    Is the Westin walking distance?

    Or easy to walk?

    If you are into cycling, George Hincapie, has a hotel/resort north of Greenville in Travelers Rest (about 20 mins north going toward Asheville). Asheville has a lot of hotels including the Biltmore but is about 45-60 mins north of Greenville. Asheville is little more "crunchy" resembling parts of the NW by population of homeless. Nevertheless, it is a pretty cool place. Greenville more cosmopolitan/international and clean.

    Really appreciate all these tips. I'm excited to visit a part of the country that I have never been to (outside of South Florida which I don't think is a representation of the true south). Since we are flying the red-eye and getting in really early, I think we'll head to Ashville for a few hours, have lunch and make our way to Greenville once we can actually check into our hotel on Friday. Restaurant and Bar/Brewery tips are also greatly appreciated!
    Hit Oskar blues in Brevard. It's right outside of pisgah national forrest which is my favorite place. Sierra Nevada is in Mills River also. You could probably skip Asheville there's really not a whole lot to it just really crowded

    I live in Asheville. Try Green man, wicked weed, catawba, Asheville brewery all located on the South slope. If time make trip out to Sierra Nevada.

    That's nonsense. ;)

    Actually te best beer places in Asheville (which is definitely a top 5 place for beer and te fact you can walk to many make sit close to #1) is:

    1) wicked weed - hands down
    2) Funkatorium - 2nd WW location - if you like Spurs
    3) Burial - they have been killing it
    4) Greenman

    A couple of other decent ones is One World (I think that's it's name) and hi-wire. Oh and for beer bars, Thirsty Monk (get the pint of bacon app).
    I would skip funkatorium, I don't like sour beers. Good list but add Asheville brewery

    So, this will be my first time to Greenville. Any certain hotel that we should book, or is just staying downtown good enough?

    I'd book something off main downtown it's a pretty cool street and falls park is awesome
    Ending up booking the Holiday Inn & Suites Downtown.
    I've never stayed there but you can walk everywhere you need to go from there

    Both my brother and I missed out on this one! I'm surprised and very bummed. Anybody have extras plz let us know! Otherwise we are going to try on ticketmaster but will also be trying to fill in some gaps in our MSG hopes. I'm afraid Greenville might sell out while we are trying (and likely failing) to get MSG night 1 tickets.

    Coming from Dallas...won both of my choices, Greenville and Hampton, I'm so excited! I have a feeling Greenville is going to be a good one. Really looking forward to visiting the city as well, I'll have to do some research on cool historic places/interesting attractions to visit if I have time.
