Keywords: Cabin
Find the peace of the wilderness in your own private sanctuary. You will drive one mile through the Pisgah National Forest before coming to this newly remodeled cabin nestled on 35 undeveloped acres. The 4,200 foot elevation means cool nights for comfortable sleeping where the only sounds you will hear are birdsongs and the creek and the only lights you will see are the fireflies.
If you are looking for a true retreat for your family or a romantic renewal, you can come here to share time alone together. Children love to float on the private pond and young and old will enjoy the tranquil setting. The owner takes special pride in the flowers and vegetable garden. For an authentic family vacation, sit around a bonfire, catch a trout in the pond or help out in the garden and enjoy organic produce. There is endless hiking in the forest, whitewater rafting and fly fishing in local trout streams. The nearby town of Asheville offers arts, music, theater entertainment and many unique shops and restaurants.
