Grandpa Dans Cabin+Mtn River view 34 acre retreat
Let your worries melt away at this rustic hand-hewn cabin built from local timber. Nestled on 34 acres of mixed hardwoods overlooking the French Broad River, this private mountain getaway is perfect for those wanting to relax and rejuvenate. Mtn-road-appropriate vehicle a must!
This rustic cabin features a wrap-around deck and an open floor plan with comfortable sleeping for 7 on the second floor. The master bedroom is spacious with a picture window and has a king bed, ample closet space, and Grandpa Dan`s Mom`s dresser. The second bedroom sleeps three and has a large closet and single dresser. A cozy second floor sleeping nook with full-size bed makes for a comfortable, private-feeling third sleeping area. There is a small television with Roku, and the WIFI is fast so movies can also be streamed on your laptop if you want to cozy up with a movie after a day of outdoor adventures. The outdoor shower is available during the warmer months.
Access to this secluded oasis requires a mountain-appropriate vehicle, (4wd or front wheel drive with mountain driving experience) especially during the colder months. Access roads are partly paved and partly gravel and are beautiful, but winding and steep or rugged in places. Most guests prefer 4 or all wheel drive. Parking for 2-3 vehicles above, and 2 in front, of the main entrance are available. The entire cabin minus the basement is yours during your visit. Please message host prior to booking if you have any question about your vehicle`s mountain-readiness or any other access questions!
Friendly local host assistants available as needed.
Grandpa Dan`s Cabin rests on a secluded 34-acre parcel of wooded land along the French Broad River. Surrounded by wilderness and the occasional cabin, you will find the neighborhood perfect for peaceful star-gazing, quiet walks, hiking, and other outdoor adventures.
4-wheel drive during the cold months, and 4-wheel or front wheel drive required to reach this mountain getaway!
