A Perfect Weekend in Lesbian Asheville – 3 Day Itinerary

If you’re planning the ultimate weekend in lesbian Asheville, you’re in the right place! In this guide, guest blogger Polly Clover shares a perfect 3 Day Asheville weekend itinerary filled with outdoor adventure, cultural experiences, and delicious food.

Along with Charleston, SC, Asheville is one of my favourite places to spend a long weekend. I love its laid-back vibe, welcoming locals, and fun activities.

There are so many different things to see and do packed into a somewhat small city, which makes it an ideal destination for all kinds of travellers.

In fact, I’ve gone to Asheville alone as well as with family, friends, and my partner. All experiences were unique and memorable!

This beautiful western North Carolina mountain city is most known for the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Biltmore Estate. It’s also home to some of the best craft beer, a vibrant art scene, and friendly people.

Whether you’re planning a relaxing vacation, a romantic getaway, an exciting adventure, or a North Carolina road trip, Asheville is the perfect place to go.

Mountainside Cottage – Lesbian Owned Cottage in Alexander, North Carolina

Mountainside Cottage Periodically we’ll feature one of our properties here to let our readers know about some great gay friendly places to stay: Built in 2008, Mountainside Cottage is the perfect place to stay while exploring the wonderful towns of Asheville and Weaverville. The interior is light-filled and sunny, thanks to the many windows and skylights (there’s even a skylight in the shower!). The cottage has central air conditioning for warmer days, as well as ceiling fans for those who prefer a cool breeze. Even though we’re only about 15-20 minutes from downtown Asheville, our cottage is totally secluded. Once you’re here, you can see no one and no one can see you. Imagine sitting in the hot tub at night with no roof overhead — you can look right up at the stars. And it’s perfect because there are no city lights to spoil the view. You can either stay in the cottage and enjoy the hot tub and totally relax or use it as a place to come back to after you’ve explored Asheville. We even have a binder that has restaurant menus, information on the Biltmore Estate, the Blue Ridge Parkway, things to do in Asheville, hikes in the area– complete with maps and written directions. We’ve tried to think of everything to take the guess work out of what to do and how to get there. That way you don’t have to spend all your time planning what to do–you can just go do it! We furnish everything you’ll need for a perfect vacation. Washer/dryer, linens, microwave, toaster, mixer, blender, coffee maker, wine glasses, pots and pans, dishes–there will even be a bottle of champagne in the refrigerator when you arrive! You simply need to bring clothes and food. Even though we do have an outdoor gas grill at the cottage, there’s a great park a mile-and-a-half away where you can cook out beside the French Broad River (yes, you can even hear the river at night). The Ledges Park is also a place where you can put in to kayak the area or go fly fishing. And we’re more than happy to accommodate your pets (dogs only, please!). The cottage is totally surrounded by woods, so it’s a great place for your furry friends to run and play. There’s also a dog park/mountain bike trail a mile from the cottage.
