My wife and I celebrated her 35th birthday with our first trip to Asheville for a long weekend. We arrived at Gashes Fluss Haus around 7:30pm and without giving Paul advanced notice on when we would be arriving Paul greeted us as soon as we got out of the car. That was the first and last interaction we had with Paul which was just fine because the Haus had everything we needed and we were out exploring Asheville from morning until night. The location was good in relationship to the downtown spots. Only about 10 mins from almost everything. The bed was very comfortable and with all the fresh air we got we slept great. Highlights of the trip included hiking the Black Balsam Knob to Tennant Mt. loop, Sliding Rock (a 60-foot rock water slide in a 55F stream), Burial Brewing Co, Biscuit Head, and Curate. A couple things to note about the Haus 1) Take your time going down the stairs. They are not a standard width tread (narrow) and are awkward to walk down. 2) The ceiling height upstairs has to be about 6' 2". I am about 6' 0" and standing on my tip-toes my head would hit the ceiling. It wasn't much of an issue for me (though my wife caught me several times hunching over in fear I might hit my head), but for someone taller it could be a nuisance. Overall it was a great place to stay for our long weekend in Asheville.
