If you're in the Asheville area, you must visit The Grove Park Inn Resort & Spa. Flames pirouette like skinny dancers in the
wide, towering stacked rock fireplace in the Great Hall. They'll mesmerize you as you relax cradled in one of the nearby rocking
chairs. Or grab a glass of the inn's own vinted Cabernet or Chardonnay, and slip outside to the Sunset Terrace. Your eye will
carry you over the resort's manicured golf course (quite challenging, by the way) and surrounding neighborhood on to the mountains.
It's still one of the best, most relaxing views in all of Asheville.
Escape to the 40,000-square-foot spa, wonderfully designed as an underground grotto, and indulge yourself in a treatment.
You'll find water, water everywhere, so take a swim beneath the waterfall cascading into a glorious heated pool. --Tanner C. Latham
