Neighborhoods in Asheville

"West Asheville is mostly comprised of narrow streets filled with gorgeous historic homes, but the area is not all residential. Hit trendy Haywood Road for eclectic dive bars such as the Desoto Lounge and delicious restaurants like BimBeriBon and Biscuit Head. Stop in one of the many shops filled with pieces of local art before walking among the brightly painted bungalows with plant-filled porches that line the streets splintering off of Haywood Road. Due to its proximity to the French Broad River, which separates West Asheville from downtown, outdoor activities like kayaking and rafting are readily available. Visitors can rent from local businesses to partake in these beginner-friendly water sports on the slow-moving river." - MATADOR_NETWORK
