VIEWS, PRIVACY, CONVENIENCE, EASY ACCESS, HOT TUB, and an AMAZING DECK!!!

Enjoy the peace and privacy yet only 14 miles to Asheville's Pack Square!

Mountain Views from inside and out - crazy large deck and a wall of windows set the stage. The Asheville Country Chalet is unquestionably one of the most unique vacation rentals in the area.

The custom-built Passive Solar home was designed for both comfort and entertaining. It has generously sized rooms, amazing views, and seemingly endless areas to gather… and others to enjoy a little solitude and tranquility.

Designed as a Swiss Chalet, updates have maintained the original character and groovy rustic elegance while adding modern conveniences.

The Chalet is offered with 3 Bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms. Queen beds in all Bedrooms.

LOCATION: This property is 17 miles from Asheville’s city limits, approximately a 20-25 minute drive to the heart of downtown. It is easily accessed via Interstate 26 and Highway 197, with no curvy mountain roads to maneuver. There are also several cab companies that can transport groups to and from downtown.

It is 10 minutes to the charming historic towns of Weaverville and Mars Hill. It’s only a few miles to the Coleman Boundary area of the Pisgah National Forest, 3 miles to Navitat Canopy Adventures (quite possibly the best zipline company in the country), and the French Broad River is nearby: kayaking, rafting, tubing, and fly fishing are offered by several local Outfitters. Bent Creek recreation area in Asheville ranks among the top 10 Mountain Biking sites in the country!

Voted Beer City USA for 4 consecutive years, there is more than the fabulous craft breweries in Asheville. LaZoom Comedy Tours offer family-friendly as well as R-rated adult entertainment, the Blue Ridge Parkway is beautiful any time of year, the Biltmore Estate is the largest privately-owned house in the United States and is open for tours year-round, the Arboretum and Botanical Gardens are lovely, and other recreational options are seemingly endless! Mix in Ashevilles cuisine, art, and music... you are not likely to find a quaint vacation destination with so much to offer!

Verified traveler

Very good scenic views, spacious, good value.

Good value for the money. The house is fine; lots of space. The basement area is a nice gathering place but had a stale smell like a lot of basements. The hot tub was very nice. The views are good. Everything in the house was in good working order and just about any kitchen utensil one could want was provided. Overall, our experience was a positive one and the owner and the caretaker were vets nice and attentive to anything we needed. It is likely that we will rent this property again in the future.

Picked the perfect weekend! Around 7" of snow at a very quiet and peaceful chalet! Plenty of room, and a very responsive and caring owner. Everything you'll need is in this house. Great time had by all

Great stay!

The chalet is everything we were looking for. We had a group of 6 that wanted space and great views. This house had everything! easy to access, clean and great stars at night. It was hard to leave the porch.
