About this property

Luxury Cabin Overlooking Large Trout Pond on Former Summer Camp.. Come & Play

  • This luxurious mountain cabin sits atop a knoll overlooking a very large, stocked trout pond ready for fishing. Enjoy grilling out on the home's deck with the new grill while taking in the beautiful view, or just relaxing on the porch by candlelight listening to the cascading water over the rocks of the stream running to the side of the house.

    Inside you'll find a very large great room with a combination living/kitchen/dining room which is perfect for relaxing entertainment by the wood-burning, native stone fireplace---perfect on the chilly mountain nights. The living room is equipped with a new HD Television and Blu-Ray/DVD player, as well as DirecTV satellite TV with movie and sports channel packages. The home has wireless, Fiber optic high-speed internet access. The kitchen is equipped with all utensils, as well as virtually all baking, grilling, and other cooking tools that you'll need to prepare a gourmet meal. New glassware and dinnerware sets for 8 are stocked in the cabinets. A coffee maker with permanent filter, toaster, convection toaster oven, and microwave oven are in the home, as are a new washer and dryer set.

    This home has just recently been placed on VRBO and has new furnishings, linens, and high-end mattresses. The master BR has a King-sized bed and the second BR is a Queen-sized mattress. Sheets are 1000-thread count. The living room has a suitably comfortable sleeper sofa (Queen). Both bedrooms have new HDTV televisions with complete DirecTV channel packages.

    Originally a summer camp over fifty years ago, the property on which the home now sits is a private, family estate comprised of 66 mountainous acres with two ponds that are fed by 3 streams that all originate on the property. The home sits on the footprint of what was the camp's headmaster's cabin. The original native stone steps lead up the hill to the deck giving the cabin unique, historic character.

    There are only two cabins on this camp now, although the tract of land is very large---66 acres---so the two homes on this property remain private from one another. A small mountain separates the two and they are not within sight or hearing range of the other.

    There are two small fields at the top of the mountain that are perfect for playing games with the family and throwing balls to the dogs, etc. Unused gravel roads and trails wind through the property and are perfect for leisurely strolls, short hikes, and dog-walking. There are some hidden trails in the forest for those that are brave-hearted that like outright bushwhacking! Kids absolutely love playing in the streams on the property sifting through the water looking for 'rubies' in the rocks and throwing pebbles in the pond.... And the trout-fishing is loads of fun. The largest pond is about an acre and has an outbuilding/garage overlooking that's used as an entertainment site with a very large deck for grilling, eating out, or just relaxing while watching the kids fish.

    Structural relics of the old summer camp still exist throughout the property---stone foundations from the dining hall, a stone amphitheater in a mountain cove, old stone outdoor fireplaces, etc.----all making for interesting outdoor exploration.

    This property is much more than a rental home---it's an adventure!

    (Note: This is a newly added VRBO home, so look at my other home on the property if you'd like to see more reviews from former guest look at property number 350504. If this home is booked for the dates that you're interested in, then I suggest you consider the other home as well).

We loved staying at David’s place. The property is beautiful and there is much to explore there. The cabin was very clean and well stocked. Comfortable beds meant everybody slept well after long days spent hiking, fishing, and grilling on the deck.

Peaceful Tranquility

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this secluded cozy cabin nestled in nature and all its beauty. The house was well appointed, very well cleaned, supplied with all we needed, and lots of extras, such as top quality bedding and towels. There were nice areas to walk and we enjoyed fishing in the pond. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend to others.

Presidents Day weekend

It was a very clean, comfortable cabin with lots of space and fresh updates. Great little trout pond in the front yard, trails to hike, and not far from Brevard. Dave was a pleasure to work with and very responsive to our questions during the booking process. I’d highly recommend this property.

Summer Camp

Just what we wanted, away from town.. but close enough to enjoy Brevard and hiking in the different parks, waterfalls all day, every day. Host was very nice. We'd go back.. probably think more fishing. The other people staying on the property had great luck catching Rainbow Trout.

Peaceful Mountain Getaway

We were looking for someplace that was out of the way, but close to a variety of things to do. This property had it all!! Our dog loved being able to roam the property and explore the woods and streams. We were only a 15 minute drive to Brevard and about an hour drive to Asheville. The cabin was roomy and provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The front porch was a perfect place to relax with the family. We will definitely be back!

Had a great time!

Even though we had rainy weather, we really enjoyed staying at this house. It was comfortable, nice to have the garage. The beds were comfortable, there was a strong WiFi signal and good internet speed once you figured out how to connect (wasn’t clear at first). Fished the ponds out front and caught four large rainbow trout the first day! It was a comfortable house to get away and unwind in. Thank you!

Wonderful Stay

My wife, along with our two dogs, stayed for a week on the property. House was comfy, clean and well-stocked. Host even sent information with all of his favs and assorted things to do. Along with house instructions. The property is fun to explore and well-kept. The "shop" overlooking the pond, had most any toy available and even a foosball table and table top video games. Nice deck with chairs and tables to enjoy as you wish. Great vacation and will be happy to return.

Great Cabin Getaway

We only stayed two nights, but would’ve loved to stay longer. It was peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed the fire pit, sitting on the front porch and fishing. The cabin was everything we could’ve hoped for. The bedding was top notch. The host was great. Communication was easy. He has the place well stocked with anything you could need. Very thoughtful. We were very impressed and can’t wait to go back. It’s also very close to the national forest and if you forget something, it’s only ten minutes from town. It was great to be in such a tranquil spot. I strongly recommend this getaway.

Perfect

This cabin was perfect for us. It was extremely clean with tons of amenities. The location is quiet, peaceful, close to town and very dog friendly. It is on a beautiful, unique and well-kept piece of property. David was amazing. While we were there, we had a problem come up (that had nothing to do with the cabin). Immediately after I messaged David, he called us and helped us resolve the problem. I also left an item and once it was found it was promptly mailed back to me. I have not one complaint about the cabin. It was absolutely perfect.

Fantastic

One of the best vrbos that we have ever rented. We had the whole place to ourselfs. Most vrbos say everything there but lack a lot of items so we brought a lot of stuff we didnt need. I mean everything but food and clothing was provided. Our dog just loved it there he had a chance to be a dog. We left 2 days early not because of anything wrong but had a bad trip up with air in our truck stop working and did not want to travel on the weekend again. Next time we will go mid week to mid week. and take back rds up. All I can say is the time there was wonderful. Thank you Dave. We are already planning a return trip
