Mountain Cabin, Fast Internet, Family & Pet Friendly, Hot Tub

One of five luxury log cabins. This charming, LUXURY log cabin resides on 25 acres of property with a bonfire pit, large pond, lighted fountain, picnic tables, horseshoe pit, hammock, running creek and walking trails. It's a perfect getaway for those that love nature, while still only 10 minutes to quaint downtown Black Mountain and Ingles grocery store. The cabin has 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, game room with air hockey & foosball table, fireplace, 2 flat screen televisions with DVD player, fully equipped kitchen and a wrap-around deck with a Jacuzzi and gas grill. Plenty of outdoor activities nearby for all ages and grassy area for kids to play. Perfect location for families traveling together - see also Highrock Retreat, Highrock Haven, Highrock Meadow and Mitchell View.

During mid December through the month of February, we do require 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive in case of snow and ice conditions. We can never predict the weather and some years it's hit or miss.

We thoroughly clean and wash all bedding and towels between each stay. We want you to know that we’re doing our part to help our guests stay safe by cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces as well (light switches, doorknobs, cabinet handles, remotes, etc.) before you check in!

Known as the Front Porch of Western North Carolina, Black Mountain is cradled by mountains and surrounded with gorgeous views and located just 15 minutes from Asheville. Our town overflows with arts and crafts galleries, artist studios, specialty and antique shops, bookstores and furniture stores, where you can bring a piece of the mountains back home with you. Enjoy lunch in one of the charming restaurants or cafes. Spend the afternoon at Lake Tomahawk with its walking path, swimming pool, tennis courts, golf and croquet.

Outdoor recreation and adventures are seemingly endless and include: Appalachian Trails, Historic Biltmore Home, Children Attractions, Wineries, Pisgah National Forest, White Water Rafting, Kayaking, Hot Air Balloons, Lake Lure Beach, Blue Ridge Parkway, Chimney Rock, Rock Climbing, Hiking, Fishing, Biking, Horseback Riding, Antiquing, Mini Golf, Skiing, Caverns, Museums, Golf, Spas, Minor League Baseball, Theatre or just relaxing on the property enjoying the nature with pond, creek and trails.

Nice Quiet cabin!

The cabin was perfect for what we needed. The location is a little tricky to get to but once there is was nice and quiet and offered a lot of amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. We also used what looked like a brand new grill to cook on site. We would definitely stay there again in the future.

Perfect Getaway

My family and I stayed here to have some r and r over the summer. It was absolutely perfect and we were so delighted with the cabin which is very secluded. If you love nature, and having your own hiking trails and access to mountain creeks (cold and clean water!), this is the place. We will definitely be back.

Great stay!

Our family had a wonderful time at this beautiful cabin in Black Mountain. We played horseshoes and had many evening fires. We also spent a lot of time together on the gorgeous deck and in the hot tub! Michelle, the property manager, was amazing. Would definitely recommend this home!!

Perfect getaway

We spent a long weekend with our kids and dogs in this beautiful cabin. It has everything you need. Beautiful views, walking trails, a bonfire pit for s’mores and a hot tub. It is perfectly located away from it all allowing you to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature but still a short drive to downtown Black Mountain and only about 30 mins to Asheville. Looking forward to staying here again with friends in the future!

Peaceful

We found the cabin to be very inviting once we found it! It is rather hard to find at night with no GPS. A good mile marker to look for is the long row of mailboxes on the right, then the next curve is the left turn into High Rock Acres. That being said, this place is beautiful, nicely stocked, and the walking trails are great! We made this trip hoping to explore Asheville but we all fell in love with the little town of Black Mountain! The antiques and shops are quaint and the locals are really nice. Several of us have plans to return with our spouses in the future!

Family trip

We had a wonderful time at the house. The game room was so fun and it was nice to have room for everyone to spread out and relax. The walking trails were great for the dog and there was a ton of fauna to enjoy. Right by the house was jewelweed, sassafras, plantain, wild blueberries, blackberry bushes, and rhododendron! We loved it and hope to return soon.

Mountain Oasis

This mountain cabin was perfect for our family. We had plenty of space, games and movies inside and fun trails on the property that allowed us to explore with our kids. Coffee on the porch overlooking the pond was a nice quiet morning bonus. The cabin was well equipped with everything we needed. Our family rates this cabin a 10 out of 10. We hope to be back in the near future.

Easter weekend

The cabin was beautiful. The grounds were spacious and gorgeous. The gravel RR tie steps up to the house were difficult to climb (I have bad knees and hips). It would be better with a king size bed with a softer mattress on the main level. The High Acres road from Hwy 9 needs to be paved. Too many pot holes! Didn't feel comfortable traveling the roads from Hwy 9 to the property at night due to road conditions. Thanks! Tami

Relaxing Getaway!

This is one of our favorite places to relax. The home was spotless and welcoming upon arrival. We had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. We love exploring the trails as well as the peace and quiet of the property. A trip to downtown Black Mountain for lunch and the local breweries is not to be missed.

Fabulous!

We had a wonderful stay at the house. Quiet and surrounded by woods - just what we needed! Only issue is that we have an old dog with hip issues, so tackling the long staircase to the house was a challenge for her, but she managed in the end. And she loved the little trail and creek on property!

Peaceful and Relaxing Escape

We enjoyed a weekend away from the city with friends in the beautiful cabin by the pond. The cabin was well appointed and spacious, and the grounds were peaceful and relaxing. We hiked several trails on the property and used the hot tub, which was a nice bonus. The host provided very detailed instructions before arrival, and though the gravel road was a bit tricky to navigate (this was noted in the listing), it was well worth the drive. Overall, we highly recommend this property!
