Very clean and comfortable. We arrived at night which was lovely with all the lights. The morning view didn’t disappoint!
I want to put a bad review so no one else will come find this amazing gem, but I can't! It is simply a breathtaking view! The rooms are clean and bed super comfortable. Dining room is huge and coffee/tea provided. We met some lovely couples and even shared a breakfast together one morning and stargazed too. Perfect place for a wedding or family reunion or church retreat!
We will def be back again!
This property was exactly as portrayed only better. The attention to detail, friendly staff and unsurpassable view made it one of our best trips ever. Kitchen is well supplied with all cooking equipment but must bring every food item needed. Can’t wait to go back
Mount Mitchell Eco Retreat is a true hidden gem! Everything here is so beautiful, cozy, and perfectly thought out from the room and common areas to the kitchen and layout. The views are breathtaking, and every detail feels made with love and care. It truly exceeded our expectations, we can’t wait to come back!
The Eco Retreat's location is amazing. The retreat provides an awesome communal cooking arrangement steps away from the beautiful view of the Black Mountains. The location was fantastic and a great option to the standard hotel view. While there are other locations with a mountain view in the area, Mount Mitchell Eco Retreat surpasses them in the acreage of privacy and uninterrupted views of the mountains.
Quiet, comfortable rooms with beautiful views. Nice kitchen, dining and gathering area making it easy to prepare meals without having to drag out to eat. Peaceful retreat. Will definitely stay here again.
The place is absolutely beautiful. So comfortable and compared to all the locations around the area priced unbeatable. My husband and i will be returning and bringing our kids next time.
This was such a beautiful and peaceful plays to stay. The lady that welcomed us was super nice and even suggested some good food places. Would stay again!!!!
This is off the beaten path so be prepared and stock up on snacks/food before you get there. I stayed in Pisgah and the room was very spacious, ridiculously clean (cleaner than many of the nice chain hotels I have stayed at), and super cute. It came with a white noise machine that was needed as you can hear your neighbors (I heard mine snoring). There is parking right next to the cabin. WiFi worked great. The biggest *complaint* was I never saw the resident dogs. I was looking forward to petting them!
