The best part of moving to a brand new city or community is the exploration. By the time you’re all unpacked and settled into your new apartment, all you want to do is get out and see how the locals live. White Oak Grove is so close to some of the best tourist attractions and activities in Asheville and we’ve narrowed down a few of our personal favorites. If you need to get out of your apartment, let us show you the highlights of your brand new community.

Downtown Asheville

Everyone’s hometown has their own version of a historic, lively downtown area — and that is where the Asheville Downtown Association comes in. Just a five minute drive from the White Oak Grove apartment complex is Asheville’s vibrant, thriving downtown scene — filled to the brim with small business shops, art galleries, and free and guided walking tours, all centered around numerous breweries and restaurants. Walking up and down these streets is the ideal way to spend Friday nights or weekend afternoons, just taking in our city’s personality. Grab dinner and drinks anytime and keep a close eye on all the holiday and special calendar events.

Let’s face it: the apartment search process is daunting for everyone, whether you’re looking for just yourself, for yourself and a spouse or a small family. There are the issues of narrowing down a convenient location and finding an affordable price range — both of which depend heavily on what you’re looking for in the apartment itself. How many bedrooms? How many bathrooms? What amenities have to be available?

What Size Is Right for You?

When looking for apartments to rent, you have to consider what you’ll be using your space for. One bedroom, one bathroom apartments are the ideal size for cozy living and light entertaining. White Oak Grove’s 830 to 850 square foot units are ideal for one-person remote or at-office work, not to mention enough living and dining space to accommodate visiting college friends. All your must-have amenities are included as well, from a short commute to downtown Asheville to the all-important in-unit washer and dryer. These standard layouts are a must-have for anyone fresh out of college and starting their careers, whether you have kitchen meal prep down or not quite.

With its mild climate, sunny skies, and miles of hiking trails and city streets to explore, Asheville is the picture-perfect place to be in the springtime. The trees and the flowers are in bloom, the air is mildly warm and comfortable, and local adventures abound. Let’s explore some of our favorite springtime things to do!

1. Go waterfall hunting

Asheville is situated near a number of beautiful state and national parks, and many hiking trails offer spectacular views of beautiful waterfalls, such as Linville Falls, Daniel Ridge Falls, the Hunger Games Waterfalls at DuPont State Forest (so named because scenes from the movies were filmed there, and actually named Triple Falls), and so many more. Scout them on your own or use a helpful resource like this handy guide to hiking to waterfalls near Asheville.

2. Check out American art

If you’re into art museums, the Asheville Art Museum is a must. This newly renovated local gem focuses primarily on American art of the 20th and 21st centuries. It’s also right next to the French Broad Chocolate Lounge, which is another treat in and of itself; it’s just one of the more high-calorie varieties.

How to Clean Your Apartment When Moving Out featured image.jpg

Before moving out of your old apartment to White Oak Grove in Asheville, your old apartment definitely should be cleaned. Follow our ultimate apartment cleaning checklist to ensure you get your full rental deposit back! Most renters don’t pay much attention to the end-of-lease clean-up, but in fact it is often a stipulation on leases, where, if you don’t do a proper cleaning, you risk losing part of your security check, just as if you had broken something. So before saying farewell to your old place, here’s what you need to clean beforehand.

If you’re in a studio or a one-bedroom apartment and you’re looking to upgrade, a two-bedroom apartment is a great choice to make. Not only do two-bedroom apartments have considerably more space overall, that space is spread out nicely throughout the whole apartment in addition to the extra room. There is ample space, then, to pursue any number of hobbies, have a guest room, or use the space for other options. If you’re looking for a two-bedroom apartment in Asheville, White Oak Grove Apartments has some beautiful floor plans that you can check out before contacting us to make an appointment to view our apartments and find your new home.

