Not only were the pictures beautiful, but he and his wife were so easy to work with and such a true pleasure to be around. We loved the work so much, we booked Ryan for my bridal portraits & our wedding day! Ryan has an amazing eye for some beautiful shots & we are so beyond pleased with the outcome. We could not have picked someone better to photograph our special day, we are truly grateful for Ryan and the beautiful work we get to admire for the rest of our lives! My husband and I absolutely loved working with Ryan.

After several years of successful rentals with another company, we decided to explore other options…read moreto boost our rental numbers. In early 2024 we contacted Eve, "the cabin fairy" to investigate other options. She visited our home, said it was great and convinced us to sign a contract with her firm. She indicated she had many customers in the southeast that she would contact directly to secure rentals. She also offered us a management fee of 20% of rental income. Unfortunately, that was the end of the positive relationship. After only a handful of rentals during the summer months, she suggested we try a 6 or 12 month long term rental. We agreed and after reviewing the contract she offered for such rental, we reached out with a couple of questions. Her response was rude and very negative. She stated that she was too busy to deal with such questions and if we could not accept the contract as is, we would have to stick with short term rentals. While she offered a 20% fee for rental management, each month the costs were more like 30% or 40% after numerous deductions for visits to our home, from "handyman services" and an assortment of other charges. Whenever we questioned what the charges represented, our questions were either not answered or represented as "the cost of doing business." On one occasion, I received a call from our security system indicating that someone had entered the property and failed to shut off the alarm. When I tried and failed to reach Eve, the security people sent the police to our home. When I finally reached Eve, rather than shutting off the alarm system, she demanded that I disengage the alarm remotely. When we experienced some plumbing issues in one off our toilets, rather than sending her own handyman to address the problem, she told me to send my own person to fix it. Finally in August I received an email from her indicating that she would no longer manage our property due to its "many needs," with only two weeks notice. Rather than removing our listing on rental sites such as AirBnb,, she told me that her listings were in my name and that I needed to remove them. Unfortunately, before I figured out how to change the listing, several people rented my property on my new management company and the Cabin Fairy sites, resulting in four double bookings for the same dates. Had she passed on the emails for bookings that she received, I could have avoided a very embarrassing transition experience. Her partner was very helpful in passing on contact information for the bookings the Cabin Fairy received, but I had to spend hours trying to secure bookings for the people we could. In conclusion, we found the "cabin fairy" to be difficult to work with and not very customer friendly or professional in her dealings with us. More importantly, she did not deliver on her promise to increase our rentals. Our new management team has secured more rentals in a month than the "fairy" did in almost a year. So disappointing.

The cabin itself was absolutely lovely -- we adored the home, and this review is not a reflection…read moreof the property itself. Unfortunately, our experience with the property management company, The Cabin Fairy, was extremely disappointing. On our last night, we lost water completely. I reached out to maintenance well before 8 PM and received no reply. I then wrote to the main number and was told: "We will alert the maintenance team. Don't know how fast they can get out there today, but we will try." With six people in the home, including three children, we had no water to drink, flush toilets, or wash hands. We didn't have to cut our trip short since we were checking out in the morning, but the night was extremely uncomfortable. In a situation like this, I would have expected management to step in -- even bringing bottled water, checking on us directly, or arranging an emergency plumber. Instead, we were brushed off, told "utilities are temperamental in the mountains," and essentially blamed for the timing (a holiday weekend). The following morning, we had to reach out ourselves to ask for updates, and only then did we receive another dismissive response. After requesting a refund for that night, our message was ignored. Guests deserve better treatment than being left stranded without a basic necessity. I hope homeowners take note of this review -- the property is beautiful, but guests should be aware of how poorly The Cabin Fairy handles emergencies.

She also kicked out three trans women from a house in Asheville which is not a good look no matter the circumstance. Her only saving grace is that she gave us two months extra to find a new place as the market was horrible. Now is she part of the reason why the market was horrible? I don't know, maybe you can ask the $650 rent increase to the new listing price she posted on the same house.

They should have stayed in Florida. They don't understand HIPPA laws. They don't understand the Americans with disabilities act. They bullied other neighbours into leaving the neighbourhood.

Feel free to reach out I would love to go into further detail with whoever may need extra information Edit to my edit. The owners have responded assuming that I live in an apartment. Laughable to be honest. They know exactly who I am. Keep playing dumb. Our board/community fired them due to their mismanagement.

My husband and I were first time home buyers new to Asheville. We didn't know anyone out here, so…read morewe asked our mortgage loan officer for agent recommendations and chose Nick Hinton out of the bunch after seeing some great reviews for him online. Judging from my own experience, those reviews were well deserved! Nick and his assistant Renée were invaluable to our search. They were prompt and patient, responding to our questions and concerns as people new to the process, and it was clear they were experts. He was also quick to show up for viewings, which put us at ease. Nick came through with excellent recommendations for specialists when it came time for inspections, and a contractor who could answer some questions we had about modifying the property we hoped to purchase. The people here are also great to work with. When you talk to them, you feel they really care about making sure you find a house or property that checks the boxes and one that makes you happy. And when it came time to make the bid, we followed Nick's advice and landed our dream home in this wild and competitive market. We're glad Nick is committed to not just building but maintaining relationships with his clients because he really is a priceless resource!

I had received quotes from several other competitors that were unbelievably ridiculous and way over priced for the job at hand. But Chandler Mountain Surveyors prices were at level and extremely fair. They also quoted a reasonable timeline and stayed on point. There were no unexpected delays even with some really rainy conditions that happened during our two-week project. Both owner and wife team were pleasant people to talk to and work with. Kaylyn in the office always called me back if I left a massage. She helped work with me on our property deadlines by overnighting the maps and keeping me abreast of the timeline. The owner made it a point to inform the neighbors around the property that they would be around during this process as well. I thought this was wonderfully thoughtful. And the overall survey work was professional and well done. I will be coming back to Chandler Mountain Surveyors for any and all of my future surveying needs and you should too.
