Historic Country Estate in Asheville

The Carolina Jewel is the most unique vacation rental in the Asheville area. The main house has history and character and maintains a casual luxury that other homes cannot duplicate. The two houses sit about 100 yards apart and are joined by a footbridge over the creek with water cascading over the moss covered rocks. The porches, decks, benches, and a firepit all provide the setting for creating precious memories.

The Carolina Jewel has5 bedrooms in the historic 1845 Victorian Farmhouse and an additional 2 bedrooms in the spacious Creekside Crystal Cottage on the property across the creek underneath a canopy of trees. Each of the suites in the Historic house, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has its’ own unique charm. All bedrooms have private baths and fireplaces equipped with gas logs.
The oldest portion of the home, the Great Room that was built in 1845, has rustic rough-hewn logs and its fireplace is made of rocks pulled from the fields outside. Adjacent to the great room is the fully stocked modern kitchen and laundry room for your use. In 1880 an addition, of the Victorian style, was added to the log cabin to accommodate the growing family. A major interior renovation in 1999, added luxury bathrooms without disturbing the charm of the by gone era.
The Carolina Jewel is situated on 4 acres with a stream running through the property, a great firepit, swing, hammocks, decks, porches, and a large level area for the kids to run and play.

The Carolina Jewel locations is ideal with the heart of downtown Asheville only 15 minutes away. Uber and Lyft will pick up and deliver to the Carolina Jewel. The charming town of Weaverville is only 8 miles away and the Blue Ridge Parkway entrance is a mere 5 miles. Many of the top outdoor activities are located within a 20 minute drive; everything from river rafting to zip lines and gem mining! There is even an apple orchard in the neighborhood. You will also find some of the best restaurants as well as some of the best kept secrets that your host will share with you. But, then again, many of our guest book the Carolina Jewel because they want to visit Asheville yet when they arrive and unwind they don’t even want to leave the property!

Guest have access to all parts of both houses.

Michael & Eva like to greet all guest to show the quirks of the old house. We are always available for our guest.

The Carolina Jewel is located at the entrance to the Hawks Landing community which is an upscale community in the valley. It is a good neighborhood for a walk with great neighbors.
Quite time after 10 PM.

Please inquire about pets, we love our fur babies of the canine variety but do limit the number and size of dogs. There is a pet fee of 75 per pet.

    This was the perfect spot for our family gathering after Christmas with plenty of space for everyone, a well stocked kitchen for preparing family meals and a lovely setting in the mountains. The house has been so lovingly maintained and feels like it could tell many special stories. Thanks for sharing it with us. We'll be back!

    We had the most wonderful time staying at the Carolina Jewel Farmhouse and Creekside Cottage with our friends and family. Each space had all the amenities you could possibly need. Every single one of the bedrooms was large and luxurious (larger than some of the pictures made it seem even which is hardly ever the case!) We got married next to the magical babbling creek and had a reception under a tent with our 50 guests right on the property. Planning even a small wedding is never an easy feat, but Eva was so helpful and easy to work with throughout the whole process. Our guests kept remarking on how cool the farm house is and how the whole property was so well maintained. The Carolina Jewel will be cherished by our family for years to come, we can’t wait to come back and stay for another visit.

    Our family of 14 stayed at the Carolina Jewel and I cannot say enough grerat things about this property! We were in the area to celebrate our son's marriage from the year before and the property exceeded our expectations. Not only was it perfectly charming, especially if you love beautiful old historic properties, but it had so much room that even with our large number we never felt crowded. The bedrooms were spacious and with all of the ammenities right down to the little touches like shampoo/conditioner. And while it is steeped in history, it has also been updated and had all of the modern conveniences you could want like jacuzzi tubs in almost every bathroom and a very well stocked kitchen inlcuding Keurig coffee maker, We loved it so much as a family that we are talking about maybe coming together there in the future. Eva was a fabulous and very reponsive host. She came out to help us get settled and was very quick to answer any question we had. If you want a beautiful location for a large crowd - try the Carolina Jewel - you won't be sorry!!

    My nephew was getting married at a nearby venue and my mom wanted all of us(13+) to stay together. I rented the carolina jewel, the cabin and the treehouse and it was perfect. It is always nerve wracking to book a spot for that many people but everyone loved it. My 2 married nephews and their young children stayed in the cabin. The bridge over the creek was a favorite of the 3 yos as was the swing. The firepit was utilized both on thursday night for just the family and Friday night for family and groomsmen. Each bedroom had a cool bathroom attached. My 84 yo mom stayed in the 1 downstairs room with a walkin shower. I liked the fact the tv was only in 1 room so people were more inclined to spend time together. I cannot say enough good thjngs about the carolina jewel. We would definitely stay there again
