About the offering

SKYLARANNA Resort and SPA Company Summary SKYLARANNA is a luxury mountain resort in Hendersonville, North Carolina offering rooms, cabins, spa services, an event venue, and casual dining. The property is profitable with nearly $2M in 2025 revenue, and the founders have invested over $10,000,000 of their own capital. This is the first time the resort is open to outside investors, offering 6% convertible preferred stock that is senior to the founders' common equity at the same valuation as the founders' investment. The Wefunder campaign has raised $105,000 toward a $150,000 goal (70% funded) from a small number of investors, with the offering ending April 30. The Problem The luxury mountain hospitality market in western North Carolina serves growing demand from travelers seeking upscale resort experiences outside major metropolitan areas. Hendersonville sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Asheville, a region experiencing strong tourism growth. The specific market gap SKYLARANNA addresses is not detailed beyond the general positioning as a luxury mountain resort with multiple revenue streams (lodging, spa, events, dining). The Solution SKYLARANNA operates as a full-service luxury mountain resort combining multiple hospitality revenue streams: guest rooms, cabins, spa and wellness services, an event venue (weddings, corporate retreats, private events), and a casual dining restaurant. The integrated model captures revenue across lodging, wellness, food and beverage, and events from the same property and guest base. No specific details about the property size, number of rooms/cabins, spa facilities, event capacity, or dining concept were provided in the available materials. Business Model Revenue comes from room and cabin bookings, spa services, event venue rentals, and food and beverage operations. The resort reports nearly $2M in 2025 revenue, indicating an operational business generating meaningful hospitality revenue. The founders' $10M+ personal investment suggests a substantial physical property with significant real estate value underlying the business. The 6% convertible preferred structure provides investors with a current yield (6% dividend/interest) plus conversion optionality, senior to the founders' common stock—an investor-favorable structure for a hospitality real estate investment. Traction Nearly $2M in 2025 revenue (profitable). Founders have invested $10M+ of personal capital. The Wefunder campaign has raised $105,000 toward a $150,000 goal from what appears to be a very small number of investors (the quick facts page showed 1 investor at $5,000, but the campaign page shows $105,000—suggesting recent momentum). The property is operational and generating revenue. The offering is described as "limited availability" and closing April 30. No occupancy rates, ADR (average daily rate), RevPAR, event booking volume, spa revenue, or growth metrics were disclosed. Team Co-Founder Kevin J. High (SPV Voting Proxy) brings 25 years in hospitality and vacation rentals (dating back to before Airbnb existed) plus 35 years of Wall Street experience in finance, structuring, and business growth.
