Traveling Back in Time

In the 1940’s and 1950’s the historic Black Mountain College (BMC) operated on the grounds and built many of the more modern buildings on the site, including Sequoia Cottage and the Barns.  Many of the century’s most celebrated artists and thinkers attended the college as teachers or students: Albert Einstein, Robert Rauschenberg, Annie Albers, Merce Cunningham, Rothko and Buckminster Fuller (who designed the first geodesic dome here).  In the last few years of the college’s life, all BMC operations existed here. Lake Eden Retreat is part of the Black Mountain College Historic District and many of our buildings are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

A Look Ahead

Lake Eden Retreat is a family business and we have learned through our years in the wedding industry that more than anything else, we host families.  We have also learned that within each family, there are generally wide ranges of tastes, interests and experience.  By showcasing not only the value of our property but also the greater Asheville area, we constantly encourage visitors to explore all the opportunities this region has to offer.  Looking ahead to the future, we strive to make each journey to Lake Eden the memory of a lifetime.
