COUNTRY HAVEN OPEN FOR BUSINESS ,MT VIEWS,10MIN AVL,3/2,FP ,WIFI, FIREPIT

I traveled to the mountains where the eagles made their nests. There I saw the hand of God: I saw creation at its best.......To lighten your heart, ease your mind, relax your body, renew your spirit and heighten your sense of awareness to the peace and contentment found in the wonderful gifts of nature, there is no better place than the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Great Smoky Mountains, and, as our many visitors know, COUNTRY HAVEN is where to experience it all. This magical retreat is an authentic log cabin filled with beautiful antiques and many articles handcrafted with care by the owner adding a touch of warmth and charm to every room.

This alluring cabin and our smaller cabin 'Tranquility Knoll' are situated on 1 1/2 acres of privately owned land, nestled among rolling hills with majestic mountains in the background. As you relax on the wrap-around covered porch or breakfast on the deck, you will enjoy the scenic view along with the country sounds of chickens, cows, and horses on the neighboring land. You will be pleasantly surprised when wild turkeys wander by. Sitting quietly, you can even hear them munching on the grasses' .Evenings sit around the firepit and roast your marshmallows.

Perfect Cabin Stay for Asheville

The cabin was beautiful, the pictures don’t do it justice. 10-15 mins to downtown Asheville, but far enough away to have some peace and quiet. It was perfect for a golf trip with some friends. Gerlinde the owner was very nice and made the whole process super easy. Highly recommend!
