Sobre esta propriedade

Cozy cabin with hi-speed fiber optic. Dog friendly! 40 min to dtwn Asheville.

Mother Nature creates beautiful Winter Wonderlands here in Madison County, NC. Several snow tubing businesses and the brand new Hatley Pointe Ski Resort are just a mile up the hill from the Cuckoo's Nest. Come play in the snow and explore the surrounding area.

Summertime is for rafting, tubing, zip-lining, fishing, and mountain biking. Don't forget s'mores by the firepit! Come and enjoy all that that Madison County, the "Jewel of the Blue Ridge," has to offer. If you have any questions after you read the property description, please don't hesitate to ask.

LOCATION: The Cuckoo's Nest is a 700 square foot cabin located at 3500 feet of elevation, just 4 miles off I-26 W (Exit 3 - the Wolf Laurel Exit). It is a beautiful 40-minute drive from Asheville up I26 W through Buckner Gap. Our house is located just a mile down the hill from the entrance to Hatley Pointe Ski Resort; it is 4 miles from an entrance of the Appalachian Trail at the NC/TN border.

RATE: As listed and is not negotiable.

*********ATTENTION WINTER RENTALS (NOV 15 - MAY 01)**********
We are in a terrific location for snow tubing and skiing (less than a mile from the house)! We are at 3500 feet. It snows often and we can sometimes get a foot at a time. To rent our house YOU MUST HAVE A LARGE VEHICLE (truck or SUV with some ground clearance) WITH 4WD. Our driveway is steep, gravel, with a switchback. Experience driving in winter weather is highly recommended.

PROS (you’ll love our house if you’re looking for the following):

Seclusion: peace, quiet, serenity, and privacy.

Wifi: Remote workers, rejoice! You have fiber optic 5G here. Bring your laptop and set up in the spacious office space.

Dog Friendly: Bring your fur babies with you! Plenty of sniffing for them to do here. Note: there is not a fenced yard, but we do have a tie-out by the firepit.

Wildlife: It is pretty common to see deer, rabbits, gophers, chipmunks, turkeys, owls, and hawks.

Great outdoor space: Gas grill; Charcoal grill + smoker, Two hammocks for relaxing; seating area by the large firepit; amazing stargazing (zero light pollution); birdwatching; dogs welcome!

Nearby activities: Trout fishing (right down the street along the hatchery supported creek); Appalachian Trail (Sam’s Gap access is 4 miles away); snow tubing (1/4 mile from the house); whitewater rafting; skiing (Hatley Pointe Ski Resort); snow tubing; panning for gemstones; Mt. Mitchell; Nolichucky River tubing; Rocky Fork State Park; a plethora of delicious restaurants and breweries in the surrounding areas. Try either Wolf Provisions (they have basic grocery necessities, too) or Little Creek Cafe for breakfast or lunch close to home.

Fresh, ice-cold, spring water straight out of the tap (from the spring on the property.)

Lots of books, board games & card games, & JBL Bluetooth speaker waiting for your playlist.

CONS (you should definitely NOT rent our house if the following is important to you):

Video games. There is no gaming system of any kind.

Uber / Lyft: It is difficult to get service to this area.

We do not have get local cable TV channels. We have a 36” Smart TV with built in streaming services/apps.

We do not have a dishwasher.

We do not have a bathtub (only a shower).

NO cats or ferrets allowed.

NO PARTIES allowed (due to small septic system).

A vehicle with ground clearance is recommended for our steep gravel driveway - think SUV / Crossover/ Truck. (Yes, that means you WILL bottom out your Corvette). Also, YOU MUST HAVE A 4WD VEHICLE TO STAY HERE IN THE WINTER.

Well.....if you are still reading, great! Our house is your house!

We are constantly improving the Cuckoo's Nest with your comfort in mind. Here are the latest improvements:

New in 2023: Adjustable work desk (standing/sitting) with LED " light; Fiber Optic high-speed WiFi; 10" cooling comfort gel memory mattress for the daybed.

New in 2023: Stainless steel 5-burner convection oven with air fryer features; stainless steel refrigerator with ice-maker; stainless steel overhead stove vent with light; also, re-graded driveway and added gravel

New in 2021: Dual Mini-split system in the living and bedroom for 100% climate control; new hot water heater; new shower head; interior paint; 8" queen sized Tempur-Pedic mattress.

New in 2020: Roof; microwave & toaster oven; washer & dryer.

