About this property

Shadow Ridge Retreat | Pet Friendly + Stunning Mountain Views

This cozy cabin is the perfect mountain sanctuary for you and your family— just as it is for the monarch butterflies that reside here. If you've been searching for a private cabin in the woods with enchanting views, look no further. With such a great location, it's easy to take in the expansive mountain and valley views whether you're gathered around the fireplace inside or resting on the back deck.

As the sun goes down, you can visit the Monarch Butterfly sanctuary just below the cabin, and once it's dark, you can roast marshmallows and tell stories around the outdoor fire pit. This retreat will allow you to enjoy the best of what nature has to offer while still being conveniently located just a short drive away from Hendersonville, Arden, Fletcher, and Asheville.

House Layout:
This well-built log home features an open floor plan with a two-story great room with TV for streaming, a wood-burning fireplace, plenty of natural light, a primary bedroom on the main level with a king bed and full bath (accessible from bedroom and hallway), a guest bedroom upstairs with a bunk bed and also a full bed (streaming TV in this room). The upper level offers an open, loft-style bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom in the hallway. Outside, there is a fire pit for your enjoyment.

Please Note: This home is pet friendly with an additional fee. Parts of the road leading to the home are narrow. The last half mile is gravel and a high clearance vehicle is highly recommended in the event the road is rutted out after weather.

Family Reunion

Outstanding experience. House was amazingly clean and in great condition. Porch had wonderful modular seating that was in new condition. Communication was clear, frequent, and very helpful. Not only did they send all information in a timely manner, they called to ensure I received everything and to answer any questions. The view was well worth the drive up the narrow, gravel road. Internet worked well, which was surprising given the location. Highly recommend. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Perfect Thanksgiving Retreat

The cabin was exactly what we wanted with sweeping views, a cozy fireplace, and comfy beds. We got to explore many beautiful hiking trails and enjoy Asheville, then return home for a snack and tea by the fire. While it was a drive up the mountain to get there, the privacy and views made it worth it.

Great Mountain Getaway

The cabin is close to hiking trails, waterfalls, and all that Asheville has to offer. It also offers a secluded setting to just relax. We used the back deck for morning coffee and afternoon glasss of wine. It was peaceful - and beautiful. The cabin is clean and organized. We were thrilled with our stay there.

Perfect cabin with great hiking trails

Feels off the beaten path when you first drive in from Interstate 26, but actually you are only 15-20 minutes to restaurants, Whole Foods, fresh market, Publix etc. We came with our 2 dogs and the hiking trails practically across the street were wonderful. The back porch was a great place to lounge and take a nap in the sun. I would definitely rent this little gem again.

Great family getaway

The property is as pretty as it looks from the pictures. It's really a relaxing place to be. Very well equipped. In a summer stay, getting up the access road was just about all our minivan could handle (rough road up a steep hill). No way it's doable without AWD/4WD in the winter.

Shadow Ridge

Great place to spend in the mountains. Enjoyed the area. Only negative is the grass needs cut and the one lane road was a challenge. Almost had an accident of drivers coming up too fast and no where to go. Otherwise, great place!

This place is legit!

This title, the text I received from the first member of our girl's weekend to arrive. Overall, the beautiful home was all we could hope for. It is 'tucked' into the mountain, and drive is steep, narrow - well worth the journey upon seeing and enjoying it. Recommend. Would like to come back!
