Engadine Inn And Cabins At Honey Hill is set in the mountains just west of Asheville, North Carolina. It is conveniently located just 15 minutes from downtown and the Biltmore Estate and a short drive to some of the area’s most popular attractions and destinations: the Blue Ridge Parkway, the North Carolina Arboretum, the Thomas Wolf Memorial State Historic Site, a network of hiking trails (including the Appalachian Trail), kayak and whitewater rafting experiences, a vibrant arts and cultural community, and local restaurants, cafes, coffee shops...and more.

Here are some of the beautiful rooms in the Inn.

We love all of the antiques, hardwood floors and decor.

Here is a reminder of the gorgeous and generous views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Even at twilight, the views are enchanting.

Mt. Mitchell Cabin. We loved our stay here. You see lots of privacy and spacious views.

Hot Air Balloons were a real treat to see Sunday morning!

Here you can see the beautiful Victorian porches and deck of the Engadine Inn. We loved this architecture. So happy this is preserved and everyone can enjoy it!

Here is a brief history of Engadine.

Engadine was built in 1885...10 years before the construction of the Biltmore Estate.
Engadine is on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1885!
Located just 15 minutes from the urban center of Asheville, Engadine is a country retreat offering luxury accommodations in 5 bed and breakfast rooms in the Inn or in 6 mountain cabins on the 12 acre property.
The Inn is reserved for adults only, but our Cabins are family friendly and some are also pet friendly.

Engadine's original builder was named Captain John Keais Hoyt. He was a former Confederate Officer in Company K, 3rd Alabama Infantry in Stonewall Jackson's Brigade, after the Civil War ended. That is so awesome! We loved learning how history effects places we travel to today! Captain Hoyt named Engadine the original name because it reminded Hoyt of the Engadine Valley in Switzerland. This was a special place to him. He had Engadine built for his family after the Civil War and the family moved into the house in 1895.

Rick and Tom, the new owners, are excited to bring the historic name of Honey Hill back to Engadine making it full circle to the historic, original name Engadine Inn and Cabins.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Engadine Inn & Cabins. It was truly a time of refreshing and family time. We love the mountains so the 12 acre property gave us the feeling of being on our own mountain.

We stayed in the Mt. Mitchell Log Cabin. It is the only cabin that will accommodate up to 6 people. This cabin was beautiful! It had beautiful hardwood floors throughout. There are 2 private bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms with showers and bath. The Upstairs master bath has a jacuzzi tub. The full kitchen had all the necessary cooking supplies, a full refrigerator and microwave.

All the cabins have a wood burning fireplace that can be used from October 15 through March 15, which is a huge plus for Boulder Mountain Man. Being from Colorado, he loves the "real deal!"

The Deck of the Mt. Mitchell Cabin was spectacular. Our views were breathtaking as the Fall Leaves were turning across the Blue Ridge Mountains. We ate breakfast on the deck and enjoyed the mountain air and amazing views.

Here is the eat in kitchen of the Cabin. We loved the Owl and Butterfly theme throughout! I have to say we ate our Breakfasts on the Deck! :) This is great, too.

We opted for the Continental Breakfast in the Cabin. This lovely basket of fruit and gourmet muffins awaited us with orange juice, greek yogurt and coffee.

The rooms in our cabin had a real fun and mountain feel. We loved this handmade quilt displayed here.

The bathrooms were spacious and had all the amenities. This is my kind of 'camping' with fresh towels a plenty, luxury toiletries and more.

The master bedroom was spacious and had the comfort of a luxury hotel. Or home.

The log cabin wood feel was fun. Spa Selfie! :)

Speaking of spa, the hot tub, jacuzzi was perfect after hiking and touring the mountains.

Rick gave a warm welcome and knows all about Engadine and is ready to help accommodate you and your group / guests.

Since Engadine is so near Asheville, here are a few things about Asheville that you have to explore:

Offers a burgeoning smorgasbord of restaurant and micro brewery experiences for "foodies' to choose from
Offers surprisingly broad selection of arts and cultural experiences...from folk art to fine art, performances by a diverse spectrum of musicians and regional theatre groups and an eclectic mix of museums.
Offers visitors a collection of world class tourist attractions and outdoor activities to enjoy...visiting Biltmore, driving the Blue Ridge Parkway, sight seeing in the Great Smoky Mountains Park, hiking the Appalachian Trail, rafting the French Broad River, etc.

We loved the Picnic Lunch available to take on the ABBA Artisan Tour. This was arranged by Engadine Inn and was ideal so we could enjoy the mountains, the artists and not worry about finding a restaurant or cafe.

ABBA© Artisan Tour in Leister, NC. We loved the beautiful mountain drive. We enjoyed our tasty gourmet Picnic from Engadine at a stop at the Leister Community Center where our boys played basketball with the mountains as the backdrop.

There are many stops along the way of the ABBA Artisan Tour.

We enjoyed every bit of our stay. Our boys romped around until their hearts content!

These are the good ole days. I love to capture the moments when we're together. It was such a wonderful Anniversary Getaway for the four of us.

Asheville Engadine Weddings:

We enjoyed the most beautiful Sunset at Engadine to celebrate our 17th Anniversary!

The is the beautiful meadow and Sunset area where Engadine will host Weddings.

Here in this meadow you can enjoy Sunsets and a stunning outdoor Wedding locale.

We all enjoyed the Sunset.... this picture makes my heart happy. My world and I enjoying our Anniversary!

We enjoyed a little time to ourselves ...

... while the boys enjoyed night vision Nerf football! On the Mountain. :)

We loved all of the beautiful views here. I had to capture this of my guys enjoying our stay. This was right after the beautiful Hot Air Balloons launched and floated toward Asheville !

Oh, the memories. I love capturing moments with my boys. I am so thankful to be their Mom.
