Bluebirds Nest—10 min to town & Biltmore—sparkling well water—hot tub

Bluebirds Nest is a chic apartment perfect for two people. Its elegant and refined elements create a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

It is in a great location in the country yet only 10 minutes from downtown Asheville, the River Arts District, Biltmore Estate, West Asheville, UNCA, breweries, shopping, hiking, rafting, golf, falconry, biking and more.

Park right outside your own private entrance to this charming place.

This spacious and bright apartment includes many amenities to make you feel comfortable and at home. You have your own controls for heat and air. Everything is immaculate. All bed linens are washed in hot water and sheets are ironed for an unbelievably comfortable and crisp feel.

Soak in the hot tub while enjoying the starry sky. It’s located on an upper deck outside of the apartment and has an amazing view.

The hot tub may also be used by a couple who might be staying in Robins Nest, our other apartment near Bluebird’s Nest. An open/closed sign is flipped by occupants to insure privacy. The hot tub is located out of view by either apartment.

Suitable for two adults, Bluebirds Nest has a bedroom, sunroom, full bathroom with shower, and full kitchen. The many large windows provide views of the woods and meadows and a beautiful wooded and private disc golf course. You may see deer foraging, bluebirds nesting, white squirrels, raccoons, chipmunks, rabbits and pesky wild turkeys.

You will enjoy the peace and quiet, yet you have excellent free wi-fi, two large smart TV’s with premium channels.

This immaculate apartment is an open floor plan and rooms flow one to another, yet are separate and distinct areas. The bedroom is furnished with a queen bed, luxurious linens, an armoire for clothes with hangers and full length mirror, two country French bergere armchairs with footstools, a large smart TV, bookshelves with hiking and local interest books, a desk, alarm clock, luggage rack, and also a closet for clothes.

The white-tiled sparkling kitchen is complete with a full refrigerator, stove, microwave, cooktop and dishwasher.

A stocked coffee/tea station is provided. Muffins and ham and cheese sliders are provided so that you can relax and enjoy a peaceful morning before beginning your day. Lots of kitchen cabinets and two industrial book shelves hold ironstone dishes, glassware, pots and pans, coffee maker, toaster, ice bucket, picnic basket, and everything you need should you wish to prepare meals. Vintage and antique items belonging to my family are displayed. Some small grocery essentials for cooking, dishwashing supplies and linens are provided. Enjoy dining at the large Queen Ann table.

The sunroom is a wonderful place to relax with it’s glider rocker, loveseat, chair, side tables, and large TV. Take a nap in the afternoon sun or drop the solar shades to enjoy a cool sanctuary. A patio door allows a second entry to the outside areas.

The full bathroom is private and off of the living area and has a shower, sink, mirror, and commode. Fluffy towels, comfy robes, shampoo /soap /conditioner, a hair dryer, iron and ironing board are provided. Outside seating/dining areas are right outside your door—one sunny, one shaded. A grill is provided for those evenings you wish to stay in. A wood fire pit ready to light is a cozy treat on a chilly evening.

Hanging baskets and potted plants give you the sense of your own private courtyard. Perhaps you will hear the musical notes of a guitar or banjo in the distance. My neighbor is a musician and practices on his front porch across the woods.

We live beside a beautiful 18 hole private disc golf course. One is beginner friendly 4000 ft course and the other championship level 7700 ft.

Direct flights into AVL airport on Allegiant airlines from many cities including Las Vegas, New York, Orlando, Chicago, Denver, Minneapolis, and many more.

Days are blocked between reservations. The apartment is meticulously cleaned between guests.

Nest security camera is located outside and monitors both entrances.

We have a pumping system that pumps wastewater up to the septic lines in the front yard. You will hear it when it empties about once a day.

I am a beekeeper with three sweet hives in the front away from the apartments. They bother no one but occasionally like to drink from the birdbaths. They do not come out at night.

People from all backgrounds are welcome to stay in Bluebirds Nest.

Cameras are placed to view entrance and driveway only.

We also have another short term rental—Robins Nest. It will accommodate two people and you might want to keep that in mind if you travel with another couple or Bluebirds is booked.

Fantastic Spot

This is a perfect little nest. It’s close to everything without being on top of it. The apartment is so well appointed, it’s obvious Betty and John put a tremendous amount of thought into what people need and want away from home. My husband and I enjoyed our stay so much, I’m sure we will be going back.

Great Mini Vacation

We visited Ashville for my 40th birthday and could not have asked for a better place. The apartment was cute and had everything we needed. The hosts provided the perfect spot for a weekend getaway, but we could have stayed for a week. We feel fortunate to have found the Bluebird's Nest and definately recommend!

Everything about this property and our hosts was first class. Bet and John thought of everything their guests could possibly need, and supplied it with grace and tender loving care! The residence was immaculate, the property was gorgeous. The table was set when we got there, and the hot tub was warm and ready! Breakfasts were perfect, and snacks were abundant! Needless to say, our hosts were impeccable, and our only regret was that we couldn't spend more time with them! What a delightful getaway! We are so appreciative!

My family travels frequently and have used VRBO to book places for awhile now. This property was hands down our favorite.

Wonderful Time at The Blue Bird's Nest

The location of the Blue Bird's Nest was very convenient to Asheville as well as feeling like a quiet rural retreat. The full-kitchen was marvelous and the provided breakfast meals plentiful and healthy. Details of the space--design, character, super-soft towels, linens--were very luxurious. I had a wonderful time.

Spacious and Clean

The apartment was large, clean, and well appointed. We enjoyed the beautiful woods from our room and seeing the stars from the hot tub. The breakfast goodies were great and the hosts were gracious and responsive. Definitely a great place to get away from it all but also be close to all the Asheville area has to offer. Can’t recommend this place enough. Hope to be able to return.
