Indigo Nature Retreat is a rare mountain property bordering more than 1,000 acres of Pisgah National Forest. On 4.25 private acres, the retreat includes a welcoming main lodge, a two-story community barn and nine guest cabins, creating an exceptional setting for retreats, gatherings or a private mountain escape. The lodge offers warm wood interiors, a stone fireplace, open living spaces and a covered porch overlooking the forest. The community barn features a full kitchen, dining area, two full baths and an upper-level studio ideal for yoga, workshops or creative pursuits. Five primitive cabins and four creekside cabins with full kitchens and baths accommodate up to 24 guests. Surrounded by trails, streams and native forest, the property offers remarkable privacy while remaining within easy reach of Asheville. Whether continued as a retreat center or reimagined as a private estate, Indigo Nature Retreat is a place to slow down, reconnect and experience the mountains at their most authentic.
