This incredible 21-acre property is the perfect place to host your next family reunion or large group retreat. In addition to the two-story main house, there is a duplex with two separate homes and a studio above the garage, all featuring separate entrances. Enjoy time alone in the individual sanctuaries and then reconvene for outdoor excursions. You'll find extensive hiking trails, creeks, waterfalls, a footbridge, and a private pond right on the grounds. The large stone patio behind the duplex known as The Fox Den makes for a great gathering place; host a friendly cookout using the private gas grill and then dine together at the ten-seater outdoor table.

You'll have numerous options for indoor meals with kitchenettes in the smaller homes and two full kitchens in the main house, each equipped with stainless steel appliances and breakfast bars. The upstairs kitchen has the added luxury of a center island with an extra sink and a wall-mount range hood. Indulge in a family feast at the dining area table for six or out on the deck. High chairs are provided, so your youngest family members don't miss out on anything. The roomy main house boasts vaulted wood-paneled ceilings, modern furnishings, and an open living area with a stone, wood-burning fireplace. Bonus amenities include central AC, a private washer/dryer, and Apple TVs.

Enjoy a superb location 6.5 miles from shopping and dining options in downtown Hendersonville. You're also 15.5 miles from the Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. Take a fun day trip to Asheville (30 miles) and explore everything the vibrant city offers.

Henderson Hide Away

This property was perfect for our extended family reunion. We had 7 siblings plus spouses on the property and had plenty of space for family time and alone time as needed. Outdoor area was awesome. A little chilly to eat outside but we enjoyed the trails and fire pit. The kitchens were well supplied for cooking family meals. Highly recommend this property for large groups.

Fantastic for a Large Group

This property is fantastic for a group of multiple families. Everyone was able to have their own private space while having a fantastic shared space for meals. The kitchen was well stocked (although we did occasionally need to pull items from other kitchens on property). The property is beautiful with ample parking and close to Hendersonville. Roads are windy but well paved, so we did not have any concerns for the 2WD vehicles.

Unexpected joy!!!!!

The place looked great online. The reality exceeded our expectations. Our children and grandchildren enjoyed the creek and trails. The adults loved the fire pit. Beautiful and a wonderful retreat center for a group to get away.
