The Neighborhood:

The Neighborhood

Tucked inside the private, gated Wolf Laurel community at over 4,000 feet in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this property puts you right in the heart of one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after four-season mountain retreats — surrounded on three sides by national forest, the 5,000-acre resort community sits just north of Asheville off I-26.



Ski & Snow (Winter)/Mountain Biking

You're steps from one of the Southeast's most beloved ski destinations. Hatley Pointe (formerly Wolf Ridge Ski Resort) has been a mountain institution since 1970, featuring a top elevation of 4,700 feet and a vertical drop of 700 feet. With about 20 trails across 82 acres, terrain for every level, unparalleled mountain views, and a friendly staff, it's a true family-friendly resort both on and off the slopes. Night skiing, snow tubing, and a terrain park round out the winter fun. Hatley recently expanded its offerings to include mountain biking during Spring, Summer and Fall!



Hiking & the Appalachian Trail

On the northern boundary of Wolf Laurel, you'll find the Appalachian Trail, with numerous entrances throughout the community for hiking adventures. For those craving a bigger challenge, Big Bald Mountain — located along the Appalachian Trail — leads through dense forests and serene meadows before delivering 360-degree views of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains at the summit.



Whitewater Rafting

Just 30 minutes away, you can experience whitewater rafting on the French Broad River — the third oldest river in the world — as it winds through Pisgah National Forest with Class II & III rapids ideal for families and first-timers alike.



Golf & Horseback Riding (Spring–Fall)

The Wolf Laurel Country Club offers a challenging 18-hole golf course that rises and falls between 3,600 and 4,800 feet in elevation, surrounded by forest and mountain views. The Preserves stables offer guided horseback trail rides and riding lessons.



Asheville — Just 30 Minutes Away

Mars Hill sits only 15 miles north of Asheville's city attractions, just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Appalachian Trail. Spend a day exploring the vibrant River Arts District, touring the iconic Biltmore Estate, sampling the world-class craft brewery scene, or browsing the eclectic restaurants and boutiques downtown — then retreat to your peaceful mountain sanctuary by night.



Madison County offers authentic Appalachian charm rooted in music and heritage, with quaint mountain towns like Marshall and Hot Springs to explore, natural mineral springs to soak in, and farm-to-table dining with stunning views. During the school year, the historic Owen Theatre at Mars Hill University hosts great stage plays and performances by national clogging champions.



Year-Round Privacy & Peace

Wolf Laurel is a private, exclusive community with densely wooded lots that afford amazing privacy. Wildlife sightings — deer, black bears, and more — are part of the everyday experience here. Whether you're coming to ski, hike, unwind, or simply breathe mountain air, this location delivers the best of the Blue Ridge in every season.



Getting Around:

A personal vehicle is essential for exploring the area — the mountain roads winding through Wolf Laurel and into town are part of the adventure, and you'll want the freedom to hop between the ski slopes, trailheads, and Asheville's vibrant downtown at your own pace. Asheville Regional Airport (AVL) is the closest major airport, roughly 40 minutes away, making it easy for guests flying in to grab a rental car and head straight up into the mountains.
