Julia's place was the perfect place to stay for a visit to tour the fall colors and also explore the Blue Ridge Parkway as well as Ashville. We got introduced to her growing family of goats, and Julia was very informative about the area in general. So much better than staying in a generic hotel that you won't remember, this little place was a great part of our whole trip. The only reason I didn't give five stars is that we would have preferred a little bit more of a comfortable bed than a futon, but that's it. Great place!
