Excellent winter holiday!

We stayed for a Christmas holiday in Asheville. We rented both upper and lower Berne. We took our three dogs. The units are great for family and dogs. Upper unit has two bedrooms, 1 bath and enough family room seating for five. Dinner table can sit six. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, spices etc. we have never had such a well stocked kitchen - thank you! Also set up well for dogs with a fuzzy bed, small water bowls and treats. This unit has the upstairs deck that is gated and safe for pups. Also a small deck off the dining room. There is a sloped walkway downstairs to parking and the entrance of the lower unit. Lower unit is a small one-bedroom apartment. Again well stocked. This one does not have a dishwasher. Or washer/dryer. Both are located upstairs. Again small water bowl and dog towels. This unit has a side screened in patio that leads to the fenced in space for dogs. Big enough and perfect to let the pups out for a potty break. The location is about 20 mins to Biltmore and less than 10 to the downtown area. Excellent location. Clean. Super well stocked. Enough closet space. Robes. They really do all the nice touches to make it an enjoyable stay. We were there for Christmas and the tree was up and lots of lovely decorations. Thank you! Highly recommend!

Great place for Family Get Together

This property worked out great for us. My eldest daughter brought her to mid-size dogs and stayed on the bottom level while the rest of us were upstairs. It was easy for us to move between the two levels. The location was also convenient - close to downtown, restaurants, et al.

About the host

Hosted by Judy Glicken

We are Ruben and Judy. Both New Yorkers, we moved to Asheville in ’98 to escape the brutal winters and busy lifestyle. As it turns out, the move went smashingly, but getting away from our busy lifestyle… not so much! Since 2002 we have managed to acquire 11 vacation rentals and open four busy bakery and cafes!

Feeding people and entertaining is one of our joys since the New York days, so all chalet guests will receive fresh-baked goodies and a gift certificate to Well-Bred Bakery & Café upon arrival. Well-Bred Luxury Lodgings f/k/a Asheville Swiss Chalets, is founded on a belief in great hospitality – we want to give people a memorable home-away-from-home experience while visiting Western North Carolina.

Being a cook myself, I wanted to make sure our guests have a fully stocked kitchen—so you’ll have access to great quality pots and pans, utensils, plus a fully stocked pantry. And don’t worry about leaving behind your four-legged family members. We see to it that yours are well provided for!

What makes this property unique

All of our vacation rentals are created for pets and their people!
There is a big difference between allowing pets in a vacation rental and designing a rental specifically with your four-legged friends in mind. At Well-Bred Luxury Lodgings f/k/a Asheville Swiss Chalets, we carefully consider everything that even the most particular pup could want. These features include pet blankets, tasty doggie treats, and safe outdoor play areas.

But don’t worry; we also have an exceptional stay designed with you in mind. Each rental is conveniently located in the Asheville or Weaverville area and includes all the modern conveniences, comfort, as well as outstanding guest service.
