Alpine Village

Tranquility, Beauty, and Moutnains!

We have stayed at Alpine Village several times. It is a quaint and beautiful resort. The views are wonderful, it is quiet and plenty to do in the area. We enjoy driving the Blue Ridge Parkway, visiting Blowing Rock, Black Mountain, Little Switzerland and Asheville. There is gem mining in Spruce Pine, hiking trails everywhere, waterfalls, caves, pottery shops and wonderful scenery.

The swimming pool is open during the summer months and is quite refreshing. If you like the mountains and want to get away from the hustle bustle - this is the place. People go back year after year.

Stayed here in May/02. Was tricky to find (plan well via your maps) - but well worth it. Extent of activities available via onsite/foot are limited to walks. You must have a car to enjoy the area. Resort is situation higher than one might expect - last climb to top is surprisingly steep. Many waterfalls to explore in surrounding area - very nature oriented resort - a wonderful break for urban folks. Accomodations are very good, slightly rustic, very functional. All are basically semi-detached homes, fully equipped, with 2 TVs, kitchens, utensils, etc. Barbeques on front porches - typically fantastic views from back porch. Can get windy overnight. Wonderful surrounding area to explore. Great resort to relax at, bring your own activites to entertain kiddies.
