High Top Mountain Retreat by Carolina Mornings | Hot Tub & Sauna🧖+Biltmore Pass

Ready to leave your worries at the door and step into a sumptuous vacation? Experience the best of Asheville at High Top Mountain Retreat, an elegant modern lodge featuring year-round views of Mount Pisgah and a luxury spa area with a hot tub and sauna. The great room's expanse of windows, soaring wood ceilings, and two-story stone hearth take center stage in a home that has been meticulously designed to provide the ultimate in comfort. Find your favorite spot to take in the million-dollar view -- it's visible from nearly every room in the house, including the main-level bedroom suite where you'll wake up to a mountain vista out the window. The fully equipped kitchen, designed with functionality and elegance in mind, is a wonderful place to prepare meals with gorgeous custom cherry cabinets, double ovens, and extra counter space, along with a granite wet bar with leather barstools. After a long day of mountain adventures, kick back in the lower level living area where the woodstove will warm your bones while you watch the huge TV. Each room at High Top Mountain Retreat shows special attention to detail, including original artwork, professional decor, and high-end furnishings. The main level suite's bathroom boasts breathtaking cuts of green marble in the countertops and shower, cherry cabinets to match the kitchen, and a deep soak tub worthy of a long bubble bath. On the lower level, two spacious bedrooms share a full bath and access to the patio. Lounge outdoors on the wrap-around deck or in the spa area that's tucked away on the side of the house and features an outdoor shower for rinsing. You'll feel refreshed and ready to relax after a cleansing sit in the sauna followed by a dip in the hot tub. The raised fire pit is perfect for creating family time or a romantic evening with your loved one. Offering both the seclusion of wooded privacy and the security of a neighborhood location, High Top Mountain Retreat enjoys a paved driveway for all-weather access and is remarkably close to groceries and restaurants. For guests that are movement impaired, this home offers a large driveway for accessible parking and a step-free entrance on the lower level giving easy access to two bedrooms and a bathroom.

Beautiful Home with CAMERAS

We had 8 guests stay at this location for a weekend retreat away. The home itself is beautiful. Master bedroom on the top level with a king size bed, marble shower and jacuzzi, and a small pull out couch. Downstairs is a queen, a full, and a king pull-out. The house says it sleeps 8, which is true with the pull out couches… but speaking “beds” there are only 3 bedrooms, something to be aware of if people want privacy when sleeping. The sauna was my favorite part, but it only stays on for an hour and takes multiple hours to get above 100F. Overall we enjoyed our time. There were NOT enough towels, barely any extra blankets, and we used all of the toilet paper. For the amount of guests AND having a hot tub / sauna, I would have thought there’d be more towels and toilet paper. There was also no Fire wood for the outdoor fire pit. An important thing to know is that the owners are watching the camera footage. I was texted with a concern that there were more than 8 guests in the house, when I asked why, I was told that the owners saw 7 cars in the driveway via the security camera. This made me feel very uncomfortable for the duration of the stay. So beware that the cameras aren’t just for an emergency, we are being watched.

Fabulous!

This house is beautiful - inside and out. Views and location are great! Total privacy! Hot tub, sauna and fire pit a huge plus! Very comfortable furniture. Only recommendation would be to equip kitchen and bathooms - re: aluminum foil, ziplocs, serving dishes, more towels etc... Incredible house - we can't wait to vacation here again!!
