Quick Facts
Why Mars Hill & Craggy Gardens
Mars Hill sits north of Asheville, within reach of the Blue Ridge Parkway’s Craggy Gardens and Craggy Pinnacle, a 1.4-mile round-trip hike through rhododendron tunnels to a 360-degree overlook that includes Mount Mitchell on a clear day. This part of the mountains stays genuinely quiet compared to busier stretches closer to downtown Asheville.
Vero Mountain leans fully into polish and detail — heated floors, interior soaking tubs, and robes provided — making it a genuine standout even among the region’s many luxury glamping options.
