Twin Willows is a private 14-acre mountain estate in Mars Hill, North Carolina, offering exclusive overnight use of three separate guest homes in a peaceful, scenic setting. During winter months, the estate is conveniently located just two exits south of Hatley Pointe, which offers downhill skiing and family-friendly snow tubing. With ample space, privacy, and comfort, Twin Willows serves as an ideal home base for winter gatherings, ski weekends, and seasonal mountain getaways.

Designed for groups who value space and togetherness, the overnight rental includes three distinct accommodations: Stines House, a spacious historic home ideal for large families and reunions; The Stable, a beautifully renovated barn home with rustic character and scenic views; and Cascade Cottage, a fully ADA-compliant, stand-alone cottage offering accessible comfort. Renting the estate provides exclusive access to all three homes, allowing guests to stay close while enjoying private, separate spaces.

After a day of mountain activities, guests return to a warm, relaxed environment with multiple gathering areas, comfortable sleeping accommodations, and room to spread out across the residential portion of the estate. Twin Willows is well suited for family celebrations, retreats, and group stays throughout the year.

Property Layout & Guest Access

Guests have exclusive use of all three guest homes along with access to residential outdoor areas directly associated with the homes, including walking paths, fire pits, lawns, and gathering spaces. Each home features its own living areas, kitchens or kitchenettes, bedrooms, and bathrooms, offering flexibility for a wide range of group needs.

Estate Layout & Proximity

The three homes are thoughtfully positioned to balance proximity and privacy. Cascade Cottage is connected to Stines House by a covered walkway, and some outdoor areas may be visible between homes. Quiet hours are observed across the estate, maintaining a relaxed, residential atmosphere.

Designated dining and event areas are located near the entrance of the property and are intentionally separated from the overnight guest homes. These spaces operate independently and are not included with the overnight rental.

Interaction with Guests

Self check-in is provided for convenience. We are available by message if assistance is needed while respecting guest privacy. Staff may be present near the entrance of the property during seasonal food service hours or scheduled events.

    We enjoyed our stay. Property is clean and comfortable. The owner (Joe) is very friendly and helpful. We accidentally locked ourselves out of one of the bedrooms and the issue was resolved quickly. The food, music, and other activities available at the facilities next door were an added bonus. Overall it was a great stay.

    The property was perfect for our family. As well, the overall Twin Willows venue was a great location for our large family reunion. We entertained over 70 guests. Joe, Amy and LeAnn provided us great service and support.

    We love the variety of spaces and sleeping arrangements for our church group. We use The Stable as our meal prep and dining area and use the other two buildings for lodging. the Main House and Stable are great for group gatherings and the Cottage works well for those who need a little more peace and quiet from the group. Ample towels and other amenities are provided. All kitchens are well-stocked. The Main House is an historic, old building with character - respect of buildings with interesting floor plans from days gone by will help you embrace this space. Terrific porch spaces. Washers and dryers are all new and work well. Great water pressure throughout. Once in bedrooms, you'll appreciate how quiet things are - no road noise. We love to eat at Smokin' Joe's on property. Joe is a gracious host.

    We chose this property for our 45 people micro-wedding and family reunion. It was a wonderful venue and place to stay. We had our ceremony in the garden of the Stines House and reception at the Stable. I constantly communicated with Amy until the weekend of our stay and I communicated with Joe throughout my stay. They are wonderful hosts and were very helpful and communicative throughout the whole process.

    This property is perfect for a wedding. There are plenty of bedrooms for family, friends and wedding party to enjoy an extended event. Joe and Amy were extremely helpful and always willing to answer questions at a moment’s notice. Our daughter was over the moon with how everything turned out for her special day. The chapel on-site was a big hit with the wedding guests and the grounds were so beautiful.

    Twin Willows has been where my church in Pittsburgh, PA have stayed for the past 2 years when we've come down to Mars Hill, NC to do mission work with the Community Housing Coalition of Madison County. Joe and the Twin Willows property have been ideal for our group--it met all of our needs, from gathering spaces, to sleeping arrangements, to plenty of amenities for food and such. We adore Joe and the Twin Willows property and would highly recommend anyone staying here!

    Awesome property for a big group. Loved the location and the 3 houses were great for various activities. The community area on the property is closer than some might like, but everyone was respectful of private areas.
