Premier vacation rental homes on Lake Lure & downtown Asheville, NC

Awesome place, great location. Host was super easy to work with. Can't go wrong with location, size and service.

Great apartment for the weekend! Quaint and modern, we really enjoyed our time!

Wow! Amazing! Incredible! The property is so beyond our expectation. The amenities are incredible. Any water sport you can think of ... it’s there. Bruce is so wonderful to advise and help - he is an great host. It was a dream family vacation that couldn’t have been any better!!!

Very good house and Bruce was very helpful.

Beautiful place, looks excatly like the photos ! A few places to eat right near by and very close to everything!

This condo is in the perfect location regardless of what you’re looking to do in Asheville! Great breweries right by the condo and an easy drive to the biltmore, blue ridge parkway, etc. The kitchen was great for breakfast in the morning and the beds were comfy.

Our family enjoyed our stay for the week. Bruce was really helpful in communicating with us before arriving and throughout our stay. Check-in was easy. There were even some fun unexpected amenities like the kayaks on the dock. We also rented a boat one day and it worked out well in getting the boat to this dock. I recommend this stay.

Great location in West Asheville. Lots of places within walking distance and a short uber ride to downtown. Mike is a great host and his place is wonderful! Highly suggest staying here.

Such a great spot! The back deck was the most comfy spot and amazing view! Super comfy house with easy access to Asheville! Might be out next Thanksgiving getaway spot!!

Bruce was an awesome host. The condo is beautiful, and extremely clean. Bruce has put a lot of effort in to make sure every last detail made the stay enjoyable. I would recommend his condo to anyone looking to visit Asheville. The place was walking distance from all the best places. The off street parking was safe and secure. The whole building complies with wearing masks in public areas. Don't think twice. Just book this place and don't worry about a thing.

Great host, great place, center of EVERYTHING downtown. Pristine and perfect space, could not have been better.

Great place Everything is as advertised

Great location in West Asheville - close to shops and bars and great for biking. Very clean. Gave it 3 stars because of the bright red exit signs in the apt, which made it extremely difficult to get a good night’s rest, and didn’t seem to be communicated anywhere in the posting.

Great stay. The location cannot be beat. Mike was a phenomenal host. Highly recommend and would definitely use again.

Perfect Location! Walk to incredible eateries: The Admiral; Taco Billy; Hole; snuggle up in the comfortable king size bed or take-in the perfectly crafted style of the West Nest! Instantly feels like home in the midst of your travels. The area had an incredible vibe but he place was tucked away and safe. The hosts we're quick to communicate, looking forward to a return visit!

Excellent place to stay in West Asheville!! Loved the antiques decorating the place and also really appreciated how it wasn’t attached to any other units (it was very quiet). Extremely clean and comfy. Would definitely stay there again. Highly recommended!

We will stay here any time we make it to Asheville! The location, the amenities, and the super comfortable bed made this trip perfect! Mike’s spot is walking distance from some of the best spots we explored over our vacation. Anything we wanted to do was within a couple of miles from The West Nest. Amazing waterfall hiking spots within 35-45 minutes away. DuPont State forest and Catawaba falls are some must sees!!

Highly recommend the restaurant Jargon for tasty food and drinks! Other spots close by not to miss: Achetype Brewing, Taco Billy, ... read moreWe will stay here any time we make it to Asheville!

New construction Close to all downtown Asheville activities.

The property is clean, in a GREAT location, and modern without being overdone. Great Value! Our host went out of his way to make sure we had a great time with advice and suggestions. I will stay again and will recommend to others.

Great place right in the middle of Haywood Rd. Walking distance to several shops and restaurants. Comfortable, quiet, will definitely stay again!

We enjoyed our stay in the West Nest, and Mike was a fabulous host. He was very professional and accommodating. He provided us all of the information we needed, and let us do our thing, but I knew he was there if we needed any help.

One of the best things about the West Nest is the location. It was very easy to get around, by walking, driving or calling and Uber. The driveway is off the main road through West Asheville, and there is a large gravel lot so parking was never an issue.

Secured clean downtown condo We were pleased with this condo. We brought our mother and mother in law on a visit to Asheville to experience Biltmore. The Condo was clean, secure and had elevators. The check in and checkout was easy, fully stocked, views of Mountains. Thanks for a great experience.

Only place to stay in Asheville!! Close to everything! Clean and nice!

