After exploring our area, relax peacefully at our quiet oasis with five spacious, tastefully decorated rooms, each with private bath, fireplace, sitting area and cable TV. Guestrooms are beautifully furnished and include the "little extras" to be expected at a luxury inn or hotel such as soft robes, hair dryers, iron and bath amenities. Awake to a three-course breakfast outside on the terrace (weather permitting) and be greeted by songbirds and playful squirrels near the lily pond and waterfall.

Our park-like setting includes several areas to relax and enjoy our cool mountain breezes and mountain views, whether it's from the double hammock by the brook, rocking chairs on the terrace or the cozy glider facing the sunset over the mountains. Inside, relax in a large living room by the fireplace or play one of the games from our rainy day closet. Help yourself to soft drinks, bottled water, snacks and fresh-baked afternoon pastries. We offer free, high-speed, wireless internet access (even on the back patio!).

Whether you're looking for a souvenir or high-end furniture, or just window-shopping, the rewards of a stroll along the brick sidewalks are plentiful. Enjoy the quaint and relaxed atmosphere; take a break and put the bags down at one of several cafés. Head down the hill to Frog Level, the revitalized railroad district, for even more galleries and furniture shops.

An easy 30-minute drive is downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate. For your convenience, you can purchase Biltmore tickets from us and avoid the ticket lines at the estate.
