About this property

Farside Cabin Secluded mountain top getaway with mountain views & rustic charm

Far from the madding crowds, look no further for a secluded mountain top getaway with breath taking views on the Eastern Continental Divide. Farside Cabin offers mid century rustic charm with unique modern amenities such as newly installed high speed fiber optic internet at 380 Mbps providing an ultimate getaway for couples and families alike.
Just 4 miles from the town of Black Mountain and 25 minutes from Asheville, Farside Cabin is located off the main thoroughfare of highway 9 South to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock and numerous popular mountain trails, watering holes and water falls.
It is also a popular route for motorcyclists, bicyclists and only a 45 minute drive to some ski slopes in winter. Nearby are a YMCA with indoor pool, a racquet club with Pickle ball courts, shops and restaurants in Black Mountain only a few miles away.
Post note: Guests who may have never driven on mountain roads may find the last mile, a gradual winding incline and well maintained gravel drive to the cabin challenging. 4 wheel drive is only necessary during snow storms and prolonged rain storms such as hurricanes.

About the host

Hosted by Julia Brooke

Host profile image
Having lived all over the world in the diplomatic corps I have learned something about hosting guests. Ten years ago I decided to share my cabin as a STR and have enjoyed being a super host ever since. As a writer, artist and former retail owner of a gardening supply outlet, I take my guests needs seriously and try to be responsive and available to any situation that may crop up. It is very important to me that my guests have a pleasurable stay at my cabin and I will do as much as I can to ensure it.

Why they chose this property

I took up residence in this small mountain community 25 years ago and have watched it grow over the years. My neighbors are a tight knit community that work together to take care of our road year around with annual work days and pot luck meetings. They have been very kind about my sharing my cabin with guests for which I am most fortunate.

What makes this property unique

Some years ago I had a large addition added to my cabin which goes from rustic log cabin to modern bedroom bath with a deck overlooking the mountain view in between.
The couple I bought the cabin from built the cabin in the 70's and collected stones from all over the world which are in the fireplace surround which reminded them of their friends and travels.