Slice of heaven on the lake We had a wonderful experience at the enchanted cottage. Thanksgiving dinner was cooked and there was plenty of room for everyone in the kitchen and at the table. Property is well maintained and clean. The porches give you beautiful views and the boat dock is even better. The tram down to the cottage is a bonus for easy unloading and loading. Parking was a little tight but we made it work. We will definitely be reaching out again for our next stay. Possibly during boating season. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

This place is outstanding!! We loved everything about it. It’s very stylish, clean and modern. It is right in the middle of downtown so we walked every where for great food! We couldn’t be any happier. It has perfect, safe parking and everything being on safety codes made me feel super comfortable. We’ll definitely be back! AND huge bonus, the host was amazing and gave me wonderful suggestions on where to go, etc!

Great place for 2 to stay in Asheville. Short walk to spots in West Asheville and New Belgium brewery. Short drive/Uber to other areas of town, including downtown. Convenient parking, easy check in/check out, and clear communication from host.

Loved the place! The cameras made me a little uncomfortable. Everything else was perfect. Thanks for everything!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the cottage. The host communicated well and was very personable. We had intended to explore the area more, but the cottage was so comfortable inside and out that we spent most of the weekend there. Multiple balconies provide awesome views of Lake Lure and the mountain backdrop. The location was great, only a couple minutes drive to the many restaurants and shops around the lake.

We will certainly look here first the next time we're coming to the area. I would recommend you do the same!

Extremely relaxing We've stayed at other properties on Lake Lure in the past. This home is our favorite. The trolly was a major plus. We vacation with several elderly people and grand children so this was ideal. The screen porch was a huge hit for sitting and watching the boat traffic pass by. We'll definitely be back.

We stayed at Bruce's lake house over the weekend. The house is exactly as shown in the pictures, beautiful ambience and a wonderful seating area. We enjoyed living there. The house has an extra half bath which was was helpful for our big group. The lake area and the lights are beautiful.

Fantastic stay! We had such a wonderful time in the Enchanted cottage. Excellent communication with the owner and the property was beautiful. Just as expected and more!

Clean and comfortable and very close to restaurants, breweries, and The Biltmore. Highly recommended.

Johnson Family Review Property is great, pontoon boat is a big plus, lake is awesome

The place is great! Very clean, large, and easy to walk to things downtown.

Great place to stay in west Asheville! The place was very stylish, clean and comfortable! My husband got a better nights sleep than we did in our hotel because of this bed. Walking distance to so much-breweries, bakeries, restaurants. We will definitely be staying again when we visit.

We had an awesome time here! The location is (Website hidden by Airbnb) less than 10 minutes to The Admiral, New Belgium, Biscuit Head, and tons of other bars and restaurants. The place was clean, the bed was comfy, and we had everything we needed. Mike was a great host, and we will definitely stay here again when back in Asheville!

Vacation Nice place enjoyed being close to downtown

Nice house with boat This house is a nice lake house with a great location on the lake. We had a very nice week with the whole family. The bedrooms are not large, but there is more than enough space in the house for everyone. The screened in porch was great! We spent the majority of our time on the porch. There are two kayaks, a canoe, and a pontoon boat available for use, which we were able to use multiple times during our stay. It was a great time on the lake. Our trip in May gave us the lake to ourselves, but I can imagine that the lake could become quite crowde... read moreThis house is a nice lake house with a great location on the lake.

My wife and I stayed here while exploring Asheville. The apartment was private, clean, and came with a lot of extra amenities like an outdoor patio for relaxing. Our host was very responsive to any questions we had and check-in was very easy.

This apartment could go in an Airbnb ad. Cute decor, everything was sparkling clean and comfy. Close to good shops and restaurants. A+

Bruce’s condo is an amazing place to stay in Asheville. It is clean, modern and located within walking distance of downtown. We will definitely be back!

Bruce was awesome! The place was so clean and check in was easy. He answered all of my questions quickly. Would definitely stay again!!

Great place to stay with lots of privacy in a hip neighborhood

My wife and I were just taking a quick trip to Asheville and this was the perfect spot us to crash! It was easy for us to get the rest of Asheville from here and there were even great restaurants within walking distance.

Mike has also kept the place very updated and modern. Two thumbs up!

Great place and awesome location in West Asheville! The West Nest is within walking distance to excellent restaurants, shops, bars, etc and a short Uber/Lyft ride to downtown. The apartment was clean, comfortable and plenty of space for us with all the amenities you need. Mike was super helpful with recommendations for restaurants, breweries, etc and hiking nearby. We loved staying at the West Nest and would definitely return in the future!

Great property in a great location Perfect place for friends gathering for an Asheville weekend. Many places within walking distance. Roomy and clean!

Bruce was very communicative from the time I booked my stay through the time of the trip. Check-in was a breeze and the condo was clean and spacious. Everything was well stocked, including the toiletries, kitchen, and linens. Parking was very easy with the garage space and it was a convenient location.

