COUNTRY HAVEN OPEN FOR BUSINESS ,MT VIEWS,10MIN AVL,3/2,FP ,WIFI, FIREPIT

I traveled to the mountains where the eagles made their nests. There I saw the hand of God: I saw creation at its best.......To lighten your heart, ease your mind, relax your body, renew your spirit and heighten your sense of awareness to the peace and contentment found in the wonderful gifts of nature, there is no better place than the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Great Smoky Mountains, and, as our many visitors know, COUNTRY HAVEN is where to experience it all. This magical retreat is an authentic log cabin filled with beautiful antiques and many articles handcrafted with care by the owner adding a touch of warmth and charm to every room. For your comfort and pleasure, no detail has been overlooked. The cabin is well appointed to assure a comfortable stay. If you love peace and quiet, you will not be disappointed. This alluring cabin and our smaller cabin 'Tranquility Knoll' are situated on 1 1/2 acres of privately owned land, nestled among rolling hills with majestic mountains in the background. As you relax on the wrap-around covered porch or breakfast on the deck, you will enjoy the scenic view along with the country sounds of chickens, cows, and horses on the neighboring land. You will be pleasantly surprised when wild turkeys wander by. Sitting quietly, you can even hear them munching on the grasses' .Evenings sit around the firepit and roast your marshmallows.

Fishing trip in Western NC

We enjoyed the proximity for fishing. The cabin is centrally located to Cherokee, the Davidson River, Mills River and other great streams in western North Carolina. The furniture and beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked.

Amazing family stay!

This experience was exceptional. The cabin was incredibly well stocked and absolutely spotless. Everything was thought of by Linde, and it was beautiful. The surrounding area is calm, quiet, and peaceful. We felt so comfortable and very much at home. We fully plan to return! The cabin is centrally located to a number of destinations, but is perfect to come home to. We couldn't have imagined better experience!

Girls weekend

Perfect stay to catch up with girlfriends. All the special touches and accommodations made the stay like home. We did not need anything except our selves and the food we wanted to eat. Cookware and condiments were provided. Beds were super comfy with plenty of blankets. We especially enjoyed the blankets provided on the porch to enjoy the view of mountain range without freezing. We will definitely come again.

Flawless Vacation Cabin Experience

It was my first trip to the Asheville area in years and this cabin did not disappoint. Easy drive into town, but rural and pastoral setting. Cabin was clean and in immaculate condition. I used to rent out a cabin of my own, so I know how hard it is to keep it in that type of condition. Relaxing and private and the owner made the process a breeze. A lot of helpful instructions onsite. I would definitely stay there again. My gratitude to the owner for a wonderful experience and for making it easy.

Birthday surprise

Surprised my husband for his 65th birthday with a couple of friends meeting us at the house before leaving for our trip to the mountains and then our daughter later at the cabin. He was really surprised as well at the sight of the cabin . The cabin was perfect and so comfortable even though we did have some stormy weather . It’s a close distance to Asheville and anything you’d look for yet quiet and serene. We felt very cared for and my husband said it was the best birthday he’s had . We would love to return and spend more time at the cabin itself since we were on the go so much ( although that was fun too!). Than you so much .
