Your safety and comfort are our top priorities in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Access and Parking Information:

Parking:
The cabin's elevated perch requires navigating a steep paved driveway that transitions into gravel. While all vehicles can manage the paved section, an AWD is essential for the gravel part. Ensure your AWD is in good condition and that you're comfortable with steep gravel terrain. If uncertain, we recommend parking at the hosts' house before proceeding, especially if arriving at night.

For non-AWD vehicles, park just below the cabin at our main house. We'll reserve a spot for you, and it's a brief walk up the gravel driveway to the cabin. Please refrain from attempting the gravel ascent without AWD to avoid potential damage.

Stairs:
Ascend to the cabin via approximately 7 steps, exercising caution and utilizing handrails for safety. Note that the cabin may pose challenges for those with mobility concerns. For further details, please feel free to message us.

Beautiful get away close to it all
We really enjoyed our stay here! The cabin was spotless and extraordinarily well appointed. The bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the fire place on cool mornings and the porch swing and upstairs porch were great for sitting and sipping coffee. Our hosts were so kind and helpful! They were very easy to communicate with and I would highly recommend trying some of their delicious scones! As the listing states, the driveway is steep and not for vehicles without all or four wheel drive. I had no issue with my truck, but if you don't have a capable vehicle, don't let it deter you. The walk from the hosts alternative parking to the cabin is quite short. The cabin is close to Marshall and Asheville if you're looking to explore.

Great spot!
We took our six month old on his first trip to western NC and all had a blast! The cabin is beautiful and is situated in close proximity to hiking, fishing, and the Asheville brewery scene. Marshall’s wonderful Main Street is only minutes down the road. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing weekend vacation!
I took my husband here for a birthday surprise and it was such a cute and relaxing cabin! The cabin was beautiful and we really enjoyed the record player! Marshall, NC also has a lovely historic downtown with cute shops and places to eat. This was a great place to stay and we’ll definitely be back! P.S. I would highly recommend getting the scones the host offers!

Cozy cabin
We loved this cozy, mountaintop cabin. Close enough to Asheville, but far enough away for peace and quiet. Jenny and Freddy were very accommodating hosts. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
