We enjoyed staying in this quaint bungalow that has been lovingly rehabbed. It had all the necessities we needed for our trip. The decor was charming and the big yard gave us a spacious country feel in town. We enjoyed the front porch and side deck everyday. The extra sink made getting ready in the morning a breeze. Asheville was an easy 25 minute drive and we rode horses up by Marshall. Try the bakery in Weaverville and Stacks in Mars Hill and Taco Billy in Asheville. We loved the location. Traveled with husband and college aged daughter.

This house was perfect for our family getaway. We went for a beautiful hike, toured the campus at Mars Hill University, and attended their Spring show. And the restaurants and shops in the downtown area were precious. The owners of this home went the extra mile, ensuring we had everything we needed. They even left some treats and waters for us. And we especially loved the front porch for our morning coffee. We really couldn’t have asked for anything better. 5 Stars isn’t enough! Thanks so much for helping us make some great family memories.

We enjoyed staying at the Apple on the Hill. The house was charming and we loved the history of the ownership. Everything was super clean and the house was well equipped with all that we needed. We were able to have a wonderful Easter dinner with our daughter who attends Mars Hill University.
We stayed here for a week with my wife and 2 young children. The home is charming with a nice backstory. There was a nice gift basket and a welcome card. Everything was very clean and well kept. It’s only about 10 to 20 minutes from the snow lodges like Wolf Ridge. It’s also 20 minutes from downtown Asheville. I highly recommend it for families because you’re close enough to all of the fun activities, but you stay in a quiet and comfortable place away from the noise and nightmare parking situation in Asheville. The children loved the very spacious backyard, the apple trees are there but it’s winter so we didn’t get to see them with apples or leaves. We will definitely come back here in the future!

Nice little town and house to see some local attractions if you don't mind a short drive. We chose this house for that reason and glad we did. We had a great experience.
