The cabin Willow is a family log home that sets one mile from the heart of Little Switzerland NC. It has 2 bedrooms 2 1/2 bath with a loft. Just outside the front door there is a pond where the frogs will sing to you at night. Look for the deer in the quiet of the morning while sipping a cup of coffee. The property is filled with nature. A photographer's paradise! We often see wild turkeys, foxes, Minks, Beavers, Possums, a variety of birds, such as hummingbirds, Hawks and nesting Geese. It is very relaxing to sit on the front porch and watch and listen to all the sights and sounds here. Bring your binoculars!

Willow is less than a mile from the Blue Ridge Parkway and The Little Switzerland Inn Resort. The Switzerland Inn has a pub that locals and travelers dine. The Books N Beans coffee shop/ Book Store, General Store and Little Switzerland Cafe all in the town of Little Switzerland, NC.

Willow is centrally located. Lots of hiking, many waterfalls, horseback riding, local wineries, breweries, gemming mines.

Asheville, NC is an hour south. Blowing Rock, Banner Elk and Boone, NC is 45 mins or an hour north. You can drive the Blue Ridge Parkway to get to any of these places.

Walmart, CVS and Ingles grocery store are located in the town of Spruce pine, NC. Which is a few short miles from Little Switzerland, NC.

Cabin in the Sky

We loved our mountain Cabin. Sitting by the pond and watching the wildlife and listening to the frogs and birds sing was wonderful! We saw Turkey hens and their babies comfortable enough to walk up to the cabin. We had a great time! The place was perfect for us!

very cozy and charming

We stayed here while we on a motor cycle weekend during the summer. It was a GREAT relief from the heat. The house is very cozy and charming. The pond is beyond beautiful. The owners live up the path and were very helpful and accommodating. I would stay there again if I am in the area.

Mountain Stay

Willow is a great place to rest after a long day exploring the numerous stops along the Blue Ridge Parkway. The location is conveniently located near the parkway without all of the traffic. Marsha was an excellent host, with great communication, willing to help with whatever we needed.

Lovely spot

Willow is just perfect for a getaway that's close to a lot. It's homey and quiet and the pond lends a sense of tranquility. If you are looking to escape, this is perfect! We loved it! Note that there is not a hair dryer even though the listing says there is.

Relaxing, Peaceful, Quiet

Cozy Mountain Cabin truly exceeded all our expectations! Marsha is a wonderful host. The cabin is located one mile from the Blue Ridge Parkway in a location in close proximity to many activities including Linville Falls, Grandfather Mountain, Emerald Village Gem Mine, and Mount Mitchell, as well as numerous great hikes. The cabin is also located in Little Switzerland, which is a quaint little village with great dining experiences. The cabin was very clean and the beds so comfortable! The kitchen is very nice! We absolutely enjoyed having coffee on the front porch to start and end our days while our teenager enjoyed kayaking around the little pond. We are so glad we found this cabin near the Blue Ridge and, if ever in this area, we will definitely stay again. We highly recommend this very clean and relaxing cabin.

This was an amazing experience. My family and I all had a great time in this cabin. Everything was VERY clean and Marsha provided everything we needed. Marsha was very kind and made sure we got there without any problems. The cabin is espectacular! It Is very close to waterfalls and other attractions like the blue ridge parkway, little Switzerland and mining museum. I can't wait to visit again!! Thank you for everything Marsha!!

A place to relax

Marsha was great!! The weather was horrible on our first night, so we had some issues finding our way back to the cabin. I called her and she was more than happy to walk us through an alternate route. The cabin was clean just as described. I would stay here again and have already recommended this place to a friend. Great place with a great price. Great place to spend time with family and relax.

Froggy Fun

Great cabin. My husband and I stayed for a few days. There was plenty of room for us and about 4 more people if needed. Every night for about 2 hours the frogs around the pond started singing. It was great! Marsha the owner was nice and helpful. She responded quickly. The driveway is steep, but doable. Would most definitely stay here again.

Little Gem!

We absolutely LOVED this property. If you are looking to get away from all the hustle and bustle this is the place. Very roomy, everything you need is there. The ONLY thing I would not recommend is if you have a motorcycle this is not the place for you. We were suppose to bring our motorcycles on this trip and changed our minds at the last minute and brought our jeep instead. The driveway is very steep and all gravel. But it made it fun for us using our 4x4.

Amazing location and property

What a pleasant surprise! This place far surpasses the photos! My children loved chasing fire flies, watching and listening to the bull frogs running around the pond! So convenient to so many things to do and just minutes off the Blue Ridge Parkway! Marsha was a great communicator, gave detailed directions to the home with photos of landmarks making it super easy to find. She had the home/ kitchen stocked wonderfully for our stay. There are also a bunch of pamphlets / information in the home to inform you of things to do, places to eat, visit, etc. We found this to be very helpful in deciding where to visit and eat! Our family is already planning our return to the cabin but with a new list of things to do and places to see! What a peaceful, beautiful place to stay!!

Frog & Hummingbird Heaven!

This is my new favorite place to be. I felt at home in that there was everything we needed and intuitively put where you'd look for it. I love the decor and all the artsy accents. The first few hours there we saw so many hummingbirds and several deer and heard tons of frogs. I actually miss being here. The cabin is so secluded but a mile away is Little Switzerland with great places to eat a nice meal, a sweet treat or a cute souvenir. It rained a bit when we were there and yet it was wonderful sitting on the front porch. Check in was seamless and the directions were sent in a text which was key to get to the place. Internet was great surprisingly which enabled us to plan our day. Marcia is a great host and communication with her was effortless. I actually considered giving this place a terrible review so people won't know how great it is so it'd be available to us when we want/need to come back. But that would be selfish. We will be back, Marcia!

Cute Cabin

Cabin is as described with kitschy Native American decor. The kitchen had the basics needed to prepare meals. Be aware there is a regular coffee pot, so bring your coffee grounds. If you want to build a fire inside or outside, Walmart sells firewood in their Lawn and Garden section. If you are a light sleeper, be aware that the bedrooms are one over the other. You can hear whatever someone does upstairs, even when they roll over in bed, it creaks. This bothered me, but not my husband. I thought this was a secluded cabin for some reason. It does have houses around it. They're not on top of you, but you have one to the side and several behind the cabin. Also, if you are looking for peace and quiet, this cabin is right off a road that gets a good bit of traffic. No other real noise though. Just sharing since some people are looking for absolute quiet when looking for a place to stay. Marsha was very responsive and nice. Very easy to work with. The cabin is conveniently located to the BRP and Little Switzerland. There is also a Walmart close by in Spruce Pine if you need anything.
