The chalet is in a very convenient location. During these uncertain times, being able to prepare meals at the chalet, in my opinion, is a huge plus. Guest can have a vacation while also staying socially distanced. We hope to see you again soon.

Why they chose this property

Whatever season you choose has its special beauty. Springtime brings its new promise of blossoms and green. Summertime at 4,000 feet elevation gives wonderful mountain breezes and the exquisite profusion of white and pink rhododendron. Autumn brings the explosion of fall colors to Avery County mountains and winter brings the pristine quiet snow and skiing/snowboarding at Sugar or Beech Mountain close by.

What makes this property unique

- all the modern conveniences of home
- close to restaurants, shops and outdoor activities
- close to Grandfather mountain, Linville Falls and the Blue Ridge Parkway
- close to 5 area ski hills
- hiking on site, swimming pool, paddle boats, fishing and golf
- 2 miles from YMCA with all indoor amenities including water park for the kids
