Location, location, location!! Josh's property is conveniently located about 5 minutes from town, or roughly a $8 UBER/LYFT ride to central downtown. My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights and it was by far the most convenient place we have stayed in Asheville. Aside from being close, you also feel as though you are in the middle of nowhere, which was exactly what we were looking for. Josh was a great host and was very quick to reply to all of my questions before, during, and even after our stay. I gave 4 stars (wish I could give 4.5), only because we were forced to stay in one day due to bad weather and the living room furniture in the house is not comfortable. We made the best of the situation, I mean we were rained in in the mountains, but the comfort level was not where you would expect it. The beds and the rest of the house were comfortable and clean. I would highly recommend Josh's place for the proximity to downtown, but not if you are looking for a place to get away from it all and relax. For our purposes (shopping, dining, breweries) it was perfect, had the weather not changed our plans. Overall great location and clean home!
