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. You are 10 minutes from dining, shopping and entertainment at Biltmore Park and Sierra Nevada Brewery, 15 minutes from the airport, North Mills River National Forest Recreation Area, and the Asheville Outlet Mall and 20 minutes from West Asheville, The Biltmore Estate and Biltmore Village, the River Arts District and Downtown Asheville.

Special amenities that can be arranged through the owners for an additional fee include: 1) Horse boarding for up to 2 horses during your stay.

We visited for our anniversary and had an amazing time. We absolutely loved staying at this cabin. The owners were so kind and welcoming. We really enjoyed the hot tub and fishing. We also went tubing on the river less than 15 minutes away. I also thought the little fireplace area was absolutely beautiful.

A Piece of Heaven

Cozy cabin with a spectacular view overlooking a private lake and rural countryside. My husband and I fished in the lake, hiked on their property and relaxed in the hot tub. Donna and Curtis were amazing hosts! They offered great suggestions for fun things to do in the area. We couldn't have asked for a more awesome, romantic getaway! We will definitely be back!

Peaceful and easy to get to

Loved the cabin. Secluded yet easy to get to and close to many local attractions. Quick response to questions before and during stay. Fishing is great on the pond! I will definitely recommend staying here for single travelers or couples looking to get away from the chaos of everyday life. Sitting on the screened porch at night listening to the frogs was super relaxing. Hot tub was GREAT!

Great Getaway

Donna’s cabin sits on a stunningly beautiful property. To reach the house you drive past a lovely horse farm with mountains all around. The cabin is cozy with everything you need including a hot tub and screen porch that overlooks a tranquil lake. The inside is well appointed and very clean. The bed was very comfortable with extra pillows and blankets. If you’re looking for a magical forest getaway this ticks all the boxes.

A slice of paradise!

Donna's property is a true gem tucked away for ultimate relaxation. We loved that while staying at the cabin, we really felt like we could unplug and be in nature. Even more, we loved that the cabin was at a perfect driving distance from anything you wanted to do in town, so you could have the best of both worlds. The cabin was very clean, cozy, and had all the things you would need for your stay. Donna is very attentive and easy to contact. Highly HIGHLY recommend this cabin for your stay in Asheville! Can't wait to be back!
