I stayed at Valerie's studio for 6 weeks while working remotely, and was an excellent experience. Green Oaks is a wonderful little community with exceptionally friendly people, and I felt very welcome from the moment I arrived. The community is a 5-10 minute drive and about a $10 Uber from downtown AVL, and a stone-throw away from the French Broad River. The immediate area is home to some amazing coffee, breweries, food & parks, so I found myself heading downtown much less often that anticipated.
The studio itself is nice and clean with all of the essentials, but the majority of my time on the property I spent in the community garden area. It was a great place to do some work, feed the goats, or nap in a hammock.
Valerie was an amazing host, she was incredibly friendly and always made sure I had what I needed, while still respecting my privacy. I would highly recommend any of her listings, and would absolutely stay at the property again.
