Why the Owner Chose Asheville
I have lived in the Asheville area now for 13 years. I find it to be one of the most wonderful and unique places imaginable. I wouldn't live anywhere else for anything. Something for everyone I always say! For nature lovers we have the Pisgah National Forest and the Smoky Mountains with unlimited hiking and bicycling trails, lots of waterfalls and one of the most diverse ecological areas in the world with over 100,000 species of plants and animals. Not only are the natural surroundings diverse but so are the people with their attendant cultural interests. And speaking of culture, Asheville is a haven for artisans with numerous galleries and festivals to show off their talents. If you love music, you've come to the right place. Not only do we have numerous concerts in the area all the time but we also have Friday night drumming during warmer months in Pritchard Park and Shindig on the Green in the summer, both free to the public. You will frequently hear a lone musician or a combo providing music in front of the cafes, Fine Arts Theater or Malaprops Bookstore. And speaking of downtown Asheville, it is impossible to walk down any street, anytime of day, any day of the week, any time of year and not find lots of people abuzz with activity. It is just a lively and invigorating town. And Asheville has some of the very best cafes and coffee houses you will find anywhere. Have I convinced you that I love it here? If so, or even if not, come and find out for yourself why Asheville is listed in numerous magazines and books as one of the top places to live or visit in the entire world!
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Treetop Mountain Vista is a single cabin off to itself to provide longed for privacy. No one will bother you as you enjoy the hot tub for two high up on the deck. Part of the deck is covered for dining outside, which you can still enjoy even in a peaceful rain. The hot tub is open so you can thoroughly enjoy the night sky. The queen bed is in the great room with a perfect view of Mt. Pisgah as you awaken in the morning or just taking a breather anytime of the day. Everything is provided for your experience of rustic beauty with more than just a touch of luxury. The view from nearly every window is inspiring. You are right at Mt. Pisgah and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The cabin is surrounded by trees, and you'll be watching the view over the treetops(hence the name TREETOP MOUNTAIN VISTA). Behind the cabin is more mountain to explore. But right up highway 151 and the Blue Ridge Parkway are plenty of places to hike or ride your mountain bike. It's an exceptional location! Yet not at all far from Asheville, Waynesville, The Biltmore Estate, The North Carolina Arboretum and too much more to mention here.
The closest attraction to our cabin and one of my favorites is only 4 miles away. It winds through amazing scenery all the way from Cherokee,NC into Virginia and has a variety of hiking trails.
The Biltmore House, known all over the world, dates back to the late 1800's. A trip to Asheville would not be complete without a visit.
"The Arboretum focuses on the education, economic development, research, conservation, and garden demonstration with respect to landscape, architecture, and plant sciences."
Second highest peak in Buncombe Co. Only 5 miles from the cabin to the trail head off the Blue Ridge Parkway. A moderate hike. At the top is a lookout tower and you may be able to see the cabin.
Located on hwy 276, it is an historic site: "Birthplace of forest conservation in America". It contains the first official school for forestry in America. Check their website for special events.
"The WNC Nature Center is a living museum f plant & animals native to the Appalachian Region" wildwnc.org
Encompasses the Cherokee Ancient Village, Cherokee National Museum, Education Center, Gift Store and more. Located in Cherokee,NC www.cherokeeheritage.org
The Pisgah Ranger District is dominated by Mt. Pisgah on the Blue Ridge Parkway and extends on both sides of the Parkway. The cabin is surrounded by the PNF but sits on private land.
Owner's Map of Asheville
I grew up in Northern Wisconsin, right in the middle of lush forests and an abundance of natural lakes. You might say I was a "country girl" and proud of it. In 1972 I moved to Florida to experience a different kind of life. Lots of sun, warm weather and gorgeous beaches. But still I had a dream, and that was to live in the mountains and be able to walk out on my deck and enjoy an amazing view. In 1996 I moved to Western North Carolina and have never looked back, because life in these mountains is everything I ever hoped it would be and more. Three years later I moved into my cabin and realized that my dream of having an amazing mountain view,(without even having to get out of bed)had come true. That first morning took my breath away as I opened my eyes and the first rays of sunlight hit Mt. Pisgah. Eighteen months ago I moved into a different location here in the area and opened up my dream to others. It has turned out to be one of the greatest joys of my life, to share this remarkable home. The cabin is located right outside of Asheville, NC and I still live nearby. I take a personal interest in seeing to it that everything is perfect for each new guest to arrive. Thanks, Nancy

November 1st-3rd,2009 Dear Nancy, Thank you for sharing your beautiful gem in the mountains. The fall colors are still vibrant on this part of the mountain...absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed going into Asheville for two wonderful dinners. But we most enjoyed our hikes off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect couple of days with my husband on our 5th wedding anniversary! We will certainly be back. Marie & Dan John's Island, SC

Oct.30th-Nov.1st. Nancy, Sean, Toby and I had a wonderful relaxing stay at your adorable cabin. We enjoyed the beautiful fall colors from the deck so much despite the rain. Asheville will never be the same with folks talking about Toby in his stroller! He got to enjoy the dog bakery and loved being the center of attention! We'll be back! Sean, Carol & Toby

Oct. 22-25, 2009 Nancy~ We really had a fantastic time here this week end! Thanks for making it so beautiful & welcoming for us. We enjoyed hiking nearby and eating some great food in Asheville. But mostly we enjoyed snuggling up by the wood fire and slipping into the hot tub. It was also the perfect weekend with changing leaves! So beautiful here! We will definitely be coming back! Thanks again, it was perfect! Ruth & Keith

October 15-17, 2009 Nancy, We loved staying in your cozy cottage for some much needed R&R. Next time we plan on staying longer. You've done a wonderful job creating a perfect ambiance....We're sitting on the deck for one last look at the beautiful scenery and then it's off for our trip home. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay. Pat & Steve, Honeybrook, PA (Amish Country)

Nancy, We couldn't have picked a better time to visit your Mountain. Even though it rained, the leaves were amazing. I love the fall color. We were wishing we had the motorcycle for all the fun roads. Thank You, Ed & Sue Forest Lake, Minnesota

9 October 2009 Dear Nancy, Thanks so much for letting us stay in your lovely cabin. We really enjoyed it and its many home comforts. As we have been in hotels until now we enjoyed being able to shop for groceries and cook in your well-equipped kitchen. The hot-tub was great too, especially on clear, starry nights. Sally & Nick Bristol, UK.

Dear Nancy, Thank you for sharing Tree Top Mountain Vista with us for a wonderful relaxing weekend! We had fun exploring Asheville, Hendersonville and the Biltmore House. (We really appreciated the vouchers which saved us quite a bit of money!) But we really enjoyed spending time in your cozy cottage and hot tubbing under the stars with a full moon-can't be beat. We'll be back! Jean & Bill Vrabel Fort Wayne, IN
