Fantastic place to unplug for a while. There is no cell service, which makes it even better. The room had a fantastic view. The lodge was cozy and warm. The hemlocks are walking distance. The place is a breath of fresh air. The only issue we ran into was that the room had no trash bags - we checked every drawer and cabinet.

A great Place to Stay

The Eco Retreat's location is amazing. The retreat provides an awesome communal cooking arrangement steps away from the beautiful view of the Black Mountains. The location was fantastic and a great option to the standard hotel view. While there are other locations with a mountain view in the area, Mount Mitchell Eco Retreat surpasses them in the acreage of privacy and uninterrupted views of the mountains.

I want to put a bad review so no one else will come find this amazing gem, but I can't! It is simply a breathtaking view! The rooms are clean and bed super comfortable. Dining room is huge and coffee/tea provided. We met some lovely couples and even shared a breakfast together one morning and stargazed too. Perfect place for a wedding or family reunion or church retreat! We will def be back again!

Great cozy spot in the mountains. We really enjoyed meeting up with our travel companions in the mornings and evenings in the Main Lodge. Next time we stay we'll take advantage of the kitchen facilities but we enjoyed the hot chocolate, tea and coffee during our stay. The rooms were immaculate and adorable, beds were comfortable.

This is off the beaten path so be prepared and stock up on snacks/food before you get there. I stayed in Pisgah and the room was very spacious, ridiculously clean (cleaner than many of the nice chain hotels I have stayed at), and super cute. It came with a white noise machine that was needed as you can hear your neighbors (I heard mine snoring). There is parking right next to the cabin. WiFi worked great. The biggest *complaint* was I never saw the resident dogs. I was looking forward to petting them!

Little escape

This was one of the most coziest little places I’ve been in a while. The owners were very nice and everything about the place and area was calming. We will be returning during the spring. Very kid friendly, if you love the outdoors this is the place for you. The views are breathtaking of the Mountains.

Good stay, hidden gem,

It was a family trip, loved this hidden gem, the property is very well maintained and clean, especially the rooms and the main kitchen area is awesome! Overall the owners took effort to give it an artistic touch! Overall we are enjoyed the stay, looks like hurricane and the wildfires damaged and the town is recovering well! One small recommendation to the owners is to watch the dog on property, it did scare my wife when it ran towards us, it became friendly eventually! Overall stay and service was good, would love to return again! Thanks
