About this property

Acorn : Cozy Tiny Home Nestled in the Forest

Purposefully designed with wellness and sustainability in mind, this charming tiny home offers a serene mountain escape in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Nestled at 3,000 feet elevation on 60 acres of private, spring-laden land, Acorn provides a peaceful retreat surrounded by towering Black Locust, Pine, and Poplar trees.

Perfect for couples seeking relaxation and immersion in nature, this cozy home sleeps two and features a lofted bed, a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, and breathtaking forest views. The property is a sanctuary for diverse wildlife, including deer, turkey, fox, and even the occasional bear.

Amenities & Key Features:

✔ Secluded & Scenic: Tucked away in a private hollow, offering tranquility and stunning natural surroundings.
✔ Fire Pit & Outdoor Relaxation: Enjoy evenings by the fire under a canopy of trees.
✔ Cozy Interior: Thoughtfully designed tiny home with warm, inviting décor.
✔ Sleeping Arrangements: Lofted bed for a cozy retreat (requires ladder access) & convertible couch bed for those preferring ground-level sleeping.
✔ Eco-Friendly Focus: Built with sustainability and wellness at its core.
✔ Nature Lover’s Paradise: Immerse yourself in the sounds of the forest and enjoy nearby hiking trails.
✔ Easy Access to Asheville: A short drive to vibrant shops, dining, and cultural experiences.

Important Notes:

Access & Parking: Parking is not available directly at the home; a short walk is
required. Upon request (with 48-hour notice), we may be able to assist with bags using our Kawasaki Mule. A vehicle with four-wheel drive is required to navigate to the property. Please message us with any questions.

Mobility Considerations: The loft bed requires climbing a ladder, which may not be suitable for those with mobility challenges. A convertible couch bed is available as an alternative.

No Pets Allowed: As much as we love animals, we cannot accommodate pets.

Adults Only: Due to safety concerns with the loft, this rental is not recommended for children.

Loft Ceiling Height: The loft has a low ceiling, which may not be ideal for those with severe claustrophobia.

For any questions or assistance during your stay, please message us through the VRBO portal. We look forward to hosting you at Fire Creek Retreat!

Little house, big vacation

The property was very beautiful and the hosts were incredibly helpful when we couldn’t make it through the snow on our own!
