We just left an awesome time in Asheville. Stacy's place is a perfect home-base offering a quiet, authentic alternative to the bustling downtown. Historic Biltmore estate and winery is a 15 min drive; hiking is all around and downtown is a 10 min drive. There are many well known and amazing west Asheville eateries within walking distance! I highly recommend the purple door if you are planning a trip to Asheville.
