Whimsical Mountain Roundhouse Among the Trees

Less than 2 miles from Wolf Ridge ski lodge!
All the whimsy and excitement of a mountain treehouse with the comfort of a modern home. This “roundette” is perched nearly a mile above sea level, surrounded by towering spruce and fir trees, in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Though it’s a quick 40 minute drive to the vibrant Asheville downtown, it truly feels like a private wilderness oasis.

4WD/AWD is recommended during winter months. Read more below.

The architecture of this house is truly unique, with curved walls and high, vaulted ceilings. Walls of windows welcome in lots of natural light, and envelop you in the natural beauty of the trees and mountains. The open floor plan includes a bright and clean full kitchen, a living space with smart television and fireplace, two bedrooms, one full bath, and one half bath. Outside, the wraparound porch is the ideal place for a morning coffee or evening beverage, and has a gas grill for cooking if you choose to do so. The home features a washer and dryer as well as an air-conditioning and heating system for year round comfort. Access to this unique home is via a set of stairs that lead to the front porch and door, which should be considered for those presenting with physical limitations. A security camera is set up to monitor the driveway to the entrance.

The cabin resides within the 5,000 acres of land that comprise Wolf Laurel Resort. As part of your stay, you will also receive access to the Village Club. Benefits include a heated seasonal outdoor pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, trout pond, children’s playground, yoga classes and more.

Miles of trails surround the home, with private access to the Appalachian Trail and Big Bald, which is the highest local summit at 5,516 feet, and where you’ll experience arguably the best 360° views around. The area is also rich with additional outdoor activities including skiing, swimming, horseback riding, zip lining, and rafting.

You will enjoy access to the entire home during your stay. For your convenience, the house is set up for contactless self check-in with keyless entry. A unique code will be generated for the length of your stay that will unlock the main door. Entry point to Wolf Laurel Resort is gated with a staffed attendant. Booked guests will check in with the attendant for access.

The primary roads in Wolf Laurel are paved, but the secondary roads are gravel. All roads are well maintained by the full time staff but remember these are mountain roads and mountain driving conditions. You will will need to take your time and navigate slowly. Most cars of all sizes can easily drive the roads in the no-winter months, but sports cars that have especially low clearance are not recommended. Also, motorcycles are not allowed in the community so please plan accordingly.

Winter:
We are thrilled to welcome guest year round but please be advised:
4WD/AWD is highly recommended during winter months. If you are not comfortable with possible winter driving conditions, travel insurance my be worth looking into. There are winter days in Wolf Laurel when I am comfortable driving a Honda Civic around, and there are days when the only thing I would want to be driving is a plow truck. Most days fall somewhere in-between.

In my opinion, winter in the mountains is best when not rushed so I recommend planning to arrive with plenty of food and supply's so that when the snow does start to fall you get to cozy up by the fireplace and enjoy your winter getaway!

Though the WIFI is strong, Wolf Laurel Resort has spotty cell service throughout the community. WIFI calling is available in the home and you may have regular cell service on the property but it is not guaranteed.
