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

Really nice airbnb for a couples trip, the studio was nice and clean. Would definitely recommend staying here if going to Asheville!

Great Airbnb! Easy check in and checkout and well equipped! Will stay again!

Great spot! Super clean, private, and walking-distance to so many great West Asheville spots. Would stay here again, absolutely.

This place is great. From booking to arrival, the communication was fantastic.
The bottle of wine on arrival was a great touch - and the place is as good as advertised. The location is perfectly convenient to all of Asheville - especially the heart of West Asheville, where some of the best food/drink spots around are located. HIGHLY recommend.

Absolutely LOVED this home. It was perfect for our group for a long weekend trip, and the lake is gorgeous. The funicular tram is a cool touch, and with the house being down on the lake, gives you some privacy from the neighbors. We loved that the two decks and a dock, and plenty of space inside as well. Bruce is arguably one of the best host’s I’ve had with Air BnB - he was extremely helpful & communicative with us when we needed it. Would definitely book again!

If you want a great place in Asheville for the weekend this is it! Great location to all the attractions and downtown hot spots. Private downstairs suite in a very nice neighborhood. It was clean and comfortable and very safe. Highly recommend it!

Easily accessible to all parts of the city by either back roads or highway.

Great location in west Asheville with parking! Plenty to walk to including a coffee shop directly across the street and a great brewery. Hope to come back!

Beautiful views! Everything regarding reservation, up-front communication, etc was excellent. I especially enjoyed the videos Bruce sent in preparation for the stay. The unique funicular was pretty cool and an almost "must" for seniors. The cottage is rustic....about what I'd expect for a lake cottage (tree trunks form the supports for the screened-in back porch). The 4 bedrooms are adequate but not at all large, .

The cottage is rustic....about what I'd expect for a lake cottage (tree trunks form the supports for the screened-in back porch). The 4 bedrooms are adequate but not at all large, . Of the two entry level bedrooms, one has it's bathroom in the hallway. It's a good size. The other bedroom had a VERY small bathroom within--about 3 ft by 8 ft--pretty crowded. The upstairs living area wasn't real large, but it was cozy and the gas fireplace was nice. The screened porch off the main floor was huge and probably had the most scenic view on Lake Lure. Downstairs was pretty good-sized with two bedrooms and a decent size bathroom w a foosball table and tv. The pontoon boat was a great asset. The upholstery is stained but it's clean to the touch. Our biggest complaint about the place was the job the cleaners do...or don't do. The bathrooms, kitchens, and carpets are pretty clean but the cleaners seem to limit just what they really "clean." There were spider webs/cobwebs inside of most bedroom windows and all over the porches. These don't happen in a few hours. Window sills don't get cleaned either and the wives had to dust off the dining room tables, lamps, and other areas. I pulled out the couch seat cushions looking for a tv remote and was appalled by all the pretzel pieces and other 'crumbs' that respectable cleaners should have taken care of. However, this isn't specific to this place. We've seen the same thing at other LL VRBO's. The customer is paying a hefty fee for cleaning that is simply incomplete. These folks need to be held accountable by homeowners.

To summarize, we've stayed at newer and more upscale places but there's a price to pay for that. The Enchanted Cottage is a quaint rustic place w a great view and a boat for your stay... all for a fair price. read less

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!

That bed!!!!! So comfortable. The location is fabulous! WALK and Battle Cat directly across the street. Walking distance to River Arts District, South Slope, and Downtown. Check-in video was so helpful! Great parking and felt very safe!

The pontoon boat wouldn’t start. The place is very nice for being built in the 1950s. We enjoyed the views and the family time.

The West Nest is absolutely the best place to stay in West Asheville (all of Asheville, really). You have amazing proximity to breweries, shops, restaurants and more. If you really like downtown it’s only 2 miles away and we walked there easily!

The space is incredibly stylish and cozy, with a king sized bed that you’ll never want to leave (seriously what is up with that bed?? It’s amazing!). We had a great stay for our first wedding anniversary and would love to come back soon. Thank you so much!

Great location, very clean, on-site parking in the building. The apartment had lots of nice touches, such as the coffee maker. The hosts communication was very timely and informative. Great place, highly recommended.

