Karen's tiny house is a quick drive into downtown and from there, the world is your oyster! Tons of brewery's and places to eat...we loved eating at Buxton Hall BBQ , Chestnut and Funkatorium was our favorite brewery. The house was nestled in a quiet area and was very relaxing. If you wanted a cup of coffee in the morning (aside from inside the house) there is a cute coffee shop right down the hill. We also were able to hike a little up the Blue Ridge Parkway but definitely would like to come back and explore more. Great host, great house, and a great location!
