About this property

Asheville - Mountain Laurel Cabin - Secluded Mountain Getaway

Nestled in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, just beneath majestic Mount Pisgah, you will find Mountain Laurel Cabin. Even though you are just minutes from downtown Asheville, when you drive up the paved driveway you feel as if you are miles from civilization. Sitting on 15 acres of some of the most beautiful mountain land around, the cabin is enclosed by towering hardwood trees and native rhododendron, holly, and laurel bushes.

Step up on the covered front porch and relax in one of the comfortable rocking chairs or the old fashioned porch swing. As you enter the cabin, you will be impressed with the beautiful wood floors and spacious cathedral ceiling of the great room, complete with a wood burning fireplace, cozy, comfortable furniture, books, as well as the TV, DVD, and VCR. The fully furnished kitchen and dining area are just off the great room, where there is seating for seven to eight. The master bedroom is also on the main floor, boasting a comfy queen-size bed with the master bath adjoining the bedroom. A large closet is in this bedroom, and houses extra blankets, pillows, and lots of games and puzzles.

Upstairs you will find the sleeping loft, which would be perfect for a family, with its queen-size bed and two twin beds. A full-size bath with shower is also upstairs. How pleasant it is to doze off to sleep at night while gazing at the fire burning in the fireplace! Out the back door, step onto a deck that feels like you are walking into the woods. Sit out on the deck and grill some steaks on the gas grill while listening to the birds and watching the squirrels. Your own private hideaway!

In the basement you will find a washer and dryer and an extra bed if needed, even though the basement is unfinished and unheated. The cabin is air-conditioned for the summer and has a heat pump and fireplace for winter. You can even leave the doors open and enjoy the cool, clean mountain air! Come to our little piece of heaven in the wonderful Western North Carolina Mountains, rest, relax, and enjoy!

Cabin was extremely clean. Fully equiped with everything a family would need. It was even better than the description and pictures. Location was far enough outside of town to be remote, yet a short drive into Ashville for all the fun downtown has to offer. Short drive to Biltmore as well. At the end of the dead end street on the side of the mountain. Plenty big enough for an extended family stay. Hosts are the nicest folks!

Great Cabin

The cabin is tucked away in a mountain but close to Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway so you get seclusion and access to a city. The cabin description is accurate, the hosts communicate well, and the area is beautiful.

Perfect cabin

So much more space than expected for the two of us but the cabin was exactly as listed- very clean, secluded and pretty close to everything. The neighborhood/ street it was on was very nice too. Would love to stay again. Thank you!!!

Great Private Place

This was the perfect combination of a bit rustic on the outside with a beautifully decorated, modern and clean inside. The feel was amazing. We felt very alone while also close to everything that we wanted to do -hike, visit Asheville, etc. I highly recommend this property to anyone that wants a quiet and relaxing get away.

Cozy cabin in the woods :)

We loved your mountain cabin! It was the perfect place for my family and friends to spend the weekend for a birthday celebration. We made fond memories together and enjoyed a short drive to explore Asheville for the day. Hopefully we will return one day! Thank you for sharing your home :)

50th Anniversary Getaway

We booked the cabin as a romantic getaway for my In-Laws 50th wedding anniversary and they loved it. The view was beautiful and as they both love being in the mountains, it was the perfect cabin retreat for them and a great place to put their feet up after exploring Asheville and scenic mountain drives. They loved it!

Fall 2019 Mountain Laurel Cabin

The cabin was exceptionally clean. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. Mitzi was super responsive throughout the booking process and answered all my questions quickly and fully. Would 100% stay here again if given the option and would not hesitate to recommend this cabin.

About the host

Hosted by Mitzi Riddle

Host profile image
My husband and I and his brother and wife bought this property in the 90's. From the timber that had to be removed for the road and housesite, they sawed all the lumber to build the cabin. We even had the hardwood floors and cabinets made from the lumber the boys sawed at our sawmill! We love to have guests enjoy the "fruit of our labors" here in our beautiful mountains!

Why they chose this property

There are so many beautiful cabins in our area for you to enjoy, but we invite you to give us a try! We all grew up in the beautiful mountains of WNC and wanted a place for others to get to experience a little bit of what we are blessed to enjoy every day!

What makes this property unique

We do all we can to make your visit one you will enjoy and talk about for weeks to come! If it is quiet and if it is rest you crave, you can definitely find it here at Mountain Laurel! But you are still only a short drive away from "city life" and all the ammenities it holds. The cabin is fully stocked with most supplies you will need for your trip, so just load up the car and head to the mountains!