A perfect get away, with breath taking views of the mountain and lake. Everything that we needed was supplied and more. We had enough room for 10 and the cabin was cozy with comfortable beds. We were in awe with the three different level of porches to enjoy morning coffee or evening cocktails including the area on top of the boat house. Great seating area also by the fire pit to make s’mores and enjoy the sunset.

The trip across the lake in the kayaks to see the steps from where dirty dancing was filmed also was a special treat and warranted a watermelon picture! The trolley from where we parked the cars down to the lake was especially convenient and something to talk about. Bruce was an excellent host and his place felt like home for a week. read less

Great condo and great location! We had a great time here! The condo was just like the photos...very comfortable with lots of space.

The Enchanted Cottage was perfect for our long Labor Day weekend, a great space, right on the water! The tram broke the weekend before we were to arrive but Bruce was very accommodating, gave us a partial refund and helped with our belongings. Everything else about our stay was perfect, there was a lot of space for our family and friends, the location right on the water was amazing and the house is also very close to the town of Lake Lure, and Chimney Rock for hiking. We would absolutely recommend the Enchanted Cottage and will look to stay here again when we are back in the area!

Great location in Asheville!!

Bruce was super responsive and provided personal suggestions of things to do and see in the area! Place was very roomy and clean!

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!

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

Wonderful little studio for a west Asheville stay! Lots within walking distance and it’s not a bad walk to the river arts district. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone traveling to Asheville. Plenty of parking and complementary wine left by the host!

Wonderful Place With Great Views This was our first VRBO and first time at Lake Lure. Both have been a great experience. Bruce and Jo have been amazing hosts with a great home on the lake. We had our kids and grandkids joins us for a week on the water. All had a blast and already talking about a return trip. Great home, great location and wonderful hosts.

Excellent studio apartment Location was perfect for us. Quiet neighborhood. Even though this unit is below the main house, minimal footfall was noticed. The hosts seemed to have thought of everything for their guests. The unit was modern and clean. We would easily recommend this property.

This place was fantastic!! I would stay here again for sure!!

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

This is a great place to stay and centrally located. The garage parking was a big plus. Bruce was an excellent host and we look forward to staying here on our next visit.

Amazing place to stay. Clean, organized and easy!

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

Fantastic condo with a great location! Having parking was very convenient and could walk to downtown shops/breweries, etc. Extremely clean and Bruce was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

The place was much better than anticipated in a great location, would stay again!

Great Location! Very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities of home! Mike was great to work with as well! will stay again!!!

Gorgeous house and the back views from the deck with divine. Hope to come back someday.

Really nice place, bed is super comfortable, pillows are super comfortable, couch is super comfortable, shower is super comfortable. Overall, super comfortable.

Perfect spot We rented this apartment for the weekend in Asheville and it was PERFECT! The location is ideal, just a couple of blocks from all the restaurants and downtown hot spots. The apartment is well-appointed, very clean and comfortable. The host provided us with helpful information about where to eat. It also comes with parking in the lock garage, which is so nice to have. We loved our stay here!

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.

The place was very clean, exactly as described & in a great location. It is such a beautiful place to stay & you won’t be disappointed! We loved our time here & hope to come back!!

Great spot

West Nest Review cute, small VRBO in a relatively good location. walking distance to restaurants which is nice. the back parking lot was a little sketchy in that there seemed to be a lot of people who would just park there for nearby restaurants. there was also a staircase that went right up to the deck that anyone could potentially access.

Really nice place! Takes about 25 minutes to get to Downtown Asheville and 30 minutes to the Biltmore so a good central location. Very clean when we arrived and easy check-in/check-out.

Great place with fantastic views. Lots to to do in the area.

Bruce’s place is a perfect location, very easy to get around walking to awesome restaurants or bars and local to highway access. His place is great, clean, and has everything you need. Bruce was helpful since the beginning, available whenever I had questions. Totally recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay at Mike’s place! His home was in a great location with a short walk to places like Archetype Brewery and the best restaurants in West Asheville. Mike provided tips for our stay in Asheville (which were very helpful) and was super responsive. We’d stay here again!

This home is amazing. Right on the cove with kayaks on hand to travel out and be able to watch the sunrise from the lake. They have thought of it all even items on hand for littles to sleep comfortable. Tons of games. WiFi. This home made it feel like home in the mountains on the lake. It was cozy and inviting. Great location.

