[ Google Review ] Absolutely love sliding rock. It's a great place for kids, but I definitely recommend for them to have a life vest regardless of swimming abilities. The water is so cold that sometimes they dont swim. I've seen it a couple times. You have to experience this!!!

[ Google Review ] So much to see and do here! This place is breathtaking!! My 10 year old daughter loved it as well. The house tour is amazing. I would recommend getting an audio guide to listen to your first time here. Awesome concerts held here during the summer and tons of other tours to book with them also!
[ Google Review ] Great to see the original building! Such fun to visit the old fashioned lunch counter and snag some sweets, a giant pickle, or original recipe sandwiches. The art on display and for sale is generous in selection and with a wide spectrum of prices. Something for everyone in the two floors of the gallery. Spacious, well lit, extraordinary place to spend a raging afternoon. Thoroughly enjoyed our time in this historic downtown Asheville building.
This is a free event. The drummers begin showing up around 6 PM (sometimes as early as 5 PM) and the crowd builds until it ends at 10 PM. Don't miss this... It will make you feel good all over! The drum circle has been active since 2001.
[ Google Review ] It was our first time going for winter lights. It is drizzling rain, but that didn't stop us. It was beautiful and breathtaking. A must see.
[ Google Review ] From the moment I walked in, I knew this was going to be a fantastic experience. The decor, the chefs cutting fresh meat, the expansive bar...this place is outstanding!! Our server Alex knew every detail of the menu, and had exceptional suggestions. I had a sangria like I've never had before! My friend had a whiskey made with rosemary, also phenomenal!! Every dish we had, we would take a bite and just be in awe at the flavor! I can't even pick a favorite because we loved everything we tried. We go on a " mom's date " once a month and pick a different location each time. After last night we've decided we will come back to Curate every month. This place does not disappoint !!
[ Google Review ] What a diamond in the rough. My parents were dazzled and my husband loved their ambiance. I loved their decor! The food tasted splendid and the only unfortunate part was that they ran out of candy canes for their holiday drink but I ended up trying another drink that I loved probably more than I would have the candy cane one
[ Google Review ] Pretty sure this is the oldest farmers market in the AVL... by my estimation certainly the best! Love Full Sun Farms, Gaining Ground Farms, Eat Fork Farms for eggs and meat... the list goes on! Beautiful and Yummy! Vegan, Gluten Free, mushrooms... the list does not stop!
[ Google Review ] If I share how amazing of a place Looking Glass Creamery is I literally get nervous of having to stand in line at some point in the future. Really though, this place has got to be one of my most favorite places in all of NC for amazing cheese boards and a setting that makes you enjoy your time there. My friends and I will literally drive a couple hours for a day trip and have this as our first stop. You will not regret stopping by!
[ Google Review ] What an expression of culinary delight! A unique combination of delectable tastes and textures bursts out of this thoughtful menu. Top notch service and cozy/clean/classic atmosphere round out the experience. Experts run this place. Go!
[ Google Review ] We. Love. This. Bar. We were in Asheville for 3 nights. 2 of those nights we went to Off the Wagon. Neither myself or my boyfriend had ever been to a piano bar, but now we are going to go home and frequent our local piano bars. It is so much fun! The drinks are strong and cheap. They acknowledge 911 dispatchers as first responders (huge). We love that it’s Veteran owned. The waitresses were polite and attentive. They play your requests quickly. And the vibes are just awesome. We had so much fun. Definitely a major highlight of our trip! Can not recommend enough.
