Why the Owner Chose Brevard
Our cabin, named Mountain Song, sits atop a sunny South-facing ridge surrounded by high peaks. Located in the Round Mountain area of Transylvania County, North Carolina, it commands a view of the peaks of North Carolina's Gorges State Park and South Carolina's Jocassee Gorges wilderness preserve. It is within easy driving distance of Pisgah National Forest and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The area offers some of the best hiking in the eastern United States, and also access to other outdoor activities such as visiting waterfalls and river rafting. The area is also a major center for pottery and other crafts. The Brevard Music Festival, about a half hour's drive away, offers world-class musical events all summer.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Mountain Song cabin is located in a part of Transylvania County that is relatively undiscovered, very close to the eastern entrance to Gorges State Park. We have easy access to Pisgah National Forest and all its trails, too. Transylvania County is known for its waterfalls, which number in the hundreds. Several of them, especially those in Dupont State Forest--also a short drive away - were used as locations for famous movies. When we aren't hiking, we often go into downtown Brevard, which has wonderful shops and restaurants. The cabin is only about an hour's drive down US Highway 178 to one of the few working grist mills in upstate South Carolina - Hagood Mill. At this historic site there are regular shows of authentic mountain crafts, performances of folk and bluegrass music and you can see grits and corn meal being ground in the old fashioned way. Even if you don't set foot off the property, just being at the cabin is so relaxing. The view from the deck is superb, and when we are not hiking or taking part is one of the activities in the Brevard area, such as the Brevard Music Festival concerts, we enjoy simply sitting on the deck with a good book and a glass of wine. We also enjoy collecting handmade pottery, which can be found at several studios and galleries in the Brevard area.
