In Asheville, short-term rentals are only allowed if they operate as a licensed homestay. This means that a host must reside on-site in an adjacent unit, ensuring compliance with city regulations while allowing guests to stay in some of the best locations in town!

As your host, I live in a completely separate studio apartment on the property, giving you and your group full privacy while still being available if you need anything. Because this home is a licensed homestay, you get to experience a prime Asheville location that wouldn’t otherwise be available for short-term rental!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.

Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Precious Gem of Asheville

I've discovered a precious gem and I would like to share it, for it brought a wonderful time for my husband and I and our dog. There are so many things to do in the area, from hiking to culture to unique experiences, but just in case you want to relax and unwind, this gem is it. Wonderful patio with shade, sun and jacuzzi, you feel like you live in the enchanting forest, beautiful trees, and for those who appreciate birds and their songs, you have at your disposal a soft symphony.It has a cozy game room, which my husband enjoyed and a workout room with sauna, which I have enjoyed.This gem definitely puts hosting to an upper tier.
