February is here and that means Valentine's Day is right around the corner! Do you have plans for you and your special someone? Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway filled with adventure and exploration or pampering and relaxation, Asheville is the place to be!
Valentine's Day falls on a Tuesday this year so, the weekend before and after will definitely be a busy one. Here are our top 5 getaways when it comes to a romantic weekend.
Carolina Mornings Cabins
Find your own quiet corner of the Blue Ridge Mountains by staying in one of Carolina Morning's cozy cabins. They offer many last minute deals and Mountain Discovery passes included with your stay in one of their beautiful cabins. Another great thing about Carolina Mornings is they have many pet-friendly cabins so you don't have to worry about leaving your fur-babies behind!
Biltmore Estate
For a romantic weekend away or a day-trip, you can never go wrong with visiting the Biltmore Estate. This historic location in Asheville, NC has several romantic offers for you to take advantage of this year. Enjoy an exquisite 3-course dinner in the Dining Room or at the Bistro, indulge in the chocolate social at The Inn, or make your way through the tour of the Vanderbilt's home and stop by the winery for a wine tasting. Now matter what you decide to do at the Biltmore, you are sure to be in for a romantic day!
Hot Springs Resort and Spa
When you need to relax and rejuvenate, visit the Hot Springs Resort and Spa! An easy day trip from any one of our communities, Hot Springs Resort and Spa also makes for a wonderful weekend getaway. Choose from any one of their spa services, from their mineral baths, to a mud wrap, to facials, to their “Head to Toe” package, massage, and more! With a campground or rental cabins and suites, you can make true relaxation the goal of your couples’ getaway.
Take A Hike
Tie up your hiking boots, pack a picnic, and set out for a hike in Western North Carolina! Winter hikes are always a little more romantic because there are fewer hikers on the trails, no bugs, and clear views since most of the leaves are off the trees. Check out our favorite hikes to waterfalls in the area!
Hit The Slopes
Just two hours from Asheville, Beech Mountain is the highest town in Eastern America at 5,506 feet, and the perfect weekend getaway with your adventurous loved one. Lifts include four doubles, a quad and a high-speed quad with a panoramic vista. Not much of a skier or snowboarder? Try snow tubing at Beech Mountain's new snowtubing park!