This place was super clean, comfortable and within walking distance to pretty much everything downtown. Bruce was super responsive and offered great suggestions of things to do. Check in and check out we're a breeze. I would highly recommend Bruce's place.

West Nest is very nice, cozy, well appointed and an excellent location. I would definitely stay here again.

Bruce provides my friends and I with excellent suggestions for area breweries and restaurants and definitely pointed us in the right direction. The apartment was beautiful and walking distance to everything in downtown Asheville. I will definitely be staying here when I return.

Great location and very clean property. Everything was as described - very easy check in and out! Would highly recommend staying here for a trip to Asheville.

The family and I had a perfect Thanksgiving retreat at the Enchanted Cottage. The home had everything we needed to cook a full Thanksgiving meal from pots/pans, utensils, dinnerware, and all the small appliances such as a crockpot! The home had such a warm inviting feel to it. The kids loved the downstairs play area where they had their own tv. It was nice for all four of the kids to sleep in one big room. They had a blast! The home had plenty of towels and really everything one would need for a home away from home. Will definitely come back to... read moreThe family and I had a perfect Thanksgiving retreat at the Enchanted Cottage.

We held a friends’ reunion at The Enchanted Cottage and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed taking out the pontoon on the lake!

This is a fantastic property! Clean, spacious, well appointed, modern, comfortable, and within walking distance to almost everything downtown. Bruce communicated well with us and was helpful and informative. We highly recommend this property! Five stars!

Fantastic place - very clean and comfortable. Location was great - really enjoyed getting to explore West Asheville (the Admiral, Battlecat Coffee, and local shops) but only a short Uber downtown. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Bruce's place was very nice and cosy. Had all the creature comforts and conveniently located in the heart of town. He was great to deal with - everything went smoothly

great location very convenient to downtown and safe

We had a wonderful stay! Great amenities and close to everything.

My stay at Bruce's place was amazing! It was clean, spacious and a close walk to all of downtown Asheville. I would highly recommend staying at Bruce's place and would love to stay here again!

Great week! Wonderful property, we'll be going back for sure. Kids got a kick out of the funicular and the pontoon boat. It was a little chilly that week, but we were still able to get out on the boat. Very close to shops and restaurants in Chimney Rock, and only about 10 minutes from the Ingles grocery store. Day trips into Asheville and Black Mountain were fun.

Great location! Fantastic space with great amenities. Perfect for a family. Good parking situation and easy access to downtown. Would stay again. Great new modern building.

Mike's place is beautiful. You will enjoy your stay

We stayed in West Asheville to get to see a different area to the city and it did not disappoint! We could walk to many places in west Asheville and the coffee shop across the street is amazing!

This place is perfect if you're looking for clean, comfortable and close to all West Asheville has to offer. The balcony is great and all amenities you'd expect to find. If you stay, walk down to Owl Bakery. It's just a short walk away and you wont be disappointed!

Great place. Bruce was very nice and prepared. His place was spotless. It had everything we needed. I would recommend and will stay again.

Awesome spot! Surrounded by all the food Asheville has to offer, far enough away from downtown where you can get some quiet, but everything was a short uber away. Highly recommend for a long weekend.

What a great place! The location was wonderful, the home was very comfortable and beautifully decorated, and the comfortable bed was no joke! We were able to walk to a lot of great restaurants and shops, and it was a super quick drive to downtown. We will absolutely be back.

My wife and I came and stayed for our anniversary. It was great! Walking distance to two breweries, a pizza place, and a bunch of other awesome west Asheville things. Check in and check out were super easy too. We'll be back 🙂

Mike was so quick with communication and we had a great stay. The west nest is a prime location and it was quick to get to the heart of Asheville, we loved exploring west Asheville, and the very best coffee is just across the street!

Perfect location! An easy and beautiful walk to downtown or a quick Uber ride. The cafe across the street was fantastic and we ate there every morning! Bruce was extremely helpful and sent us amazing restaurant suggestions. There are so many breweries in the area - and always something to do! The space was clean and beautiful, tucked away from the Main Street but still a perfect distance to all of the action!

This place is great! Very clean and the bed is so comfortable! Walking distance to great restaurants and bars. Checking in was easy and Mike was very informative about places to go and things to do.

Loved our stay!!

Great location in West Asheville with several fun things within walking distance such as restaurants, retail and a coffee shop. And it's still not far from downtown and the River Arts District. Great decor, full kitchen, comfortable bed and plenty of room for relaxing. Even an outdoor sitting area to sun in when it was warm enough to be outside. Will definitely be back!

