About this property
Rustic Refuge- Cabin with Mountain Views see also VRBO #3942030 on Mount Carmel
Welcome to Mount Carmel Farm and the Rustic Refuge, one of two cabins on the farm. Relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while surveying views of White Oak Mountain and Saluda Ridge in the Blue Ridge Mountain foothills. The ‘Rustic Refuge’ Log Cabin is a cozy place to enjoy breakfast before heading to Main Street for antique shopping or Amish foods and furniture exploring. Have breakfast at Southern Manners, lunch at Hare and Hound, dinner at Soulisa’s and finish up with a glass of wine and live music at Overmountain Winery, Mountain Brook Winery or The Red Horse Inn. Dog friendly cabin with fully fenced backyard only thirteen scenic miles from Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC).
Or, take a hike—short or long—to enjoy Green River Gorge, Blue Wall Preserve, Campbell Covered Bridge or Pearson Falls and whip up your own cuisine at the cabin. Ingles has a plentiful grocery selection and O’Darbys staff can provide informed guidance on the spirits—between the two you are sure to find everything you need.
Or just soak up some slow-down time, watch the sheep meander in the pasture, read a good book, waft the mountain air, listen to the birds or stargaze the foothills big sky.
You will find the kitchen is well equipped with all the essentials and many of the nice to have extras—such as blender, griddle, wok, and more.
There are many other coffee and dining options, the favorites include Southside Smokehouse, Sidestreet Pizza, Brooks Tavern, Trade Street Creamery, Buck n Brew, Openroad Coffee House, Katie D’s NY Bagels, Caro Mi’s, Stone Soup, Harvest House and more.
See VRBO 3942030 for Restoration Station, an additional option on the Mount Carmel Farm. May add second cabin (2 bedrooms, 2 baths) for larger groups.
Flexible, ample parking with option for horse trailer or camper.

About the host
Hosted by Larry and Kim Phillips
We are from South Carolina and have loved all that our home state offers from the beaches to the mountains. We are thoroughly blessed to live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Upstate. We are new to Hobby Farming and have begun sheep farming in the past year. Our small farm is home to Black Belly Barbados Sheep as well as two very domesticated German Shortharied Pointer pups. We have a large family who also are nature enthusiasts.
Why they chose this property
Landrum is a great little town still charming in all the ways we remember small town USA. Landrum's slower pace and friendly welcoming feel brought us joy from the first day. Landrum's proximity to so many wonderful surrounding areas, made it the perfect fit to frequent Hendersonville, Asheville, Greenville and all the benefits, sites and scenes they offer.
What makes this property unique
Rustic Refuge is unique in that it offers privacy from traffic and yet still close to very close to town. Also, although the Rustic Refuge is very easy to get to and no significant grades to access it, in comparison the mountain views are spectacular.
