Rustic Updated Cabin in the Heart of the Appalachian High Country

Escape to our charming little cabin, nestled on 15 acres of rolling pastureland and Christmas tree fields in the serene foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Built in the 1940s as a tenant farmer’s home, this hidden gem sits quietly up the hill behind our big old farmhouse, offering privacy and tranquility. Relax on the porch, watch the birds, and stargaze under clear mountain skies.
Located in Ashe County, in North Carolina’s northwest corner near the Virginia line, you’re just minutes from adventure:

-15 minutes to Grayson Highlands State Park
-20 minutes to White Top Mountain, Mount Rogers, the Appalachian Trail, and the Virginia Creeper Bike Trail
-Steps away from Helton Creek, a local favorite for fishing, just across the road
-Short drives to the New River and New River State Park

For a taste of local culture, explore nearby West Jefferson—a quaint town with boutique shops, cafes, a cheese factory, brewery, and a small museum in the historic courthouse. Enjoy the Saturday farmers market or summer street festivals featuring old-time and bluegrass music. Boone, Blowing Rock, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are just an hour away.
Perfect for nature lovers, music enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a peaceful getaway, our cabin offers a slice of mountain life with all the comforts of home.

Beautiful mountain cabin

Great place to stay, very nicely decorated, comfortable and clean. It’s very peaceful and private, you can sit outside on two seperate decks, on the one in the back we enjoyed breakfast and in the evening we used the barbecue. Lots to do in the area, and so nice to have such a beautiful place to come home to after a busy day!

The cabin had all the features as listed, and the host, Rosemary, was responsive and helpful. There is a stream nearby with ambient flowing sound and a hill that offers a beautiful view of the surrounding area. I highly recommend the place.

Old fashioned little tenant hose

They had thought of everything to make it pleasing and comfortable. It was a very nicely refurbed little 4 room house. The beds were comfortable and the furnishings were just right for the cute little houseJust our style- we hope to return!

Terrific solitude

If you want to get away from it all for a few days, this is the place! We were there for 5 days and never heard traffic or sirens... Just the occasional bellowing of a cow and birds chirping. Will definitely stay here again.
