About this house rental

Welcome to your very own piece of paradise only 15 minutes from Asheville, North Carolina where you will enjoy your time away from the cares of this world. Located on a 150 acre gated estate, Wintersun sets itself apart from other mountain homes.

As soon as you drive through the gates, you will pass a rushing trout stream, drive through a lush green valley, cross over the bridge by the trickle down ponds, pass the horses playing in a mountain meadow and drive up and away to the fern and flower-bedecked verandah, which offers a comfortable seat and a breathtaking view.

The environment is a contrast in expansiveness and intimacy. From the verandah mountain ranges recede into smoky blue shadows, while on the arbor side the stone garden climbs 50 feet flanking a 24-foot waterfall surrounded by an enclosed lawn.

Inside the elegant country home are spacious rooms furnished with oriental rugs, antiques, huge stone fireplaces, books galore, with deep chairs and sofas for leisurely pursuits. All 5 of Wintersun's bedrooms are beautifully appointed with fine furnishings, designer fabrics, lush linens, down comforters, private baths, cozy seating, and fireplaces, with fabulous views of the blue ridge mountains.

For disc golf lovers, in addition to 4 miles of private hiking trails there are 2 private disc golf courses which have been rated as one of the best private courses on the east coast.

We reserved Wintersun to celebrate our mom's 90th birthday. The porches, views, trails, and wildlife made the celebration extra special. We found most of the trails to be very well maintained. Landscaping is also quite impressive. (Nice work, Alex and crew!) We enjoyed seeing wild turkeys on the main lawn each morning/evening. Staff were very responsive and helpful (no problems, just questions!). Neighbors stopped to help us take photographs. I can't wait to go back. Judy and her staff have earned all the accolades possible.

Wintersun met all our expectations. We were looking for a place where our family could get together and enjoy all that Asheville has to offer and reconnect with friends. The property has many hiking trails and provides plenty of space for guests to enjoy quiet time.

Our family rented both the Inn and the Cottage on this gorgeous 180 acre property for one week in June... for our daughter's nearby wedding in Fairview. The Inn is even better than the photos. Beyond description. Beautifully decorated, lovingly maintained, all details taken into account. We had almost all dinners in the large dining room - seats 10 easily. And the kitchen amazed us.. ample seating for family and friends to relax. Our favorite area is the front porch... lounge chairs and chaises and more. We could relax and watch the fireflies, enjoy the full moon rising, and the horses in Judy's pasture nearby. Very private gated property with a 3/4 mile driveway. We walked and ran the 4 miles of trails, explored the labyrinth, played disc golf, fished in the stocked trout stream. This is by far the best Vrbo we have ever experienced. It felt like Narnia... and there is even a large wardrobe or two. :) Two beautiful bears ambled by - one in the meadow and one by the waterfall.. magical. We hope to return with our family in the future. Thank you, Judy, for making our outstanding wedding week even more memorable. Lou from Colorado

We had an absolutely amazing time staying at Wintersun for a long weekend and an intimate wedding. The grounds and house exceeded all expectations from the listing and our research. The house was truly incredible, offering plenty of room for us to gather together while also providing spaces for privacy. The grounds were breathtakingly beautiful, exceptionally quiet, and peaceful. We will definitely be returning one day in the future and are grateful to Judy for allowing us to use Wintersun for an absolutely incredible weekend.

I returned to Asheville for my 30 year high school reunion with a group of close friends. Wintersun was an amazing location that offered so many options. Sitting on the front porch and simply enjoying the views (which included wild turkeys, deer, hawks and a local horse) while catching up with old friends was likely my favorite. The trout filled stream, frisbee golf courses and hiking paths were some of the other enjoyed amenities. Perfect spot and this group will return for sure. Thank you for sharing your beautiful and special property!

Incredible property with a short but interesting history of its development. Custom built to be a resort retreat for Non-Profit executives/employees. Operated as a high end B&B / Inn for over a decade. Every bedroom has a full bathroom and every room has a working gas fireplace. Beautifully landscaped and very well cared for.
