Julie’s place was located walking distance to a few restaurants and breweries and a very short drive to some more breweries along the river and to downtown Asheville. We didn’t get to meet Julie, but she was very quick to respond and left us with a list of recommendations and pamphlets of things to do, including trail maps. The area upstairs was perfect for us and separated from the downstairs area. The downstairs area with the kitchen and living area is a shared space which we had to ourselves for the weekend. Julie was an excellent host even from afar and the location was perfect.
