About Us
This is our third bed and breakfast inn, and our aim is still the same: We specialize in stress reduction. The huge porches invite you to sit and enjoy the mountain views, the multitude of birds, and the breeze that always blows across our hilltop.
The inn holds our collection of antique furnishings, paintings, and accessories, which represent 25 years of searching. Appropriately for a Queen Anne Victorian house, many of the pieces are in the Queen Anne style.
Full breakfasts include a number of specialties like raspberry croissants in an almond custard, frittatas, puffed apple French toast, freshly-baked breads and muffins, and specialty coffees and teas. We're here to guide you on your expeditions to the exciting Asheville area, and to introduce you to our town's wonderful restaurants.
We host a few weddings a year on a very small scale (no more than 25 people). The newly renovated gardens are a nice setting (we hope this year to finish the lower terraces with steps and a gazebo for a nice ceremony site).
To answer one popular question: the renovation of the house took more than four years, and we opened in September, 2001. And, no, there were no furnishings or accessories left. Everything you see we have collected over the years. You can read the history of the house here.
