We had a wonderful stay at Julia's studio. We stayed for 5 nights and it was perfect for us. Julia has designed the living space in a way that gives her guests plenty of room. It was also very clean, and the bed was super comfortable. A nice little kitchen allowed us to make our own breakfasts in the mornings which was a nice time/money saver. It's a 15 minute drive into downtown and not much farther to West Asheville, where we spent a lot of time, and we never minded the drive back in the evenings. We actually were happy to be able to escape back to her property because it's so peaceful. The goats were cute and her dog, Milo, was always happy to see us. Julia was an excellent host - gave us complete privacy and yet we knew she was there if we needed something. We would definitely stay there again.
