Asheville, Smoky Mountains, North Carolina

Looking for a place that you can go to and get away from it all or maybe a place where your family can “reconnect”? Are you looking for a corporate retreat in the mountains that is close to Asheville and other area attractions? Than look no further, you have found just the place. Our home is located in Leicester, just a short 20 minute drive to Asheville (and no scary roads). We have a saying, "Close enough to Asheville to enjoy; and far enough away from Asheville to enjoy!

Come enjoy the spectacular views of rolling knolls and picturesque mountains (70 miles view). Enjoy the quiet of the country where wildlife and wildflowers abound.
The home is situated on 4 acres, has over 3000 square feet of living space and is tastefully decorated. Dogs are allowed with a 2 dog limit. There is a large dog run in the yard plus dog kennels in the garage for when you are not on the premise (if your pet has separation anxiety).

The front porch has two porch swings to enjoy in the morning or the evening, when the fireflies put on their light show. There is a wraparound deck off of the main floor with storybook views to enjoy. There is a large fire pit area also.

The main floor has a large kitchen, perfect for a large get together, a breakfast nook, dining area, living room (wood burning fireplace), and the master bedroom. There is a covered screened in porch off of the living room and master bedroom. Did we mention the wonderful views from the over-sized windows?
The master bedroom has a king size bed. The master bathroom has a large tub and a walk-in shower.

The bottom floor has a professional size Brunswick pool table, a game table and sofa to relax with family and friends. There is a large cement patio where you can enjoy the rocking chairs and a good book.

The third level has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a loft. One bedroom has a queen size bed and the other has twin beds. The loft has a trundle bed that will sleep two. Each of the upstairs bedrooms has a private deck to enjoy the sunrise or sunset.

This house is at the hub of many area attractions such as: 20 Mins to downtown Asheville,The Biltmore Estate 22mins; Close to Chimney Rock; Grandfather Mountain; Gem Mountain; Dollywood (Pigeon Gorge, Tn); Cherokee Indian Reservation; and Maggie Valley to name a few.

There is something for everyone, or just stay on the porch and recharge your batteries. A gazebo is on the property with wonderful views.
WE DO NOT RENT OUT THE PROPERTY FOR PARTIES OR WEDDINGS.
NO smoking (or vaping) allowed in the house, but there is an ashtray in the gazebo.

What an amazing Christmas vacation!!!
We had a wonderful stay! The house was just perfect and more than big enough for my family of five. I felt like the house was bigger and better than the photos show. We stayed during Christmas and the house was decorated beautifully with a tree and Christmas decor. The property is gorgeous and the views are spectacular. There is plenty to do around the house to keep busy and the house is SO well stocked! They seriously thought of everything and there was nothing that we needed, that wasn’t there. The location was perfect for us. We traveled to Asheville, Biltmore, Maggie Valley, Cherokee, Mars Hill & Chimney Rock…..nowhere seemed far. Walker (the neighbor’s dog) came to visit twice……once when we arrived and again on Christmas morning. What a treat! He is just the sweetest and my boys were so excited to see him each time. Sharon was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Excellent rental!
I (and a friend) have rented this property on several occasions over the years. It is the only rental we have returned to! The home is in excellent condition. Property owner is easy to work with. Lots to do in the area—antiquing, hiking, chasing waterfalls, visiting apple orchards, wineries, breweries or just sitting on the back deck enjoying the peaceful view. Looking forward to my next visit!

