The stay was a unique experience. I loved the Bohemian/ rustic decor. The screened porch adjacent to the woods are a and open yard was very serene and pleasant. The shanty is close to everything yet gives a sense of woodsy seclusion. Karl had provided new pillows. I found the bed was very comfortable. Firm but with the foam topper just right for me. The internet connection was fast and I liked having covered parking adjacent to the entrance. I felt safe and welcomed. The shanty is a good value for Asheville. If recommend it to anyone wanting a different experience aside the hotels.
