Charming, magical, romantic, and comfortable are all words used to describe the cabin. We take extreme care to preserve the historic charm of the cabin, while making it a comfortable place to truly relax and enjoy.

SECONDARY BEDROOM- full size bed with soft cotton bedding, an armoire for clothing, and a reading chair.

DINING ROOM- fits 4 comfortably, but there will be additional chairs for more people if needed. Lined with beautiful windows to see all the natural surroundings.

LIVING ROOM- has a large comfortable couch, a wood burning stove that heats the cabin up quickly, a reading chair, and a TV with streaming options.

BATHROOM- full bathroom with shower. Toiletries and essentials provided.

KITCHEN- small, but functional fully stocked kitchen with all the essentials. Cabinets are wormy chestnut and authentic to the cabin. Kerosene monitor heater that works very efficiently. Coffee provided.

OUTDOORS- the front porch is equipped with plenty of seating to sit for hours and enjoy the view. Perfect both rain or shine. There is also a grill and picnic area on the side of the cabin perfect for hosting alfresco meals.

We hope you enjoy the space and the property as much as we do. It's a very special place with a lot of history and we're excited to share it with you!

*The cabin sits approximately 100 yards from a renovated barn (also available for rent). Perfect for larger parties who wish to rent both spaces, but far enough away to still be private and secluded.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:

Pets (well-behaved dogs only) are allowed. Please add your pet to the reservation. The pet fee is $50.

The cabin is situated in a quintessential "holler", which is a valley a ways back off the main road. It is very private, which is a huge draw for folks staying there.

The driveway is a long gravel/dirt driveway that has a small incline at the beginning before flattening out. 4WD or AWD vehicles are not required in normal conditions, but do keep in mind the possibility of snow and ice in the winter and check the forecast before your stay. Plan your vehicle accordingly. There may be mud, bumps, and rivets in the driveway that happen after harsh weather. I do my best to keep it maintained, but the mountain weather can be rough on driveway conditions. Please be aware that Ashe County is more rural than many other mountain areas, so road and driveway conditions can be rougher than you’re used to. Low-to-the-ground vehicles, such as sedans, are not the most comfortable in this area.

Please note the driveway is narrow and passing is only possible in a few spots. You don't often run into oncoming vehicles, but be mindful just in case you encounter an oncoming vehicle. This is especially important given the other rental on the property.

Commercial use / private events:

Commercial use (retreats, workshops, photoshoots) requires disclosure and separate venue agreements.

Groups planning organized activities should contact me directly before booking.
