About Janis Kaye

I am Janis and for many years, prior to my husband’s passing, it was our goal to own and operate a guest cottage in beautiful Asheville, NC. I am fulfilling this dream as he would have wanted. My love of nature and the beauty to be found in Asheville is a constant source of discovery for me and as my eyes are opened to the beauty that surrounds the cottage, it excites me to be able to offer visitors first hand information on the endless sites in store for them. I am here to make your trip a memorable one and to offer everything I can to help you achieve that. “Your Complete Satisfaction is my #1 Goal!”

Janis Kaye purchased this cottage in 2006
Why Janis Kaye chose Asheville

I actually didn’t choose Asheville but rather married into it so to speak. My husband owned a home in Asheville and lived in it for a short time off and on. When we married we moved to Orlando, FL and the house remained unoccupied except for an occasional renter. In 2000 we decided to completely restore the home and after renting it for a few years we decided to sell our home in Orlando and relocate full time to the property in Asheville, a move we never regretted. As luck would have it the home next door to us was for sale and we viewed that as the perfect opportunity to be able to offer a very special “home away from home” for our guests. We bought it and completely refurbished it. Living next door affords me the ability to quickly and efficiently meet all the needs of my guests. My dream has come true so why not come to beautiful Asheville and let me help make your stay one that you will fondly remember.

What makes this cottage unique

It's on a very short dead end street with very few neighbors so no busy road so it has the country feel but is within the city limits and close to everything. Biltmore Village, Estates, Downtown Asheville, Antiquing and other great shopping, Great Restaurants, About 6 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Mall just to name a few.

Beautiful Property, Fully Equipped, Close to Downtown Asheville, Accommodating Owner!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 10, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
My best friend and I stayed at Janis' cottage over Memorial Day Weekend, and we were not disappointed. The cottage is located on a dead-end street only a mile from the Biltmore, so it is quiet, but convenient. The cottage itself is fully equipped with all kitchen appliances, a grill, washer and dryer, etc. We almost didn't want to leave to go experience the city. Janis has thought of everything. At the end of the stay, she asked us not to clean up much because we were on vacation. Janis greeted us the first evening to ask how she could help us with our stay. She provides a "black book" with hundreds of restaurant menus, hikes, and excursions. She is also extremely knowledgable about the area. It was like having our own personal tour guide. The house is clean, bright, and comfortable. I have stayed many places, but Janis' cottage is among the finest.

Janis,



Your cottage and lovely gardens were the perfect escape from all the wedding hoopla. So peaceful and relaxing….and an early taste of summer for us. It’s been so nice to be back in Asheville and enjoying the beautiful lush spring around the cottage We loved being here again while we celebrated with family and explored this wonderful city and the mountains. I know we’ll be back again.



All the best to you and hope that ankle is better soon!



Thank you so much,

Keith and Edite

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your home away from home. It was so clean and equipped with everything we needed including the Wi-Fi. We loved visiting Asheville and The Biltmore Estate. What a treat it was to have “afternoon tea” in the Library at the Biltmore Inn. The food tour we took downtown was excellent! Thanks for being such a thoughtful host. Maybe we’ll see you again someday. We want to come back to shop again at the Screen Door! Loved that place! Sue
Thank you for your warm and friendly hospitality, Janis! Thank you for showing us the “before” pictures of your home. What an amazing accomplishment for which you should be incredibly proud!! Marcie

My daughter and I had an awesome time here. The cottage was a perfect place to stay and see everything. It had all the comforts of home and much more! It was equipped with everything that you
could possibly need.
Thank you, Janis, for all your help and extra touches in your cottage. It’s so peaceful and beautiful here. Hope to come back in the fall with my husband.
