North CarolinaWelcome to Avery Creek
Avery Creek is an area of Arden (South Asheville). If you like being close to shopping, this area has the Asheville Outlets and Biltmore Park right around the corner.
Interested in getting outside for some hiking and nature experiences? You’re also close to Bent Creek Park, the NC Arboretum, and Lake Julian Park (which also has a playground, boats, and disc golf!)
