Location:
A log cabin at the top of picturesque White Oak Mountain, and a private and exclusive community. Located less than 10 minutes up the mountain from downtown Columbus, via very scenic, windy mountain roads, (fully paved the entire drive). The home is app. only 20 minutes from the Tryon International Equestrian Center. You are app. 35 minutes to Asheville Regional airport, and 20 minutes to downtown Tryon. You are also within driving distance of Greenville, Asheville, and Charlotte.

Accommodations:
3 bedroom, 2 full baths, Powder Rm bath
Occupancy Summary / Sleeps in beds: 10 Max. Occupancy: 10
(PLEASE NOTE: Yonder provides linens for all beds; other occupancy will require guests providing their own linens.)

Home Truths: This is a family home and a family area. This house is only rented to families or responsible adult groups. Over 25 only please.

Description:
Skyview is a perfect gathering spot for artists, readers, hikers, cyclists, runners, families, TIEC equestrian crowd, and/or those just looking to get-away from it all. Perched atop White Oak Mountain, at an elevation of 3,000 feet, the cabin offers glorious sunrise views, stargazing, mountain views, and nature in abundance!

Skyview was built as a mountaintop retreat to escape Florida Summers, and has grown and expanded since then to be a larger and even more welcoming gathering spot. In the Summertime, the top of White Oak Mountain is 10 degrees cooler than down in the valley. Once you reach the top of White Oak & Skyview, you discover the silence, followed by the sounds of nature; the wind in the trees, the rustle of the leaves, and nature all around. This is a perfect home if you're seeking time to unwind, read a book or take a slow hike and listen to nature.

As you look out across the mountains you see hawks soaring below, and often a blanket of clouds softens the view of the valleys below. Every direction you look could be a painting. In fact, other than Native Americans who originally settled the region, some of the first cabins atop White Oak Mountain were built by painters captivated by the light on the surrounding mountains.

Inside you'll find all the comforts of home. Three bedrooms provide ample sleeping, with plenty more room for air mattresses for overflow. A well equipped kitchen with plenty of small appliances makes mealtime a breeze. Lofty ceilings in the living room lend an airy feel to the open floor-plan space. A large TV with streaming content and comfortable seating lend that “put your feet up and relax” vibe. All these comforts will feel good after a long day at the showgrounds or exploring the area. Wi-Fi will keep you connected and allow those who work from home to not miss a beat.

Of course you are in horse country, and the TIEC. The Tryon International Equestrian Center is a year round venue located in Mill Spring, NC and is the world's premier Equestrian Lifestyle Destination showcasing some of the top riders in the Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, and Eventing disciplines.

This property is also just a short drive from the quaint village of Tryon. Enjoy all sorts of new restaurants, shops, and a growing small-town America downtown vibe, with festivals and other activities year-round.

You are less than an hour from America's favorite scenic byway, The Blue Ridge Parkway, motorcycle touring, biking, hiking, white water rafting, rock climbing, kayaking, canoeing, zip lining, Segway tour…just about any outdoor activity! Or, take a day-trip to downtown Asheville to enjoy the first-rate restaurants, shopping, galleries, spas, and entertainment.

Beautiful view, needs some updating and nosy neighbor!
Skyview is a lovely cabin, spacious with beautiful views. We were a family of 10 over Thanksgiving, which involved a lot of cooking and the outdated kitchen made it challenging (old stove/oven and microwave from the 1990s!). One of the bedrooms has a pull-out couch that is extremely uncomfortable. DO NOT SLEEP ON IT! When we arrived, it was 58 degrees in the house and we quickly discovered the heat is locked and requires a PIN to unlock. Guests have no control over the temperature--it's controlled by the owner's cell phone from afar and the highest temp they give guests is 68 degrees. We were traveling with three elderly family members (between the ages of 83-88) and they had to wear coats the majority of the time while in the house. If you want to be warm, bring your own space heater and many blankets (they only had one blanket in the entire house!). Beware of the camera on the front porch and be mindful of a neighbor who may be monitoring your every move, including # of cars parked in the driveway, # of dogs you bring, and false accusations of theft (we were accused and reported to the HOA of stealing a sign from the top of the Meadow because we were the only renters, so it had to be us! Never mind there were wind gusts of 20-30 mph while we were there!). This is a residential community which we were respectful of, but it is very clear they don't like Skyview being a rental property! Though the cabin is lovely, we will not return due to how we were treated.

Nice cabin but smaller than looks in pictures. Needs some updating.
We had planned to go out on Saturday and Sunday in the local and surrounding areas to do activities mainly geared towards the children. After driving up what can only be described as a horrendous road no one wanted to go down again until we left. And in fact we left a day early because rain was forecast for Monday and no one wanted to attempt going down it in the rain. As there was only 1 TV in the entire 4 bedroom 2 living room cabin. Definitely not enough. Though it was ok we would never go back to it again because the road terrified almost everyone. Directions should include NOT going around (behind) the condominiums as that added over 2 more miles onto the drive and it was definitely even worse.

Best view ever
The only complaint would be that the listing said 8 miles to TIEC and it was farther than that with an extreme drive up the mountain that caught me off guard. I was here working so have long days and driving up the mountain at night was a bit stressful . Otherwise it was an oasis with lots of room, views to die for, a great dining room table and games that we played every night. The most relaxing work week I have had in a long time dur to this house.

Beautiful location
The drive up the mountain is amazing, with beautiful views. We saw deer numerous times and bear twice on the ride. There are a few very steep climbs and switchbacks, so be sure you have good brakes before you begin. The property is set back from the edge, so do not expect to walk out on the deck and have an uninterrupted vista. The view is certainly there, but you have to walk out to the road for the long distance views. Also, don’t assume that there will be rocking chairs or comfortable seating waiting for you in the front porch. Sadly, when we visited, there were two dirty plastic chairs. That’s it. The porch is long and wide and could be amazing, but it needs furniture. The Adirondack furnishings in the pictures on a small back porch and are cable-locked into place. The interior of the house was clean and comfortable. (Be aware that you are NOT allowed to build a fire in the fireplace. That was disappointing.) The beds are comfortable and we found bath towels, hand towels, and wash cloths nicely arranged and waiting on top of each. Plenty of hot water in the showers . Cheap single-ply toilet paper in the bathrooms, but the home is on septic so I understand. The kitchen was well supplied and had everything we needed. There are very large windows in the rear den that have a very nice view, so we spent out time in there. Did we enjoy our time on White Oak mountain? Yes. Would we rent this same property again? Maybe, but probably not.
