About this property

Wheel of Bliss Retreat

Hidden away deep in Blue Ridge, Wheel of Bliss Retreat House overlooks a sea of forested land. Outside, breathe in the fresh forest air, hear the rush of waterfalls, and see peaks of mountains in the distance. Gather your group on our spacious deck for yoga, meditation, dining, and more. Hike trails and bathe in fresh spring water. Inside, enter a sacred space. Practice, heal, and relax in our altar room adorned with sacred paintings and effigies from the Himalayas. Rest your head on one of our 16 plush beds, that include soft linens and thick comforters to stay warm in the winter. Whether you're planning a large spiritual retreat, an intimate gathering, or a couples night, The Bliss House is your home in the mountains.

**Please note that will be the **only group** in the house if you book with us and will be able to explore over 63 acres of land and HUNDREDS of acres of National Forest!**

Nestled in the mountains of the Appalachians, the Bliss House was established to provide different religious and spiritual traditions a sacred space to host retreats. The main house can host over 20 attendees and is perfect for a 4-7 day retreat. The property has 63 acres of mountain land that back up to over 100 acres of National Forest, 2 large streams, waterfalls, and multiple trails to hike and explore. Reach out to us now to reserve your space!

*The nightly rate is for up to 2 people total. For groups larger than 2, please note that there is an additional charge of $50/person per night. Additional guests of any age are included in this calculation, with the exception of children under 3 years old. The Bliss House can sleep up to 20 people total.*

**Please Note that we only allow **one group** to book the house at a time. Whether you are with a group of 10 or more or booking a few nights for yourself, you will be the *only* group in the house. We have a caretaker on-site but he is in a cabin several acres down-mountain from the privacy and seclusion of the Bliss House (where you will be staying)**

* Booking alone or on behalf of a group? You will be the ONLY group in the retreat house for the duration of your booking!
* Distance from Asheville? We are isolated deep in the mountains, about an hour from the center of Asheville.
* Are we pet-friendly? YES! Bring up to 2 dogs at no extra charge
* Because of limitations in Airbnb's API, it listed our jacuzzi tub as a "hot tub". We have a jacuzzi tub in the Master Bathroom that fits 1-2 people max, but no hot tub
* Rob, our on-site manager, will give you a short check-in walk-through of the house after arrival
* Neighbors are spaced many acres apart and are very friendly.
* One should have a car to drive to the property, preferably a 4x4 to drive up the mountain (there is a stone gravel road), although a sedan will do if it has sufficient ground clearance.
* Driving a car that has a low ground clearance in the mountains is not recommended.
* The internet connection works well but the house is in the mountains, so higher bandwidth activities can sometimes load slowly.
* Guests must sign an agreement after booking to maintain reservation status. The agreement will be sent to you via email to e-sign once you've booked the space

About the host

Hosted by Colin Mayer

Host profile image
Hello!

We run a meditation center in Miami Beach and were absolutely entranced with the beauty and energy of The Blue Ridge Mountains when we first came to this land in 2010. We originally began developing Wheel of Bliss in 2012 as a retreat space for friends and practitioners from South Florida to spend summers. After receiving multiple requests from different groups to stay on the land, we decided to create a listing on Airbnb to share the possibility of experiencing this beautiful and peaceful land with the community. Since then, we have enjoyed our hosting experience tremendously. We have been able to meet groups from all over the country including spiritual/religious retreat groups, families, Ivy League Universities, campers, and couples! We are very excited for 2017 and will be opening two new facilities as well as a large garden space for weddings and outdoor events. We are happy to speak with you about hosting your getaway today!