What a beautiful spot on Lake Lure. Just wish we could have stayed longer! Next year!!

Asheville Wedding Experience Excellent!! The location was great! The property was great! Very nice, clean, private and quiet! Exactly what we wanted! The manager, Bruce, checked on us a couple of times. We had everything we needed!

A beautiful relaxing spot. The house is super clean. Bruce and Jeremy were great to work with. We would highly recommend staying here.

The West Nest was just as described. It is within walking distance to most of West Asheville. The space is clean and includes everything you need. The WiFi was not working but Mike responded immediately and offered to come fix it that day. I would stay here again in the future.

This is a very cute home with beautiful views in a good location. Home is about 25 minutes from Downtown Asheville. Communication was good.
If you are in town for a few days is great. I would not recommend for long stays. It has no storage options for clothes in the master. ( no hanging rods) or dresser. So if you are ok with living out of a suitcase then you are ok. Deck is great, but surroundings look like it hasn’t seen lawn maintenance in a while. With children wanting to play outside it was problematic.

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!

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

Beautiful views. Very quiet and serene! About 25 minutes from Asheville and last bit is a fairly tricky gravel road. Overall house is nice though certainly heavily used. We had a couple funny little issues like no knobs on the lamps but Bruce was super responsive and helped send new ones.

A lovely place to stay in a great location. We had a wonderful weekend getaway in Asheville and recommend staying here to anyone!

Awesome location in West Asheville. Walking distance to multiple restaurants and breweries. Easy check-in. Safe and clean with ample parking.

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.

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 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.

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.

Awesome little spot, very clean, clearly put a lot of thought into the small details

Great space, wonderful location. I appreciated the quick communication. I will be staying longer next time.

We had a great time at the cottage! Bruce was an awesome host, sending us recommendations of things to do in the area and making sure we had everything we needed. The pontoon boat was an added bonus for our weekend!

Great place! House has everything you need. Perfect location! Fall colors were gorgeous! Would absolutely stay again.

This is a wonderful place to stay! Bruce was a great host and it was a terrific location.

This place is a perfect spot to explore Asheville. We liked staying in West Asheville because it is the hip neighborhood with great restaurants and bars. It's not touristy at all like downtown. There were several great places within walking distances of the apartment. It's still pretty quiet though, compared to a bigger city. The bed in the apartment is probably the best thing about it, sooo comfy. We also had fun sitting out on the patio. Overall no complaints, highly recommend!

The house was suitable for three families with 4 children between us, with plenty of space to spread out. The parking was plentiful for our vehicles, and was conveniently located. The kitchen was stocked with standard dining supplies, and the bathrooms were also stocked with various toiletry items.

We loved this beautiful and stylish space. Perfect for our weekend getaway!

Great stay in West Asheville!

Amazing house and location. The views from the house and private dock are incredible. We loved the indoor/outdoor dining room as well. The house has everything you need!!

Amazing place! It has the best views of the lake and having the pontoon boat was awesome! Would definitely stay there again!

We had a great stay at west nest! The location was perfect, we were able to walk to get food and drinks. The apartment was very clean and comfy! Thanks again for the stay!

This is undoubtedly a spectacular home. Our stay included 3 adult couples, and we never felt like we were in each other’s way. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and everything we needed was available.
The house was a little difficult to find the first time in the daylight, and a lot difficult to find in the dark. Make sure to bring everything you need because once you arrive you won’t want to leave. The closest store was a 15 minute drive down the mountain.

One of the coolest features of the house is the the basement theater. We tried to watch a movie but some of the speakers weren’t working. Fortunately one of our friends is a tech nerd and wouldn’t sleep until he solved the problem, which he did!
Overall it was a great stay. Would definitely recommend. read less

Super clean place with a great location. Nestled in a quiet residential area yet close to everything! Just know there is so much to do in Asheville that you can’t spend too much time in the amazing shower!! Would stay here again if ever in town!

Overall great stay at Bruce's Lake House! He was so kind to let us check in earlier than anticipated which was so helpful! The place was exactly as pictured. Just a note: there are tons of steps (to get into the door and down to the dock) so it may be harder for the elderly or folks in wheelchairs to access the house. He had everything we needed from bottle openers to board games!

Would definitely stay here again!