We have been to Asheville a bunch and this place was so nice because we never had to use our car. Even in the winter the blue skies and mountain air made it such a treat to walk everywhere. Asheville is such a fun city and seems to get better every time we visit. We would highly suggest staying here! You won’t be disappointed.

We had the pleasure of being the first Airbnb guests in the West Nest and we definitely hope to be back. Mike was an excellent host throughout our stay. He even gave us a bottle of wine and wrote a nice note welcoming us as his first guests.

The space was clean and new. Some of our favorite features were the spacious outdoor porch and super comfortable bed.

This property is situated in the heart of West Asheville, right near the Admiral restaurant. Everything you need food, coffee and entertainment wise is within walking distance.

Great place and great location!!

Fantastic location and very comfortable. Will definitely plan to stay again next time we're in Asheville.

Great location and comfortable space to go back to, the area that it is in is a short walk to many cool restaurants/stores/bars that West Asheville has to offer. Will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect morning coffee sunset Views We love Lake Lure!

The Enchanted Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. The amenities are great, and the house is surprisingly large with a deck over the boathouse that catches sun and shade throughout the day. The screened in porch is a place to savor the early morning sunrise with fish jumping in the lake and the late night sounds of the lake while being protected from insects. There are swings on one open deck, and table and chairs on another deck, along with rocking chairs to watch the sun set. There's a fire pit, and a gas grill.

There are a lot of steps, but if you are in the mountains down to a lake, there will be steps. Kayaks and canoe and pontoon boat, and life jackets, are available with the cottage and they are fun on the lake! The kitchen is well appointed for cooking, the large picnic table off the kitchen seats 8 easily, stools nearby for more. There are TV's upstairs and downstairs to follow sports, and all seating everywhere is comfortable. Linens are provided, which is incredible. There is a funicular (a tram) which helps transport items up and down from parking at the top to lake level at the bottom. This quaint, rustic, historical cottage is highly recommended by those of us who stayed there over Labor Day Weekend. read less

This was our first time to Asheville and having a nice place to lay was a nice touch. Clean and minutes away from everything.

Wonderful house Very nice house, wish the lake wasn't drained.

Super cozy loft space in a cute neighborhood! We loved how close this place seemed to be to everything. Mike was a wonderful host, will definitely be back.

GREAT location! Very central to all of West Asheville, either by walk or uber. It was clean and comfortable, and perfect for a 2 night getaway. Check in was easy, and while we did not need to contact Mike during our stay, he was very responsive prior. Would definitely stay here again!

This place was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A perfectly located place perfect for taking in Asheville.

Absolutely loved this place, super close to the breweries we wanted to tour (New Belgium, Green Man, etc.) and walking distance to Hole (best doughnuts in town). It’s tucked back from the road which is nice (kind of hidden from the main street) but there is so much to do/eat/drink within a 5-7 minute drive. We were consistently pleased with how close we were to the places we wanted to visit and the restaurants we wanted to try.

cozy, tidy, GREAT a/c, and across from several of the hottest spots in asheville. would definitely stay again.

We love it We had good time

Great location, great space for an Asheville getaway. We'd stay here again!

Our stay at the West Nest was great. Easy access to the highway to drive to hiking trails, quick walk to nearby eateries, and a quick drive to downtown Asheville for breweries and touring about. The location is great and the room is perfect for a weekend with great amenities. We would gladly stay here again.

perfect location for walks to Pizza Mind, Archetype Brewery and Urban Orchard.

New condo in a new building. Very clean and modern. Equidistance between south slope and the industrial area turned brewery strip and the main downtown area which offered all the bars and restaurants etc. The condo building itself though is on a meh street. It is safe, but just know it is across the street from the bus depot and a gas station where there were always people just hanging out - especially if you are coming home late at night. Bruce is very accommodating and helpful and the parking spot and ease of walking around is a plus!

Wonderful stay! The apartment was clean, a good size for two people, and the location was perfect. It was within walking distance to cafes/restaurants and a $10 uber to downtown. Mike was communicative and very accommodating. My husband and I would absolutely stay here again if visiting Asheville and we highly recommend!

Great location and apartment. We have stayed here twice and plan to be back.

Nice location Very clean and spacious. They provide you with plenty of towels and anything you might need. The view was breathtaking! Will definitely be coming back!

This a lovely space as advertised! A lot of space and good beds. We’d stay there again for sure

Excellent hosts, very comfortable, great location, perfect Birthday staycation pad.

The place was beautiful, clean, and in a perfect location. Mike and Bruce were phenomenal and we will absolutely be coming back.

