We had a lovely stay at the Orange Oasis just after Christmas. We were visiting family in Haw Creek and Kim's place was perfect for two teenage daughters and myself---I'm an early riser; the kids could sleep in, and much, much more economical than two hotel rooms. The apartment provided all of the comforts of home, and the East Asheville location is a major selling point: 5 minutes to the Folk Art Museum on the Blue Ridge Parkway, a few minutes walk to hiking trails, 5 minutes to the mall area (a showing of Little Women was imperative), and 10 minutes to downtown or West Asheville for the Farmer's Market. Kim was immediately responsive to any questions we had, and she was very accommodating in helping us reclaim a sweatshirt that we left there. Will definitely plan on staying with her again!
