“If you are looking for an affordable Asheville wedding venue, Timber Hall is the absolute best! We toured so many places that wanted to charge us a luxury tax just for being in the mountains. Timber Hall gave us million-dollar views for a fraction of the cost. Highly recommend!”

“If you ever get the chance to be snowed in at Wrong Way, I would highly recommend it! The cabins are cute, full of natural light, and very clean and the staff is kind and responsive. The location can't be beat for access to West AVL and waking up to look out at the river is just so lovely”

“We used Ella Asheville for our rehearsal dinner in November 2025. We were initially scheduled for October of 2024 but it was delayed due to Hurricane Helene. The Ella team was able to reschedule everything for our new date. Nicole was such a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend this venue!”

“My husband and I got married last month at Longleaf Vineyard and it was hands down the best decision we made for the wedding! We had 85 guests in total and Longleaf was a perfect fit for our guest count. The Longleaf layout is in my opinion the best, because the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are nearby but each activity has its own space. Plus, guests had the freedom to move around and wander the vineyard/grounds.

My husband and I went with the Longleaf Experience package. With this package, Longleaf provided us with a list of Preferred Vendors and helped provide coordination services with their caterer, bartenders, baker, and rental partners which helped tremendously in the wedding planning process. We chose all of our vendors from the Preferred Vendor list and they were all amazing.

For the rehearsal at Longleaf, we had two shuttle vans take the wedding party from the hotel block to rehearsal and rehearsal dinner the night before. The shuttle that I was in - as soon as we got up the hill and could see out to the venue, the wedding party audibly gasped because the view was so stunning. I was told the other shuttle also had the same experience, as well. Longleaf is absolutely beautiful and the perfect venue if you are looking for beautiful mountain views and a calm, peaceful place to host your wedding.

The owners and venue specialist, along with the rest of their team, ensured the day went on like a well oiled machine. Between managing with the shuttle vans and guest parking, the vendors, and working alongside our day of coordinator, everything went on smoothly and I cannot recall any issues. As the bride, I was able to stay calm because I knew that Longleaf and my wedding team had everything taken care of.

Since the wedding I’ve had family and friends call to rave about how beautiful the wedding was and how special of a place we found to host our wedding.

I cannot recommend Longleaf enough if you are looking for a beautiful venue that your guests will rave about and a professional wedding team that will make your wedding day feel easy and calm. Longleaf is truly a special place and exceeded all of mine and my husband’s expectations.”

“The inn was the perfect place for a cozy weekend getaway! We stayed in the Howell Suite, and the charm and historic atmosphere makes the whole place really special.I really enjoyed the breakfast as well as the coffee/tea bar on the second floor. It was just a short drive to Asheville. Will definitely stay here again!”

“Greek Festival on Saturday (went early for smaller crowds initially and faster getting our food). Fun music and dancing in the outdoor tent at scheduled times. Great food and desserts. Many vendors throughout the grounds. We did not take the tour of the church (only specific times).”

“As an elopement and intimate wedding photographer and planner with Golden Hour Elopements, this is one of my favorite venues. It has an elevated vibe that pairs so well with the beauty of Biltmore. I have attached a few of my favorite photos from a microwedding at the Lioncrest. The food was outstanding and the service was great. I have photographed a lot of weddings in my 17 year career as a wedding photographer and this was one of the best meals I have had at a wedding. Delicious.”

“Our daughter Basil and new son Jethro got married this past weekend at Homewood this weekend. We loved the venue and found in affordable and accommodating. It fit perfectly for the theme wedding we had. All of the vendors we worked with were friendly and delivered a fantastic product. There were a few minor things that could’ve been improved, but did not diminish the overall experience we enjoyed. All the guests enjoyed the event and spoke highly of the venue and event.”

“This is a great place to have a kids birthday party at, we had so much space that we decides to put the food in one room and have the guest sit in the other, which made for plenty of room for the kids to run around. It was nice to have 2 bathrooms also. Thank you for letting my family and friends enjoy this beautiful venue.”

“We were immediately blown away by the Biltmore Banquet Hall. Much like the rest of the home, that is outstanding. The huge fireplaces and massive table immediately capture your attention. Looking around and we noticed the massive circular shaped ceiling insuring almost perfect acoustics. The furniture and furnishings are each noteworthy in themselves. It is hard for me to imagine what an eight course meal was like in such surroundings.”

“This hotel is beautiful clean and close to the highway. All of the staff from the front desk to housekeeping to the bar and restaurant were friendly and helpful. We stopped on the first leg of our vacation and I accidentally left a prescription behind. They found it and offered to ship it or hold it for me until we came back through Asheville. The pool was refreshing. The a/c kept our room cool and comfortable. Thank you! I look forward to staying there again.”

“The location is just a short walk from lots of cute shops and fun restaurants.
The hotel appears to be newer construction and the lobby is clean and well maintained. All of the staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful.

The rooms are modern, stylish, and very clean. My complaint is that it is very poorly insulated/soundproofed. There is no carpet in the rooms and the floors and surfaces are generally hard, and when the doors close they are very loud. This means that every time someone allowed their door to close naturally, it woke me up. If the door to the room next door closed, the adjoining wall literally vibrated. And then there were kids running up and down the hall at midnight. Unfortunately that's a parenting issue more than a hotel issue, but posting quiet hours might help? Regardless, in two nights, I don't think I slept more than 90 minutes without waking up from hallway noise.

I ate and had a drink at the bar one night. The drink was tasty and worth the money. The food was sad and definitely not worth the price. Go eat somewhere nearby.”