The kitchen is fully stocked with all you may need to cook with; all linens (+ extra quilts for winter!) are provided.

Here are more details:
There is a dining table and chairs inside for cold winter nights, but in all likelihood, you will enjoy all your meals at the dining table on the large screened-in porch. The porch has festive lights and a hammock during the summer. It is a great spot to listen to the sound of the waters of Puncheon Fork Creek across the road, or for bird watching.

There is a queen-size captain's bed (dresser drawers underneath) in the bedroom with 4 pillows, a comfy mattress, and extra quilts for chilly evenings.

The bathroom has plenty of natural light (skylight), towels, and a hairdryer. Please note that while we do have a shower with a glass door, we DO NOT have a bathtub. If you are a big person (over 6') you are going to find the shower to be a bit small.

In the living room, we have a 36" flat-screen Smart TV (you can choose from a variety of local channels + movie channels or log into your Netflix or Prime accounts, etc.), high-speed Wi-Fi, and landline from which you can make local calls. We also have loads of area maps, flyers, magazines, etc about the area. If you like to play games, we have Trivial Pursuit, checkers, chess, Yahtzee, Uno, dominoes, and Texas Hold Em poker, and more -- have fun!!! If you like to read, there is sure to be a novel on the shelf that strikes your fancy. There are lots of movies (75+ DVDs) to watch, too.

In the living room, there is a day bed (twin mattress) with a pull-out trundle underneath (another twin mattress). The trundle pops up and is on a rolling frame so you can put it wherever you want or make up the two twins together to form a queen.
We have a laundry closet with a washer and dryer that you are welcome to use -- because kids + dogs = muddy : ).

We are dog-friendly, too! There is a tie-out next to the firepit if your pooch tends to wander. Your dog will enjoy sniffing around the backyard area. Please note: We have 3 acres and it is NOT fenced. Our neighbors have a variety of livestock and dogs….keep your dog with you at all times.

We have a large fire pit in the backyard (and a wood stove inside for the winter). You can bring your own firewood to roast marshmallows on your campfire, or you can have firewood delivered for $30/day. ***Please let us know when you make your reservation so we can order the firewood delivery in advance*** The stars and constellations that you can see on a clear night are just breathtaking.

Two final notes that are important....
Our cabin is located in a "dry" section of Madison County. That means if you want to purchase any beer, wine, or liquor for your vacation, you need to do so in Asheville, Weaverville, or Mars Hill. Once you pass Exit 11, there is no alcohol for sale.

Finally, if you are considering a winter getaway to ski or snow tube, the magical winter wonderland that you will find at the cabin will not disappoint you. HOWEVER, you MUST have a 4WD vehicle!!! Our driveway is steep and is a gravel drive. It is not uncommon to get more than a foot of snow and have it last for a week or more. Icy conditions make navigating the drive extremely challenging (but once you get down to the road, it is plowed regularly!). Also, please be aware that there are frequent power outages in the winter. Most only last a few hours and aren't a big deal - as long as you have firewood!

If you have any further questions about our property, please don't hesitate to ask. We're happy to make local recommendations.

Perfect little spot

We enjoyed our short stay at the Cuckoos Nest! It was perfect for a weekend trip to the mountains and it was conveniently located near Wolf Ridge Ski Resort and snow tubing! Also, there was a cute little store/gift shop/coffee place right around the corner called Wolf Provisions! We will definitely be back! The best part was that our doggies got to enjoy the visit with us!

Relaxing getaway with easy access to Asheville

My husband and I traveled down from Maryland with our dog for a quick getaway. The cabin was clean and tucked away in a peaceful country area. We spent our mornings hiking on various trails in the area and went into Asheville for some awesome food in the evenings. The checkin/checkout process was super easy. We highly recommend this rental! We cannot wait to book our next stay.

Great location, pet-friendly

Cute house, great secluded location. Ten minutes away from Sam’s Gap AT trail access. It’s easier to find in daylight, so arrive during the day if you can. House is pet-friendly, so if allergies are an issue, it might be best to bring your own sheets (sheets are washed by the previous renter).

A quieter July 4th holiday.

The Coo-Coo Nest was exactly as described. The bed is very comfortable after a great day of hiking. We spent every morning and evening we were there in the screened in porch. I ended up naming the male and female hummingbirds, who visited the feeders every morning and evening, Romeo and Juliet. :-) Then spending time around the fire pit roasting marshmallows and making s’mores was fun while we listened to the stream nearby. Our dog, Mia had a much more relaxed holiday this year and we absolutely loved your place and the town. We definitely plan to come back!

