Mountain views, pickleball, hot tub, guest cottage, fire pits w/free Biltmore pass

Boulder Ridge is a mountaintop retreat on nearly four tranquil acres with two homes, a hot tub, fire pits, pickleball and sweeping mountain views. This beautifully passive-solar estate includes a main house, guest cottage, “Bike Shack” hangout, two disc golf goals, and multiple outdoor living spaces—perfect for groups, reunions, or retreats. FREE activities including Biltmore, Rock Wall, Zipline, Whitewater Rafting, Trampoline Park, Snow Tubing and Axe Throwing.

Imagine mornings filled with sunlight streaming through soaring south-facing windows and evenings by the fire under a blanket of stars, coffee in hand, breathing fresh mountain air. Families, friends, and colleagues gather here to connect, share stories, and recharge—rooted in Pisgah Forest's timeless beauty yet free to explore adventure at every turn.

This 3,927 square foot contemporary home welcomes you with an open-plan kitchen, sun-drenched living areas, and a private work nook. Antique chandeliers from Asheville's historic Battery Park Hotel add a touch of elegance, while unique features like an exposed boulder on the deck and a deluxe dog kennel under the stairs make the home unforgettable. The main house offers three bedrooms and three full baths, including a main suite with a king bed, sitting area, private balcony, and ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms each have two queen beds, and there is a full sleeper sofa in a cozy upstairs sitting area. Guests can relax with streaming TV, gather at the poker table, or enjoy a game of darts or indoor shuffleboard.

The guest cottage is a comfortable, fully equipped two-bedroom, two-bath residence that provides extra privacy for larger groups. It features a king suite with an ensuite bath and a bunk room with four twin beds, along with a kitchen, laundry area, and welcoming living space. For post-adventure relaxation, the “Bike Shack” offers a fun and casual hangout with bar seating, a mini-fridge, a dart board, and secure storage for gear.

Outdoors, you'll find a boulder-framed patio with a fireplace, a hot tub with mountain views, two fire pits, covered decks, a grill, and a bench at the edge of the property's signature boulder with panoramic views. The grounds also feature two professional disc golf baskets and plenty of quiet spaces to enjoy the scenery. Boulder Ridge is located in a quiet and scenic setting with easy access to Pisgah Forest and Asheville—approximately 15 minutes to Brevard, 29 minutes to Asheville Regional Airport, and 53 minutes to downtown Asheville.

Pisgah Forest offers a peaceful, scenic retreat beloved for its outdoor lifestyle. Known for its family-friendly and dog-friendly charm, this area hosts an abundance of hiking, mountain biking, waterfalls, and streams. It's nestled just outside charming Brevard and a short drive from Asheville's cultural highlights—offering the perfect balance of adventure and comfort.

Please note the property's natural boulder patio and overlook do not have railings, which is ideal for adventurous guests but something to consider for families with small children. The Bike Shack does not have air conditioning. This home is dog-friendly for up to two dogs with a maximum combined weight of 150 pounds, with a pet fee required. Please no cats. We are so excited to host your visit! The Pete Key Properties team welcomes you and is here to help create a memorable experience.

My family and I stayed at Boulder Ridge and loved it! The Kitchen was well stocked and the house has a beautiful wrap around porch to enjoy morning coffee and catching up with everyone. It's about 15 minutes down the mountain and always plenty to see and do in Brevard.

Relaxing wedding weekend

We loved the space we all had. It’s roomy and had everything we needed. Some recommendations: new pans, we cook quite a bit and the surfaces were pretty scratched up. New lighting for bathrooms. When you are getting ready for a wedding etc you need lighting.. We would stay here again loved the views and the porch.

Mountain trip

We had a great time with two other families that we book an annual mountain trip together for the past four years. The place was amazing -super clean and very accommodating!We had a wonderful time and appreciated all of the amenities. The one suggestion would be to have better sheets (thicker) at least on the king bed -the sheets were super thin and the fitted sheet did not stay put. Also the pillows were very uncomfortable.

Our family stayed here for our daughter’s wedding weekend. The house has plenty of seating and activities to come together as a family along with a few cozy, smaller sitting areas that were available for reading or time away from the group. Everything was clean and and well kept.

very well kept, limited views

I sincerely appreciated how clean it was, and had tons of little extras...but for this money, it was tough to enjoy the outdoors, was kinda in a bowl with limited mountains views, no hiking. No place for teens to explore and run around, just pavement, driveway, garage and basketball net. If weather isn't perfect, it's not worth this money. Also tough drive to the top with very windy, narrow roads with fog.

Mountain escape

Last minute booking in an area we know and love. This is a large property that would be great for a family gathering. There is a well furnished main house. Average kitchen, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. There is also a garage apartment. This has great views from the back deck. There are no views from main house without walking outside and around the back. Not a deal breaker given how great the views are from the rock outcropping. Would definitely stay again. Only beef was with rental management company and that was minor.

Amazing views and all the little things

We rent a house in the mountains every year and we all agreed that this one had the most amazing views and more to offer than any other. There are so many different areas to hang out that we made a goal to lounge in each one. It was a beautiful house with a super stocked kitchen. Loved it and will hopefully book again.

Mountain top gem!

We had the pleasure of staying here and the listing does not give this house justice! We were speechless upon arrival at the location of the house, the layout was fantastic and the view is breathtaking. With porches that overlook the scene it is an amazing way to wake up and have coffee! Accommodations were perfect for our party of 14 and we will definitely rebook this amazing location!
