if youre visiting Asheville and want a quiet, yet convenient retreat, Joel's is perfect!! he was gracious and friendly while maintaining privacy. the downstairs to his home is very nice and exactly as pictured, with thoughtful touches everywhere from the easy code entry to the beautiful bathroom tile. we loved the remote feeling, sounds, and scenery of being up in the mountains, yet all the good restaurants and hip funkiness of downtown was a short 10-15 minute drive away. thank you for everything! would stay again :)
