My late husband and myself bought the property in 1983 and it was all just overgrown land!We worked, cleared, built horse shelters/barns, cabins, cut trails, built the outdoor chapel for our wedding and of course fenced it all in for the horses! Started sharing with guests in 1993, so we have met so many amazing folks from all over the world!  Pass thru our gate into another world and leave all your worries and tensions behind. We are all about getting back to what is real -- nature, animals/horses and each other. Complete privacy!There are many mountain trails leaving right from our property! Lots to explore. You can even hike to the outdoor chapel with the pretty view of the Chilhowee Mountain range.  It is a short hike to the barn area for those who want to spend time rubbing the pot belly pigs' tummy, walk the mini horses, groom the love bug~Junebug (donkey), pet horses, cuddle with bunnies and feed chickens!  Every morning and night we set a time for all those who want to become involved with the care/feeding of petting animals and horses!

The highest point along the entire route of the Blue Ridge Parkway is located near us as well at Richland Balsam.

Relax. Rejuvenate. Reconnect. It is so important to have a safe space and dedicated time for disconnecting from the daily grind. Nurture + Nature provides our guests with opportunities to recharge their body, mind, and soul with positive energy and reconnect with themselves and nature. The retreat center is located on a small farm in the beautiful mountains in Western North Carolina, where you will be greeted by horses, chickens and Buddy the mini Donkey, everyone's fav! We are surrounded by picturesque views and fresh mountain streams. Accommodations include fully furnished tents with one, two or three beds per tent (the entire retreat center sleeps up to 16 people), electric heater to keep you toasty on chilly nights, large indoor workshop space, rejuvenating warm outdoor showers and plenty of private spaces to nurture in nature. *We clean and disinfect our accommodations and gear after every guest departure. We maintain very high standards of cleanliness and guest safety. Masks are required during group activities, we practice a socially distanced retreat experience.

If these mountains could talk… This historic homestead is alive and well. Mountain families and moonshiners passed this family farm from one generation to the next since the 1800’s. Primitive stone walls were built by farmers as property lines and served to keep farm critters close to home. Wake to a crow and dewy fog in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Scenic views and mountain air create a peaceful escape. Hike these mountains and feel the pride and perseverance left behind by folks from long ago.

If you're craving a unique way to unplug and recharge in the great outdoors, Valley Bear Farms might just be your new favorite escape. Tucked away in the quiet beauty of Balsam Grove, NC just an hour outside of Asheville this 150-acre mountain retreat offers more than just a place to stay. It's where fresh air, forest trails, and starry nights come standard. Our cabins are comfy, cozy, and surrounded by nothing but nature. Each one is tucked into the trees with views for days, a private patio for morning coffee or late-night stargazing, and everything you need to settle in and relax. Whether you’re stretching out on a king bed or sharing laughs in a cabin with queen bunk beds, you’ll feel right at home just with way better scenery. During your stay, wander our nature trails, cool off at a hidden waterfall, or challenge your crew to a game of volleyball or pickleball. There's even a private garden if you're in the mood for something more mellow. It’s camping just without the sleeping bags and soggy socks. Whether you're here for a quick weekend reset or a full week off-grid, Valley Bear Farms is all about slowing down, soaking it in, and reconnecting with what really matters. Plus, you're only 12 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, so you can explore even more of what makes this part of North Carolina so unforgettable

Weekend Trip to Tumble Down Shack
Richie was a great host and the shack was cute. The land is just uphill of the host's main house. You don't have to worry about the shared property because he respects your privacy. He said hello to us when we arrived and then we saw him again just before we checked out. It rained each night we stayed here and the shack kept us warm and dry.

Weekend Trip to Winding Stair Campground
We had such a wonderful trip. The farm and campsite are just breathtaking, full of wildflowers and butterflies and the clearest creek. The bathhouse and campsites are so modern and well maintained. Fern gully was a great pick for our family with little kids (definitely bring your jogging stroller). We loved the privacy and the well furnished “tent” which really felt more like a hotel room. I loved how it was just a quick walk to the pavilion for easy dish washing. The weather was gorgeous even in the hottest part of summer, we slept so comfortably in the canvas tent. We can’t wait to come back and I took so many pictures. So happy to have this memory with my kids and husband. The campfire and grills are very nice and much easier to deal with than a traditional camp fire set up.

The cabin is set in a wonderfully secluded spot within the campground. It’s well designed, but still rustic enough to keep you connected to the river out front and the trees all around. This place is ran by kind people that love sharing a very special place.

This is our second stay here and as always we had a blast. River and farm is gorgeous. Bath house is very clean and I love their soap. All the animals are well cared for and on fresh grass. *Be aware that the River House building does have BLACK MOLD everywhere for those of you that are allergic.* it’s in every part of this building structure. If this is an issue, there are other sites and buildings that appeared to be mold free.
