Wrong Way River Lodge & Cabins: Asheville's Only Outdoor Hotel

"Such a wonderful spot to facilitate deep connection and much needed R&R! The staff is truly world class - we were so amazed at the immediacy in which they responded to every question, request, and often anticipated our needs even before we spoke them! Stefanie and Madi were really really lovely to work with. The conference room and multi-purpose room were perfect settings for all of the sessions the team facilitated, and the team loved all of the personal touches and amenities provided in their cabins and on site. We opted to return to the campfires each night over going out on the town. It meant so much to me to show my team what Asheville is all about, and Wrong Way was such a beautiful representation of that. Will certainly be keeping this location at the top of my list for future team off-sites, retreats, and other endeavors!" - Elizabeth P.

“Great location with a super friendly & helpful staff. We met 6 couples there for 5 nights each. We were close enough to bike or walk to several attractions. Yet far enough to feel like we were in our own private space. The staff set up tables, lights, & a place for us to BBQ in the “meadow” which yielded a fantastic setting to dine under the October moon. We had nightly campfires to visit & reconnect with our friends. I highly recommend the setting & the staff!” – Bill D.

“We held a small organizational multi-day meeting/retreat at Wrong Way with folks from around the East Coast, and it was a delight. The cabins are lovely and welcoming, the meeting/event space was great, and Shelton and the staff couldn't have been more hospitable. It was perfect being on the greenway and right near the river while still being within easy reach of all the good stuff Asheville has to offer. All in all a great experience!” – Rachel M.

“Wrong Way has such a happy vibe! Each staff member I encountered was friendly and helpful. The cabin was simple but had everything I needed, plus the added fun of a record player and vintage records! The attention to detail and focus on environmental care was obvious in every area. I would highly recommend Wrong Way as a base while exploring the Asheville area, or for a night’s stay while traveling through. You’ll leave refreshed either way!” – Karen K.

“Great location, welcoming staff and pet friendly accommodations. Such a gem to find - across from the greenway with biking, walking trails along the river. Clean, comfortable and adorable A-frame cabins with such a nostalgic feel and perfect place to disconnect while being close to everything Asheville has to offer. We really enjoyed making smores around the fire pit and getting to know other guests. Highly recommend!” – Angela A.

“Perfectly designed rooms, with fun amenities, direct access to the lovely French Broad river and park with great walks, a fully stocked canteen with games, lattes and delicious food and….a really friendly service-focused staff. An inviting spot for a family reunion or relaxed business off site. Hope to be back soon!” – Nathalie G.

"The team at Wrong Way River Lodge is top notch. We spent two nights for an offsite company meeting with 11 people - the entire group enjoyed the space, accommodation, location and customer service. We will absolutely be back and I highly recommend for both business and personal travel while in Asheville. Fantastic!!!" - James B.
