About this property

Welcome to the Squirrel's Nest! This home was built in 2007 and has been used as a vacation rental home. Our family rented it on numerous occasions and fell in love. We were recently given the opportunity to purchase the home and did so without hesitation. The welcoming community, spectacular views and cozy cabin feel are all you need to feel right at home.

Our home sleeps 10 people comfortably, with room to relax and play inside and out. Enjoy the amazing decks - a covered main deck with rockers which wraps around to a large deck with a picnic table, gas grill and amazing westward views of the Blue Ridge Mountains as well as Mount Mitchell. Three of the bedrooms also have private balconies - the perfect place to escape for some peace and quiet. The main level master suite includes an extra long bathtub for you to stretch out in and relax. The downstairs living space includes a pool table, shuffleboard table and a closet full of movies and board games to make your stay fun no matter the weather.

Our home is located off Interstate 40, outside of Morganton and Marion, NC. There's so much to do within a 30-60 mile radius: breweries, wineries, shopping, hiking and more! We hope you visit the Squirrel's Nest.

a long weekend of pure bliss

This lovely home provided my siblings, spouses and myself the perfect setting to celebrate my father's 91st birthday. The house and property are in tip-top shape, fastidiously cleaned and perfectly maintained. The quiet location in a secluded, friendly, safe neighborhood is well worth the effort of stocking up on groceries beforehand. Every feature, from the house's situation on the property, to the structural soundness and thoughtful design, shows care and pride of ownership. Every amenity has been chosen for the comfort and convenience of guests. The kitchen is amazingly well-stocked for serious cooking, but also orderly and uncluttered. The pool table, games, puzzles and movies are plenty to keep the whole crowd occupied, although we spent our time cooking and talking. The porch is a huge draw, with eight rockers, a covered area, a wonderful gas grill, and a spectacular view of sunsets and the night sky. Each bedroom is a welcome retreat, outfitted with sumptuous sheets and luxurious Turkish towels. And finally, the owners are just good people, generous and thoughtful, and their kindness and consideration made all the difference in our stay. It was our great pleasure to spend a long weekend together at their house.

Relaxing Mountain Stay

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Squirrels Nest and the house was beautiful. The hosts had thought of everything and were so accommodating. We loved the porch/balconies and the rocking chairs were the perfect way to enjoy the sunset and sunrises. Our group already is talking about coming back next year! We traveled with 5 kids under 5 and the house layout and accommodations helped to make our stay enjoyable as parents.
