Rose Room of the Blake House romantic couples getaway near Asheville w/free Biltmore pass

PLEASE NOTE: We do not serve breakfast. The Rose Room is a romantic couples getaway located in South Asheville just minutes to downtown, and convenient to attractions like Sierra Nevada, Twelve Bones South and Jake Rusher Park. South Asheville is quickly becoming a "must see" destination in its own right, and we are right in the middle of it. FREE activities including Biltmore, Rock Wall, Zipline, Whitewater Rafting, Trampoline Park, Snow Tubing and Axe Throwing.

When we first discovered that the historic Blake House was for sale, we thought that living here was just a dream. But our dream has come true and we are excited to be sharing it with guests.

Welcome to the Rose Room, located in the main house. It is absolutely delightful with its twelve foot ceilings, its cozy atmosphere and its private entry. It is the perfect couples getaway. We have spent a great deal of time and effort to make it perfect, and we really love the result. We think you will too.

We are close to the Biltmore House, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the NC Arboretum, Pisgah National Forest and the Folk Art Center. We are convenient to the airport. The nearby towns of Hendersonville and Brevard are both about a 30 minute drive, making them great destinations for a day trip.

Our family lives in the main house, so please be aware that the front porch area is our family space and not accessible to guests. We invite you to enjoy the patio area and to walk around and enjoy the grounds.

We are so excited to host your visit! The Pete Key Properties team welcomes you and is here to help create a memorable experience. Enjoy the free activities described above, and you can also book helicopter tours, e-bikes, wellness tours and hiking and more through our Activity Concierge. Please don t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or need anything at all. We look forward to seeing you soon!

The Rose room was absolutely lovely and beautifully decorated! Our hosts, Stephanie and Ryan were so welcoming and shared many of the great local areas to visit and dine. Stephanie provided great information and details about the Biltmore. We are looking forward to our return stay at the Rose Room of the Blake House!

My wife and I had a lovely time staying in the Rose Room while visiting Asheville for our anniversary. The room is beautifully decorated and, while small, holds all the amenities a couple would need who spends most of their day exploring the city. It’s a nice 15-20 minute drive to most of downtown Asheville, meaning you can escape the city life when you come home in the evenings. My only notes are that the walls are a little thin and noise conductive and that the keypad lock isn’t the most intuitive to lock (you need to push the top button on the keypad, pull the door closed tightly, and then turn the deadbolt). But these are very minor nitpicks of an overall wonderful stay. I’d absolutely recommend this property to other couples looking for a romantic getaway.

Great for a weekend getaway!

We really enjoyed staying here for the weekend! The location is great and just a short distance from downtown. The property manager is also very responsive. We did not do any of the activities since it was a little on the cold side, but looking forward to coming back and taking advantage of those deals!

A great place to stay that’s convenient to many attractions

Wife and I stayed here for about a week in early April. It’s a smallish place but don’t let that discourage you. The owners next door were very friendly and stayed out of our way the whole time. Would definitely recommend staying here.
