The Blue Ridge's most intimate thermal retreat
One cabin. One couple at a time. Minutes from civilization, worlds away from everything else.
A private mountain retreat designed for two.
Tucked into the Blue Ridge foothills, Soulrest was created for couples seeking something increasingly rare: uninterrupted time together.
No crowds. No hotel hallways. No shared amenities.
Just a private cabin, a forest setting, and the time to reconnect with the one who matters most.
Wellness without schedules. Comfort without crowds.
The hot tub, barrel Sauna, outdoor soaking tub, and barrel shower are yours alone.
Move between them however you like. Spend an afternoon in the hot tub with a glass of wine. Watch daylight fade into dusk from the elevated panoramic window sauna. Fill the soaking tub with ice for a refreshing cold plunge—or simply enjoy it as a peaceful outdoor bath beneath the trees.
There are no appointments to make and no strangers to share the experience with. Only your own rhythm.
Panoramic barrel sauna
Dry heat, steam rocks, forest views, and the quiet stillness of seclusion.
Outdoor Soaking Tub
Use it as a traditional hot soaking tub or add ice for an invigorating cold plunge experience.
Private hot tub
Tucked beneath a rustic Appalachian shelter, the hot tub invites slow conversations by the wood burning fireplace, drifting steam, and evenings that linger long after sunset.
Open air barrel shower
Open to the sky and surrounded by nature—the perfect refresh between moments of relaxation.
The place is truly yours...
No shared facilities. No strangers or staff. No waiting your turn.
From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, every space has been prepared exclusively for you.
Privacy is Paramount
No shared spa, no staff, no parties in a room next door. Just one couple and the healing powers of water, fire, and nature.
Body and Soul
Keep your routine with an Outdoor exercise and Yoga Pavilion stocked with mats, hand weights, Keiser stationary bike and more.
A Gateway to the Great Outdoors
Minutes from waterfalls, hiking trails, mountain lakes, scenic rivers, and world-class whitewater rafting—adventure is never far away.
Wake Slowly
Birdsong fills the air before the kettle finishes. Two mugs, the railing, the sunlight peeking through the leaves — the day begins without asking anything of you.
Unplug and Recharge
Stretch in the open-air yoga pavilion.
Read beneath the canopy.
Explore nearby waterfalls and mountain roads—or do absolutely nothing at all.
Some guests spend the afternoon adventuring.
Others never leave the property.
Both are exactly right.
Where the World Gets Quiet
As evening settles over the mountains, the pace of the day begins to fade with it.
Crickets and crackling firewood break the silence of night.
Melt into the hot tub.
Watch the stars emerge one at a time and enjoy the rare luxury of uninterrupted intimacy.
Intentionally for Two
One bedroom of intentionality-- not six bedrooms of compromise.
An intimate retreat thoughtfully designed around the experience of one couple at a time.
Every detail—from the heated towel rack to the private spa amenities to the peaceful setting—exists for a single purpose:
To help you leave feeling more rested, more connected, and more renewed than when you arrived.
More Than a Place to Stay
A slower pace.
A deeper connection.
A sense of renewal that stayed with them long after they returned home.
Read why are guests often become our best ambassadors!
