Comfy. quiet and everything you could need, Katie has added so many little touches that you almost don't notice them until you go, WOW! A triple mirror for the wife to put on makeup, an "ambiance" speaker that provides white noise ,running water or the like if you have trouble sleeping (unlikely in this idyllic setting in the woods), and every kitchen implement one could want in an efficiency kitchen. No, you cannot cook an entire meal there but Asheville has SO many great restaurants why bother, you are on vacation, enjoy it!
The cottage is quiet and oh so nicely situated. Once you learn the back way in (via 74-A) you can avoid all the traffic and reach the Blue Ridge or Asheville in minutes. Sitting outside you can look at the trees and feel the cool mountain air. You might even want to buy some apples and carrots to feed the two horses next door who are very friendly! Katie was always available by phone or text to provide some information on where to go to dine or what to see.
If you want or need anything that you forgot, almost any supplies you could imagine, from food to drinks or even clothing, is available along US25 a 10 minute drive away. We know we will likely be back, so no fair reserving the week we want, but by all means make your reservations!