Great location to walk to restaurants, bars and shops!

Awesome location. Plenty to do from a walking distance yet private/secluded. We would love to stay again!

We loved staying at the West Nest for our long weekend in Asheville. It was very thoughtfully appointed and comfortable and walking distance to lots of great spots. We especially enjoyed The Whale, WALK, New Belgium, and BimBeriBon. We would love to stay there again!

We had a great stay at the “West Nest.” The place was very clean and comfortable. The bed was amazing. The air was cold and perfect, which is always a deal breaker for me. We appreciated that the place was tucked back out of the way. We walked to restaurants, including The Admiral, King Daddy’s and WALK. We easily got an UBER to downtown. Mike was a great host and it was a wonderful first Air BNB experience.

Mike was quick to respond to some confusion we had our second night. A beautiful place to stay and super close to so many fun local shops.
Would absolutely stay here again.

This is a super cozy studio apartment within walking distance of several restaurants and breweries. It was fairly quiet in the area while we were having our stay; it is nicely tucked away and private. Communication with Mike was easy and responses were prompt.

Great find with lots of good eats within walking distance!

Lovely amenities, great location, cozy and comfortable!!

Great location! Perfect spot to walk all of west avl, river arts, and to downtown. Highly recommend

Weekend get-away with friends The Enchanted Cottage was a perfect spot for a quick get-away with friends from Asheville. Very relaxing and comfortable. It is, however, a little worn around the edges. Things like completely mid-matched glassware, rusted baking sheets, and boxes of games with missing pieces. It wasn’t a problem for us, but if you are expecting tight amenities, you might prefer another property. If you’re looking for laid-back, then you, as we, couldn’t ask for better.

We enjoyed Mike's place! Convenient location & nice place. This was our first time with Airbnb so we were hesitant, but it was great!

5 Stars through and through. Highly Recommended!!!

Great place! Comfortable & convenient. Would def stay here again. Great restaurant recommendations too! Yum!

Great spot in a fun city! Great condo and amenities!

There is a take out Chinese place you can walk to called China Taste. We loved it. Also this place has great parking and it easily gives you access to all of Asheville. There is a big grocery store 0.5 miles and lots of restaurants! We loved it!

Beautiful lake house that I cannot recommend enough!

Great clean and nice place!

Great well designed private place in a great location, was very quiet on the weekend. Awesome would stay again anytime.

This Airbnb is incredibly convenient to anything we needed to get to. The location is awesome for anyone visiting the area wanting to be close to shops, breweries, and restaurants. We loved the location, the Airbnb was very clean, modern, and I appreciated the little things that made it very easy to stay in - every switch is labeled, all instructions are clear/laid out, there are many plugs/USB ports available and even an Alexa speaker for tunes.

Small detail about this being across from a bus stop, for those who are looking at the area: there are some folks sometimes wandering around outside who clearly don’t live in the building and are coming from the bus stop. The Airbnb condo building and adjoining garage are completely locked, only accessible by access code, and most times we saw a person at the front desk as we came/went. At no point did we ever feel unsafe. We walked many times to and from downtown and had a lovely stay. read less

Ideal accommodations for wheelchair user Clean and roomy, comfortable beds, excellent kitchen—all in all, a wonderful property. It’s walking distance from all downtown. The bus station is just across the street. Parking is in a secure garage.

Our stay was lovely, an adorable studio perfect for two, and the location was perfect for a lovely stroll through the town and the beautiful art work along the way.

Great accommodations with indoor parking. Walkable to restaurants, brew pubs & shopping. Easy drive to Biltmore. Great communication for check-in. Bruce made great restaurant recommendations.

GREAT !! Has everything you need and great location!

Stayed here for a few days, the apartment was beautiful and clean. The host was accommodating and answered all of our questions. The location was close to everything downtown.

Small, but very stylish comfortable space, in a great location. Nice upper deck. Great bed, shower and furnishings. Tidy, functional well equipped kitchen.

Asheville Great property and location. Check in and out was an easy process.

Such an amazing place to stay! The location could not be more perfect! Loved being able to walk to dinner and drinks. Great communication and tips where to go. The bed was beyond comfortable! Can’t wait to plan our trip back!

This cozy loft has everything my boyfriend and I needed for our 2 week stay in Asheville. We were able to cook most of our meals, and the spacious porch is such a bonus if the weather is nice.
Just a 5-7 min drive to river arts district, downtown, and most other places you would want to get to. Adorable coffee shop across the street, and walking distance to restaurants. Would stay here again!
Ps. The WiFi would cut out a few times a day while we were working from home which was a minor inconvenience

We loved the location. Haywood St has so many great restaurants and shops. Very laid back vibe. Everywhere else we went was just a 10 minute drive. West Nest was super comfortable. Can't wait to return.

