About the host
Hosted by Steve Pearson
Hi, we are Steve and Soony Pearson, the owners of Logs and Stones Vacation Rentals. Steve is also the General Manager. We split our time between a log home in Little Switzerland and Miami since, following his retirement from his former job, Steve agreed in late 2011 to work as the Director of the University of Miami's Gifford Arboretum. While this prevents us from living in North Carolina full time, Steve is passionate about plants and their importance, and he believes he can accomplish meaningful things at the Arboretum. In the meantime, he is afforded a lot of flexibility in his schedule, and we are living in NC a good portion of the year, particularly in the summer and winter months. While we are constantly involved in improving the property and will be actively involved in all aspects of our business, we also have our friend Doug McKinney working as Property Manager. Doug's family has been in this area for many generations (you will drive on 'McKinney Mine Road' to reach our cabin!), and he has a wealth of information about same and North Carolina mountain living. He is also a genuinely nice guy who lives less than a half mile from the cabin.
We believe that we have a great team in place, and all of us are committed to insuring that your stay in the cabin will be fun and memorable. So come enjoy yourself and recharge your batteries in this exceptionally nice log cabin in a beautiful area. We'll try to get you as close to heaven as you can get in this world.

Why they chose this property
There are many lovely areas and nice properties in the mountains of North Carolina. However, there aren't many areas where you can also get a taste of traditional mountain living. While quaint and charming, Little Switzerland is not, and hopefully never will be, a tourist mecca or a wealthy enclave that some areas have become. This is partly due to geography (its at the 'Crest of the Blue Ridge'), but also because there is a lot of preserved wilderness in the area. Yes, things like golf are available locally and some homes are very expensive, but this is not an area where there are too many houses crammed together to share a view, or exclusive millionaire only housing fronting on fancy golf courses. Instead, you will drive by fields with horses and cows and then get on the Blue Ridge Parkway to go get groceries, which are only 6 miles from the cabin. This property is peaceful and bucolic, with lots of wildlife and a smattering of true characters who keep mountain independence alive, but its also convenient and easy to use. So, if you want to stay in a great cabin on a lovely property where you can still experience 'old North Carolina,' including authentic mountain music, then come try our cabin. Its soul shine!
While we love the area's rural character, its also an area where you can easily satisfy creature needs, including medical care. After looking ALL over western North Carolina, we decided that Little Switzerland was the perfect fit between a rural/natural setting and being close to stores and modern needs. It perfect to us and we believe you will feel the same way.

What makes this property unique
Our property is a special mix of terrains. Not many places offer mountain views, open pasture, forested knolls, a spring fed pond, and a creek, but you can experience and explore all of those here.
The owners' long term goals are to maintain the property as a nature preserve while also planting out what will become a de facto botanical garden. Lots of interesting species have already been planted, and one of the things that really prompted the land's purchase was its diversity.
Our property affords a unique opportunity to feel like you have 'gotten away from it all', while having the comfort of knowing that if you need good or services, or even medical care, they are not far away.
And PLEASE consider our cabin if you are a young family looking for a family get away. The couch in the cabin converts to a bed that can sleep up to 2 young children, and one of our motivations in starting this business was to afford young children the same opportunity that I enjoyed and benefited from as a child - the chance to explore and discover nature, and to run wild and free in a natural environment, which unfortunately is far from the realm of experience of most children today. I know that the childhood adventures I enjoyed during summers in the NC mountains were some of the best times of my life, and that they changed me in some important and positive ways. Please consider affording your children these kinds of experiences. Staying in our cabin can be a great opportunity for your family to re-bond in a positive and meaningful way.
