Asheville, NC HM spot?

TNBride2012

Hey everyone,

My fiance and I are looking to honeymoon in Asheville, NC in May of 2012. Would anyone happen to have ay recomendations? We're on a pretty tight budget, so anything around $100 a night would be great. Cabin, hotel, we're not picky, though a hot tub would be nice. :-) I know this might be impossible, but if anyone has any connections/knows of some places, I'd love to hear your suggestions. I've already posted on the local boards for NC, but I just wanted to try the HM board in case anyone here happened to know of something in NC. Thanks so much in advance! Happy holidays!

DH and I visited Asheville this past May and had a great time! We stayed at a Springhill Suites which was nice but maybe not honeymoon "special." Asheville and the surrounding area though is beautiful! I would highly recommend driving along the Blue Ridge Parkway (or even going into Great Smokey Mountain National Park), perhaps bringing a picnic and bottle of wine?

This week Living Social Escapes is having an Asheville B & B special:

Biltmore is incredible and while pricey for tickets it's definitely something I would splurge. We had really memorable meals at Luella's BBQ and Tupelo Honey Cafe.

Good luck!
