My parents, my husband, our teenager and our elderly dog arrived to a very unique house! The house was immaculate and the style and architecture were quite interesting; mid-century with a modern twist. The art throughout is whimsical and quite fun. Most of the artists are local and I saw much of their work at Woolworth Walk. I recommend you read the Welcome book cover to cover, as everything is explained in there, like “hidden” drawers where the hot pads are. Honestly, we tried using the fireplace per the directions given, but that didn’t work out too well and we had to open all the windows to get the smoke out of the house (and to get the smoke alarm to turn off). I had constant communication with Kate and she was very responsive to any questions I had before our stay. The beds are SUPER comfortable and we had a great time. From the house it is about 15 minutes to downtown Asheville and even closer to the BlueRidge Parkway. The road up here is quite steep, so be prepared! I would love to come back one day for a girls weekend!
