Fox Den - Carolina Mornings
Asheville, NC

Vacation Rental Description

Enjoy being right in the middle of the forest with babbling brooks, nature trails, ponds, wooden playgrounds for the kids, beautiful night skies, basketball, hiking, fishing, tennis, or just some ice cream from the local General Store. At Fox Den, there is plenty of room to sleep at least 6 adults and, of course, pets are always welcome. There is also enough to keep everyone in the house happily busy throughout your stay. Guests can enjoy a cup of tea in the gazebo overlooking Wolf Laurel and the surrounding mountains, and cook on the charcoal grill on the large porch. Inside, enjoy one of our many movies on DVD, video, or on cable TV, roast marshmallows and make 'smores in the oversized stone fireplace, out-bluff your friends with our full poker set or throw some darts on our professional board, play one of many board games or try one of 20 games on the Nintendo game console. Keep the kids busy with our kid-sized game table, which easily converts from a foosball table to a mini pool table (with backgammon, checkers, and chess capabilities as well). Outside, keep an eye out for deer that frequent the woods, hike to the top of Big Bald Mountain to get one of the most spectacular views on the east coast, or hike the private Nature Trail or even the Appalachian Trail just up the hill. The kids can go exploring down the many mountain creeks or play on the playground made from real logs, and the entire group can enjoy taking a dip in the heated pool May-Aug. Resort amenities vary based on the season and weather. Fox Den might offer enough activities to keep you busy, but guests can easily travel into Asheville for a change of scene and to check out the music and local shops. Or contact the local adventure company for guided mountain biking, river rafting, and horseback riding trips. While visiting Fox Den, stargaze at a sky you can't even imagine a“ and enjoy a rustic mountain feel while not exactly roughing it. Four-wheel drive is recommended during inclement weather. Hiking on Site: 1) 1.3 miles up the mountain (on Wolf Laurel Rd) is the entrance to the well maintained 2 mile Nature Trail. This eventually hooks up with the Appalachain Trail. 2) If you take Wolf Laurel Rd all the way to the top then left on Big Bald Rd, that takes you (on dirt roads) to the highest point (and best views) in the area. The Appalachian Trail also runs right across the top of Big Bald Mountain. The rental rate entitles guests to one free admission per paid night at the following local attractions: Rock 'n' Water whitewater rafting, Lake Lure Tours, Golf at Reems Creek, Asheville Historic Trolley Tours, and Asheville's Fun Depot
