Secluded cabin

It was nice, the drive was definitely nerve wracking on wet roads but my AWD had no trouble making it up there. It was smaller than expected but served is purpose. The beds were SO comfortable but we couldn't get the TV or fireplace to work. The house ladbugs were our favorite! We cooked, sorry and left.

Perfect mountain getaway

Beautiful and peaceful location with cozy accommodations. Thoroughly enjoyed both the location in one of the most tranquil spots you will find east of the Mississippi. I rarely get a chance to getaway and cannot think of a better place to have been to enjoy that time. Great proximity to Banner Elk and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Weekend

We came up for a late anniversary celebration. The property is on a mountain. With front-wheel drive you would not have any issues driving up. The property is beautiful, lots of space, lovely apple trees, pond was nice to fish from. We sat outside every morning with our coffee. Our inside dog loved sitting on the porch all day.

Magical getaway!

This place was absolutely amazing! My husband, 2 kids and myself loved everything about it and were definitely sad to leave. We hiked all around the property, caught fish and rowed around the pond, picked blueberries, blackberries and apples. We saw deer everyday, along with a couple bunnies, groundhogs, lightning bugs and hummingbirds. We made s'mores at the fire pit and the hot tub was fun and relaxing. It was a magical place that we'll definitely have to come back to!

Relaxing Getaway

My best friend and I decided to take a quick girls trip and it was one of the best ones we have taken. Peaceful seclusion and just the two of us was all we wanted and that’s exactly what we got. We will definitely book again and highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from it all!

This was such an amazing property! 100 acres all to ourselves and they even allowed pets, so our dogs were able to have a wonderful time on all 100 acres!! The hot tub was the cherry on top!! We are positively going back again!

Weekend Mountain Getaway

We had a great time at the cabin over this past weekend. Very secluded location but close by to many attractions for hiking. The road is very steep so heed the warning about 4WD or AWD. The directions provided were spot on. The surrounding property was gorgeous with many wildflowers, wild life & so many apple trees. The hot tub was relaxing & porch was great for our morning coffee. The cabin was appointed with all of the cooking gear we needed to prepare meal. One word of warning is there is no air conditioning but thankfully it was a fairly cool weekend. Amazing stay overall!

About the host

Hosted by James Rice JR

Host profile image
I am originally from North Carolina and Diana is from New York and we met and married in South Florida.Its the classic tale of country boy meets city girl and the rest is history. We have 4 grown children and 5 grandchildren who we love spending time with. We enjoy nature and the great outdoors which is the main reason that we purchased Doublehead Mountain Retreat and the more than 100 acres of wild mountain land around it.

Why they chose this property

While growing up in a small North Carolina town as a child we took frequent trips to the NC mountains to enjoy the cool mountain air as well as the endless activities including fishing, hiking,caving and tubing -rafting down the numerous area rivers. When I first saw this property and Its seclusion I knew that this would be the place that our family would enjoy and make many memories.We are within walking distance to several caves, waterfalls and stocked trout streams as well as being able to enjoy our own 1 acre pond right in front of our cabin. Our cabin is also a short drive to many of the High Country attractions including Linville Falls, Grandfather Mountain, Mount Mitchell( Highest Elevation east of the Mississippi River), Beech and Sugar Mountain Ski Resorts and many white water rafting and ziplining excursions.

What makes this property unique

The reason I love this place is the seclusion and remoteness of this property. Although there are a few other cabins in the area ,you cant see any from our cabin. We are not in a development not subject to any rules and regulations.(Jim)
To be able to unplug and decompress in nature without WiFI/Internet (I begged Jim not to have a TV, but I lost that fight...lol) puts life back into perspective and grounds you to what`s really important in life, being one with our Creator through the amazing natural creations that we take for granted and to truly connect w/ your love ones in peace and tranquility. Plus it is a great place to write and take nature pictures!!~Diana
