Historic Farmstead Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Mountain Views
Welcome to a peaceful farmhouse retreat set on a piece of Asheville’s living history. Surrounded by open meadows and rolling pasture, this relaxing escape offers the perfect balance of country tranquility and city convenience, just minutes from downtown Asheville.

Once an active produce farm in the 1970s, this land provided fresh fruits and vegetables to the local community for over 30 years. In the early 2000s, it took on a new purpose—growing potatoes for families in need and continuing its tradition of giving back.

Today the land still honors its self-sustaining roots. The surrounding fields are used to grow hay for local farmers, creating wide open views, fresh mountain air, and a peaceful setting that invites you to slow down and unwind.

Relax in the fenced Zen garden with bubbling fountain, soak in the private hot tub, or gather around the fire pit under the stars. Step beyond the fence to explore open fields, swing beneath the sky, and take in beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain views.

    Overall, nice property! Loved the outside conditions that came along with the rental (hot tub, swing, firepit, fountain, bluetooth speaker). Indoors was clean and comfortable.

    A perfect little house for a few days in the Ashville area. Our dog was always safe in the enclosed back yard. The driveway was very easy to miss so go slow and look for hidden driveway.

    We had a great two-night stay here. The mountain views are beautiful, and there’s plenty of space for kids to run and play. It felt very private and peaceful—the perfect spot to unwind. Would definitely come back.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Michael’s property! The yard was perfect for our dogs kids, and the house itself was clean and well-stocked. We would definitely stay here again! Michael is a great host.

    I rent this place because i saw the good reviews but when i arrived I though is going to be a private house but you can see the others houses and people, and the hot tub was cold water I texted the owner and he just told me when you arrived was hot i can't do nothing about that, I was very disappointed because he didn't help.

    House was clean, hot tub was clean. As listed although needs updated outside photos. Location was good for our interests. Kitchen was remodeled but needs attention to utensils and dishes. The swing over looking the field and mountains was nice.

    Great quiet place, many photo opportunities, beautiful mountains in the distance, clean, and just cute! We had a sister/mom weekend and enjoyed our stay, especially the private backyard and hot tub after hiking! Thank you for a great place to lay our heads.

    We enjoyed our activities in the Asheville area and this property allowed us to spend less time traveling and more time exploring. We were disappointed that the pictures did not meet up with reality. Pictures are several years old. On the outside (first impression) the trees and shrubs were overgrown and the address was difficult to see. The yard and deck had not been tended to welcome guests. Rotting boards on the deck, no firewood provided for the fire ring, chairs were dirty. Inside, though surfaces were clean, the floor had dust and cobwebs in every corner. The shower curtains had not been cleaned (I cleaned the mildew off before using). Simple things like hooks, hangars, and shelves for our belonging were sparse which means most things were on the floor or stayed in our suitcases. The kitchen is spacious but not well supplied or organized. We did enjoy some time in the hot tub and on the back swing. We were disappointed that the numerous 5-star reviews did not match up with our experience.

    Our group of 7 friends met up for an annual long weekend together and had a wonderful stay. House was exactly as advertised, process was easy and smooth, and we made the most of our time together enjoying all that Asheville has to offer from live music, to hiking, to restaurants/ bars and the River arts district. The hot tub was a wonderful bonus at the end of each night for us all!
