About this property

Romantic Rural Retreat/Hot tub/Fishing/Pond view/Woods/Private

Just minutes from shopping, dining, entertainment and outdoor adventures, this rural retreat in the Avery’s Creek Community is a sanctuary of peacefulness. Along with the horses in the pasture you are bound to see wild turkeys and deer and hear bull frogs on summer nights.
Your Private Hot Tub is on a covered porch with a spectacular view of the mountains from the spacious lounge seats. This spa hot tub features 31 jets and 2 full body seats.

Your fully equipped private bungalow overlooks our private fishing pond and horse pasture. You can take a short hike on the wooded property, fish for trout, bass and brim or plan your day sipping coffee on the porch and end it sitting around a warm campfire sharing stories from your day’s adventure.

This convenient location is ideal for the outdoor enthusiast. Your romantic get-away is located just 10 minutes from the Mountains to Sea Trail, water sports on the French Broad River, hiking and biking at Bent Creek and the NC Arboretum.

Perfect honeymoon getaway
My wife and I loved the location. It felt quiet and secluded while still being close by everything. The property was beautifully situated on a pond and the cabin had everything you could want for a relaxing getaway. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch and hot tub. The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable.

About the host

Hosted by Heaven's Gate Escape/Donna Ensley

Host profile image
Donna and Curtis Ensley. Curtis is a native of this area and after working for GE and traveling the world he returned home to his roots to raise a family. He has hiked, fished and ridden horses in just about every area in this region. He also loves working on the farm. I have been in the area for 35 years and we have been married since 2011. Together we enjoy tending our vegetable gardens, riding and playing with the horses, hiking and boating. He is an avid golfer and I have clubs but would rather spend the day in the woods than on the golf course.

We thought we would try sharing the beauty of nature paradise with others using VRBO.

Why they chose this property

Curtis bought this beautiful property more than 40 years ago. He built a house around the original farm house that is more than 100 years old. The cabin has been fully updated and served as a guest house and rental property prior to using it for a VRBO.

What makes this property unique

There is fishing on the property in our private pond. It is stocked with Trout, Bass and Brim. Bring your own gear.
Long range mountain views, a private hiking trail in the woods behind our barn with deer, turkey and occasional bears on the property. The private screened in porch overlooks the pond. The cabin has a grill, fire pit and hot tub featuring 32 jets with 2 full lounging positions. We are minutes from shopping, dining, hiking, mountain biking and 20 minutes from Asheville, however, this cabin is just a great place to hang out and relax.
