Let’s jump right in. Here’s more of what’s going around:

AutoCamp Asheville, a lodging destination where folks can stay in Airstreams, is scheduled to welcome visitors later this year. The 16-acre campground north of Asheville (it’s actually closer to Weaverville than Asheville) lies along the French Broad River, out past the sewage plant, the old landfill and the state prison. Here’s more from the AutoCamp website: “From the Catskills to Zion and Yosemite to Asheville, we’re still blending the traditional outdoor experience with the service and design-forward thinking of a boutique hotel. We’ve even expanded to introduce our sister brand, Field Station, the indoor hotel and van life basecamp, that makes AutoCamp’s signature hospitality even more accessible.”