Great experience! We were so thrilled with the space for our Girls' Weekend. The keyless lock system is great and easy. The West Nest is in a perfect location and walking distance to just about everything. It was the perfect size and we loved the patio! Perfect for enjoying a cocktail or a glass of wine (there was a bottle waiting for us!). Mike also gave me a list of places to go prior to, which was great. Thanks for sharing your great place!

Wonderful spot! We stayed here over Christmas to visit family that live in Asheville. Super cute, clean, and excellent location!

Great place in a great location!

Excellent! We so enjoyed our time! We spent NYE 2018 at the cabin, and it was perfect. It was relaxing and beautiful. The cabin was clean, well-appointed, and charming. Bruce was so helpful in answering questions about Lake Lure and Asheville restaurants and attractions. We appreciated it very much! Can’t wait to stay again!

We loved everything about this place from the layout to the furniture to the extras like keurig cups and shampoo, conditioner and facewipes! The condo was so clean and comfortable-just like the photos. The location was awesome. Having our own parking space was so convenient but we walked nearly everywhere! Everything was perfect.

We had a lovely stay at The West Nest. Great central location in West AVL, thoughtfully appointed apartment (all the details were really well thought out!) and Mike and his partner were extremely responsive and helpful as needed. A tad loud for anyone who is extremely sound sensitive (in exchange for the stellar location!) but it was not a problem and I can be a light sleeper myself.

Charming cottage in the woods We really enjoyed our stay at the enchanted cottage - the location is perfect and the view is beautiful. The owner was so nice and very responsive to any questions I had. The cottage is stocked with anything you may need. Will definitely stay here again when we go back to lake lure.

Place was clean. Location was great for walking to coffee shops and bars and restaurants. Would stay again!

Sparkling clean, amazing location would stay again and again! All was wonderful and easy! Just what vacation should be!

We had a spur of the moment trip to Asheville and it was great! This condo is very clean and such a short walk to all of the downtown activities. Have to drive to the Arts District, but definitely worth it to book this place! Bruce was so nice and responsive with great and thorough recommendations!

Exactly what we needed for a wedding weekend in Asheville. Would stay again!

Great stay in West Asheville!

Perfect location for a leisurely couple's weekend - easy access to everything. Be sure to take advantage of the bike rental deals through Banjoe - the e-bikes were the perfect way to travel around town.

We loved staying at West Nest! The location was perfect and Mike’s place was really cozy. We also loved the bed! So comfy, just like Mike and all the reviewers said

Great location for local experience. Lots of places within walking distance and easy trip to downtown on public transit. Clean and very nice, updated place to stay. Quiet at night.

Really enjoyed our stay. It was clean, easy to access. Walking distance to many breweries and restaurants. Took bikes to ride to the other side of the river. Was another great time in Asheville and look forward to returning.

The west nest was the perfect spot for our anniversary getaway. It’s within walking distance of several adorable shops, restaurants, and coffee shops. The nest itself was perfectly set up to cook a small dinner,m out to just relax. Highly recommend, especially if you haven’t experienced what is West Asheville!

Great location on a really quiet cove.

Convenient to everything - great restaurants within walking distance; minutes to downtown, Biltmore, Montford, Blue Ridge Parkway. Very private, tastefully decorated.

A rare instance of the reality being far better than the pictures! Mike’s place is beautifully and carefully decorated, with countless thoughtful touches, like a welcome bottle of wine.

Everything was supremely comfortable, and the place itself was lovely. To the comments about the noise from the timber yard next door. It was honestly not at all intrusive, and we wouldn’t have noticed it if it weren’t for the comments in these reviews. read less

While this apartment is beautifully furnished and conveniently located, I was disappointed with the check in process. After a 6 hour drive, timed to arrive at the listed check-in time of 3:00, we arrived to find that the apartment was still being cleaned and weren't able to enter until almost 4:00 instead. We were okay with a little bit of a wait and left a message for the host to ask when we could check in. He returned my call after 4:00 and seemed to have suddenly changed the check-in time to 4:00 without communicating that to us.

We were surprised because the host had great and very detailed communication prior to our arrival, so they may have just had an off day. The space was very clean and well appointed - just make sure you confirm your check in time with the host on the day of your arrival and you will likely enjoy your stay. We enjoyed the comfortable bed, and being so close to a lot of great restaurants. read less

The location and Bruce's accommodations are premium. Very quiet, new building with downtown Asheville at your fingertips. Bruce has lots of good tips on where to go, what to eat, what to see and do on your visit. We would definitely stay in his place again.

