Cabin sleeps Two in the loft bedroom in a queen size bed.
Come and stay at Gwen’s Cozy Cabin. Our cabin is situated just outside of Rosman, NC nestled on Line Runner Ridge Lake in the mountains.
Great romantic setting for couples!
Our adorable log cabin is a 1 bedroom loft with a queen size bed and a full bath. It is 930 square feet of coziness, constructed of large logs which makes it very unique. Wake up and gaze out at the lake without getting out of bed or better yet, have breakfast in bed, it has a great view from the loft. Enjoy spending days around the cabin, we have fishing (catch and release only), two kayaks and one canoe for lazy trips around the lake. Go swimming right outside your front door to cool down. Bring your dog, there is a large fenced in back yard for hours of play time. Cook on our charcoal grill (charcoal included) and enjoy a great meal at the picnic table or on our large front porch. If you enjoy walking, walk on the many miles of roads on Line Runner Ridge, take a hike in the woods or around the lake. After a long day at the cabin, enjoy the fire pit in the back yard fixing smore's or grab a drink and take a relaxing bath in our old fashion claw foot bath tub with tee light candles. Play some good old fashion board games or just kick back and watch TV. The living room has an electric “old fashion stove” to set the mood. Our unique kitchen is filled with everything you need, from cooking a gourmet meal or just hot dogs, it comes complete with a gas stove and oven, microwave convection oven, coffee maker, coffee, tea pot with soothing tea, toaster oven and a dishwasher.

Want to venture out to sight see? There are so many quaint shops in Brevard, which are only 30 minutes away. Visit the many restaurants and shops in our area. Brevard is the land of waterfalls, hiking, biking, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, golf, tennis, skiing, horseback riding and for the adventurer in you, how about zip lining. Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Park are just 30 minutes from the cabin. Check out www.visitwaterfalls.com .

No worries, if Brevard doesn’t have enough for you, Biltmore House and Grove Park Inn are only an hour away in Asheville. Asheville is a great city to visit for shopping, arts, walks and many parks to visit. You can even hop on the Blue Ridge Park Way, and enjoy the scenery and dine at the Pisgah Inn.

Great Getaway!

The cabin was wonderful! We enjoyed the beautiful lake view while sitting on the porch sipping a glass of wine. We were so happy to be able to have our dogs stay with us. They loved the large fenced yard! There is no negative evidence that any dogs have ever been in the cabin. It is immaculate!! Very nice relaxing getaway.

Peaceful Cabin

Gwen is an incredible host! She had absolutely everything we needed. My husband and I stayed Fourth of July weekend with our two dogs. It was the perfect place to spend the holiday weekend! Very peaceful and little to no fireworks (our dogs are afraid of the noise). Our two year old lab even learned to swim in the lake! The cabin is perfectly decorated and extremely clean. We definitely plan to visit again!

THE MOST PERFECT MOUNTAIN CABIN!!

I cannot say enough about how BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL and AMAZING the property and our experience was. Gwen is an spectacular host. We travel with our 2 dogs and are selective to choose the right property to keep them safe. We hit the jackpot! This by far has been our best trip. The quite mornings on the porch, access to canoe and kayaks, fishing and watching the most beautiful FIRE-FLYS in the evenings. This cabin had everything to make our stay convenient and comfortable from a well stocked kitchen, coffee, charcoal and firewood. It was the easiest packing trip we had, allowing us more time with the family. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you Gwen - we made so many memories!

Sweet and cozy cabin on the lake

Our stay at Gwen‘s cozy cabin was delightful in every way. Gwen was attentive to our every need and went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was both comfortable and enjoyable. Our car battery died in the cold weather and Gwen‘s husband Dan came immediately to our rescue so we were able to get on the road home as scheduled. Five star hospitality in all regards! Thanks, Gwen!!

Beautiful

Words cannot describe the peace and tranquillity of this property, the property pictures don’t disappoint. The yard and lake are simply perfect! Gwen is very kind and if you forgot it, she has it. Stocked kitchen, bathroom and extra blankets. The radiant flooring is irresistible for warm cozy feet and feel! The porch is perfect for a hot cup of coffee and quite/book while the dog can play around safely in the yard. We loved it !

Beautiful location.

The cabin is clean and cozy. The location is remote enough that you should plan on having some of your meals there; the kitchen is well equipped so that shouldn't be a problem. Everything has been thought of, leading to a very comfortable guest experience. The lake is small and it's a tranquil setting. We'd love to return someday.

Welcome to Gwen's Cozy Cabin! I have finally retired to our dream home in North Carolina. We built this log cabin in 2000 for our enjoyment, now we want you to enjoy what we have for years, come and stay.

Why they chose this property

We originally purchased this property to stay in while we visited the Brevard area. We fell in love with the area due to the beautiful weather and the majestic mountains. Our plans included retiring to this area, which we did!

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the log construction of the home with its unique location next to the lake in a very quite and friendly neighborhood.
