Soak under the stars in one of our spring water hot tubs. Swim laps in our spring water pool. Fall asleep to the sound of crickets and wake to the sound of birds. Camp out in one of our two tiny glamping cabins, your camper van or tent in a hidden 20-acre food forest 17 minutes from Asheville, North Carolina. Your hosts, Brad and Sara, live in the middle of the forest, which is hidden away from our neighbors at the end of our road, up a long-gated driveway. Each campsite has its own firepit.*Prices are discounted for the fall and winter to accommodate people displaced by Hurricane Helene and volunteers helping with clean up! We were very lucky to have little damage here, and are also grateful for tourists, who want to come soak in hot spring water and watch the leaves change in all their spectacular glory! The "Spring House" has spring water on tap and a deep soaking bathtub with tankless hot water (along with a beautiful view of the forest canopy from your tub!) Optional outdoor spring water hot tub can be filled for you for $40 extra for short stays. (For stays longer than 2 days, we will add $10 a day for electricity and continued cleaning of the hot tub.) Salted spring water pool open April-October The tiny house is across the driveway from your host’s house, with our "wineberry" walking trail is right behind it. The Spring House has a hot plate, toaster oven, mini fridge, a couple of dishes, utensils, pot and pan and pour over coffee, but no kitchen sink, for light cooking! Dishes can be washed in the bathtub or bathroom sink. Your hosts are also happy to make you a delicious local. organic breakfast for an extra charge. Comfortable Tempurpedic queen bed and tiny couch that could sleep a small child. We also have a twin sized foldout memory foam mat if want to squeeze an extra person in. This is a gated 20-acre food forest. It is very dark here at night, and we like it that way for stargazing and firefly viewing. We have firewood available for $10 for a hardwood bundle. We have two short hiking trails in the backyard as well. We also have a spring water pool and berry picking in the summer. Pets are welcome for an extra cleaning fee of $30 to be paid on or before arrival!

Spring House Tiny Cabin

Just what I needed! I recently volunteered in WNC and didn’t want to drive all the way back home after mucking out a basement all day. The cabin was so cute and comfy and COMPLETELY ACCESSIBLE. There are restaurants and grocery stores nearby that are fully functioning and open. I can’t say enough about the hosts! They answered all of my questions right away and were more than accommodating. Sara loaned me a charger , extra trash bags and even made me a cup of coffee in the morning while we took a moment to reflect on the recent tragedy in WNC. If you are in the area working or volunteering please consider staying at one of these cabins. Not only is it a cozy stay, but you will also be helping the community to get back on their feet! 🙏

Secluded glamping experience

Everything here was the prefect little getaway we needed! We booked the same night we stayed and everything was delightful. The hot tub was exactly what we needed after a long drive and the wildlife we heard was the cherry on top. 10/10 would visit again.

Lovely stay, great hosts

Sara and Bradley’s spot was so cozy and comfortable. Absolutely loved my stay. Very responsive and the breakfast was so delicious! As was the spring water! I love their organic lifestyle. Would definitely return.
