Enchanting Private Property! Minutes from fine dining,award winning breweries!

Enjoy this open floor plan with accented wood, fireplace, updated bathrooms, gas stove.
The back deck overlooks a fully fenced in large private yard, where you can enjoy plenty of southern exposure. During the winter months, the mountain sunset views are beautiful and can be enjoyed especially from the guest bedroom, back deck and front porch. In the summer, there is plenty of shade, and you'll find pots of freshly grown herbs and veggies for picking.

If you decide to relax at home, we offer Spectrum T.V. Netflix. Our Alexa Echo provides SXM Radio and Amazon Music.

~Check out Haywood Road, only a 5.8 miles by car. West Asheville is known for its diverse and excellent food, music venues, vintage boutiques, and hopping breweries.
Downtown Asheville is 8.1 miles by car. Hemmingway's Cuba is our top pick! Not only is the food good, they have panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains off their rooftop bar.

Please contact me if you wish to stay more than 4 nights!

Autumn is beautiful! It peaks in late September-October.
Christmas at Biltmore begins November 3rd. through January 7th.

Spring in the mountains, is my absolute favorite. Asheville has a variety of blooming trees. My property is very colorful as well. Bring your flonase!

It's preferred that you book 4-7 nights. If you would like to add more nights, please contact me first. There is also a two night option if you're looking for a quick get getaway.

Thank you,
Dottie

Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic stay at Dottie’s property. The house was very clean and cozy. Comfortable beds and a large fully fenced backyard for our pup. Dottie had wonderful communication and was very helpful in picking local hikes. We wish we could’ve stayed longer and will definitely look to stay with Dottie again next time we’re in town!

We enjoyed staying here so much. Dottie left good instructions and a lot of information about the area. She also left a nice bottle of wine for us to enjoy. The location was perfect, convenient to downtown, close to many areas we wanted to visit. Would definitely stay here again

Dottie's place was great! Not too far a drive to activities/town but just outside of town, making a nice retreat for peace and quiet. Great bird watching in the back yard, nice kitchen in which to meal prep and comfortable beds, just what we were looking for. Dottie was quick to respond via text, and we didn't have any issues. The gifted bottle of wine made our engagement weekend even more special and I enjoyed perusing the book collection. Highly recommend!

A great house

We had an amazing stay. This house was perfect for us with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms and it was one of the cleanest houses I’ve stayed in. Dottie had everything you would need and it was very thought out with lamps in the right places, lots of towels and hooks in the bathroom. Highly recommend!

A perfect Asheville homebase

I stayed here for 5 days with my friend and my dog while visiting family, hiking and enjoying Asheville restaurants. It’s convenient to everything and Dottie takes such care to stock the house with extras to make the stay more enjoyable. We loved spending time relaxing in the adorable backyard! It’s the perfect homebase for any Asheville stay.

Restful retreat

We loved our stay in Candler. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. Dottie made sure we had a wonderful experience. The house is located on a quiet road with close access to highways. We were minutes from all of Asheville's main attractions. After sightseeing all day, we were delighted to return to this lovely home to relax.

Perfect, relaxing holiday weekend

We had a wonderful time in Candler! The house was beautiful and exceptionally clean. The backyard with the fire pit was perfect to sit around at night and enjoy late spring evening weather. The house was stocked with everything we needed and more - the ingredients for s’mores was a nice touch! We will definitely stay here again next time we visit the Asheville area.

Cozy Home Away from Home

Dottie’s house is cozy and welcoming. It has everything you need. The backyard is spacious for outdoor eating, drinking coffee, or just to hear the birds - there’s even a bonfire pit. The location is perfect, not far from downtown. Thank you, Dottie!

Wonderful Home Base!!

We couldn't have asked for a more cozy home away from home. Everything we needed was there for cooking at home, hanging out, etc. and we were regularly visited by a couple of hummingbirds. Our hostess was really on top of things for check-in, etc. and had great recommendations for a few must do things.

A slice of serenity

We stayed the weekend to visit with friends we met there. The property is located just outside of Asheville, making it easy to partake in events and restaurants in town while being nestled away from the hustle and bustle. The owner was easy to communicate with and ensured we were welcomed guests. The house has everything you need and is decorated with perfect touches to make you feel relaxed and on vacation. The backyard and overlooking deck were perfect for morning coffee and bird watching. It felt like a slice of serenity.

Dottie’s home exceeded expectations! She thought of everything to make it comfortable for our visit! Furnished with everything plus more than we needed for our 3 nights! She left notes to explain everything, toys for the dog, lots of towels, cold water in the fridge and a bottle of wine with a thank you note when we arrived! Just perfect! Beautiful property!

Great mother/daughter trip

This was the perfect place to stay, we hiked, shopped, did breweries, Biltmore and more! Dottie's place was within 10-15 min. of all- the farthest was for hiking! It is super clean, very well appointed with everything you could need for cooking if you wanted to. Very relaxing and spa like. Dottie was very communicative and responded to any questions we had and even offered to ship our charger that we accidentally left!
