A Mountain Retreat with Room for Everyone
Group vacations are wonderful, but finding a home that keeps everyone comfortable can be a challenge. Some guests want adventure, others want downtime, and the kids may have an entirely different agenda.
The Candler Clubhouse was designed to make all those vacation styles work together.
With six bedrooms and sleeping accommodations for up to 21 overnight guests, the home is especially well suited for multiple families, multigenerational trips, family reunions, and groups of friends traveling together.
Spread across three levels, the property offers a variety of spaces for gathering and relaxing. Enjoy meals together in the kitchen and dining areas, settle into the living room for conversation, or head downstairs when the group is ready for games, movies, and a little friendly competition.
And when someone needs a quiet moment? There is room to step away without missing out on the experience.
It is the kind of setup that makes longer stays feel comfortable, group trips feel effortless, and shared memories happen naturally.
Game On: Entertainment for Every Kind of Group
If your ideal vacation includes a little competition, The Candler Clubhouse delivers.
The dedicated game spaces offer plenty of ways to turn an ordinary evening into a highlight of the trip. Challenge your friends to pool, start a ping-pong tournament, show off your basketball skills with Pop-A-Shot, or gather around shuffleboard, darts, poker, and board games.
Arcade games and oversized games add even more variety, making it easy to find something everyone wants to play.
Planning a rainy-day activity? You may not even notice the weather. With so many entertainment options under one roof, staying in can become the best part of the itinerary.
And the best part is that the fun does not have to stop when the kids head to bed. The lower level also features a speakeasy-style bar and lounge, creating a dedicated spot for adults to relax, enjoy a drink, and catch up after a full day together.
Whether your group is competitive, laid-back, or a little bit of both, there is a reason to gather around every corner.
Movie Night, Upgraded
Forget squeezing onto a small couch to watch a movie on a laptop. At The Candler Clubhouse, movie night gets its own destination.
The dedicated theater lounge features a 100-inch 4K UHD screen, surround sound, an oversized sectional, and a vintage popcorn machine.
Pile everyone in for a family movie night, stream a favorite film, watch the big game, or turn a rainy afternoon into a cozy marathon of everyone's favorite shows.
It is also a great way to wind down after exploring the Blue Ridge Mountains or spending the day discovering Asheville. Grab some popcorn, get comfortable, and let the evening unfold without having to leave home.
Sometimes the simplest vacation moments, like watching a movie together, become the ones everyone remembers.
Your Own Speakeasy-Style Hideaway
One of the standout features of The Candler Clubhouse is its speakeasy-inspired bar and lounge.
Tucked into the lower level, this inviting space gives the home a distinctive personality and creates another place for guests to connect. After dinner, bring the group downstairs for conversation, cards, games, or a relaxed evening away from the main living areas.
The speakeasy pairs perfectly with the home's entertainment spaces, making it easy to transition from a lively game tournament to a more laid-back night with friends.
It is an especially appealing feature for birthday weekends, reunions, and group getaways where the best plans are often the ones that happen spontaneously.
Mountain Views, Hot Tub Soaks, and Evenings Around the Fire
Of course, a mountain escape would not be complete without time outdoors.
Step onto the deck and take in the Blue Ridge Mountain surroundings. The hot tub offers a relaxing place to unwind after a day of hiking, sightseeing, or simply enjoying time with your favorite people.
When the evening air turns crisp, gather around the outdoor fire pit in Adirondack chairs. Share stories from the day, enjoy a quiet conversation, or settle in beneath the night sky.
For meals outside, the home offers outdoor dining and a gas grill, making it easy to plan a casual cookout without coordinating a restaurant reservation for a large group.
There is also a spacious yard with family-friendly outdoor activities, including cornhole, bocce, giant Connect Four, and more. Kids can enjoy the playground while adults relax nearby, creating an outdoor setup that works for different ages and interests.
Whether you prefer a slow morning outdoors or a lively evening around the fire, the outdoor spaces offer another way to enjoy the mountain setting.
Stay Active on Your Own Schedule
For guests who enjoy fitting in a workout while traveling, The Candler Clubhouse has a private gym equipped for a variety of fitness routines.
The space includes a Peloton Bike+, Smith machine, cable crossover, free weights, squat rack, yoga mats, and additional fitness gear.
Start your morning with a ride, squeeze in a strength session before heading into Asheville, or enjoy a little movement between meals and activities.
Having a dedicated fitness space makes it easier to maintain your routine without leaving the property, while the surrounding mountain scenery offers plenty of motivation to get outside and explore, too.
A Family-Friendly Retreat That Keeps Kids in Mind
Traveling with children often means packing extra activities, planning around different schedules, and finding ways to keep everyone entertained.
At The Candler Clubhouse, the little details help make family travel easier.
The indoor playroom features a climbing wall, play kitchen, teepee, toys, and books, giving younger guests a space of their own. Outside, the playground and lawn games offer room to burn off energy and enjoy time in the fresh air.
The home also provides thoughtful family-friendly essentials, including a high chair, Pack ’n Plays, kid-friendly dishes and utensils, board games, and children's books.
For families traveling with several generations, these features make it easier for everyone to settle in and enjoy the trip. Kids can explore their dedicated play spaces, teens can head for the game rooms, and adults can enjoy some time together knowing there is plenty to keep the younger guests occupied.
And with multiple living and gathering spaces throughout the home, family time can feel connected without everyone needing to do the same thing at once.
