OM Sanctuary

"Unique experience! Surprisingly calming vibe. Would recommend for Yogi's and those wanting to enjoy a different experience."

"Thoroughly enjoyed my relaxing stay at this wonderful gem! The food is fabulous!!! The grounds have a way of settling you in and the staff are helpful and welcoming. It was refreshing to have no TV and see people actually interacting instead of everyone on their phones! It was also a great change to stay in a small place without many others around"

"Very tranquil. Staff was so friendly but yoga instructors really stood out. The yoga classes were included as well as meditation. My husband enjoyed the walking trails and was very content to let me attend classes. Meals were generous and yummy. We stayed in a cottage which I highly recommend. Private with a sweet porch. Place is older but was very clean and roomy. Can't wait to go back with a group of my yoga friends and take advantage of more than just yoga."

"Cabins were great- well furnished, bright and cozy. Fireplace was a nice touch. There is no Wi-Fi or TV, so expect to unplug and enjoy the quiet mountain air. OM has a small on-site staff and they are really particular about the 4:00pm check in time. Don't expect to check in early if you haven't made prior arrangements with the staff. Garden was beautiful, flowers in bloom and waterfall was still running at the end of September when we visited. There are snacks for purchase, but hot herbal teas or cool water are free. Breakfast was not that great. Buffet style. Bacon was raw and eggs were way over cooked to the point of no return. Honey, granola and yogurt were tasty and enough to fill up on before heading to town or the River Arts district. You are right next to the French Broad River and can easily get out at one of the public accesses close to the OM. Location of OM is great- close to downtown and plenty of great restaurants and breweries to choose from."
