About this property

DuPont Forest Cabin--Close to Trails and Waterfalls!

The Setting:
Rustic log cabin in the heart of DuPont State Forest. Half a mile to Lake Imaging parking or a mile to Hooker Falls parking for access to trails. Truly stunning waterfalls are a short hike from this location. (Triple Falls, High Falls, Hooker Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Grassy Creek Falls are all nearby.) Great mountain biking here whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider.

The Space:
Two bedrooms on the main level, each with a queen-sized bed. Open living/dining/kitchen with vaulted ceiling. Kitchen with full-size stove/oven, and refrigerator and sufficient dishes/cookware. Initial supply of paper goods provided.
Dining table seats six. One bathroom on the main. A third bedroom upstairs with two twin-sized beds. Gas log fireplace in living room operable October-March. Covered porch off main level with rocking chairs. Lower covered deck with double hammock, room to rinse and store bikes. If you want to explore DuPont or Pisgah Forest, this is the location for you!

Distances/Access:
About 20 minutes to Downtown Brevard and 30 minutes to Downtown Hendersonville. Parking space is a level, gravel driveway in front of the cabin with room for two vehicles. The road to the cabin is a short, steep-ish gravel hill. In the winter it could be challenging for cars without AWD or 4-wheel drive.

TECH:
Cell phone service is spotty. There is WIFI and you can utilize Wi-Fi calling. Internet is fiber (as of Dec 2022) and averages around 100 Mbps. There are no TV channels or cable rather the TV is for streaming your pre-paid subscriptions such as Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, etc.

There are cabins to the left and right of this property, but they are not used as vacation rentals and are only occasionally occupied by the owners.

Food nearby:
Ice cream/craft beer at the “DuPont Kanteen” half a mile away. Food truck (burgers) about 2 miles away. Cedar Mountain Café approximately 12 minutes from the cabin.

Near DuPont and delightful.

For our adventures that included time cycling and mountain biking around and within the DuPont State Recreational Forest - as well as time spent in both Hendersonville and Brevard - this location was perfect. Specific to the property; it was comfortable and it’s rustic charm was perfect for our family. The property was well-appointed and clean. We would absolutely stay here again.

Comfy & Cozy

Our stay was wonderful! The cabin was the perfect size for my small group. Enjoyed morning coffee on the deck and family fun times around the table and firepit. Lesley was extremely responsive whenever I reached out. We would definitely stay here again. 100%. Only negative comment would be that the driveway is a bit rough when entering but overall, so very happy with our stay.

We loved this cabin!

Everything was so cute and well labeled. Everything was clean and organized. It’s even cuter than the pictures! We were escaping the Charlotte heat, and this was the perfect place to do that. We LIVED on the back porch. Go hiking, come back on the porch. Go to dinner, immediately back to the porch. Morning coffee with the sunrise…on the back porch. Just lovely.

Family get away to the mountains

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. It was a good size for the teens to have their own space while we relaxed on the first floor. We loved that it was a 3 minute drive to the water falls and other short drives to get to town or places to eat. Home was very clean with plenty of supplies.

Comfortably Quiet

Perfect spot for our quick getaway. Close to hiking this cabin offered everything we needed to unwind from life. Four wheel drive may make it easier to navigate the driveway to the cabin, but we were able to manage in our SUV. Highly recommend staying here.

The Neff’s from Florida

This is a very nice cabin in the Woods a short distance from the main road and the beautiful towns of Brevard and Hendersonville North Carolina. We really enjoyed many nearby waterfalls especially this time of year with the colorful fall foliage.

Nice Stay

My wife and I enjoyed our visit to this cabin. It was conveniently located nears parks and trails. The cabin was as described in the listing and the property manager was very good at getting us checked in and making sure that everything was satisfactory. Beds were comfortable and the furnishings worked well. The only negative about the location was that it was much closer to the highway than we expected and the road noise made the back patio deck less enjoyable than we hoped. Overall, it was a nice place that I would recommend to others.

Great Get Away

The home was wonderfully furnished, comfortable and clean. We enjoyed our stay very much. It wasn't just the location we enjoyed it was the great thought providing us with the comforts of home. Games, books, internet. This wasn't just a rental it was a warm home we were able to share for too short a time. Thanks so much.

Everything was absolutely perfect about this cabin! So clean and organized. Beds were very comfortable after a day of hiking. It was very cozy and the perfect spot for a short getaway. Lesley was super helpful in answering questions about local restaurants, grocery stores, and hiking locations. If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely stay here again!!

Had a blast with my family

We loved staying here- stayed 3 nights in mid-January. It snowed on our first night in, which was magical for our very southern children. The loft was very cute and the kids liked sleeping there. The cabin does not have a dishwasher so I recommend bringing disposable plates and utensils. The nearest grocery store was about 20 minutes away which we expected- this cabin is pretty remote but very close to hiking and waterfalls! :) I also recommend a vehicle with 4WD because the road to the cabin is very steep and bumpy, especially with snow! The host was accessible and responded quickly. They had games available for nights in as well. Recommended excursions: Corky's Dawg House in Brevard and Moonshine Mountain (snow tubing) in Hendersonville. We spent a day in Asheville as well and had fun walking around downtown and visiting the science museum. Ate lunch at Hi-Wire Brewing (games for kids, a flight, and several food vendors). We tried to drive some of the Blue Ridge Parkway but it was unfortunately closed in segments due to the weather. Recommendations for the host: Look into the main TV- it had trouble staying connected to the internet for streaming (no cable) although there is so much to do outside we weren't worried about it too much. The internet worked great on our phones and the upstairs TV, though! It was a great trip and we were happy with the whole experience. Would visit again.

Perfect Spot for DuPont

This is a great, comfortable, clean, and well appointed house. We loved the closeness to all DuPont has to offer! We had a great time hanging out after days of biking DuPont relaxing in the airy living room and enjoying fresh air on the wonderful back deck. There was a little road noise from the back deck but didn’t really bother us. We would be sure to stay here again when we want to come back to the area!

Wonderful Experience

We absolutely loved this cabin in the woods. It had everything we could possibly want or need for our stay, and more. It was clean, cozy, and very comfortable. Lesley has included so many extras (like coffee to start us off since we brought the wrong kind, basic spices, games, extra towels...). It's location was central to all the things we wanted to do and places we wanted to visit. My husband wishes this cabin could be everywhere we want to vacation. We would definitely choose to stay here again when visiting the area.

Breath of fresh air

Being from Florida, it was a extremely enjoyable experience to trek the mountain trails and see the waterfalls which were just mere minutes away. Ice cream right up the road and a restaurant 11 minutes away, food was good. The cabin itself was everything you'd expect a cabin in the woods to be. Only thing I'd recommend is if you don't want to drive for food hit the Walmart before you go to the cabin. All you need is food because everything else you need to go cook is already there which was excellent.
