About this property
Hamersmith Hollow Retreat by AvantStay | Mountain Views
Kick back and soak in nature's symphony from the expansive wrap-around porch of this picturesque mountain retreat. There's no shortage of comfy spots to stretch out and unwind in this cozy home. You'll be treated to stunning mountain vistas right from the porch, which also provides a front-row seat to the sprawling private pond adorned with a delightful water feature.
Inside, the primary bedroom features a queen bed with a TV and ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom also has an ensuite bathroom and features a king-size bed, while a third king can be found in the final bedroom. A sleeper sofa is also available for flexible sleeping arrangements.
Chase away the chill by snuggling up to the mesmerizing glow of the gas fireplace – a perfect way to create warm memories.
AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
Nestled in Mars Hill, with the cosmopolitan charm of Asheville just 20 miles away, you'll relish easy access to mountain sports, family activities, and captivating experiences. Mars Hill boasts proximity to the Appalachian Trail, the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, and a medley of national and state parks. 11 miles from the Tennessee border, it’s also known for its music and crafting scene (the Heritage Festival takes place every autumn). Take in the awe-inspiring sight of Mt. Mitchell, the eastern United States' loftiest peak, on clear days. Engage in an array of outdoor pursuits – be it the thrill of zip lining and skiing, the tranquility of hiking and cycling, or the excitement of horseback riding, whitewater rafting, and fly fishing.
Local Attractions: Downtown Asheville, Biltmore Estate, Asheville Regional Airport, Grove Park, Ingles Market, French Broad Adventures
