An amazing place, but I've only been there once.
Exactly and once is enough, in my case many more times than that. Asheville does work hard keeping the arts thingy jumping, there is ALWAYS some kind of forum, show, exposition, bla bla bla going on there. And the Grove Park Inn is a wonderful place to stay with it's Arts & Craft thingy. Still, I'd rather go to Charleston, the PEARL city of the south, there's history, great houses/architecture, golf, seafood, the OCEAN! antiques up the ying yang, etc. But it's ALWAYS the same story with visitors here,
NOPE! We wanna go Asheville! PR wins again!
