About this property
Eli Reeves Cabin at Hobbyknob Farm - Authentically restored 1820 Log Cabin
Come enjoy a winter treat with a real fireplace and all the free wood you need!
This two story log cabin was originally built in 1820 by Eli Reeves, an Indiana furniture maker. In the fall of 2015 it was moved log by log to our farm and was restored to feel like you stepped back in time but with very special touches. If these logs could talk!
The first word most guests say is "wow" and we worked hard to earn that. If you do an internet search for the cabin name you will see our 185 plus all 5 star reviews.
We set out to create something special that would stand out to share with guests. Come experience this piece of history and make some memories of your own.
We are a working Fiber Farm raising rare breed sheep, Llamas and Alpacas.
We have chickens for farm fresh eggs for you.
Plenty of firewood for the wood burning fireplace and central heat and air.
We are 4 miles from Main Street in Weaverville and 11 miles from Asheville right up I-26.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Daron and Elizabeth
We escaped from Atlanta in 1997 with our 14 month old daughter. Elizabeth has had a love of the mountains since attending camp in the area and spending weekends with her family at their small property in the North GA mountains. Asheville offered mountains and activities without all the traffic. We found the space we craved in the little town of Weaverville that is an easy drive to Asheville.
Why they chose this property
In the sea of choices of choices for lodging we set out to create something special. A chance to share a bit of country life in an authentic historic structure that was built combining period details while building a comfortable space well built with all the creature comforts you'd dream of. Central heat and air, a wood burning fireplace, well equipped kitchen, and large master bath with soaking tub and separate shower. All situated for optimum privacy. Photos don't do this cabin justice!
What makes this property unique
We are close to everything yet far enough away to feel secluded. Activities in our area are extensive. We can recommend many from our own experiences like fly fishing guides, horse back riding or hikes with the best views. Dining options cover a full array of choices. We are close to Asheville and Weaverville, both tourist towns that offer a little of everything.
