Joanna's place was great. It was a ten minute drive to both downtown Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. There was a nice porch to sit on, cozy living room, and the beds were very comfortable. I also appreciated the posted directions in the house as well as the flyers for things to do. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and dark so it's very relaxing. I'd highly recommend this place, especially if you plan on doing some hiking.
