Stunning Views: 2 King Suites+Fire Pit+Fast WiFi

Explore. Cook. Create. Relax



Some places are simply where you sleep between adventures. Conley House was designed to be part of the experience. Set on six private acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, the house is filled with natural light, long-range mountain views, lush gardens, original artwork, and thoughtfully chosen details that reflect the character of our region.



Mornings begin with good coffee and views stretching toward Mount Mitchell, the tallest peak east of the Mississippi. In season, hydrangeas, azaleas, herbs, native plants, and tiger lilies fill the landscape with color while fireflies twinkle in the treetops above. Open the doors and welcome the mountain breeze as you settle into the slower rhythm of mountain life.



For those eager to explore, waterfalls, hiking trails, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Penland School of Craft, Sugar Mountain,, and Asheville are all within easy reach. But many guests find themselves lingering a little longer than planned—reading in a cozy corner, baking bread from scratch, cooking the way they do at home (only with a better view), watching the sunset paint the ridges while ribbons of mist trace the river in the valley below, or waiting for fireflies to emerge beneath a dark sky full of stars. Whether you’re here to discover the mountains or simply enjoy the rare luxury of time and space, Conley House offers an authentic and comfortable home base for both.

** The Blue Ridge Parkway is mostly open. However, some sections will not re-open until the fall of 2026.

ABOUT THE HOME

Originally two cabins joined by artist and former Penland director Bill Brown Sr., the home now features two suites and an open, light-filled living area. Many original railings and details remain, including a Doug Sigler-designed kitchen. Its passive-solar design captures warmth and sunlight year-round, framing mountain views from every room. The home features commissioned artwork and handmade pieces that reflect the area’s craft heritage.

VISITING IN THE OFF-SEASON: Winter views are breathtaking! Trails and waterfalls are quiet and serene. Some businesses adjust hours mid-December through February, but others offer pop-ups, events, and winter menus. If you’d like help deciding whether the off-season fits your plans, just ask—we’re happy to help.

CHILDREN: Children are welcome! This is a home, not a museum, but we ask parents to be attentive—move delicate items or cords out of reach as needed for safety.
