I cannot say enough about how great this place is. It is the perfect way to reconnect with your inner self and with nature. My partner and I had our commitment ceremony here last October, and didn't have the opportunity to relax, so we returned to spend some time just for us. The energy healing by Reva was relaxing and...

You can tell the devotion that the owners have put into their inn. It's a beautiful drive to the place, and you instantly feel the peace and tranquility when you show up. They are incredibly generous hostesses, and the animals about the resort made me incredibly happy! The cabins are nice, spacious, and peaceful, whereas the hot tub's are magical... More

I searched and searched until I found the place that felt right. Compassionate Expressions and Reva’s gentle hospitality were a perfect fit. These folks have put a lot of love into their retreat. We had never been to Asheville and not being city people we needed a safe and comfy place to land out of the city while we enjoyed... More

Greatly appreciate Reva and Lenora for all the warmth and affection..Would... More

As soon as we pulled into the property, we were surrounded by peace and beauty. We loved how the simplicity of the cabin seemed to help us reconnect to ourselves and to each other. Will definitely stay here again!

I went to this inn for a wedding but it is more like a resort with trails, hot tubs, saunas and healing services. I ended up staying an extra night and it was well worth the cost. It's very relaxing. It's super clean which I appreciate. My room and a deep giant tub to relax in and read my novel.... More

I plan on returning to this little piece of heaven in the mountains of North Carolina every year for as long as possible. The mountain air, the creek with pure, clear water, the magical island, all combine to... More

We hoped for quiet and peace in a lovely mountain setting from which we could drive down each day into Asheville to see the sights. To our happy surprise, our week in this Sanctuary, free from the assaults of TV, telephones, cellphones, doorbells, internet and other thieves of peace, quickly became the the centerpiece of our vacation. If you want... More

The view of the mountains, the sound of the stream, the quiet and peacefulness of the sanctuary...all combined to provide a beautiful environment that was conducive to relaxing, reading, meditating and just being. Traveling alone, I felt totally comfortable there. Reva and Lenora provided a... More
