Valerie was an incredibly accommodating host. Before I even arrived, she had given me the option of bringing my dog and was willing to help me find a pet sitter for when I was at the workshops I was attending in Asheville. I ended up making other arrangements for the dog, but when the Delta variant made all of the workshops virtual, but I still needed to be in Asheville to focus on the work, Valerie made sure I could do everything I needed to online from the apartment. I arrived at 10 pm instead of my hopes for 7:00 pm and Valerie stayed up just to make sure I had what I needed. The apartment is very spacious, clean, and comfortable. There’s a full kitchen which was great since I ended up needing to work long days that gave little time for venturing out. It’s less than 15 minutes to downtown Asheville and the property is in a very picturesque community with beautiful Mountain View’s.