We had such a wonderful stay in Asheville. We had 4 couples staying, and the space was perfect for allowing personal time as well as group time. We really enjoyed the centralized and open kitchen, dining room and living room, which allowed us to continue socializing while making coffee, cooking a meal, watching tv or eating. There was an additional common area in one of the bedrooms that allowed for smaller groups / conversation to take place.

My third time staying here and everything was great once again. Will definitely be back!

Perfect peaceful and fun place for family vacation. Cottage with comforts was a treat! So enjoyed the boat rides at sunset, spectacular Mountain Views of northern sky (perfect for meteor shower gazing), tied off in an inner tube from the deck feeding ducks, fishing from the dock, nice sun loungers and bistro chairs on the deck and wonderful screened porch with game table.

Loved our stay!!

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

We love our stay here! So nice, cute and clean. Highly recommend staying here if you’re ever in Asheville.

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.

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!

I stayed for two nights. The listing was accurate, check-in was easy, neighborhood was quiet,
and communication between host and I was good. The place was cute, bed was comfortable, there were the perfect amount of amenities for there being no kitchen, and the shower was amazing. I would recommend to others and I would stay again.

Great location on the lake. Beautiful home and would definitely stay again!

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

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.

Nice Nice and clean

Great location and very comfortable space!

Wonderful place! We definitely want to come back! Cool location, perfect size for 2 and lots to do around!

A great location right on the lake with a beautiful mountain view. Easy to unpack and transport everything from the car with the funicular - a crowd favorite on our trip! A couple minutes from Chimney Rock and local restaurants. Awesome place to have a get together with some longtime friends. Bruce is great with communication and makes the entire process extremely easy!

Overall, you won’t be disappointed with bringing your groups to this location! Lots of great memories can be made here!

Mike is a GREAT host! He gave plenty of recommendations for things to do and places to eat around Asheville. Check-in was a breeze, communication was fast. The studio apartment was easy to find and very comfortable!

We highly recommend the place! My colleagues and I had a two-day retreat in Asheville to talk about work and also enjoy the city. The place is very close to breweries and a five minute walk to restaurants. The place is very cute and hip. My colleagues and I were mainly interesting in the large living room and big kitchen island, which provided a great space for us to gather around and talk about ideas for a few hours. It fit all of our purposes!

Nice and spacious studio apartment! Great space with a nice little kitchenette for light meals and snacks. Awesome location, right near the highway, so you can truly go to any part of Asheville in no time! The host is awesome, super responsive, and takes cares of your needs and exceeds them. Will definitely stay here again!

The West Nest is the best nest. I loved being close to Battlecat coffee and great restaurants in WAVL. The downtown area is just a short drive away! The hosts were responsive to our needs. Would certainly stay again!

Amazing! Would definitely come again. Very stylish and very clean. Along with cute little touches. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Easy Peasy w/ its own "train"! Let's see: where to start? Your first experience when you arrive is riding a funicular, which seats four comfortably. Kids love it. You arrive @ the fire pit and the lake is a little ways below. The house is older, but who cares? Very well equipped & functional kitchen; in fact, everything works well. This was our 7th year @ Lake Lure in 6 different houses and Enchanted Cottage was probably the most fun. Hard to say why some houses have a "vibe" & some houses leave you cold. This one was perfect!

The pictures are true to what you get, and even better! When you walk in the front door and feel the cushy flooring and see the personal notes and amenities that are so welcoming, you know you've made the right choice. The bed and bedding is 5 star, and and so are the hosts.

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.

The Enchanted Cottage was a cozy getaway for our family. We were there in early April and the weather was perfect for taking the pontoon boat out and exploring the lake and fishing as well as kayaking, paddleboarding, and canoeing in the water. It was still too cold for swimming! The house and boat were just the right size for our group of four adults and three children without feeling too crowded.

You don't even have to drive anywhere if you don't want to and can still access the beach area with a kayak/canoe/paddleboard or the boat. It is literally minutes away on the water.
The house is comfortable, but be aware that this is an older home; more rustic than modern. read less

This place is a gem! Fairly priced and you couldn’t dream of a better location. The host was very communicative and made check-in and out very easy. Bed was super comfortable, kitchen with full size fridge, loved the balcony. It’s way cuter in real life too! Don’t hesitate to book this place — we will gladly stay here again when visiting!

