Great Smoky Mountains

breathtaking scenery

farm-to-table

The path that leads to The Swag is the best of life itself. Strikingly beautiful, it offers all that is essential to mankind: nature, rivers and healing mountain air.

Located near Asheville, a stay here is the ideal change of scenery to leave you feeling refreshed and renewed, especially after one of the many memorable hikes. Nestled deep in the woods, it is the epitome of a romantic getaway where the concern for the environment, remarkable array of amenities and delicious traditional cuisine only add to its rustic charm. Hosting only a few dozen guests at any one time, The Swag is a favourite of thoughtful travellers who treasure the property’s rare, restorative combination of epic natural beauty and authentic hospitality.

Activities, excursions and other attractions during your stay at The Swag

Hiking and exploration

Bordered by the old growth forests and ancient mountains of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, The Swag’s 250-acres of preserved woodlands provide the perfect setting for adventure or relaxation. You can spend your day hiking the miles of trails on The Swag’s lush property, visiting The Swag Pond, relaxing in one of the private hideaways nestled along the trails, or delighting your senses in The Swag’s ridgetop garden. Or, you can venture across the fence line - steps away from your room - into the 500,000-acre National Park. Whether you are looking for solitude or adventure, the inspiring sights, sounds, and smells will provide you with natural inspiration in every direction.

Expert-Led Experiences

Throughout the year, The Swag hosts Experts-in-Residence who help provide magic and memories in every visit. The Swag hosts naturalists, storytellers, musicians, artists (watercolor, printmaking, or photography), and more. These experts provide an opportunity for guided hikes in the morning with additional classes, performances, or lectures before dinner.

Horseback Riding and Fly-Fishing

With thousands of acres to explore on horseback at The Swag, in the National Park, or at the neighboring Cataloochee Ranch, our guests can enjoy all-day or half-day private rides or group trail rides. Guests can also venture off-property to experience the great fly-fishing that Western North Carolina offers. A guide will pick you up at The Swag and transport you to a nearby river or creek to provide you with an amazing fishing experience.
