Forever Bloom Vacation welcomes you!
The Carolina Confidential is where your Asheville daydreams come to life: think laughter echoing through colorful rooms, clinking glasses in a secret speakeasy, and starlit nights around the fire as the mountains fade into the dark. This is a home made for memory-making weekends, milestone celebrations, and family gatherings that people talk about for years.
Experience The Carolina Confidential
Step through the front door and into a swirl of color, texture, and art that feels like stepping into Asheville’s creative soul. Sunlight pours through large windows onto patterned rugs, lush plants, and cozy seating where your group immediately drops their bags and sinks in, already planning the first round of games or cocktails. In the evenings, gather in the main living area for movie nights, late-night conversations, and that one story everyone has heard a hundred times but still laughs at.
Space for Every Guest
With 5,200 square feet of space, The Carolina Confidential is built for big moments and big groups. Five king bedrooms offer hotel-level comfort, each with its own personality, where guests can retreat with a book, take an afternoon nap, or wake slowly to quiet mountain mornings. The oversized bunk room with four king beds becomes the heart of the fun: cousins piling in for a sleepover, best friends in pajamas swapping stories until the lights finally go out, and late-night whispers turning into deep belly laughs.
Magic for Kids and Kids at Heart
Children race to find the secret hidden nook, their own private world tucked away just for them, where they can curl up with a story, play pretend, or spread out their favorite toys. In the game areas, kids and teens drift from one activity to the next, challenging each other, cheering loudly, and forming mini tournaments while the adults relax nearby. Between games, movies, and cozy corners, everyone finds a spot that feels made just for them.
Carolina Confidential Speakeasy Nights
As the sun sets, the energy shifts to Carolina Confidential, your private speakeasy tucked away. Picture your group gathered around the poker table, cards in hand, laughing as someone proudly reveals a winning hand. Over by the pool table, friendly competition heats up while a new playlist hums in the background. The karaoke machine becomes the star of the night, with unforgettable performances, off-key duets, and that one showstopper who surprises everyone. Between rounds, guests lounge with drinks, play video games, and savor the feeling of having a full nightlife experience without ever leaving the house.
Outdoor Moments You’ll Talk About Later
Step outside and breathe in the cool mountain air as steam rises from the hot tub, inviting you in with the promise of total relaxation. Imagine soaking under a blanket of stars, chatting with your favorite people while the night air nips at your shoulders and the hot water keeps you perfectly warm. The barrel sauna adds a spa-like ritual to your stay: slow, deep breaths, a warm, quiet space, and that refreshed, glowing feeling afterward. When the fire pit crackles to life, everyone drifts outside with blankets and drinks in hand, toasting marshmallows, sharing stories, and watching sparks float up into the night.
Designed for Gatherings and Retreats
The Carolina Confidential is crafted to make hosting effortless, whether you’re planning a multi-family vacation, a bachelorette weekend, a birthday bash, or a wellness retreat. The kitchen is ready for big breakfasts before hikes, charcuterie spreads before heading to Asheville’s breweries, or catered dinners where everyone lingers at the table. Between fast Wi‑Fi, smart TVs, and plenty of seating, it is just as easy to host a game day watch party as it is to unplug and lean into slow, peaceful days.
Close to Asheville’s Best
When you are ready to explore, downtown Asheville is just a short drive away, calling you with live music, street art, award-winning breweries, and farm-to-table restaurants. Spend the day hiking Blue Ridge trails, chasing waterfalls, or wandering the River Arts District, then come “home” to your colorful sanctuary where shoes come off, laughter grows louder, and the evening stretches happily ahead.
