About this property

Quintessential Private Log Cabin with New Hot Tub

The French Broad River Log Cabin is waiting for you to spend your next vacation! This private retreat is nestled on 4 private mountain acres. It is great for a couple who wants a cozy romantic get away with their sweetheart or for a family vacation with the kids. The stone wood burning fireplace will immediately invite you sit and relax with a good book. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook up a fabulous meal. If the outdoors is what you seek, look no further than the rocking chair front porch or deck with hot tub, where you can relax and listen to the roar of the river below. No matter what the occasion, you will enjoy the rustic luxury of this special place.

Other things to note: The cabin is located a half mile up a mountain gravel road. It is not very steep but there are some old raised concrete areas. You can access the cabin with a front wheel drive car, however rear wheel drive vehicles have had a more difficult time. In winter months, we recommend a AWD or all wheel drive car, this is best to have if there is snow or ice in the area. Maintaining a constant pace up the road is best, if you stop and are not in 4WD or AWD you can spin. You will see 2 large boulders on either side of the driveway, if you like you can drive past the driveway and back your car into the driveway.

Dogs are allowed under certain conditions. We have a 2 dog maximum, and we ask that all dogs that come to the cabin are up to date on their flea and tick medication and stay off the furniture. A $50 per dog per stay fee applies.

Due the cabin being on well water, we recommend bringing bottled water to drink.

We require a 5 night stay over the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years holidays.

We are the actual owners of this property. We live in the area and will be available to assist you in any way possible during your visit.

It was perfectly peaceful and clean. A nice rustic cabin just as I imagined in. Was startling when the black walnuts fell on the roof but got used to it after a day. Overall great property and was just as relaxing as I could have hoped.

Great getaway. Only complaint is the river is said to be less than a minute walk, but there is no access from the cabin to the river. Overall, it’s was a great experience.

We had an incredible stay! Great for relaxing; also drivable to plenty to do for day-tripping. A great setting to unplug and recharge. Cozy, nicely decorated, and host was very informative up front, as well as clear directions/notes/tips throughout the cabin. There were no surprises on what to expect or what was needed to have the perfect stay. There was rain everyday, but not an issue- we enjoyed just being in the space and slowing down. Loved the birds, saw deer and rabbits, as well as a couple turkeys running around! We had our toddler who also loved the space and sights as well. Thank you for sharing your cabin- we hope to be back!

This property is wonderful. We were looking for some privacy, yet close and convenient to Asheville, and this cabin fit our needs perfectly. From the front porch, we could catch glimpses of the French Broad River, and we could hear the water moving over the rocks and ledges. The kitchen is small but effecient and adequate. Beds are very comfortable. We spent a lot of time sitting on the front porch in the rocking chairs. Hot tub appears to be fairly new, was well maintained and quite relaxing. We would recommend this property for couples looking for private space.

This is the perfect little cabin for a peaceful, secluded getaway. The French Broad River rushes just below the cabin. The hot tub is clean, well maintained and has an amazing view. The cabin is quaint but perfectly appointed and very clean with every cooking utensil needed in the kitchen. The hammock was an added, unexpected bonus! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to come back!

Weekend in the Mountains

I stayed at this cabin with my two teens while visiting family near by. The cabin was about ten minutes from family and just what we needed. It has all the amenities, hot tub and washer and dryer were a plus! It is peaceful and serene and off the beaten path, yet within a 30 min. drive to downtown Asheville or the Biltmore.

Woodsy cabin

Beautiful property with a rustic and comfy-cozy cabin that is perfect for a long weekend get-away. the driveway is a bit rugged (especially after rain) so take seriously the requirement for an AWD/4WD car.

Mountain Time

We really enjoyed our visit to this unique, rustic cabin in the wooded area of Alexander, NC near Asheville. You can hear the French Broad river rushing over rocks while sitting on the front porch. The cabin had all the amenities needed for our stay. A very relaxing setting and beautifully surrounded by nature.

Amazing Cabin!

Beautiful space! Such a cozy cabin, absolutely perfect for a few days. The property is very secluded and peaceful, but only 15 minutes from downtown AVL. Hot tub was dope. June is a wonderful human, very communicative, and gave us great recommendations. Would 100% stay here again!