Lovely amenities, great location, cozy and comfortable!!

Great place, close to everything

That house is something else! The view from the terrace is amazing! We did a few day trip and were 100% satisfied with the place! Last day the temperature dropped and fireplace saved our evening from freezing!
Recommend as a nice and cozy place!

Great place and great location!!

Slice of heaven!

Great place and very accessible to West Asheville!

The place was perfect! In the heart of everything as well as clean and nicely decorated. The water bottle and wine was such a lovely gesture and really left an impression on us. We will make sure to book again during our next visit.

Great host & place exactly as described, just know that the area has a high level of homelessness

great location close to Asheville, 12-15 minutes from nearly everything in or around downtown. spacious house, especially the bedrooms with standing desks in it - that room could basically fit another bed. Beds were comfortable with foam mattresses & night stand lamps had convenient outlets and USB plugs. Internet was good at ~60Mbps download/8Mbps upload with consistent speeds around the house. while we didn't use the fire pit itself, the backyard area and fire pit area was a nice retreat.

Disappointing Very dirty, with a lot of dust all over and there were rats inside the property.

New construction Close to all downtown Asheville activities.

Great location to explore everything Asheville has to offer. Easy access to highway as well as a short driving distance to Asheville downtown and south slope breweries. Multiple breweries and restaurants within walking distance. We walked to New Belgium brewery and Urban Cider from here. Tons of great hiking trails off Blue Ridge Parkway as well as nearby AT trails within an hour drive. Extremely private with awesome communication with our host.

This is a beautiful property that was extremely clean and stylishly furnished with comfortable furnishings. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of dishes, glasses/cups, cooking tools, serving pieces as well as basic supplies/spices/paper towels/dishwashing/laundry and cleaning products which is nice and not the norm.

Great location! Very secure and clean spot. Within walking distance to quite a few brewery’s and bars. Would stay again 100%

Asheville with Family The location of this property was perfect for our trip. It was just 5 minutes from the Biltmore Estate and the freeway to the Blue Ridge Mountains where we went hiking. Our family was still social distancing, but if we were interested in going into bars/restaurants/retail shopping, there was plenty of that within walking distance. The condo was clean and well appointed and we received all the information needed in advance to insure our trip went smoothly. I loved this place and would definitely stay again!

Asheville by day and Wilder Nest by night! We loved the serenity at this rental. We started and ended our days on the beautiful deck. Whistlehop Brewery was a wonderful stop that was close (great for kids too). It's a windy 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, but we felt it was a nice contrast to our days in the city.

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.

Bruce's place is immaculate. He will be ready to text you with any information you need about the area. You're also central to the hottest spots in town with dozens of bars and restaurants a quick stroll around the corner. Even though the place itself is across from a bus station with lots of people coming and going, we felt safe the whole time.

Great Location! Beautiful property within walking distance to downtown. Grocery delivery and food delivery was very easy.

Great stay Perfect place for a couple for a weekend in the mountains

Weekend Tennis Tournament Great location, close to downtown, modern, clean, spacious home…and the owners made access so quick & easy.

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.

We loved our stay here. The location was amazing, parking was a breeze, and there are also plenty of fun bars, breweries, restaurants, and shops within walking distance. Highly recommended!

Bruce communicated very well. Absolutely great location. We will definitely be visiting again.

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.

Had a great stay at Wildernest! They had a pack and play and high chair for my littlest who got to stay there as her first vacation!

We had a great stay at Mike’s place. It was in such a convenient location and we could walk to a lot of places. Would definitely come back!

Great stay at West Nest! good attractions in the area and not very far from downtown for adventures!

Try Pizza Mind we were regulars there for our stay, and take the new Belgium brewery tour (even if you don't like beer like me it was so fun)

Great hospitality from Mike and a great space to stay at! We will be back when we visit Asheville again!

Nice getaway Felt bigger than the square footage reads. The screened porch was a great addition for space, relaxing and eating. Kitchen was well stocked with a few nice addition- a pinch of sugar, oil, salt/pepper and a few spices. Host was quick to respond before/during stay. Quiet cove on the lake.

Perfect House was a perfect location for an annual family trip. Views, entertainment areas, additional sleeping areas and of course, the boat, made for a perfect spring trip! I would recommend this property, as well as Banjoe Vacations to anyone!!