A Kitchen Made for Gathering
Some of the best vacation memories happen around the table.
The Candler Clubhouse features a chef's kitchen stocked with cookware, baking pans, utensils, serving pieces, and everyday cooking essentials. A Keurig coffee maker with K-cups, a drip coffee setup, a blender, toaster, electric kettle, and mixer help make everything from early breakfasts to celebratory dinners easier.
With seating for approximately 16 guests across the formal dining room, breakfast nook, and kitchen bar, there are several ways to bring everyone together for meals.
Picture a slow breakfast before a day of exploring, a big family dinner after an afternoon on the Blue Ridge Parkway, or a late-night snack after an unexpectedly competitive game tournament.
For larger groups, having the option to cook at home can make the stay feel more personal and flexible. You can plan a special meal, keep favorite snacks on hand, and enjoy the freedom to eat on your own schedule.
The home also offers a washer and dryer, high-speed Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, and multiple climate-controlled areas to support a comfortable stay.
Explore Asheville and the Blue Ridge Mountains
One of the biggest advantages of The Candler Clubhouse is its location. You can enjoy a peaceful mountain setting while remaining close to some of western North Carolina's best-known attractions.
The home is approximately 15 minutes from downtown Asheville, the Biltmore Estate, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, making it a convenient home base for exploring the area.
Discover Downtown Asheville
Spend an afternoon wandering through downtown Asheville, browsing local shops, discovering art galleries, or finding a new favorite restaurant. The city is known for its creative spirit, distinctive local businesses, craft beverage scene, and lively food culture.
Whether you want a relaxed coffee stop, a memorable dinner, or an afternoon exploring the city's character, Asheville offers plenty of ways to personalize your trip.
Visit the Biltmore Estate
For history, architecture, and beautiful grounds, plan a visit to the Biltmore Estate. Explore the grand historic home, stroll through the gardens when in season, or enjoy the estate's scenic surroundings.
It is a wonderful option for couples, families, and multigenerational groups looking to add a memorable cultural experience to their mountain getaway.
Take a Scenic Drive Along the Blue Ridge Parkway
The Blue Ridge Parkway is an essential part of the western North Carolina experience. Plan a scenic drive, stop at overlooks, take photographs, or choose a hiking trail that suits your group's interests and abilities.
The views change with the seasons, from lush summer greenery to brilliant autumn foliage, making the area worth revisiting throughout the year. Check current road conditions and closures before setting out, particularly during winter or periods of severe weather.
Make Time for the Mountains
Beyond the main attractions, the Asheville area offers opportunities for hiking, outdoor exploration, scenic drives, and discovering the smaller communities throughout the region.
You can build a trip around outdoor adventure or keep the itinerary relaxed with a few local stops before returning to the house for a soak in the hot tub and an evening around the fire.
And because The Candler Clubhouse offers so much entertainment at home, there is no pressure to fill every hour with an activity.
A Place for Family Reunions, Friend Getaways, and Special Celebrations
The Candler Clubhouse is designed for more than a quick weekend away. Its generous gathering spaces and varied amenities make it a natural choice for occasions when bringing everyone together matters most.
Think annual family reunions, milestone birthdays, friends' weekends, multigenerational vacations, or a getaway where several households can share one home instead of booking separate accommodations.
The property can also be considered for select weddings and special events with advance approval. Events are subject to the property's requirements, which may include an additional fee, a signed event agreement, liability insurance, a guest list, and a parking plan. Overnight occupancy remains limited to 21 guests, and event approval must be confirmed before booking.
If you are planning a special gathering, reach out before reserving so the team can help determine whether the home is a suitable fit.
Whatever brings your group to Asheville, the goal is the same: create space for people to reconnect, celebrate, laugh, and enjoy being together.
Thoughtful Details for a More Comfortable Stay
A great group vacation is about more than impressive amenities. It is also about having the practical details covered.
Guests have private access to the home's indoor and outdoor amenities, including the game rooms, movie lounge, speakeasy, gym, hot tub, fire pit, playground, and gathering areas.
Self check-in is available through smart locks, with arrival instructions and access details provided before check-in. A digital guest guide helps guests navigate the home, learn about the amenities, and discover local recommendations.
The property also offers fresh linens, bath towels, bathroom essentials, hair dryers, a coffee setup, kitchen supplies, and other everyday necessities.
The Candler Clubhouse is located in a residential neighborhood, so respectful group behavior and observance of quiet hours are important. The driveway accommodates approximately five to seven vehicles, and guests should keep vehicles in the driveway rather than parking on the street or lawn. Pets may be considered with prior approval and an applicable fee.
These practical touches help make the home a comfortable base for groups who want the space to relax and enjoy their time together.
Your Next Asheville Adventure Starts Here
The best group getaways leave everyone with a story to tell.
Maybe it is the unexpected pool tournament that lasts until midnight. Maybe it is the kids discovering their favorite corner of the playroom, the whole family settling in for a movie, or a quiet evening soaking in the hot tub while the mountains fade into the distance.
At The Candler Clubhouse, there are countless ways to make the trip your own.
With six bedrooms, accommodations for up to 21 overnight guests, mountain views, a speakeasy-style lounge, an immersive movie theater, two game areas, a private gym, family-friendly play spaces, and easy access to Asheville's attractions, this newly launched retreat offers a fresh way to experience the Blue Ridge Mountains.
