Blue Ridge Panoramas | Hot Tub | Game Room | Hiking Trails Enjoy a front row seat to Mount Mitchell, the highest peak east of the Mississippi. Greet the morning on an expansive deck and watch the sun peek up over distant ridges. From its handcrafted details (think aspen bed frames and rough-hewn log construction) to its secret outdoor spots (like a mountain-view fire pit and a private hot tub), every inch of Mitchell View will bring you a little bit of joy. From its handcrafted details (think sassafras bed frames and rough-hewn log construction) to its secret outdoor spots (like a mountain-view fire pit and a private hot tub), every inch of Mitchell View will bring you a little bit of joy. Greet the morning on an expansive deck and watch the sun peek up over distant ridges. Then prepare a hearty breakfast feast for your crew in a country-style kitchen. Serve it in an open dining area while you plot your day’s adventures. Not even rain can ruin your fun here: just put a movie on the flat-screen TV, cozy up to the stone fireplace, and admire storm clouds rolling in over the mountains. As for the little ones—they could spend hours facing off on the air-hockey table. When it comes to evening relaxation, bring a glass of wine out to the bubbling hot tub or wager a friendly bet at the cards and bumper pool table in the downstairs game room. A TRUE MOUNTAIN GETAWAY Postcard-perfect panoramas await on the spacious deck. Just bring your morning coffee or evening cocktail to the rocking chairs for front row seats to Mount Mitchell. Or sink into the hot tub and admire the rolling Blue Ridge (an especially enchanting experience during fall foliage season or a winter snow). Meals in the mountains are best enjoyed alfresco—fire up the grill and prepare a feast while the rest of the group plays yard games or simply soaks in the sunshine. When you’re ready to stretch your legs, bring the kids (and pup—this getaway is dog-friendly!) for a hike on the trails along Glade Creek. End your day of adventure with chit-chat around the campfire and under the stars.
