About this property

Rustic Cabin, Appalachian Elegance, Rural But Close

As of May 23, 2020, my cabin is available for rent. I will follow CDC guidelines on cleaning, using an EPA-approved disinfectant for COVID-19 between customers. Thank you, George Stanley.

Appalachia at its best. A mountain cabin re-created within the basement (first floor, ground level) of my home for your pleasure. Private entrance(s), covered deck/patio, open deck, great view, very private setting.

The location has an East-West orientation, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Great place to sit, relax, and enjoy your favorite beverage.

The cabin is fully self contained. It has its own kitchen, bath with shower (no tub), and a small living/dining area. One bedroom with a king size bed.

Centrally located between I-40 and I-26, on Busbee Mountain, the property borders the Biltmore Estate and blends in with the Blue Ridge Parkway at an elevation of 3,346 feet. To get a real glimpse of the property, go to https://youtu.be/gd66YZ9MEsE

Well behaved pets are more than welcome!

We were very happy with our stay at George's cabin. He was a welcoming host who was always available if we needed him but never intrusive. The cabin is located high on a ridge with beautiful views in both directions, and the highlight was sitting on the porch and enjoying the view of Mt Mitchell in the distance. The road up the ridge is steep and narrow, but it is fully paved, and we had no trouble navigating it in a smaller car. We look forward to making our next visit!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The space is well thought out, decorated in a way that provides that cabin feel to it. Clean & comfortable. Our host George was very friendly, yet allowed us space. Scenery is stunning! You'll have views both directions including the Biltmore grounds. Although it's on top of a mountain, it's less than 20 mins to town. We even got to see some bears. Highly recommend.

This cozy cabin was perfect for our Asheville weekend getaway! Close to everything we had planned, yet tucked away enough to feel completely secluded. Even cuter in person and spotless! We loved our stay.

Wonderful stay with great views and close proximity to the city! This is my second stay at George’s property and it’s such a nice place and a fantastic value. It’s quiet and secluded but you’ll be in the city within 15 minutes. My dog and I both enjoyed our stay and we’ll be back!

As of today, Jan 5, 2026, new bedding has been delivered. I appreciate this guest letting me know the bed was only "good enough". I want my guest to have an experience worthy of the visit and be completely satisfied.

Such a wonderful, inviting and quaint cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The mountain views are stunning - we even got to enjoy a little dusting of snow. And then there’s George- he is such a welcoming and warm host. We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to visit again. Dale & Debbie

If you like birds, nature and beautiful scenery, this is the place for you. This cabin is quaint and rustic, the perfect beginning and ending to every day. It has everything you’ll need for your stay. The bed was great, a great big king that was just the right softness/firmness for us. And the sheets were soft, not like those itchy ones in motels. The outside deck has lots of seating to just relax and enjoy the solitude. Mr. George Stanley is friendly and seems to enjoy the company of his guests. And he loves nature, a plus in my book. We went to this area to visit the Biltmore, which is only about a 20 minute drive and one of the areas biggest attractions. You don’t want to miss it. And that drive up the mountain to the cabin is bound to get your adrenaline pumping. Go there. You’ll thank me, and George, later.
