About this property

Relaxation Station on Grassy Mountain - Open April though October

Nestled off a private loop on Grassy Mountain near Little Switzerland, a rental cabin awaits you. 'R' Place is a family-owned 3-bedroom cabin named for the Matriarch (Ruby) who envisioned a place of Relaxation, Rest, Rejuvenation, and Refreshing activities. The double-decked structure offers a view of Mt. Mitchell and sometimes a bear and her cubs. It is the perfect place to enjoy a family dinner and a movie or to plan the next day's adventure. Relax in the large Jacuzzi tub and refresh yourself with a good night's sleep in one of the Sleep Number beds.

The cabin is unique with the wood for the interior taken through the whole process by builder/owner Dan. Decorated with a mix of antiques and comfortable new furniture 'R' Place lends itself to be your vacation haven.

Great communication and very cozy/clean spot. As stated in descriptions, the last bit of mountain gravel road is somewhat of a challenge (not too intimidating) but boy is it worth it for the view. Lots of space. Would stay here again

Relaxation Station is an accurate name for this place

Wonderful stay, with plenty of room for a good sized family. Tucked in the woods gives you a real sense of your surroundings. Other than constant planes flown over head ( flying lessons I believe from local airstrip), peace and tranquility

From our initial booking, communicating with Lois was a delight. We were already excited to getaway as a little family but she sweetened the deal with her kindness. She even gave us ideas of things to do locally with our kids ages 4-10! Our family loved the cabin -- it was literally a little piece of paradise. The views were spectacular and we were able to disconnect and truly enjoy time together. If you're looking for a place to getaway, look no further!

The ride up to the cabin was intimidating (especially the first time!) but totally worth it! The view was beyond our expectations. Lois and Dan made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay memorable. Movies, books, games, places to snuggle and more. Loved it!!

Beautiful property, just as described. Well equipped house with everything you could need. Plenty of books, movies, board games, etc., and Pool Table and Foosball in basement to entertain if you need it. Or just take in the spectacular views from the back decks. Lois communicated very well, and everything was great!!

Beautiful Place for a getaway

While we used this rental functionally - to house a disc golf team during a competition - the location and ambience make for an unbelievable stay. It is beautiful, relaxing, and met our every need including cost effectiveness. Highly recommended for whatever your vacation might require.

My family really enjoyed our 4 day weekend at Relaxation Station! We could not get WIFI at this time, because of the damage from hurricane Helene. You don't need WIFI with this spectacular view. We had booked for 8 people, but only 4 got to go, so we had space galore. Everything was expected, with plenty of everything you would need. Would love to go again for longer.

About the host

Hosted by Lois Carter

Host profile image
This house is owned by Dan and sister Lois. We fell in love with Little Switzerland while traveling the Blue Ridge Parkway. We bought the property 20 years ago and finished this house in 2010. We harvested trees from the site and the family farm in West Virginia to make flooring and poplar paneling and cabinets. Both of us are retired teachers and enjoy our time in the mountains with our families.
