The Blue Ridge's most intimate thermal retreat
Disconnect to reconnect in total seclusion. Your private thermal retreat—minutes from civilization, worlds away from everything else.
Wellness.
Immerse yourself in the ancient ritual of hot and cold therapy—designed for two, surrounded by nature. Our private thermal circuit includes a traditional barrel sauna that reaches 194°F, a 4-person hot tub with panoramic mountain views, an outdoor soaking tub for hot or cold plunges, and a refreshing double-head barrel shower.
Alternate between heat and cold to boost circulation, reduce stress, and deepen relaxation. Whether you're unwinding after a hike or simply savoring the stillness together, every element is crafted for your complete privacy and comfort. No crowds. No schedules. Just you, your partner, and the healing power of water and heat.
Escape.
Soulrest Sanctuary is your own private world—where the only agenda is rest, and the only company is each other.
Start your mornings with coffee on the deck as birdsong fills the air. Spend afternoons stretching in the yoga pavilion or reading on the flagstone patio, wrapped in the quiet rustle of leaves. As evening falls, fire up the grill for dinner under the trees, gather around the crackling firepit, or settle into the covered porch for a movie beneath the stars.
Every space here invites you to exhale. To disconnect from the noise. To rediscover what it feels like to simply be—together, unhurried, surrounded by nothing but forest and sky.
Sanctuary.
This is more than a getaway—it's a refuge. A place where time slows, distractions fade, and the two of you can finally breathe.
At Soulrest Sanctuary, every detail whispers luxury. From the moment you arrive, you're wrapped in comfort and care—spaces designed for rest, touches that anticipate your needs, an atmosphere that invites you to let go completely.
No itineraries. No other guests. No interruptions. Just warmth, stillness, and the rare gift of uninterrupted time together. This is your space to restore what daily life depletes—connection, calm, and presence.

Our Guests are raving!
"This was by far the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Everything was perfect. Everything that was needed to make this trip the best experience was there. Very neat and clean. James was a wonderful host! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience and made accommodations as needed being that it was my husbands birthday. He also communicated perfectly and was so kind. I will definitely book and recommend this stay for future bookings."

"Perfect. I’d give it more stars if I could. I came here for my annual unplug to recharge trip: somewhere quiet, mountain-y, and peaceful where I can hike, read, and rediscover hobbies. This cabin was absolutely perfect for that. I don’t need six bedrooms and a pinball machine or a heart-shaped bed with his-and-hers slippers (or whatever, use your imagination). This place was designed for my kind of getaway. It’s a small, but incredibly cozy space - and the owners put so much love and care into every detail. And the outdoor space? Unreal. It rained almost the whole time, and I didn’t care once. Sitting in the sauna at sunset with fall leaves all around, then showering in the rain? My new happy place. The aesthetic is #goals and the vibes are unmatched. 10/5 stars."

"We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay! This was exactly what we needed and was beyond perfect. James was an exemplary host we couldn't have felt more welcome. Every detail was thought of right down to the heated towel rack and labels on the light switches. It was so nice to have all of the great spa amenities without having to worry about privacy or sharing them. It was like our own little cozy hideout with everything we needed. There are great trails and waterfalls nearby too, and close to the cute little town of Walhalla where we visited an awesome brewery/pizzeria. We only wish we booked a longer stay- one night simply wasn't enough!"
