Fifteen years ago, Michael and I followed our dream to the beautiful mountains of western North Carolina and discovered a sign on an old barn in a rural area near Asheville. The Barkwells “sign” launched our concept for a luxury retreat designed for people who want to vacation with their dogs. The iconic Asheville market was the perfect location and this fully fenced, 7 acres with one cabin and a pond was the perfect place to develop our vision.

We are celebrating our 15^th season, flowers are blooming, winter projects are complete, cabins are spic and span from spring cleaning and we are excited to welcome returning and new guests to Barkwells!

Spring is just around the corner. Book your stay at Barkwells today to take advantage of our stay 3 nights get 1 free and winter rates available until March 19th. Available for reservations arriving by March 19th, 2019.
