We enjoyed our stay in Asheville, taking much that the town and surrounding areas have to offer. The Oakley house presented a centralized location and was close enough to grocery stores, restaurants and the freeway.
The house is well laid out and was appointed with a smart television and nice appliances. The beds were comfortable too. I really appreciated the alarm and it was easy to use.
The neighbors were pleasant when we ran into each other.
A few suggestions for travelers. For grocereries, visit the Trader Joe's and Harris Teeters up on Merrimon Ave. The stores are clean and people nice. If you'd like a good sandwitch in a quirky shop, head to Loretta's. Take in some of the local farmers markets too. We found the one in nearby Haw Creek on Friday afternoons to be very good. Take the time to head south to the DuPont Forest and visit the land of waterfalls - Hooker Falls, Triple Falls, High Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. Also, head over to Chimney Rock for a hike and Lake Lure - make sure to visit the flowering bridge. The immensly beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway is just a skip away and the Great Smokey Mountain National Park is a short day trip too.
