Relax and turn back time at Raspberry Hill, a unique and historical vacation rental property located just minutes to Black Mountain, Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, and Asheville.
Nestled in the heart of Western North Carolina in the tranquil Broad River valley is Raspberry Hill. Named for the large wild raspberry patch located behind the house, guests are welcome to go “berry-picking” in season. Raspberry Hill is an authentically-restored, early 1900's homestead.
Surrounded by 30 acres of beautiful mountains and valleys, Raspberry Hill welcomes guests of all ages and walks of life to enjoy a tranquil stay. Play football or soccer in an enormous field, fish in the creek, or enjoy long walks in the woods by day. Tell ghost stories around an outdoor fire, enjoy a big family dinner, feel the warmth of a wood fire in the living room, or simply relax on one of 5 porches at night. There is plenty of room to pitch tents and camp outside.
Each bedroom in Raspberry Hill has its own bathroom, a separate entrance, and a unique porch. There are 3 Full-sized beds, one Queen bed, and one King bed to sleep 10 comfortably. An air bed can be used in the living room if needed. The fully equipped country kitchen is ready for a big family meal or a simple cup of coffee. The dining room has an antique table and dishes for a pleasing display.

We had a GREAT family Thanksgiving at Raspberry Hill. It was a very relaxing atmosphere "away from it all." There were brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, nieces, nephews, grandmothers, dogs, turkey, and even "over the river to Grandmother's House." The little stream that runs along the property is so pretty. We enjoyed building big fires in the firepit and roasting marshmallows at night. The whole experience was just what our family was looking for.
