Clear Creek Retreat - Pet Friendly, King Bed, Hot Tub, Game Room, Fire Pit
Welcome to Clear Creek Retreat at the Maxwell Estate — a place where families come to unplug, explore, and create memories together.
Set on a privately owned 140-acre family farm that has remained in the Maxwell family for over 150 years, this peaceful retreat sits in a mountain valley surrounded by open pastures, wooded trails, and sweeping natural views. For five generations, this land has been lived on, worked, and carefully preserved — and today, it’s a place where guests are invited to experience the beauty and rhythm of country life.
Children can roam the yard, explore trails, or watch farm animals graze, while adults unwind in the private hot tub under the stars or gather around the fire pit in the evenings. All of this, just minutes from downtown Hendersonville and within easy reach of Asheville, wineries, orchards, and mountain adventures.
This is a stay that blends space, simplicity, and connection — perfect for families, couples, and pet lovers looking for something more meaningful than a typical vacation rental.
Clear Creek Retreat is a thoughtfully updated, family-friendly home designed for comfort, togetherness, and easy living.
Inside the home, you’ll find:
• Three comfortable bedrooms Primary bedroom with a king bed Two additional bedrooms with queen beds • One full bathroom with a walk-in shower • A fully equipped kitchen for family meals and slow mornings • An open living and dining area with a Smart TV — perfect for movie nights or board games • Washer and dryer located in the basement
Step outside and the space opens up even more: • A private 6-person hot tub, just steps from the home and open year-round • A private fire pit, with firewood provided, for s’mores and stories after sunset • A spacious yard where kids can play freely and pets can explore • A detached game room with ping pong, darts, and giant Connect Four • A horseshoe pit for friendly family competitions
Guests often tell us this is one of the cleanest rentals they’ve ever stayed in, especially for a pet-friendly home.
Clear Creek Retreat is part of a working family farm, and that’s a big part of its charm.
Guests may see daily farm activities, including caring for livestock, hay production, and general property care.
The farm is home to friendly goats and miniature donkeys who love to roam the pastures, greet new faces, and hope for a treat.
As a rural property, guests should expect natural sights and sounds — including wildlife and the occasional farm noise.
Trails, fields, and water features are part of a natural environment; children and pets should be supervised while exploring.
Although the setting feels peaceful and tucked away, the home is conveniently located near town, offering the best of both worlds.
For many families, these details become the most memorable part of their stay — giving kids a chance to experience farm life, space to explore, and time together that feels slower and more meaningful.

This getaway was just what we needed for a few nights in a very clean and spacious home!The listing was accurate and we had everything we needed and more for the 6 of us that stayed over for a couple nights! Our dogs loved the outdoor space and the screened in front porch to catch some sun and fresh air! All in all an amazing little gem just south of Asheville that allowed us the rest we needed while being close enough to some attractions in and around Asheville! Our daughters (13 and 9yo) loved the swing set and fireplace and spent a lot of the time in the garage/gameroom/hot tub areas, so there was plenty to keep everyone busy!
We had another great stay at this relaxing and inviting home! Everything we needed for making meals was provided and we were able to relax on the sunny screened-in porch. We will definitely be back!
Just what our famiky needed! Relaxing Stress frees stay! Very clean and convenient to to shopping and downtown Asheville! Close to great hiking spots! The hist were very accommodating, we had an ussue with the lock, and he was there within minutes!!! Excellent host! Highly recommend!
This place was incredible. Very thoughtfully and tastefully furnished. Third trip to Asheville and our favorite place to stay thus far. Twenty minutes from chimney rock. Very serene and peaceful. Can’t recommend it enough.
0 complaints at all. Me and my fiancé have never been on a vacation together unless family was also involved, this place ticked every box she wanted and we were both pleasantly surprised by bulls cows goats walking the fence line as we arrived. She couldn’t get over that all weekend. While the bedrooms not having tvs would be an issue for some people I specifically liked the master bedroom in the listing because of the bare front wall being perfect for setting up a projector since the walls were an off white color. Would heavily recommend this listing to anyone looking to visit biltmore.
