We thought this was an amazing place to stay. It was very peaceful and quiet. The best hot tub that we’ve been into with a very relaxing view every night. The horses Duke and Daisy were a huge hit with our toddler and they added to the peaceful scenery. We also thought this was a great location as we were 15 to 20 minutes from all activities in Asheville and we also were about 10 to 15 minutes from some good hiking. There’s two grocery stores within five minutes. We also found a playground within five minutes that our toddler loved. The playground is in a neighborhood so I’m not sure its open to the public but we used it without any problems. Our favorite place to eat was Sandhill kitchen. It’s in a gas station but don’t be deterred as it has amazing chicken sandwiches. The Nature Center in Asheville was a perfect little zoo for a toddler. Pisgah National Forest is within 15 minutes. We did the pine tree loop with our toddler and infant and it was a perfect length and skill level for us.
