Private Event Venue in Western NC
Celebrations with Intention. Moments in Motion.
Built for More Than Weddings
Some spaces are designed for one kind of day. Chestnut Ridge was built for all of them. For milestones, reunions, retreats, and evenings that deserve to feel effortless.
West of Asheville, the mountains hold the same stillness no matter the reason you gather. Inside, the light shifts through timber and glass, and every table, toast, and conversation feels anchored in design and ease. This is where celebrations breathe; private, grounded, and filled with presence.
Above and Beyond
The Camino team always does an amazing job. They go above and beyond and provide a truly personalized and thoughtful experience. As a full-service event planner, I am always looking for teams like theirs who I can trust to provide an experience for our clients that our client will remember. They are helpful, hardworking, easy to work with, and extremely talented! From inquiry to a private cocktail tasting to a 10/10 execution on the day of, I know when Chestnut Ridge is working an event it will be truly spectacular for every guest!”

The Architecture of Connection
Every gathering begins with a sense of flow. The chapel becomes a private concert hall, the patio turns into an open-air dinner, the main hall transforms under candlelight and conversation. Our spaces are flexible but never generic. Crafted to move with the energy of the occasion.
Guests wander without needing direction. Music drifts across the lawn. The evening takes on its own rhythm, framed by mountain silhouettes and the subtle hum of connection.
Crafted for Presence
Whether it’s a company retreat or a family milestone, our philosophy remains the same: intention before excess. We plan with precision, design with restraint, and execute with care that stays invisible once the doors open.
Hospitality here doesn’t announce itself. It moves quietly. A chair adjusted, a light dimmed, a glass refilled before you notice it’s empty. What looks effortless is built on rhythm, experience, and heart.