5 Stars through and through. Highly Recommended!!!

Great quick weekend stay. Location is terrific. Cute shops and restaurants nearby, and a quick Lyft to downtown.

Loved my stay at the nest. Such an ideal West AVL location while still feeling super private. The porch was heaven on nice sunny days.

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!

Clean and convenient. Walkable to many Asheville breweries.

Great location. Lovely home with a stylish and modern décor. Will be back.

Nice/ modern decor and finishes and super clean!

Perfect West Asheville getaway We had a great stay at this property. The location was quiet, tucked away off the street, and had plenty of parking. And being able to walk to some of the best restaurants and bars in town was a nice bonus! The apartment itself was impeccably clean and stocked with everything you could need for a stay. I loved the little touches as well- the bed was very comfy, and the space was thoughtfully decorated. We’d be happy to come back for future trips.

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

This little hideaway was great for our stay in Asheville. It was conveniently located near many attractions in the area. There were a ton of places to see and eat at on the very road this apartment is located which we loved. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we were grateful for all of Mike's personal recommendations for places to go, restaurants to try and things to do in the area. Would recommend staying here!

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

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.

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!!

Comfortable with great amenities Cute and clean condo in downtown Asheville. Walking distance to almost everything! Great amenities. Only downside is the number of homeless that hang out near the building. A little unsettling.

Loved our stay here! Especially appreciated Mike leaving a great bottle of wine to enjoy--very thoughtful! Great location in West Asheville, lots to explore. As others have said, the bed is very comfortable. We loved our stay--a cozy, home away from home! Very clean! Highly recommend staying here!

Bruce was a wonderful host and his condo was perfect. Great location, spacious and clean. Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay!

Stayed at Bruce’s apartment for a Bachelor party and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Very spacious and close proximity to downtown and South Slope. It was extremely up to date and clean. Beds were super comfy.

great spot

What a delightful stay. The condo is beautiful, with lots of small, thoughtful touches that make you feel at home. It was wonderful to park the car and be able to walk quickly to all of our favorite places in Asheville. The beds are very comfortable and the condo is very safe and quiet. We will definitely stay here again.

Great place!

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.

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.

Very clean and comfortable space in an area where you can walk to restaurants and shops. Mike was a great host!

Very good house and Bruce was very helpful.

The condo was fabulous! It was clean, fresh, and well decorated ... just like the photos. The condo is in a great location, in walking distance to several great spots, and we barely heard the lumber yard even thought we stayed during the week. The bed was super comfy, and Mike was incredibly hospitable. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend!

Great location to walk everywhere. Great to have a private parking space. Bruce was super fast with communication. Overall great experience!

We loved our stay at Stephanie’s place! It was adorable and perfect for two people who want to explore Asheville. It was about 10 minutes from the downtown area which was great. We would definitely stay at Stephanie’s place again!

Great Time at Lake Lure We had a wonderful time at the Enchanted Cottage! We have stayed there before and it is our favorite spot on the lake. It has all the supplies and essentials you need in a gorgeous setting. We enjoyed the house, the boat, the lake....and the funicular was a real treat!

This home is inspirational! Quiet, breathtaking views, and immaculate inside. The hosts were responsive and accommodating. The beds were soooo comfortable!

Loved our stay at West Nest! Clean, well stocked and conveniently located to town. Walkable to breweries and restaurants down the street. The bed is very comfortable. Check in was very easy and Bruce is very easy to get in touch with. Highly recommend this lovely apartment! Thank you Bruce for a great stay!

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.

Beautiful place! Great for large groups! The house was lovely and very spacious! We had 9 people here and there was plenty of space for everyone and all the beds weren't even used.
The tram is a lifesaver and location was great. Not a long drive down the mountain to get to the town of Lake Lure and Chimney Rock.

Great spot with a convenient location

Outstanding view! We've been going to lake lure for several years, each time staying at a different house. This property was by far our favorite. Plenty of room, a nice boat. The tram is essential, allowing seniors to get to the house without the use of stairs. The location is close to the marina and restaurants as well as Chimney Rock.

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!

Great House and Great Location The house has everything you need and the view is even better in person than the pictures. The pontoon is an awesome bonus!