Perfect getaway
My family and I stayed for 3 weeks and loved every second. The home had everything we needed and felt like a second home by the end of our visit. We loved playing games with our boys (7 and 9), who discovered a love for both the Game of Life and Scattegories during our stay. We explored neighboring towns and visited Asheville most days. We hiked all over the area from Dupont National Forest to Chimney Rock to the Pisgah National Forest and the Great Smokies. The home was the perfect launching spot. Sunset views were the best, and our dog loved napping outside and playing with Walker. We saw deer, bunnies, and turkeys. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful and relaxing
House and grounds were wonderful. Clean , all and well taken care of. Back gazebo was a wonderful place to sit and watch the sunrise and sunset. You have everything in the home you could possibly need. We would sit out on the porch and Walter from down the street would come up and visit Walter is a dog he's cute and friendly you tell him to go home and he goes home. It's out in the mountains you can go into Asheville and Waverly in just a short time. The atmosphere was peaceful and calm we never had a problem with the Wi-Fi it was always in service. They have a campfire where you can do s'mores or a grill where you can just sit outside and Grill and relax The home is stock with plenty of family board games and a. Pool table. My daughters all agree this would be a romantic place to get away to. But also a family place. With deer and turkeys coming in the yard to visit cant miss them. We gave this place a five stars if we could give it more we would we stayed at plenty of rentals but this one was beyond amazing you won't go wrong staying here the owners were wonderful to deal with if you contacted them they answered right away. If you're looking for a romantic giveaway or just a family check out this house I promise you you won't regret it

This is the ideal location for a family vacation. The views are amazing. The home is spacious, but cozy. We found the owners and property managers to be genuinely concerned with us having the best stay! I would recommend this location to all friends and family. We hope to have the opportunity to visit again.

Beautiful and Relaxing Getaway
My parents, my 4yr old and I had a wonderful time at this beautiful and relaxing getaway. The place was very clean and spacious. It had everything we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and the scenery was Amazing. Watching the sunrise over the mountains in the distance was breathtaking. We got up every morning to look out over the balcony for the deer and turkeys in the nearby fields. On our rainy day we enjoyed the games that were provided in the downstairs game room. My son loved the neighbor's golden retriever, Walker so much that we had to go buy him some dog treats and a toy. The neighbor was so sweet and gracious enough to let my 4yr old play with Walker. I can't say enough about this gorgeous home and the mountain it's on. The owners were very easy to get ahold of and answer any questions we had. There is no price tag that could be put on the memories we made here this past week. We definitly want to stay here again.

Great getaway and beautiful home!
Our family takes a week vacation each summer in Asheville and have been trying out each area. This area / portion of Asheville was not our favorite just based on lack of hiking trails and distance from downtown, but this house is gorgeous and we greatly enjoyed it. Everything was in order, clean, and well-stocked. The fire pit was a wonderful evening under the stars for two evenings and many great pool matches within our family (pool table is a Brunswick and in impeccable shape, btw). Great experience for our family also seeing wild turkeys and deer on our property! A wonderful relaxing time for all.

Mountain Paradise
Flying Fish Hill is even better than the pictures and description make it out to be. It exceeded all expectations. The owners have thought of and provided all the extras, making this a truly comfortable home away from home. The kitchen is well stocked with high end appliances and cookware. Lots of comfy living space indoors and out to spend time together or quiet time for yourself. The views from this home are breathtaking - sunsets, sunrises, lightning bugs at dusk, rainbows and wildlife included. It’s worth the drive to get to Asheville and surrounding areas for sightseeing. Book it now. You won’t be sorry!

Beautiful country house outside Asheville
We had a wonderful stay at Flying Fish Hill. It is out there -- 20-30 minutes via winding roads to everything, but it's a lovely area and very peaceful. The sunrises from the back deck are exceptional. Plenty of room for the kids and dog to run around and lots of space in the house. There are lots of things in the kitchen that you can use so it's not bare. The only quirk was the upstairs bathroom is small and the shower was clogged, but the latter issue can obviously be fixed. The dog next door comes over and is indeed friendly -- and we had a couple sightings of the turkey who likes to come to the back yard. Overall, a peaceful retreat that was great for our family. Thank you!

Nice home in the Hills
The home was a nice retreat from the loud city life. Our reason for selecting this home was we were traveling with your 4 month GSP pup and the dog run sounded amazing. The previous talk of an amazing dog named Walker was very true and my 11 year old daughter was sad to leave after being able to spend time with such and amazing Golden Retriever.
