About this property

Beautifully-restored 200-year-old Log Cabin off the Blue Ridge Parkway

Painstakingly deconstructed, transported, and lovingly rebuilt and restored in picturesque Little Switzerland, NC, our 200-year-old cabin nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains offers antique charm with modern convenience. Whether it's for a weekend getaway or a 2-week vacation, come enjoy log cabin life the way it used to be.

Like the sound of rain on a tin roof? We've got you covered. Looking for outdoor adventure? Trails, waterfalls, fishing, and gem mining are only minutes away. Or drive right down the road and hop on the Blue Ridge Parkway to view the changing leaves amid some of the most breathtaking scenery on the east coast.

Our cabin features 2 rustic bedrooms upstairs - the master bedroom with a queen size bed and another with a full size bed. Downstairs, relax in the spacious living room with a gas log fireplace, TV, DVD player, wifi and sleeper sofa. The cozy kitchen has what you'll need for your trip, and the 30' front porch with rocking chairs and quaint back porch with gas grill and fire pit will help your worries fade away, mountain-style. All cabin water is fed from an artesian underground spring right on the property for some of the best tasting water you've ever had.

We welcome you to where our family has lived for generations, and we're right up the road if you have questions or if anything needs attention. We know you'll love our cabin as much as we do!

Anniversary Weekend

Perfect spot for us. The cabin was very well done and still in keeping with the style and heritage of the structure. Quiet and off the beaten path, just what we were looking for. A great spot to explore the area and region.

Nice weekend

Very nice cabin that was easy to find, and was as listed. I found the cabin to be well appointed with everything I needed. I really appreciate that I could bring my dog and I would definitely rent again as it was very private

Step back in Time

This is a authentic log house that is amazing. The kitchen was beautifully stocked with great kitchen gear. It was incredible quiet and peaceful. There is a home directly next door but we only heard the people living there talking 2 nights. The best location for just about anything you would like to do. Great Place Highly recommend it.

Mountain Retreat

We had a wonderful time at this special property! Martha is a wonderful host and the cabin is very charming, comfortable and historic. Everywhere you look in the cabin has something interesting even a spinning wheel! We enjoyed several hikes in the area and a lunch at the Switzerland Inn. We hope to return one day!

Fantastic stay

This was a beautiful, rustic cabin located near the Blue Ridge Parkway. The cabin looked 200 years old on the outside but was very modern on the inside and had all the necessary amenities. There were several nice hikes within minutes of the cabin including the Crabtree Falls hike featuring one of the largest falls in the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to rent this cabin again if we’re in the area.

Heavenly

This cabin was very beautiful and peaceful. We have not had a vacation in over 8 years and this was just what we needed. The trails on the property are awesome. The rain on the tin roof was very relaxing. It also snowed overnight on our last nigt there it was so beautiful to wake up to. Martha and Dan have a great cabin with everything you would ever need.
