Karen was an excellent hostess! Her home is exactly what a girlfriend & I needed while visiting Asheville! She gave us a phone call early in the week to welcome us even before we arrived in town. Her special touches with breakfast items, beverages, bathroom necessities, etc were so extra appreciated. She advised us on restaurant must go to, and provided pamphlets with many ideas of things to visit, see & do in Asheville. We hope to come back to Karen’s again & are recommending Karen’s place to others!