We love Asheville and this was such a great place to stay! The location is within walking distance to our favorite hangout and we discovered some other great places while we were there. The decor is great, the bed was super comfy and we would definitely stay there again! Thanks for the great place!

Location was absolutely perfect. So close to all the local activities. Very good communication and I loved the list of tips he gave. The space was great, perfect for a couple.

Great location, easy to communicate with.

Great place with everything you need!

Excellent. Highly recommended.

The location was perfect and the apartment in great condition!

Great location with easy access to everything exciting in West Asheville. Also the bed is a major plus.

We had a lovely stay in West Asheville. Mike was responsive, gave us great suggestions of dining and other activities in West Asheville. Downside of the place is that while it is convenient to Asheville itself, the house is located behind an acupuncture studio and next to a gas station and lumber yard which we did not expect. It also has bright red industrial Exit signs (inside of the studio apt) that don’t turn off at night and give the room a distinctive red glow.

Great place to stay. Very conveniently located. Extremely stylish and thoughtful touches including treat and really nice water bottle. Very attentive host. Loved the place!!! Will stay again!!

We loved the West Nest. Lots of restaurants, bars, cafes within two blocks. Space is comfortable and clean. Will stay again!

Bruce is an amazing host and has just as amazing of an apartment/condo. The space was plenty big for 5 and absolutely in a great location .. short walking distance to the heart of Asheville!

Great Condo in an excellent location close to everything downtown. Super clean and the transaction was seamless.

Beautiful, clean and perfect location!

This studio apartment has everything you need including full kitchen. Loved the seclusion of being back off the main road. Absolutely loved the location so many amazing places to eat within walking distance including Architect Brewery, Owl bakery, Biscuit Head, Zia's, Gan Shan West and Pizza Mind. Just 5 min drive into town. Super central location definitely would stay again. Mike was an amazing host and very responsive.

Such a great place! It looks exactly if not better than the pictures! So, so close to downtown- you can walk there no problem. Both bathrooms are a GREAT size. WiFi was fast, having a TV in both bedrooms was nice. I loved having a balcony to sip my morning coffee. I will stay there again when I come back to Asheville.

Little gem Condo was clean. Beds comfortable. Location is great. I wasn’t totally comfortable walking directly outside of the building alone due to amount of homeless people.

nice location in a new building with quick walking access to the main streets of Asheville. easy parking. comfortable place for four adults. outfitted with all we needed and more.
we were very pleased at how quickly and well Bruce responded to what turned out to be a small and ultimately irrelevant concern we had upon our arrival. we'd be pleased to return.

First, I have to say Bruce was awesome when it comes to communication. He answered all of my questions promptly. Plus he had emails prepared with info on the area and things to do.

As for the house, the sun porch was the highlight for us. We spent a lot of the time we were at the house out there. The kitchen was very nicely equipped with everything we needed. Our only complaints would be the satellite tv had trouble receiving channels and the WiFi had trouble handling 7 of us at one time in the evenings when we were all on.

The area has a lot to do & see. We kept busy all week. The grocery store is very convenient. There are plenty of great places to eat close by.

Our first trip to the area was fun for our whole family and very comfortable in the house. read less

Great location. Enjoyed the porch and having the boat was a great way to see the sun set.

Bruce’s apartment was wonderful. Checking in was a breeze and Bruce had great communication throughout. It was in the perfect location for everything downtown and was new, clean and modern. Bruce even left me a welcoming gift in the fridge. I plan on staying there any time I go back to Asheville.

West nest was exactly as pictured- great furnishings, large and comfortable bed- exactly what we needed in a place to stay during 5 days in beer city USA. Location is slightly outside of downtown Asheville, but only by a 5 minute drive or so. West Asheville also has plenty to do right on the road that west nest is on. We loved it and would recommend it.

Quaint, peaceful lakeside cottage Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Enchanted Cottage. The view. The boat. The decks. Everything.

Very private space with easy access to Asheville and the amenities of West Asheville. Very good value.

Great location and very comfortable space!

We had an awesome stay in Asheville, NC thanks to this wonderful cozy spot in a fun part of town. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance, including an amazing coffee place right across the street.

The Nest is a wonderful place to stay in Asheville. It’s convenient, comfortable, and cute!! There are several places to grab a bite to eat or something to drink within walking distance. But if you wish to cook yourself, the kitchen is well equipped. Mike’s place is super clean and we felt very safe there. Also, I can easily say this was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. After 4 days of hiking, this bed rejuvenated us every night! Highly recommend!

