About this property
Amazing Whimsical Mtn Cabin! Pet Friendly, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Winery, Skiing
A classic mountain cabin full of artistic touches and charming outdoor spaces, privately nestled in rhododendrons, with a gorgeous outdoor stone fireplace and new hot tub! Your mountain hideaway is in Linville Land Harbor—a resort community—with a lake and sandy beach, provided kayaks/paddleboats, pool, hiking trails, river for fishing stocked trout, golf course, pickleball courts, tennis courts, arcade, and parks for children (and your furry companions too).
The cabin has just been fully renovated and is stocked with all-new, comfortable furnishings. In every room and throughout the outdoor spaces, you will see thoughtful touches to enhance your experience—warm robes for when you get out of the hot tub, high-quality cookware, relaxing chairs on the back deck to watch birds and enjoy your morning coffee, warm ambient lighting, handmade art, and more.
There is even a Mac computer and great WiFi if you need to get some work done while staying.
Need something for the children to entertain themselves while you relax? We have you covered! There is an understairs nook filled with toys, games, art supplies, costumes, and books.
Come see what drew us to this corner of the NC highlands. You can basically step out the front door and get lost in the beauty of the Linville Gorge and Pisgah National Forest. It’s less than 3 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway, and minutes to quintessential mountain towns like Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, and Boone. Ski slopes; hundreds of miles hiking trails, gravel roads, and mountain bike trails; amazing caverns; wineries; the breathtaking Linville Falls and Linville Gorge; Wiseman’s View; Grandfather Mountain and its mile-high swinging bridge; gem mining; antique shopping; and more are all less an hour’s drive!
Something else we love about this area is that it's an easy trip to explore Asheville (10 million visitors per year!) and the Biltmore House. So you can have all the amazing offerings of this area plus be in Asheville in a little over an hour, if you want to expand your adventures.

About the host
Hosted by Edward Porter
We (Ed and Rachel) are two avid outdoor lovers. We moved to NC for the variety and ease of access from the mountains to the sea. Overly enthusiastic cyclists (well, at least Ed), we also love to hike, so the Appalachia is our go to destination. Our hope as hosts is to make people’s visits with to the mountains one to remember–whether that be getting lost on the endless gravel roads of Pisgah, hiking to an awe-inspiring vista, or snuggling up by the fire.
