I love Asheville

Asheville, NC is probably my favorite place ever.

I love that we camped in the mountains by the river, and were only about a ten minute drive to the city.

Our site was right on the river. Beautiful stars. Each site has an electrical outlet, there are water pumps, and also WiFi!

Its also a dog friendly site, but also one of the more expensive sites I’ve stayed at.

There were full bathrooms too

Loterally the only downfall for me was the train that goes by across the river in the middle of the night and lays in the horn.