Having extra room in your apartment means you can have a dedicated dining area in addition to the living room and the two bedrooms. It simply gives you more space overall, and the extra room can be used in a number of ways:

  • Fancy a roommate? Even if you don’t at present, you might consider one in the future. Aside from living with a person you select and whose living behaviors are copacetic with your own, it can be especially pleasant to come home to someone who is already there. They may be making dinner and offer you some, or cleaning up the house: things that you now won’t have to do. You may be bursting with some great news — a promotion at work, an exciting development in a class at school, you upped your weights by ten pounds at the gym and still scorched your workout — and you’ll have a built-in person to share it with. Similarly, you might have a shoulder to cry on when bad news rears its ugly head. No matter what, roommates can come with a lot of up sides.

Most of the time it can be really nice to stay home for the holidays, or even to host your families and friends near and far. Sometimes, in apartment complexes, people can feel a little cramped or crowded, but if you live at White Oak Grove Apartments in Asheville, you know that’s not going to be a problem. Staying home for the holidays, however, can seem to take on a more ominous tone when you’re doing it because of restrictions and recommendations required by the concern of a pandemic. When we all started washing our hands more, stopped touching our faces and started investing in basic PPE to wear regularly out in public at the start of the Covid-19 spread, probably none of us thought it would impact our Thanksgiving or other holiday plans.

Yet, here we are, and there’s no greater bunch of people who know how to pull up their bootstraps and approach challenges positively than the American public. Within a few months we’ve gone from a society who wouldn’t think about wearing a face mask in public, generally, to one that keeps extras in our cars, purses, backpacks, briefcases and gets the importance of wearing them. We even go above and beyond: some cities make noise at prescribed times to honor healthcare workers, in others, people howl for those we’ve lost and for those we are so grateful to still hold dear. Communities sent pizzas and salads and finger foods to local hospitals for doctors and nurses and EMTs and everyone else to have plenty to eat while working crazy long shifts. Moms and Dads figured out, on the fly, how to be teacher’s helpers and sometimes teachers themselves as their kids began virtual learning. And if you’re a resident at White Oak Grove Apartments in Asheville, you have plenty of room and modern conveniences for enjoying your (small) holiday celebration anyway. Sure, they’re all the same great amenities you’ve come to know and love, like granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and in-unit washers and dryers, but these premium perks do make the holidays a little more special. What else can you do to make the holidays special, and safe, this year if you’re hosting or attending a small celebration in or outside of your home?

More space: everyone looking for an apartment is always looking for it. It’s especially ideal when it comes in the form of a whole extra room. To be able to have an additional room devoted solely to a music studio, gaming area, office, meditation room, man cave...so many possibilities, it seems like the sky's the limit! This is especially true at White Oak Grove apartments, where our in-apartment and community amenities are unmatched in West Asheville.

For a limited time, we’ll give you one month’s rent free if you lease one of our two-bedroom apartments. Why are we doing this for our two bedrooms? The addition of an extra room gives so much more space to really make your own. When you live at White Oak Grove Apartments we want you to feel completely at home. Extra space simply increases that feeling organically. Now you have an additional room to devote to your hobby, your passion, your work, your kids, or just about anything you can dream up!

Looking for some ideas? Set it up with your PlayStation and make it a dedicated gaming room. Or, for analog fans like us, set up a big table for games like Scrabble, chess, and fun board games. Turn it into your own personal library, complete with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a couple of comfy reading nooks. Make it your relaxation space, with soft and comfortable furnishings, throws, tons of pillows, soft little rugs scattered about, and calming colors like lavender and pale blue to keep the space one of calm and peace. You can turn it into an exercise room with a weight bench and barbells, or a yoga room with mats, blocks, straps, and perhaps a big screen TV to stream internet yoga programs right into your own yoga space. Create a man cave with a big screen, comfy recliner, pennants of your favorite teams on the walls, fridge stocked with all of your favorite goodies (bonus points if it has a freezer for you to keep a stash of frozen pizza and mozzarella stix), you name it. If you are spiritually-inclined, this can be a lovely place to create a shrine or place mementos of things that are important to your spiritual path and it can be a pleasant place for meditation, too. If you have some flexibility in your job to work from home, you might create a home office that you enjoy working in. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
