Private 2 BR Home with Yard. 10 min to Downtown!
Overview: 17 Dove is a small 2-bedroom home just 10 minutes from downtown Asheville. The home features a fenced in yard and stellar views. The hot tub is no longer operational and will be removed on 11/10. We are weighing our options on purchasing a new one. Your also just 5 minutes from Haywood St in West Asheville and 30 minutes from great hiking. The home is small, but spacious and stylish with anything you may need for a relaxing vacation. Dogs under 30lbs are welcomed with an additional $50 fee per pet.
Guest Access: Guests have access to the entire 1.2 acres and entire home. The property is half wooded and half open lawn.
Interaction With Guests: We typically do not meet guests but are always available by phone.
Other Details: The property is right next to a horse pasture which houses 5-7 horses. They’re not our horses to interact with, but in our experience they’re friendly.
Neighborhood Description: The home sits atop a small hill on a gravel road. There are several houses on the gravel road including 17 Dove. The home is generally secluded from the other residents on the road.
Getting Around: Guests will need a vehicle to access the property. We do not advise walking anywhere from the home as the roads are busy without sidewalks.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Exactly what we were looking for! The property was perfect for our small breed dog: nicely secluded yet close to everything we needed. Very clean and comfortable. Austin was a great host who communicated quickly, even though we didn’t have any issues!

We were thrilled with the fenced yard for our English Springer Spaniel and the deck for our relaxation. We were close to everywhere we wanted to go. The home was very clean, which we appreciated. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed the view.

My friend and I totally enjoyed our stay there. Especially the cleanliness and the privacy. The deck overlooking the backyard, which was lovely for any pups that get to stay there, and also it he view of the mountains was incredible. The bedrooms were spacious and had adequate storage spaces, kitchen was fairly well equipped. We were a little confused at trying to get the door keys out of the lock box. Directions said something about a red button that we couldn’t find. But we eventually figured it out. Would definitely come back.

Please read the fine print. I reserved this home because of the hot tub, I missed the comment that said it wasn’t operational until October. The house was cute and convenient just really disappointed about the hot tub.

It was very easy to find the property and check in. The setting was lovely, very quiet and serene. The home all of the basics we needed for a short stay. I was a little dismayed at a musty smell when we walked in, though not uncommon in older homes and the climate in July is pretty steamy. The individual AC units worked fairly well, but had to run almost constantly. The doors to the bedrooms were sticky, sometimes challenging to open and close. I consider those minor details. My main issue was that one of the bedrooms was infested with fleas. I love that the home is pet friendly (we didn’t bring any pets) but that requires a certain level of cleaning after each stay involving an animal. It took me a couple of days to figure out what was going on (mosquitoes? Chiggers? Bed bugs??) so I sent a message the last day to which I received no reply. For that reason, I would not book here again. Things go awry, I understand that - but it is my expectation that if there is a real problem with the property, it will be acknowledged and addressed.

This house was exactly what we needed. Our pup loved the fenced in yard. The hot tub is well maintained, and exactly what we needed after a day of exploring. The house was clean and well maintained. The bed was comfortable. It was located so close to everything we needed.
