Better than pictured! We were just talking about how relaxed and at home we felt in the cottage. Really clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Alicia's provided all the amenities. Really appreciated the parking spot! Easy walk into the River Arts District to the galleries and restaurants and Wedge Brewery. (Note that there aren't sidewalks through all of RAD, so plan your footwear accordingly.) Short drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway and downtown. We had a great stay and definitely book here again if we're back in Asheville.
