We chose Matthews place for a last minute weekend getaway. I was skeptical about staying in a place with the host on site, thought it a little creepy to be honest, but I could not have been more wrong. We had a great stay. Location is quiet. Leas than a 10 minute ride into downtown Asheville. Uber was easy to get to and from town. We had morning coffee while watching birds at the feeders off the back deck. Overall a great weekend.
