Unique mountain property with main house and cabin
**Barn house can be rented independently of cabin for cheaper price.**
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway which is centrally located in the Great Smoky Mountains in Western North Carolina while enjoying Winter mountain views and the wildlife and greenery of the woods during the Summer.
We have two units on the property - a barn style house with 3BR/2BA and a small mountain side cabin with 1BR/1BA. There is also a separate covered deck steps down the mountain. Other things to note We have two units on the property and they don't have to both be rented - if you only needed the barn house rented then you wouldn't be responsible for the cabin cleaning of $65.
Driveway is steep - but we have had no problem with our 2WD vehicles. However, during ice or snow it may be difficult.

The cabin is older, but it’s clean and well stocked. The area is gorgeous and quiet. Ashley was extremely responsive and helpful through the entire trip. We will definitely stay there again!
Both barn cabin and smaller cabin were beautiful and very clean! The extra little touches like the shampoo, conditioner, body wash and good (not cheap) toilet paper in each bathroom was great! Plus all the cooking amenities you could possibly need made it feel like home! The only Con I can think of, and it's very minor, is smaller cabins bathroom needs more light, very dark in there.

Thanks John! It was a pleasure hosting and I hope you got to enjoy the outdoors in the area!
This was an awesome place to stay! Very clean, great and fast communication with the property owner with country living at its finest. It was close enough to town but away from the hustle bustle of the town. The driveway was very scary and rough terrain, especially if you have a small car. One of our family members lost her slide plate under the car, she drove a Nissan Altima. I would advise having a higher vehicle. Would definitely stay again, we are already looking into booking for next year.

Thanks Lisa! The next time you come up you will be greeted with a newly paved driveway. We haven't seen it yet, but my sister is up there this weekend and hope to get some new pictures.
We are a group of 6 friends over 65, semi retired from Florida looking to cool off from the heat in the mountains. The drive to the cabin is a challenge the first time including a short drive on a one lane gravel curving road and a steep downhill drive to the cabin. Our low riding Toyota convertible required some maneuvering but we managed. Suggest to arrive before dark & follow the landlord’s directions.
The main house is well furnished, downstairs is one bedroom with a double and twin beds, the bathroom is just outside one of the bedroom doors so my husband and I slept there. The kitchen has ample dishes & silverware, nice pots, microwave, dishwasher, outdoor gas grill. Dining table with 6 chairs, living room with full sofa, love seat, chair. Laundry room with washer/dryer. Upstairs are 2 bedrooms with bath where our two single friends stayed. One of the bedrooms had a window air conditioner in addition to the central air as the upstairs can get warm in July. We compensated by turning the central air down at night and everyone was comfortable.
The 1 bedroom wood cabin is a short walk down the hill. Small kitchen, sofa, chair in living room, queen bed with attached bathroom, wall air conditioner in living room which kept the whole place cool. The other married couple slept here.
The covered pavilion is 20+ steps down and was a great place for after dinner conversation although we spent more time on the front porch drinking coffee, chatting, and catching up.
The neighbors have a large black lab mix dog who often showed up just in case any food happened to drop off the front porch. Skittish & non threatening.
Our landlord kept us apprised of a power outage and other minor issues were quickly addressed. Thank you for letting us stay in your home.
We all agreed this was the best trip to NC ever owing in no small part to our accommodation here. We cooked every night, having 2 kitchens was great. When leaving we all agreed we want to come back again next summer.
