About this property
Private Getaway-17 miles to Asheville, Hot Tub & Fireplace, Pet Friendly
Pisgah Mountain Cabin - The perfect place for a mountain romantic getaway for two or a quiet retreat for one. Engagements, honeymoons, anniversaries, babymoons, rest, relaxation, and best vacations ever have all happened here.
Quiet, plush, cozy, charming cabin surrounded by trees where the large windows give it a treehouse feeling. Private, secluded feeling with property and forest. The cabin has a studio design with gas log fireplace, queen bed with luxury bedding, full kitchen stocked with all equipment needed to prepare gourmet meals including both K-cup/pod and automatic drip coffee makers, walk in doorless shower, large flat screen Smart TV with Spectrum basic cable, and Spectrum high-speed wireless internet. Outdoor living includes hot tub (hot tub robes provided during your stay), outdoor firepit, small deck, outdoor dining table and chairs, gas grill, and hammock. Pet-friendly allowing dog fur babies! Nature trail into portion of Pisgah National Forest accessible from the cabin property. Cabin is surrounded by the changing tree colors of yellow, orange, and red in Autumn. Views of Mount Pisgah during late Autumn and Winter. There is contactless check-in and check-out. A lock box is used for property access. We pay very special attention to cleaning and hope that you will notice our efforts.
We are located 17 miles west of downtown Asheville, 5 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway at Mount Pisgah, 18 miles from the Biltmore House & Gardens, and 23 miles from the Asheville Regional Airport. Your favorite activities are nearby if you decide to leave the cabin!

Hiking, Mountain Biking, Rafting/Kayaking, Hot Air Ballooning, Exploring Pisgah National Forest & Blue Ridge Parkway are all close to you.

Go on the Blue Ridge Parkway to Graveyard Fields at Milepost 418.8 about 12 scenic miles from cabin. Graveyard Fields is also a great place to hike and see waterfalls during the day!

About the host
Hosted by Tammy Capps
Tammy is from North Carolina and has directed non-profit youth programs and a local AmeriCorps program.
Both Carmen and Tammy work to be good stewards of the land, these mountains and our mother earth: growing our own fruits and vegetables, preserving them for the winter, recycling and composting all garbage,trying to reuse instead of buying new when possible. Efforts are always made to buy local and American made products.
After a great deal of planning and hard work, Carmen and Tammy are excited to invite you for a luxurious, romantic stay in our new cabin!

Why they chose this property
Tammy and her ex-partner, Carmen planned and built this cabin with their own two hands, while continuing to work full-time. It took two years! Starting with the goal of building a cabin with a small carbon footprint and utilizing green building techniques the two women started the project. WOW, what a project! A local builder got us off to an amazing start. With lots and lots of hard work and the loving support of our families the cabin was completed in August, 2012.
Why the property? Tammy spent most of her childhood in this area and fell in love with the beauty and majesty of these mountains in the Pisgah National Forest at an early age. When looking to move back to the area and purchase a home in 1991, she would only look at homes in the Candler/Upper Hominy area believing this to be the most beautiful community in the Asheville area. Twenty years ago Tammy began to clear land and landscape the 4-acre property. The project was worth it, as it is now a mountain oasis beyond belief.

What makes this property unique
The cabin provides all of the modern comforts in a peaceful wooded setting at the base of Mt. Pisgah. The fall and winter views of the mountain through the large glass windows are spectacular. The wooded canopy of oaks, poplar and maple cover the mountain view during the summer months, and provide cool shade for relaxing outside on the deck or patio.
The cabin was built so that passive solar would assist the heating and cooling. In addition, NC made eco panels, rostra block and other sustainable products were used as our building materials making it very well insulated, so it will use very little energy. The tankless water heater and radiant floor heat are also eco-friendly ways to conserve energy while allowing our guests to try out these new 'green' products out for themselves.
The 100 year old oak barnwood posts and inside trim throughout the cabin took several months to pull rusted nails, plane and refinish. The wood was purchased in Candler for $100.
The cabin is centrally located to so many diverse day-trip activities. There is something for everyone here!
