses were decorated with holiday lights. The house was clean, fully stocked and charming. Our dog enjoyed the fenced in yard and also sitting on the couch looking out the window. Lots to see in the neighborhood! Communication with Patrick was excellent before and during our stay. He shared helpful area information. I recommend staying here and would stay here again. Thank you Patrick for your hospitality.

Comfortable house a quick walk from town
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay! The cottage had everything I needed, including a very comfy bed. It was such a pleasure being a quick walk to everything downtown has to offer, including great restaurants & live music. (There is a great little Italian restaurant called Chiesa right in the neighborhood, literally 3 blocks away.) My hosts were exceptionally receptive to any questions or requests that I had. I look forward to returning!

Excellent location, charming house, perfect host
This charming, historical house in Montford is simply wonderful in every way. The house is cozy and comfortable, equipped with everything you need, and has the most comfortable mattress ever! In the mornings the house is brimming with sunlight streaming through the many windows beckoning you to start your day with a walk in this lovely neighborhood. The location could not be better. You are within walking distance to several markets and are a few blocks from downtown shops and access to the highways. The house has off street parking in the back yard where you can enter the home without having to navigate stairs. I traveled with my dog and found the fenced backyard to be a wonderful benefit. The porches are a great spot for enjoying your morning coffee while doing some serious people watching! Rebecca is the reason why your stay will be so perfect. She is a fountain of information about Asheville and she’s happy to take the time to answer any questions you may have. The best part of my six week stay was developing a friendship with Rebecca. Trust me, folks, you won’t find a better spot to stay than this gem on Chestnut. I can hardly wait to return again myself!

Cozy, Comfortable, Charming, Convenient !
My husband and I stayed here in March while visiting family and were very pleased with the property. The friendly owner, Rebecca, was on hand to greet us and acquaint us with the accommodations and amenities. Fresh flowers (!) in the kitchen and dining room made us feel immediately at home. The cottage was very clean and had everything we might need during our stay including the unexpected and much appreciated coffee grinder and a cart for the convenience of carrying groceries back from stores which are within easy walking distance. The charming home is thoughtfully decorated with guest's comfort in mind. A small library of books, music, movies, games, visitor info, Internet access and 2 TVs were at hand. Rebecca's love of Asheville is apparent with the work of local artists displayed in every room. A walk-in closet, accessible from both bedrooms, as well as many built-ins provide plenty of space for storage, even in the bathroom. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars....would have liked an additional powder room. Montford has become our favorite neighborhood (don't miss dining at Mile High !) and we hope to find this property available to rent the next time we visit Asheville.
