Farm stay in Asheville

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 843 reviews

Gashes Fluss Haus

Walk back past tall trees, over a small wooden bridge with built-in love seats. Massage tired feet on a polished river-rock shower floor. This rustic 2-story cottage, dating back over 100 years, has whitewashed stone walls and a wood-burning stove. This is an old farm hand house and it shares the same property with the main house. Gashes Fluss Haus is a 117 year old coach house. The first floor is made of stone. Please park along side the house, under the flower box. If there's anything you need, please message me. Surrounded by nature, the home is a short drive to downtown, West Asheville, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Getting downtown is a 7 minute drive. Uber is around 9 dollars. The cottage is on the same property as the hosts house.

Yurt in Mars Hill

Romantic Yurt, Hot Tub, Farm & Tropical Greenhouse

Recent review: “Ginny and Mark’s property is quite literally heaven on Earth. The gardens, the bird song, the pond, fireflies, starlight in the hot tub, the private sunset trail … Can it get any more magical? It all feels like your very own healing retreat. We were so at ease and felt immense peace the 5 nights we spent here. We both were sad to leave. Ginny was so hospitable and kind. There is not one thing we would’ve changed. It was honestly perfect. Do yourself a favor and STAY HERE!
