Fall is just around the corner - a truly fabulous time to be here in the mountains of WNC 🍂

Personally, it is one of our favorite times of year to spend the weekend away. Some of our fondest memories are gathering around the fire telling stories, looking at the stars, listening to music, and roasting marshmallows.

It’s breathtaking moments like this one that stop us in our tracks... evening walks around the property never cease to amaze us ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Garden House, named for the peaceful oasis in the backyard, was designed with tranquility in mind. As the sun sets behind the home, it sends cascading hues of pinks, oranges, and blues upon the sky. The large deck with a hot tub lends itself as a front-row seat.

Taking A Leap and Finding Purpose….✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve always told my husband, Brad, that one day I want to be in nature, in the mountains, growing some vegetables, having a space for my family to come home to, to walk in the woods, to potter around, to let nature nourish us and remind us of who we are. When 2020 brought tragedy to our family, we were shaken awake to the fact that life is short and living more simply and more connected to what and who you love is so very important.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In 2021, we purchased Magnolia House, amidst deep grief and the pandemic - truly a time of deep uncertainty. I am not sure that we really knew what we were doing or why we were doing it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Truthfully, Magnolia House found us in that time of grief and helped ground us and our entire extended family. It became a haven for all of us.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just as we open our doors for all of our guests to come and make wonderful memories here, we do the same for our own extended family, pulling our loved ones closer for special gatherings and celebrations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In hind sight, I see that this historic bed and breakfast now turned vacation rental/retreat space/event venue was truly meant to find it’s way into our lives.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We feel so purposeful - to have the privilege of holding space at Magnolia House for not only our own loved ones but for yours too.
