Relaxation Galore at 3 Cub

My husband and I had a nicevisit at 3 Cub. We were in the area to attend a production of Dirty Dancing at the Flat Rock Playhouse. The location of the cabin was only a short distance to the theater with several restaurants close by. However, while at the cabin we felt we were in the forest. The cabin was spotless and decorated nicely. Everything we needed was there. We enjoyed the wine and other snacks that were provided by the host. The outside area was private and so peaceful. We’ll definitely visit 3 Cub in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Roz Sheppard

I am a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother born and raised in the panhandle of Florida who loves the western NC mountains.

This property was originally purchased by my husband's paternal grandmother in 1964 when it was known as the Honeymoon Cottage. My husband inherited it from his parents in 1998 and we built an addition to the cottage in 2000. We live in that addition adjacent to the cottage.

When the bears visited, we gave a new name to the cottage.

Why they chose this property

This property is secluded, surrounded by trees. It is a great neighborhood for walking and the conference grounds supply some seasonal opportunities. Flat Rock Park with hiking trails is less than 1 mile away. The ample trails at Carl Sandburg Historic Site are within walking distance. Flat Rock's Rainbow Row is within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

This property is located in the Associate Reformed Presbyterian denominational conference grounds so that guests have the privilege of use of conference facilities when they are open.
