A romantic weekend or family time with long-range views and privacy. Roaring Fork Chalet is named after the 200 ft. waterfall directly behind the chalet. In the winter you can hear the waterfalls and the relaxing effects are something only Mt Mitchell can bring to your soul.
In the summer you can escape the heat and cool yourself off in the high mountains of the Great Smoky National Forest which borders the property line.
The chalet has a loft master bedroom with a locally grown and built red cedar king-size log bed. In the mornings you wake up to a beautiful view of Mt. Mitchell and the huge valley below.
Sip your coffee as the clean cool mountain air gently wakes you up. A k-cup and brew combination coffee makes provides you with endless java.
Hike some of the local trails which are everywhere. Wade in the mountain creeks and rivers in the cool mountain water.
Visit some of the most scenic waterfalls in the world as there are three very close to the chalet. Roaring Fork Falls, Setrock Falls, and Crabtree Creek Falls are all less than ten minutes away.

Storm cancelled
We had reservations on a long weekend that coincided with a storm that came in and dropped a lot of snow. The only road in and out was a steep road with many narrow switchbacks. Initially the owner asked if we would like to cancel but we said we were still interested in staying but would change our mind if we got there and it seemed unsafe. After arriving we decided not to stay and immediately packed up and left. We then asked the owner to consider a future credit, and he completely stopped responding. We did not ask for a refund, only a partial credit for a future stay. We are very disappointed in missing out on our vacation, made worse by this property owner’s lack of accommodation to what he clearly knew was going to be an unsafe situation.
It was a welcome retreat. We could darken the bedroom downstairs and sleep like bears, no noise, no alarms. Wonderful deck and easy kitchen. Some kitchen appliances were not cleaned so well, so I did it, and we didn't have TP. Ug. Long drive to town and groceries. Do it before you go. Loved the atmosphere and the kindness of the manager.
Our group of high school best friends hiked Mt Mitchell for our annual trip. This sweet little cabin was perfect for our needs with a great location. The check in and arrival process was so EASY and seamless. The property was well maintained. And the cabin was really well stocked. The downstairs bedroom was a little warm - even with the windows open, could use a small fan. The drive up to the cabin is a bit eye popping - really steep road! Glad we weren't driving in bad weather or the dark. However, we loved the privacy and wooded view from the lovely deck. Overall, it was perfect for us and we'd definitely consider staying again.
I am Ron the owner. I live in nearby Asheville, and I enjoy hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and exploring the mountains with my chocolate lab Nellie.
Why they chose this property
I stayed at a cabin in the same subdivision for years. On one of my trips to the vacation cabin, I passed a For Sale sign. I immediately called the Realtor and purchased the chalet that day in June of 2006.
It's been my secret ever since. A place to escape the bore of the office, traffic, noise, people, and everyday routines.
Now, I share it with other like-minded people. It's an honor to share it with ya'll!
What makes this property unique
Roaring Fork Chalet is unique in that it's located in a quiet subdivision but has the feel of being in the woods. The chalet is surrounded by woods with no homes visible. The neighborhood is only 110 homes of which close to 100 are seasonal.
The layout is rich with natural hardwood floors, pine walls, and ceilings with a minimalistic feel.
