About this property
The Abernathy NC
Off the beaten path is the Abernathy. The home was built in the 1900's and has recently been updated but still keeping some of the original charm. After a day of Gem mining, Geocaching, or hiking come back to relax and listen to the birds sing. The home is nestled within 25 acres with abundant wildlife. Eat out or cook in with a kitchen that's fully equipped. We'll provide some essentials such as coffee, sugar, creamer, and spices for cooking. Easy access from parking lot and has only 3 stairs leading from main rooms to bedrooms.

All wheel drive and 4-wheel drive is helpful in the winter months. The house is on a private road that we maintain. We have one security camera that stays on. It is located outside the front door pointing towards the parking area. I’m

About the host
Hosted by Teresa Cox
I love living in the mountains. Sitting on the porch, listening to the birds is one of my favorite past times. I raise chickens, quail and rabbits. My faith and church are very important to me and I enjoy our programs and singing with the praise team. Some of my hobbies are gardening, crocheting, crafts, sewing, cooking, preserving and camping. I have three wonderful grandchildren that I love to visit and spend time with. My goal is to share our home in the mountains so you can experience nature and the beautiful scenery it offers. Western North Carolina is a wonderful place to visit for its natural beauty
Why they chose this property
If you want to enjoy peace and quiet, then this is the property for you. Sit and enjoy a beverage while listening to the birds sings. And at night there are plenty of stars to watch. It's a comfortable place to stay for any amount of time.
