About

Whether you’re in Asheville for your honeymoon or anniversary, to celebrate a recent engagement or pop the question, or for a special birthday or restorative couples weekend, you need a place to stay that’s equal to the occasion. The mission of Sunset Mountain Retreat—and our goal as your hosts—is to elevate your experience in the Land of the Sky. Our modern, round cabin (yes, round!) in the woods isn’t your average luxury vacation rental: Perched atop Town Mountain, it’s just five minutes from downtown’s renowned restaurants, hopping breweries, and inimitable art galleries and boutiques yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle, surrounded by acres of mature forest. Inside, no detail has been spared. Enjoy all the comforts and conveniences of home along with the appointments and amenities you’d expect from a posh hotel.
