About this property

MountainSunrise-Rustic Cabin-20 mins-Asheville

Tranquil newly built modern rustic home away from home set deep in the mountains on private 13 acre family owned property. Watch a stunning sunrise from the front porch while enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature surrounding you. Disconnect from the chaos of real life in order to deeply connect with yourself and your loved ones, while still having access to anything you may need. All within 20 minutes of downtown Asheville!! Full kitchen, gas firepit, netted trampoline, pond w/ waterfall, well water, turntable with vintage record collection, and DVD with classic movie collection. A beautiful two bedroom one bath bungalow. Full bathroom and fully equipped kitchen. Spacious living room with electric fireplace. This is more than just a place to sleep - we have added a playground/exercise area for children of all ages and adults.

We had an amazing time at the cabin! It was nice and secluded, yet close enough to Weaverville and Asheville (and the surrounding areas) for activities, groceries, etc. We loved the little touches like the record player and playground for the kids. We would stay here again if back in the area.

We loved our stay at this cozy cabin! It was cute and charming, even better than the photos. We were able to bring our dog and really enjoyed sitting on the front porch, playing games, and listening to records. We would definitely recommend staying here and will stay again when back in the area.

This cabin stay was truly wonderful and offered a much-needed sense of peace. The host was incredibly welcoming and kept in excellent communication throughout. They were also very responsive to any needs that arose during the visit. It's clear they put a lot of effort into making guests feel comfortable. I would highly recommend this lodging for a relaxing getaway.

Beautiful view and a clean cabin. The mattress was a little firm and there was a decent amount of bugs but it's hard to escape them in the mountains during the summer. The host was very nice and responsive.

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is clear the owners have spent much time and effort figuring out what would make guests' stay comfortable. We had everything we needed, for ourselves and our dogs. The beds are comfortable and the towels luxurious. The front porch and rocking chairs are great. The view is spectacular. This is one of the nicest rentals we have ever stayed in, if not the nicest one! We will return.

Nancy was very communicative. We arrived to the cabin a little earlier than check-in to drop off one of our cars so that we could go explore Asheville. Phil and Nancy were there cleaning the cabin. They were super sweet and welcoming. The property is beautiful. The day was actually quite lovely so we sat on the porch for a while before going to dinner in Asheville. It is a nice comfortable cabin, a great getaway. If you were looking for a place to just relax and get away from the hustle and bustle, it is a perfect location. It’s about 20 minutes to downtown Asheville.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Hanf

Host profile image
Philip and Nancy moved from Morehead City, NC, to this property in April 2018 after retiring from owning a business at the beach to spend time with their children and grandchildren. They built the 2 bungalows on the 12-acre property and are enjoying hosting guests from all over the world!

Why they chose this property

The mountain views and sunrises are spectacular. This is a quiet property, easily accessible on main roads, but with a country feel (watch the cows on the adjacent property and some deer and wild turkeys), while only 20 minutes to all of the activities in downtown Asheville. Great for families and their pets, but also the perfect couples getaway.

What makes this property unique

You can get away and relax with the added benefit of all the activities in Asheville only 20 minutes away on main roads.
