I have rented out Base Camp AVL's Big Room for the event right in downtown Asheville. The space is gorgeous and they gave us the room for 4 hours for $300 when they normally charge $125/hr. So far working with them has been excellent. The address is 133 Church st, Asheville, NC, 28801. I will be setting up so official meetup time is 1-4pm!
If you want to stay the weekend, I know a few of us are. Engicoder or I can point you in the direction of some good hotels.
Also, beer. There is so many breweries in Asheville that you couldn't go to all of them in a week if you tried
