<strong>Adventure</strong> Destination<br />
Asheville, North Carolina<br />
Weekend With A Local<br />
There have been many articles devoted to activities in<br />
Asheville. There’s always the standard fare – Visit the<br />
Biltmore House, take in a treatment at the world famous<br />
Grove Park Inn and Spa...Check out Asheville’s<br />
well-known freakiness on Lexington Ave...It’s all out<br />
there for the Googling...What I’m gonna do is take you<br />
on a weekend with a local and share the adventurous<br />
stuff to do. Isn’t that why you wanted to visit?<br />
By Jay Curwen<br />
First...Where are you going to sleep? If you’re not<br />
lucky enough to have a friend with a couch to crash on,<br />
you’ll need a hotel...and a tourist town like Asheville<br />
is over-run with them. For convenience to downtown,<br />
combined with economy of price, look at Tunnel Road<br />
which is the main drag east out of town. You’ll find<br />
everything from a Super8 to a Hampton, all for between<br />
$50 and $100 per night, depending on the season.<br />
But, to get the real flavor of Asheville, spend a<br />
little more and go for a local bed and breakfast. For<br />
just over $120 a night, you can end up within comfortable<br />
walking distance of restaurants, coffee houses and<br />
everything you are here for. Two great choices are the<br />
Aberdeen Inn or the White Gate Inn.<br />
