What a great place to stay! The cottage is located very close to the downtown area...definitely within walking distance. Trade & Lore is a great coffee shop...especially if you just want to hang out for a while. We spent a couple of hours at Fired Up Creative Lounge making pottery and other creations...very fun and relaxing. The cottage itself was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The beds were super comfy and we appreciated having two full bathrooms. This was our first trip to Asheville and if we ever come back this is DEFINITELY the place that we'll stay again. Thanks to Carly for helping make this a great experience! : )
