The Farmhouse was beautiful and we got a lot of use out of the massive and comfortable front porch, watching some summer rain storms. We had a lovely stay!

We loved our Christmas here with our adult children and their partners. We were able to spread out and enjoy different activities like cookie decorating and board games. Already considering booking next year

Loved the space; loved getting some idea of the history of Moog. We walked to the popular Farmer’s Market and there’s good food and custard ice cream within walking distance on Merriman. Biggest forest of paw paw trees in the back! Amazing to see.

My friends and I came to town as we all turn 40 in the near future. We had an excellent time exploring Asheville and it was super easy to get everywhere we wanted to from the house. The house itself was great as we had enough room to spread out and space to gather together when we wanted to hang out and enjoy the company. Would book again!

Came to watch our son run in the marathon. Perfect for our family of 8. Away from the busiest areas but quick to get places afterwards.

We had a wonderful time staying in the Moog farmhouse. Easy access to all our activities. The beds were super comfortable and we had everything we need. Ben was amazing and very responsive to our inquiries. Our only surprise was there’s a tenant upstairs and downstairs. I probably just missed that on the listing.

The property is close to grocery shopping and downtown. It is good value for the money. Lighting in the kitchen is a bit dim, making it a little hard on these old eyes.

The farmhouse was a perfect retreat for Yankees visiting to ride bikes up Mount Mitchell. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the AC units were fabulous. The wildlife visiting the property was such fun to watch! The turkeys were hilarious hanging out in the trees, and a bear strolled by on the road one morning! The host was an excellent communicator through the process and we all enjoyed our stay very much. Heads up for folks visiting from flat areas--the steep curvy driveway to the farmhouse was daunting the first time down, but you learn pretty quickly how to navigate the terrain.

The house was in need of some work..I swept the porch and cleaned off the outside furniture and the top of the porch rail that had marine from other peoples cups etc...I really did not like opening the bathroom cabinets and finding I guess whatever other guests had left in the cabinets. The drain did work in the bathroom sink..we tried to tape up the front of the kitchen sink but that whole cabinet needs some work,,I did not want to put this online but I guess I expected much more for the money. That being said our party was great and the location was very good for us.

Check-in was easy. The property is in a woodsy area and slightly difficult to locate but it is worth the trouble because it feels secluded and the views are gorgeous with equally lovely walking and running trails nearby. The bedrooms were comfortable and we all slept well. The kitchen was well-stocked with appliances and eating utensils and it was immaculate. It was over 90• while we were there but the front porch was shaded and comfortable and the a/c did an excellent job cooling the house. Not within walking distance of downtown but the drive is an easy 10 minutes. My group of active women aged 40-75 had a great time and would happily stay at the Moog House again.

We had a girls weekend in Asheville and picked this house for the size and location. The location was perfect for everything we did. The house had 4 nice sized bedrooms. The house was very clean. We had a snafu with our arrival instructions but the owner jumped right on it once he realized there was an issue. We will definitely book this home again.

We enjoyed our stay in Asheville. The house was comfortable and clean and well located. I missed in the description that there were other tenants in the house, but they were quiet and didn't impact our stay at all. We had a great time visiting with family.

Excellent location to downtown Asheville for brewery hopping, concerts, restaurants. It’s hard to find a house with 4 master bedrooms that’s not super expensive. Only two full baths but we made it work. Great time!

Good location, beautiful area, close to town and freeways. It is an old refurbished farmhouse, clean but a little quirky.

We had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful and fully stocked. All the beds were comfortable and the location was great! My son, 28, felt someone lightly grab his thigh in the middle of the night. Bill? Lol

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home! The property was well-maintained, it included everything we could need on our trip, and the house was a short drive from everything we wanted to do. The owner, Ben, was so responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

My family has a great stay. The property is big and feels secluded. The front porch is also large and is a great place to spend time especially when it rains. The living areas felt spacious enough for our family to spend time together. The kitchen was well appointed and we were easily able to cook large dinners for our family. Quick response from Ben, the property manager, when we ran out of toilet paper. He sent it over via Uber and it arrived in 15 minutes.

My friends and I loved everything about this place. It was beautiful, lots of books everywhere, gorgeous two-story greenhouse. And since we love to cook we were also quite impressed with the cooking oils and spices on hand. Great place all around and we were sorry to leave.

We enjoyed our stay at the wild turkeys we're a bonus. We wish there was more to sit on than just the swing on the front porch. There were 6 adults and nowhere to sit
