About this property

Amazing Whimsical Mtn Cabin! Pet Friendly, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Winery, Skiing

Luxurious & cozy cabin full of whimsical artistic touches & lots of charming outdoor spaces nestled in rhododendrons, with a gorgeous outdoor stone fireplace and new hot tub! To make it even more amazing, it is also located in a resort community (Linville Land Harbor) with dog parks, hiking trails, a lake with a sandy beach and provided kayaks/paddleboats, river for fishing stocked trout, golf course, pool, pickleball courts, tennis courts, arcade and parks for children!

The cabin has just been fully renovated and is stocked with all new, comfortable and beautiful furnishings. In every room and throughout the outdoor spaces, you will see thoughtful touches curated to enhance your experience; fluffy robes for when you get out of the hot tub, high quality cookware, comfy chairs on the back deck to watch birds and enjoy your morning coffee, high quality linens/furniture, cozy ambient lighting everywhere, handmade art, and the list goes on.

There is even a Mac computer with great internet if you need to get some work done while staying.

Need toys, games, art supplies, costumes and books for the children to entertain themselves while you relax? We have you covered! There is a closet full of things for children. We also have 2 nice bicycles at the cabin for you to use for exploring the resort!

Additionally, this cabin is nestled in the PERFECT NC mountain location - quick access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, close to: quintessential mountain towns like Blowing Rock, Boone and Banner Elk, ski slopes, countless fun day trips to adventures such as amazing caverns. wineries, the breathtaking Linville Falls and Linville Gorge, Wiseman’s View, Grandfather Mountain, a mile high swinging bridge, gem mining, antique shopping, and the list goes on and on. There is so much beauty and wonder to experience in these magical mountains - come see for yourself!

Something else we love about this cabin/area is that it's an easy trip to explore Asheville (10 million visitors per year!) and the Biltmore House. So you can have all of the amazing offerings of this area plus be in Asheville in a little over an hour, if you want to expand your adventures.

Please don't be concerned over this being a new listing - you are in good hands! Last year my son and I sold a property outside Asheville that we successfully rented out on this platform and self-managed for 7 years, with over 200 5-star reviews! I sold that property and bought this one after very carefully considering all of the areas and options in these beautiful mountains. I fell in love with this area and over the past 8 months I have lovingly renovated this cabin and worked hard to provide here all the touches guests liked most at my previous property. When looking for a new property, I felt that the combination of an adorable mountain cabin in the middle of fantastic mountain adventure options, that also offered all of the amenities of a resort community, was optimal for providing guests (and me/my son) with a perfect mountain getaway experience. I think you will feel the same once you stay here!

Cute cabin with a magical feeling

The cabin was as pictured. Check in was easy. The hot tub was ready when we got there. We enjoyed finding all the hidden fairy and mushroom touches. The games and computer were a bonus. It was a great spot for day trips to grandfather mountain.

Magical cabine!

We love this magical cabin. It is decorated in mushrooms and woodland whimsy inside and out. It was well-equipped for a comfortable stay. We didn't bring our dog on this trip, but the house is also geared towards a comfortable stay for your dog, so next time, I plan to bring ours. I will definitely be back.

cutest cabin

The cabin is just like the pictures, it had everything you could need and was very close to any activities. It was the perfect getaway and after hours on the slopes the hot tub was heavenly. It really feels like your staying in a story book, couldn't be happier with our stay.

Perfect weekend getaway w/ our dogs

Melissa the host is amazing!! Super helpful and very easy to reach and communicate with -response time was always super quick!! Cabin was clean and fully stocked with everything we could need/want!! Hot tub was perfect!! We've stayed at a lot of vrbo's and hot tubs are typically warm water and hopefully 1 jet works! This hot tub was hot, clean and lots of jets!! Perfect:) The stars at night were clear, plentifully and amazing!! The fireplace outside was nice and you can get a roaring fire going!! I have no recommendations! It was perfect for 2 adults and 2 dogs!!Thank you Melissa for sharing your cabin in the mountains with us!! We had a great time!!

We arrived Saturday at check in time, we were so comfortable we did not leave until check out time on Tuesday. Temps outside were in the 1’s and a light snow. Wonderful place to stay and LOVE how it is decorated. Plan to go back when we can use the outside area.

Coziest bungalow

This bungalow was an excellent stay. Pictures and description were accurate. Whimsical decor everywhere you looked. Wonderful attention to detail. Extremely cozy and beautiful.We had everything we need to cook in regards to pots, pans, dishes, etc. Our children LOVED their bedroom, the toy closet, and book selection. Beds were super comfortable.The house is very close to other houses but the outdoor area makes it very private. We used the outdoor fireplace and hot tub. We did have issues with the hot tub- we couldn’t raise the temp above 99. The owners were very responsive but we still couldn’t figure it out. We still enjoyed the tub though and the stars were beautiful.This house was an excellent stay though I would say may not be suitable for more than 4 people, and perhaps larger individuals may find it a bit too small.

Amazing Getaway!

We had the absolute best weekend getaway at the super cute cabin. Melissa was in touch at the beginning and end of our stay and was absolutely amazing. Everything about this place is great, from the well stocked kitchen, to the enviable hot tub. We took a day trip to Banner Elk and stopped at the great RV tap room on the way back. There is no question that we will be back again, maybe this time in warmer weather so we are able to enjoy the grounds of the neighborhood more. Thank you so much, Melissa for an unforgettable weekend! We will see you again soon!!!

5 Stars – A Perfect Thanksgiving Getaway

Whimsical Mountain Cabin exceeded all our expectations! The cabin was beautifully decorated, cozy, and spotless, with thoughtful touches throughout. The hot tub and outdoor fireplace were a hit for relaxing evenings, and the location was perfect—easy to access and a great launching point for our family hikes around the stunning High Country. Our two kids and dog loved it just as much as we did. The host was attentive and made sure our Thanksgiving week stay was absolutely perfect. Highly recommend for families looking for a peaceful mountain retreat! Recommended hikes: Rough Ridge Trail, Grandfather Trail to McRae Peak, Hawksbill Mountain Trail.

Good

If we did not have so much rain I would have enjoyed the outside fireplace and hot tub, but that is not the owners fault. It is so nice they are there. There are 2 covered porches and the back was my favorite. The whole place is so private because of all the plants. You feel isolated, but your not. Lots of wonderful neighbors that will help if you need. The inside is gorgeous.

Escape Within

Despite proximity to a variety of outdoor explorations, this cabin’s super power is the escape within. The feel of a large wooded estate shrunken to a small cabin on a 1/2 acre (only a guess) lot. Beautiful and varied landscape to meander and rest that is within only a few steps. Even the gentle, never seen, sounds of a large housing neighborhood seem to fade into the relaxation and reflection. Highly recommend. But an honest warning. 2-B, 2-B 2-bunks make 2-young children doable, but definitely too tight and may cancel the R&R feel
