About this property
SecretGardenGetaway: Asheville; Great Smokey Mtns
This cozy, clean, and welcoming "Secret Garden Getaway" apartment is the perfect landing spot for a couple or individual looking for a central location equipped with a full kitchen, patio, and a cozy living room! Soak up the mountain view and enjoy being just 20 mins to Asheville, 20 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the Great Smokey Mtns less than an hour away. You will love all the outdoor adventure and great spots to eat in this area!
The space
HIGHLIGHTED FEATURES:
*20 minute drive to Asheville

*20 mins to the Blue Ridge Parkway and outdoor activities.

*Amazing mtn view from private patio
ABOUT THE SPACE:

*1300 sq ft 1 bedroom/1 bath apartment with full kitchen; living area
*HD smart tv
*Fully equipped bathroom with a walk in shower, plus a blow dryer.
*AC in apartment must but used during warm season; this is not an apartment where windows are used for cooling during the warm season.
SLEEPING:

COOKING:
A fully equipped kitchen with a coffee/tea station, refrigerator, microwave, oven, hot pot and many other things that will allow you to cook meals.
PARKING:

CELL SERVICE/ INTERNET:
The property has fast, strong internet and cell service.
OUTDOOR ACTIVITY:
*The private patio off the apartment is spacious with outdoor seating for lounging and eating. There is also an outdoor fire pit. Wood is available.
*You have access to the "Secret Garden" at the top of the property (signs will guide you). This is a tiered garden that my parents created before "green" was even thought of. They reused materials from the house and also tires to create walls, paths and special places for sitting peacefully or meditating or just reading. You will not be able to tell you are in a small town but feel like you are in a forest.
SURROUNDING AREAS:
*Downtown Canton, a 15 minute walk, has a relaxing brewery on the river, a great used bookstore on main street with comfy couches along with Papertown Coffee right down the street. Jros and Grateful Table on the same street have great food.
*20 Minutes to the east is Asheville, and 15 minutes to the west in Waynesville, you’ll find dining, coffee, music, and nightlife.
*The Blue Ridge Parkway has hiking trails, 20 minutes away, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just an hour away.
*Lots of mountain biking in Asheville or a new park opening up right outside Canton (Chestnut Mountain).
Guest access

Keep in mind the upper part of the house is a fully private apartment, and there is a tiny house in the backyard. Each is private from each other, but you will have others on the property.
