About this property

Luxury Urban Farm & Eco-Retreat ~ Hot Tub ~ Fire Pit ~ Walk Downtown ~

Welcome to downtown Asheville's only luxury micro-farm and retreat! Exemplifying the true spirit of Asheville, Rose Knoll Urban Oasis is an homage to the adventurer, the dreamer, the artist & the wanderer within us all. (Follow along on Instagram @roseknollurbanoasis)

Our newly remodeled circa-1925 suite offers a private deck & entrance, pick-your-own garden, hot tub, clawfoot tub, indoor fireplace, plush king-size bed, full-size sofa bed, outdoor grill, fire pit, daybed love nest & more — all within walking distance to both downtown & the River Arts District.

Nestled in Asheville’s historic Montford neighborhood, this cozy garden hideaway encompasses the best of both worlds, offering a luxury retreat into nature -- right in the heart of the city.

You’re just a one-mile walk from the center of downtown (Pritchard Park, home of Asheville’s infamous Friday night drum circle!) and all of the best breweries and restaurants Asheville has to offer. If you’re in town to enjoy the music or art scene the River Arts District provides, you’re equally centrally located -- the ten-mile riverside pedestrian and bike path begins right at the bottom of the hill.

If you're visiting for a personal retreat or romantic sojourn in the mountains, take advantage of your personal hot tub (privacy screens included to ensure maximum solitude), indoor gas fireplace, clawfoot tub and private deck to relax, renew and recharge.

Tune out and tune in on your porch daybed love nest and -- during the growing season -- sample the tomatoes, peppers, berries and more in the “pick-your-own” garden on this eclectic urban farm.

Business travelers and those on work retreats will appreciate high-speed Internet, a dedicated work nook, proximity to downtown, and our quiet, dead-end family neighborhood.

Reconnect with nature and laze under the stars as you enjoy your custom outdoor fire pit. Be a kid again and cook over the open fire via our custom grill grate, or have a hot dog or marshmallow roast! (Complimentary wood bundle and S'mores sticks provided.)

Local libations and snacks, complimentary tea & coffee included to set your Asheville escape off on the right note ~

My stay at this beautiful home was amazing! The owner could not have been more welcoming, checking in to make sure I had what I needed, provided some local recommendations but most importantly the pictures don’t do it justice with how relaxing and peaceful it was!

Beautiful property and very convenient location. Access to vegetable garden and fire pit made my stay feel like home. I stayed alone but this property would be great for couples. The space is private and enjoys a beautiful view from the deck. The owner is very passionate about growing vegetables, herbs, tropical plants and flowers which adds a terrific natural beauty to the property. I would certainly stay here again.

Weekend Getaway to Asheville

My wife and I love coming to Asheville a few times a year as we live in Tennessee and we like staying in different VRBO’s each time we go. This location is by far the best VRBO that we have stayed in over the years. The cleanliness, the amenities, the comfort, the style of the interior is top notch and can’t be overstated. The owner’s communication is timely and concise. We would definitely stay here again! Also, this is our first visit since the Hurricane and although this area was affected by the damage, Asheville is rebuilding and don’t let that keep you from visiting the great restaurants, shops and breweries this town has to offer!

Beautiful home with a wonderful host!

This place is absolutely amazing. My partner and I visited for our anniversary trip and we were blown away by the stunning garden, cozy decor and the friendliness of the host, Monroe. She was amazing and provided great recommendations around town for us to visit, along with checking in and making sure we had everything we needed! I look forward to staying here again!

Cute and comfortable

This property was a perfect spot for our girls' weekend in Asheville. Close to everything we wanted to do and comfortable for hanging out. It was super clean and felt very spacious...the bathtub is fabulous! It felt very private and the outside space is perfect!
