There are three outdoor cameras on this property for the security of the property and the safety of guests. These are located at the front entrance, the sliding door on the deck, and overlooking the driveway and garage.

ONE pet dog is permitted, with notice. An additional $60 pet fee will be applied to cover additional cleaning costs. If guests do not disclose their pet dog prior to arrival, this fee will increase to $120. Pets should stay off the furniture and be in the control of their owner at all times. The guest must pick up all solid waste and dispose of it in sealed bags in outside trash cans. The guest is responsible for any additional costs incurred due to damage or waste left behind by the pet. We do not have a fenced in yard and the mountains do have predators. Because of this, no pet food should be left outside and guests bring the pet dog at their own risk.

GUEST ACCESS
Driveway parking (up to 3 cars) Covered garage for smaller vehicles or motorcycles. Front-wheel drive is required to access the property via a windy mountain road, with 4-wheel drive highly recommended, especially in inclement weather, such as snow/ice.

Greetings and welcome to Flying Pig Hollow! When we embarked on this cabin rental journey, we had two goals. The first goal was to create a destination for people that would be relaxing, perfect for board games by the fire or reading outside with a view of the mountains we love, and also offer the opportunity for adventure, history, and exploration. We feel the location we landed on in Sylva does exactly that. Our second goal was to choose a name that had meaning to us and our love of the surrounding mountains. How you might ask, do flying pigs help with that goal? Let us tell you.

Both of us were born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, a river city once called Porkopolis, due to the high number of pigs and pork products that contributed to its booming economy in the 1800s. In fact, to this day, it is the only city where you will find a German pork/oat dish called goetta. Eventually, the flying pig became the unofficial mascot of the city. The name for this cabin is a nod to our hometown and the city where we met almost twenty years ago. It also acknowledges an incredible dream to own a cabin in the mountains of North Carolina, which at one time, seemed impossible… a dream we are thrilled to share with you.

Why they chose this property

At Flying Pig Hollow, we hope you find all of the comforts of home, with both adventure and tranquility at your doorstep. Please follow us on Instagram @flyingpighollow & tag us in any adventures you have while staying in Sylva. We love to see people enjoying the cabin & surrounding areas. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #whenpigsfly
