The property was as described and the host was very welcoming, including offering fresh picked blueberries from the garden. This is a central location for all of the activities that I was interested in - golf, hiking, food, other activities (right next to Municipal golf course).

Marta's place was such a cool, retro, mid-century space! Cool and comfy with all the things needed to enjoy the stay. Her backyard was a bird watcher's dream! Marta was warm and friendly and went out of her way allow me privacy in her space. Would absolutely recommend this place...unless you're super tall - it is a basement apartment with low-ish ceilings.

If you love retro and are not too picky about a deep clean and don’t mind the owner being above you, this could be a good choice, especially for the price. It’s a basement apartment that has all the original furnishings from the 60’s, I think the appliances as well! So, kind of cute, but due to the age, there’s ground-in grime that could benefit from a deep clean—cabinets, oven, refrigerator, baseboards, etc. If you’re sensitive to odors, then this probably not the place for you as it is kind of musty plus you get cooking odors from upstairs. On the plus side, the bed was very comfortable, and it was very quiet at night, so pretty good sleeping. The windows open, which is great if you like fresh air at night. I loved that. The a/c and heat are completely controlled by the owner upstairs, so you have to ask if you want adjustments. One of the streets coming to the house is extremely narrow, and I almost had a heart attack when a big truck almost took my side view mirror off. Inches to spare. If you have a smaller vehicle you can comfortably park next to the owner’s carport, but it’s a little difficult with a larger vehicle. The owner was friendly, and the written instructions were clear. You just have to be comfortable with not having 100% privacy and being worried about bothering her. I certainly do not want to dissuade anyone from renting here, but you do have to be able to tolerate all the things I mentioned.

This was one of the nicest places I have ever stayed. Everything was clean, was exactly as described. Marta was a very gracious host. Will definitely be going back here. Thanks again.

Sweet, very vintage basement apartment. All amenities were satisfactory. Streaming television worked well as did the wifi. My lone critique is a suggestion that it's time for a new bathroom mat. Tall people beware, this is a basement apartment with dropped ceilings, I think 7' in places. Parking was good, and access to the apartment was easy. I would happily stay here again if I were to again visit Asheville.

My husband took pics at a destination wedding. First time trying VRBO. So glad we did. Very convenient to book, get to, and a very quiet neighborhood near a golf course and nature center!

The apartment is a basement walkout, basically unchanged from the time it was created in the (I'm guessing) 60s...basic, yet comfortable enough. Martha is a caring host, wanting you to be happy!

The area is beautiful, the property lovely, and Marta was a kind and helpful host. I was attending a hands on building workshop, and had been working outside in the hot sun, so, when I returned to the house I appreciated, and really enjoyed, the shower and slept very well in the comfortable bed! Thank you Marta!

We throughly enjoyed our stay in this spacious and clean, mint condition, vintage classic. Ms. Marta was an excellent host of this conveniently located gem. It is worth noting folks over 6'3" might have an issue with low ceilings. We are 6' and 6'3" and had no problems.

It was our first time visiting Asheville and the space couldn’t have been better! The space had everything we needed to make ourselves at home and Marta made herself available for if we needed anything at all. We took lots of walks around the quiet, lovely neighborhood and enjoyed the view of her beautiful garden. Would definitely visit again!

Marta was conscientious of our need for peace and quiet, and it was like there was no one in the house but us, all the time. We had every need met, and everything we could want was in the apartment. It was also perfectly located near all the things we had to attend to in downtown Asheville and surroundings. Highly recommended.

We had a great time at this house. The owner was very hospitable. This was a very quiet place to stay and only a few minutes from downtown Ashville. Loved the 50’s themed decor. And spacious living room area. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans, and Marta left us with milk and orange juice for our first morning! It was great to have a washer dryer also. The gardens out back were a lovey place to have coffee in the morning. Do not miss the drum circle on Friday nights! Christine and Jim

We love to stay at Marta's while visiting our grandchildren. It's a treat to hear the birds singing in her well kept garden. There is convenient grocery shopping nearby, plenty of room in the kitchen to make meals and a lovely neighborhood for walking. Marta is warm and friendly. Perfect!!

Great place, but with limits

Great place, but with limits

Large, well-furnished, basement apartment in great location with responsive owner. Concerns were low-ceiling in the modern kitchen and shower - about 6' high, noise from gas furnace startup in winter, lack of thermostat access, occasional noise from upstairs residence and related privacy concerns. Apt is dark at night due to lighting and old school decor. Nevertheless this was a fun trip.

I came here to flee Hurricane Matthew and had a great little mini-vacation. This was a great place to stay in a very quiet neighborhood. The accommodations were awesome with some very thoughtful touches by my host. It was very private with a separate entrance on the back of the house. Parking is very close to the entrance -- making those treks with luggage or groceries a breeze. The kitchen was well-stocked and the bed was very comfortable. It rained during much of my stay so I enjoyed the TV with Roku and the selection of books and magazines on-hand. It is very convenient to get downtown or West Asheville. I will definitely stay here again and I wholeheartedly endorse it for others.

A lovely and charming place to stay. A little gem worth discovering. (and staying)

I was simply delighted when I arrived. Not only was the apartment charming but the owner as well. Great garden view from the apartment and the owner offered me to help myself to tomatoes in the garden. It is lacking nothing, has all the necessities. In fact she even left fruit, candies and other little welcoming items. The location is just perfect, beautiful neighborhood, and easy access to where ever you want to go. Even the neighbors were friendly. They wave when you drive through the neighborhood and talked to me in the driveway when i first arrived. I strongly recommend and will definitely be a repeat renter when I go to North Carolina again. (if available)
