Hi, the Trailhead Lodge is a pet friendly full service lodge with on-site innkeeper support and service amenities. Our property provides a rejuvenating experience for families, friends and solo travelers alike. The Lodge is part of the Wolf Laurel community and is close to high adventure water rafting (CL III/IV), zip lines, French Broad and Nolichucky River floats and Ashevilleâs markets and meals! We have space and grace so come enjoy our views and hospitality.
We have 2 private rooms that share a common bathroom and a semi-private room that adjoins the bunk room/rec room basement. The basement bunk room has a separate bathroom.
Our innkeeper support gives you tidy services and laundry support so you can totally focus on your planned activities, rest and relaxation. Logistics on the mountain are localized and take additional time. We give you that time back or assist you with day - day prep. We assist with meals so you can leave early and come back to a ready feast from zip line adventure or hiking. We also provide tea and coffee service all day for those that want to Lounge at the Lodge.
Our innkeeper maintains a fully separate suite that adjoins the laundry, kitchen and cleaning area to maintain prep and services for your visit. You will love letting us host your visit.

Great visit!
Our family of 6 had a great time at this property. The location was beautiful and the home was spacious and fit our needs perfectly. My kids were able to ride the ski lift up and walk right to the house when they were done skiing. Doug was a great host and we would love to stay at this property again!

Family Gathering
While the occasion to visit this property was to bury a loved one; it brought the 10-ten of us from five different states together. The property was the perfect oasis for hanging out, talking, laughing, playing games and soaking in the views.
Doug was wonderful with communicating and understanding our needs, and answering questions in real time during the trip.
The house was fully furnished with everything needed; fully stocked kitchen, laundry, family gaming area, deck with views and great outdoor furniture.
I would definitely return, hopefully under better circumstances, and would highly recommend for your travel and vacation needs.

Mountain fun
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The views are amazing. The nice wood-burning fireplace in the Big Ten was so relaxing. Great place for children to play and have fun while adults relax upstairs .

Awful Thanksgiving Getaway
We arrived (3 ladies) on 11/23. We were expecting to stay for 5 nights. We left 2 days early due to several issues:
- No heat on the lower level where bedroom 3, bathroom 2, and the game room were located. It was ~55 during the day and much colder at night
- No TV due to weak WIFI signal and no cable.
- Coffee-maker that didn't work
- Alarm that went off every time a door opened 24/7(there were 4 patio doors)
- Chimes that went off on the hour and 1/2 hour
- Could not sleep on the couch due to all the racket and the loud trumpet of reveille that went off early in the morning
- There was a large load of towels in the wash machine left from the previous renters (all wet so we had to dry, and fold them)
- Pet stains in the primary bedroom that had not been cleaned up
- No way to lock up while we were out since we were not provided any keys so our valuables were not secure
We contacted the owner via text and phone on Tuesday 11/23 to alert him about the heat, TV, the lights that didn't work on the lower level. At that time he said to me that maybe we should go somewhere else and that he would give us our money back. However, he texted back that he was having someone come out on Wednesday to address the issues.
I texted the owner on Wednesday AM to tell him that the coffee maker didn't work.
The handyman showed up mid-day and he tried to fix the issues including the heat. All that he could fix were the lights since a circuit breaker on the panel in the garage had tripped. He said that what was need for the TV was a WIFI booster and batteries for the remotes. He'd talk to the owner about getting someone to fix the furnace downstairs or get us an auxiliary heater, find out how to get the coffeemaker working, and see if the owner could call the alarm company to stop all the alarms, chimes and reveille. The handyman was going to come back later that day so we took our dogs with us and left for the afternoon. No one came and that is the last we have heard from the handyman or the owner.
We have called, texted, and emailed the owner who just ignores us. We traveled many hours to meet and enjoy our time together as we only visit one or two times a year. However, because this experience was so unpleasant, we left 2 days earlier than anticipated, we each returned home.
I texted the owner advising that we were leaving Friday. We pulled sheets and towels, cleaned the Kitchen & dishes and consolidated the trash. I emailed the owner summarizing the issues.

Great experience in a beautiful place.
This was just the kind of experience my friends and I were looking for. Quite secluded with amazing views and quick access to hiking. Had an issue with a malfunctioning refrigerator and the owner was on it instantly and got it fixed. Highly recommend!

Doug Orman Àr vÀrd
Hello and Greetings! My name is Doug Orman. I own, operate and maintain the magic and majesty that is the Trail Head Lodge in the Wolf Laurel Community. I am a retired US Army Special Forces Lieutenant Colonel and with my girlfriend, Sally McCauley, we have opened our doors and 'back-yard' of the Pisgah and Cherokee National Forest to better help you and yours share the beauty of our nation in hopes that we can better understand how to protect it for the future of others and grown personal partnerships in the process. The lodge was my part of my 'life-plan' to allow me a 'reverse snow-bird' experience from the tropical summers and Hurricane instabilities that occur with a primary residence in Florida. I have many life-support hobbies that the lodge lets me explore...whether it be cooking, hiking, providing trail support and counsel, logistics planning or just spinning a yarn...it's all part of me at the lodge.
Varför vÀrden valde detta boende
2 Words, 2 times: Wolf Laurel; Appalachian Trail. The Trail Head Lodge (THL) is situated at the foot of Big Bald Moutain and directly at the TN-NC state line gap. The THL is also protected by a gated and roving security enforced community with hiking access for pick-up and drop off 24/7 from a private parking lot only available to residents of Wolf Laurel. Guests of the THL can experience a guided trip to the top of Big Bald with myself, the owner and innkeeper, via 4x4 and legal waiver access! It is a special allure of this property. We also have ski-in//ski-out access to the SKI THE WOLF resort. The property was one of the initial properties developed in the 80's and is situated in a turn that gives it complete privacy and a vista that compares with much more precariously situated homes here on the mountain. The basement of the property provides guest the privacy, rest, recreation and relaxation of their choosing but also allows families to supervise the recreation room activities. The THL embraces the sounds of music and has an upright and electric piano available for play. The THL is a gateway for a journey ...take and share your path with us!