Cuckoo for Cuckoo's Nest

We found Cuckoo's Nest perched at the top of a long and winding drive, nestled on a mountain surrounded by beautiful trees showing off their fall colors. What a lovely, quaint cabin that had everything we could possibly need or want for an anniversary get-away. LOVED this place and hated to leave. This is one Cuckoo's Nest you would be crazy not to visit.

Cute getaway

My boyfriend, lab, and I loved staying at the cuckoo’s nest. The screened porch is especially nice and the backyard is large. The place is extremely pet friendly, which was super nice. We used the kitchen a lot and it has everything you need if you plan to cook. It’s 30 minutes from Asheville, so it’s easy to go into town and get good food or do some shopping, but also super nice to stay up in the mountains and not be right in the middle of everything.

We loved the Cuckoo’s Nest!

The place is adorable. The property was lovely even though it rained most of the time we were there. We enjoyed the covered patio and just relaxing to the rain drops. Our dog, Dobby, really enjoyed being included and he loved all the new smells. We went into Asheville one evening and he even got his own doggy dinner! The only complaints we had were the very large black ants in the house and the bed in the main bedroom was uncomfortable but we made do. Overall, I would highly recommend staying here especially if you have a fur baby with you. It’s obvious the owners have put a lot of love into the place

Gem in the hills!

Really enjoyed staying here! Very clean and owners have thought of everything one could need or want. Kitchen was well equipped. Nice fire pit outside. Good grill on a little deck. Birds at feeders were fun to watch! Back yard and screened in patio was ideal for my little dog. The sound of the creek below is very soothing. Only drawback was its location is a bit away from everything! Asheville is about 24 miles away. But that could be good too! Would be very hard to locate after dark! Very close to Appalachian Trail!

Wish We Were Still There!

The Cuckoo's Nest has an energy indicative of being loved by many, plenty of comfy linens, and quality kitchen tools that set this rental apart from its competitors. The nature viewing opportunities from the screened-in porch are superb at all hours, and the spacious library sunroom can accommodate an additional sleeping bag, a couple yoga mats for your meditation practice, or raucous late-night dancing on the plush rug. Even if the ample local sites don't lure your party outside its walls, this rental will steal your heart like no other, and we definitely recommend it for small gatherings of loved ones. If we could change anything about this property, we would move it slightly futher away from the busy road and overtly political neighbors, though the tree coverage provides enough good vibes and shelter to make us want to rebook regardless. What a lovely mountain gem!!

Couldn't get comfortable

Like the location, seclusion, outside firepit, inside fireplace, and temperpedic matress in bedroom. But daybed in livingroom is only seating in livingroom. Not comfortable to sit and read. All other chairs are either kitchen chairs or patio furniture on screened in porch. No comfy curl-up chair(s) for long stretches in the cabin. A better choice for people who want to "do the area" and not spend too much time in the cabin. Won't return.

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Heather Coggins

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
We live in Charleston, SC. Jimmy is a musician and works for the State Department. Heather is a high school English teacher. We have two boys, ages 18 and 22. We all love to spend time in the Asheville area hiking and fishing; it just made sense to buy a vacation home in the mountains. Unfortunately, life gets in the way of us enjoying the Cuckoo's Nest as much as we would like, so we decided to share it with you when we can't use it ourselves.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

We chose this property because of the secluded location, the elevation, and the beauty of the area. Before we even got to the property, the drive up I-26 West through Buckner Gap had us 50% sold before we even arrived! Coming up from Folly Beach -- where it is meltingly hot in the summer -- to the respite of the Cuckoo's Nest is like arriving on a different planet. If only we could figure out how to bottle that clean, cool, crisp smell of rain and hay.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

We love sitting on the screened-in porch and watching the birds, listening to the river across the road, enjoying the cool mountain air. There are so many water activities to do in the summer (fishing is our #1, but tubing, rafting, canoeing are all a blast), it is hard to decide how to spend the long summer days. When we come home, we grill out and watch the lightning bugs and then the constellations.

The changing leaves in the fall are gorgeous, and the winter wonderland created by the snow is magical. Nothing compares to a good glass of wine by the wood-burning stove and warm flannel sheets in the winter. We've gotten snowed in and had to call our bosses in Charleston, "Um, sorry, can't make it in to work on Monday" : )

We love our little cabin and you will, too!!

Heather and Jimmy
