8/10 Good

"The apartment was good for our stay. I like that it had 2 bathrooms. It could have been cleaner, my socks were brown after wakjinaround without shoes. If you have babies that crawl can you please take of your shoes inside people. It’s a good location close to good restaurants. Beware that the restaurant and pool is closed for an extended period ."

10/10 Excellent

"We were pleased with the overall cleanliness of the property. The room was spacious and breakfast was great. Staff were available to us and friendly."

North Lodge Bed & Breakfast

8/10 Good

"Delicious breakfast and lovely room and very clean. There were cobwebs and leaves stuck to them outside of all of our windows. There are no screens on the windows and our room was incredibly hot. It was very difficult to sleep. The owner warned us that it’s slightly warmer than some of the other rooms in the main house, but it was not slightly warmer. It was much warmer. They need to get separate units for those rooms The TV worked well on the evening that we were there but the morning that we were there, it would not work at all. Overall, a lovely bed-and-breakfast ferry, helpful owners, and good food. In a very desirable location in terms of reaching things in the Asheville area, but in a neighborhood, not walkable really."
