About this property

Step into the Howell Suite at Engadine Inn, where Victorian charm and modern comfort converge in one of our most spacious historic rooms. This oversized second-floor suite features a queen bed, fireside sitting area, and plenty of room to unwind after a day exploring the mountains.

Historic Touch
Originally one of the bedrooms belonging to Captain Hoyt’s daughters (circa 1900), this room preserves touches of Engadine’s storied past. The Howells — who owned the house for many years — carried forward the legacy of restoration and care, blending old with new as they maintained the home’s character.

Bed & Breakfast Experience
Your stay includes a complimentary homemade breakfast each morning in the dining room of this historic inn. It’s part of the full inn experience — relaxing communal spaces, a sense of connection, and a touch of hospitality rooted in the Hoyt family tradition.

Scenic & Setting Features
Wake to gentle mountain views and the distant whisper of Hominy Creek. Step outside and breathe deeply on the wraparound porches, wander the garden paths, or follow nearby hiking trails into the Blue Ridge. With Asheville just minutes away, you get both solitude and city adventure.

About the host

Hosted by Engadine Inn and Cabins

We are the hosts and owners of Engadine Inn & Cabins in the Blue Ridge Mountains, where history, comfort, and natural beauty come together. Our passion is creating warm, welcoming spaces for couples, families, and groups to relax and explore Asheville and the surrounding area. We look forward to sharing our favorite trails, dining spots, and local experiences to make your stay unforgettable.

Why they chose this property

Engadine Inn and Cabins offers the perfect balance of mountain serenity and easy access to Asheville’s vibrant culture. Engadine Inn & Cabins sits on 12 acres of rolling hills with sweeping Blue Ridge Mountain views, giving guests the sense of a private retreat while still being only minutes from restaurants, breweries, and the Biltmore Estate. What we enjoy most is watching the sun rise and set over the mountains, walking the on-site trails, and sharing this peaceful slice of Western North Carolina with travelers who want to experience both adventure and relaxation.

What makes this property unique

What makes Engadine Inn & Cabins stand out is its remarkable history. In the late 1800s, this property served as one of the original vineyards for the nearby Biltmore Estate, America’s largest home. Today, guests can still feel that legacy while staying in a beautifully preserved 1885 Queen Anne Victorian home listed on the National Historic Register, surrounded by 12 acres of rolling hills, mountain views, and private cabins. Engadine offers more than just lodging. It is a chance to experience a piece of Asheville’s history while enjoying modern comfort in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
