Welcome to The Suite at Mills River Retreat – A Peaceful Mountain Escape!
Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, The Suite at Mills River Retreat is a charming, private apartment designed for comfort, relaxation, and convenience. This freestanding unit is ideal for couples or solo travelers looking to unwind in a serene setting while being close to all the action Western North Carolina has to offer.
Step inside this fully furnished efficiency apartment and discover thoughtful touches throughout. Enjoy your morning coffee on the private porch as you overlook a quiet farm—where deer often make an appearance. The unit features its own driveway and is separated from the neighboring property by a privacy fence, ensuring a tranquil and secluded stay.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious King-sized bed with a memory foam mattress and luxury linens, perfect for restful nights. Stay connected with high-speed Wi-Fi and stream your favorite shows on the Smart TV equipped with Samsung TV+ and access to all your favorite apps.
The efficiency kitchen is stocked with everything you need: a full-sized refrigerator, microwave, electric cooktop, convection oven/air fryer, both Keurig and drip coffee makers, and essential cookware and utensils. Whether you’re whipping up a quick breakfast or a cozy dinner in, you’ll have everything you need at your fingertips.
The modern bathroom features a walk-in shower with a relaxing massage showerhead, and we’ve stocked it with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, and starter paper products—so you can settle in stress-free.
Perfect Location:
Conveniently located just minutes from Asheville Regional Airport, The Suite sits perfectly between Asheville, Hendersonville, and Brevard. Explore popular breweries like Sierra Nevada, Mills River Brewery, and Bold Rock Cidery—all just a short drive away. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the easy access to nearby hiking and biking trails, while those seeking culture and cuisine will enjoy the area’s vibrant shopping and dining scenes.
