About this property

Romantic Rural Retreat/Hot tub/Fishing/Pond view/Woods/Private

Just minutes from shopping, dining, entertainment and outdoor adventures, this rural retreat in the Avery’s Creek Community is a sanctuary of peacefulness. Along with the horses in the pasture you are bound to see wild turkeys and deer and hear bull frogs on summer nights.
Your Private Hot Tub is on a covered porch with a spectacular view of the mountains from the spacious lounge seats. This spa hot tub features 31 jets and 2 full body seats.

Your fully equipped private bungalow overlooks our private fishing pond and horse pasture. You can take a short hike on the wooded property, fish for trout, bass and brim or plan your day sipping coffee on the porch and end it sitting around a warm campfire sharing stories from your day’s adventure.

This convenient location is ideal for the outdoor enthusiast. Your romantic get-away is located just 10 minutes from the Mountains to Sea Trail, water sports on the French Broad River, hiking and biking at Bent Creek and the NC Arboretum.

My wife and I stayed a couple nights during our anniversary road-trip, and we wish it had been more than just two. The location is beautiful, the personalized notes were very kind, and thought was definitely put in to anticipate anything we might have needed. The property was very clean and cozy. We loved it, and given the chance, we would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect honeymoon getaway
My wife and I loved the location. It felt quiet and secluded while still being close by everything. The property was beautifully situated on a pond and the cabin had everything you could want for a relaxing getaway. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch and hot tub. The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable.

Perfect Stay
This was one of the most relaxing places I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. My best friend and I have never enjoyed ourselves so much as we did staying at this place. The cabin is so cute and so much thought was put into everything we could possibly need for our stay. I love the design of the interior as well as the beautiful views while sitting in the living room or out on the beautiful deck. We had such a wonderful time here, and it was such a pleasure to meet Donna and her husband. They are such great hosts. We needed this time to get away and wind down and recharge, and we got that and so much more. We will be returning and we have written this one down as one of our best vacation spots yet. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than staying here. Thank you so much for having us.

Amazing trip!
We had such a great time at the cabin. Donna was the best host we have ever had. We arrived with a personal note and sign and felt so welcomed . The cabin was so cozy with a beautiful view. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds we have slept in. We already can’t wait until we can visit again. If you plan on visiting Asheville this is a must stay place!