Our second time staying here. Needless to say, we love the place. Location can’t be beat and the bed is super comfy. Thanks again!

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.

Bruce was very communicative and quick to respond. He was a great host! The condo was very spacious and clean. The location was perfect - right in downtown and a 5 min drive from the Biltmore.

Stylish, well-appointed space in a perfect location.

Amazingly clean and well kept property. Good

Bruce’s condo was better than we expected. Everything was brand new. Great touches on furniture. Great modern bathrooms,kitchen and appliances.

Location very convenient to restaurants and bars. Parking garage was very nice too. Very comfortable and spacious for 4 people.

We really enjoyed our stay at Bruce’s place. We found the space exactly as described by Bruce’s listing and really appreciated the outdoor balcony space and proximity to the RAD and the excellent local West Asheville spots

Jeremy’s place was amazing!! The view was so gorgeous and we had a great time. The house was very clean and the beds were super comfortable! We will definitely be staying here again! Can’t recommend this place enough

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.

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

We traveled to Asheville to celebrate my birthday and loved staying at the West Nest. It’s in an ideal location and within walking distance to some great restaurants. It was a very short drive downtown and to the Biltmore Estate. The place is decorated nicely and the bed is sooo comfortable! Mike is a great host who responded quickly to my messages and provided some great recommendations. The bottle of wine was also a nice touch! We can’t wait to return to the West Nest next time we are in Asheville.

The place was really well designed with thoughtful touches that made it a great place to stay. Easily accessible to restaurants and breweries, and Mike gives great recommendations on places to go. He even gave us a bottle of wine to enjoy on the porch as we watched the sun set. So lovely, highly recommend!

Great location. Very clean. Great communication. We had a lovely stay

One of the best! This is a very well appointed property. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. It’s a terrific location-so walkable. We’d stay again

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.

Great condo....clean....well located. Bruce was very helpful. Highly recommend.

We loved our time at West Nest. East-West Asheville is a quickly growing part of town and West Nest is right in the thick of it. Also very convenient to all your wood purchasing needs. 🙂

Great spot, if we are ever in AVL again we will look for a spot here

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 Wonderfull

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.

A clean comfy air bnb that sleeps 8 very comfortably.

Spacious and beautiful with an amazing view!! Quick response time and great hospitality. Wished we had a couple more days to enjoy all the area and house offered!! Great house to enjoy with family and friends!

We loved the view in this great space and place. Thanks Bruce and Jo for being such fantastic hosts!

Wonderful lake house. Perfect place to spend family time and enjoy nature. Great host and very clean accommodation.

Beautiful and Relaxing You won’t find a better view and location in Lake Lure. The Enchanted Cottage is an ideal getaway but very easy to get to restaurants, grocery, and the surrounding area. Crew teams practiced on the lake which was a lot of fun. Wifi is strong and Bruce is always responsive should you have any questions. My small children loved the place too. And there is even a guitar to boot, so what’s not to like? We would return in a heartbeat.

This location was beautiful as advertised- my friends and I had a great stay here. We enjoyed the quiet of the mountains with the fun of doing day trips in Asheville

AVL Conveniently located to downtown Asheville. The condo had plenty of room and was very comfortable. Secure parking.

I can't say enough good things about this place! I absolutely loved my stay here. The location is convenient to everything in Asheville, parking is right there outside your door & the neighborhood is lovely & safe, I felt very secure here. The interior is beautiful & high end while still feeling comfortable & cozy. The bedding and bathroom are super-luxurious, as are all the materials & furnishings used through-out. I loved the little notes on the wall for each room, with all the necessary info to know...this made it so much easier to know and ... read moreI can't say enough good things about this place!

What I love about this place & these hosts are that they really seem to have put themselves in the shoes of their guests, and have anticipated every need. They obviously have put in a lot of time to create an easy & enjoyable guest experience, and it really shows through. It was such a comfortable, amazing stay - I am so impressed & I would love to return soon as possible! read less

We had a wonderful time at Stephanie's place. It was super clean, she was a great communicator, and it was a very quiet place. We'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

Everything was good good

Everything was nice and perfect for our time in Asheville for a family reunion.

Nice place

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!

Great stay! Location and house amenities were really nice! House has very clean with everything we needed to have a nice, relaxing stay for our girls trip weekend. Will book again!!