Mike was the best host we could have asked for. It snowed an incredible amount during our stay and Mike was more than accommodating during the freeze. The location of this Airbnb is incredible. We were able to walk to restaurants and bars without having any difficulty navigating the city. Mikes place was clean, stylish, and just a joy to stay in.

We really enjoyed staying at Bruce’s place and would do it again! It is true to the pictures and a very comfortable space. It is right in the middle of everything fun in Asheville and can sleep a group of 4-6 well! Bruce also does a great job communicating and providing detailed check in instructions. Thanks for everything!

Bruce's beautiful condo is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, breweries, etc. His directions and check-in instructions were perfect and he always returned our messages quickly. The condo is new and very nicely decorated. Lots of amenities and most importantly, comfortable beds! 🙂 It was a true home-away-from-home. Would absolutely stay there again.

This place is perfectly located! It is easy walking distance to many breweries, restaurants and shops. You can even walk to downtown if you don’t mind a longer walk (about 2 miles). The host communicated well and the bed was very comfortable.

This place was amazing. First time in Asheville and we will definitely be coming back. Perfect location for us to be able to go to the surrounding areas with the interstate so close.

My wife and I have a great time taking a little getaway at Mike's place. It was a perfect spot for us to relax between Asheville adventures. I highly recommend this place

Clean, easy check in and had a bottle of wine waiting for us to enjoy! Also close to walking distance to most food/bars in West Asheville. Would recommend!

Great place to stay. Clean and within walking distance to good eateries. Our host, Mike, was always quick to respond and offered recommendations upon request. Top notch operation.

Awesome vacation Pretty nice place to spend vacations
we hope to do it again soon

Great stay and even better host. Super clean. Everything in walking distance. Great little extra touches from plenty of coffee and tea to extra towels to shampoo, conditioner, cotton swabs, Kleenex and individual hand sanitizer packs in all bathrooms. Extra charging areas for phones, laptops, etc. Bosch appliances in the kitchen and comfy beds with plenty of pillows and extra blankets.

Phenomenal meals including Sunday brunch at Tupelo Honey...best biscuits and siracha honey for dipping the fried chicken yummy!! Thanks So much Bruce. Will definitely be back! read less

Clean and convenient. Walkable to many Asheville breweries.

The location is wonderful—easy walk to everything we wanted. The place was super comfortable and clean with everything you could need—Kuerig for coffee, large fridge, Roku TV, toiletries. Beds are comfortable, and it’s a spacious apartment. We were one couple, but two couples could easily stay here. Bruce is a great host with clear communication and wonderful tips for food and entertainment. We will be back!

Great place. Centrally located to downtown. Very clean.

Great spot for a family lake trip! It was warm and cozy while having all the details that we needed. Great location and fun kayaks too. Thanks Bruce for a great weekend at Lake Lure!

The house was perfect for us. We were very comfortable and its location on a little cove was perfect for letting the kids swim and kayak. We would definitely stay here again.

I loved my stay! The porch was especially a fun feature to have for coffee in the morning. No complaints at all. I’d recommend this if you want a good West Asheville location with a quick drive to downtown.

For my first airBnB. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Stylish, modern, sleek, and the host was extremely professional and responsive. Will book every time I’m in Asheville.

Our weekend stay at the West Nest was perfect! We felt right at home with all the amenities including the super comfortable bed. It was very convenient to be able to walk across the street for a coffee, cocktail or to grab lunch. Mike provided us with a bottle of wine upon arrival. We would definitely come back!

I had a great time at Mike's place! It was so cozy and I immediately felt right at home! I stayed for a week, so the ample closet space, cozy seating options and workspace really helped me settle in. The kitchen was awesome and ready to cook a full meal, I loved that Mike even left an Ingle's card (the local grocery store). The deck was perfect for enjoying a drink! This spot is right in the middle of the action but tucked away.

Great space! The place was very clean and the bed was so comfortable. My husband and I enjoyed walking around the city and exploring local breweries and restaurants.

cutest little apartment with the MOST comfy bed! walking distance to so many cute little west asheville establishments (breweries, cafes, shops etc)

Mike's place was great: a stylish apartment in a cool town. Location is superb and everything in the house is great, from decor to amenities.

This is a great place to stay! Super close to everything, walking distance to most restaurants, and Mike is super helpful!

I could not be happier with my experience at the West nest. We had a blast in Asheville and this air bnb was the perfect spot to call home base. The bed was SO comfortable. The decor was beautiful and unique. It was all perfect and the bottle of sparkling water and wine was a very nice touch
