Came to visit some hurricane victims my husband and I had helped to celebrate the 4th with. This home was charming cute and clean. Filled with all the necessities for a comfortable stay. Quiet neighborhood just outside of downtown black mountain. Will absolutely stay again when we return. Host was great and quick to communicate. Highly recommend if passing through.
