Pisgah Ranger District and Sliding Rock
For our more adventurous guests, South of Asheville you'll find the Ranger District. Here you will be able to slide down a 60-foot all natural water slide in the middle of Pisgah National Forest before landing into a pool of water. Moore Cove Falls Trial and Looking Glass Falls are beginner level hikes close by!
Tee It Up!
You know we love our golf time - even if we are beginners! In Asheville, you'll find more than 40 championship golf courses in the area. Molly's favorites are The Omni Grove Park Inn (designed by Donald Ross!) and Crowne Plaza Resort golf course for those wanting city views.
Food!
There are no shortages of good places to eat in the area, and Asheville is lovingly referred to as Foodtopia. Our top spot each time we visit is 12 Bones, and always get the blueberry chipotle sauce!
River Arts District
Along the riverbank of the French Broad, explore old industrial warehouses now filled with artist studios. Watch live exhibits, view endless galleries, and even get hands on with many of the interactive programs available! There are also many of the most famous breweries and restaurants in this neighborhood, the perfect pit stop between the galleries.
Hot Springs
Feel the love while celebrating ours! North of Asheville, you will find the small town of Hot Springs where you can relax in the hot waters of natural mineral baths since 1778. Please check before booking, as this area experience extensive damage during Hurricane Helene and we want our guests to travel safely.
