About this property

Family Friendly Cabin @4400 Ft-Full Golf Club & Amenities Privileges

Our Wolf Laurel Cabin is the closest one to the Golf Club & only a short drive to the Amenities Club by the Gate. We are one of the few Hosts that offer a Free Temporary Membership ($250 value) to Both Clubs as well as No Pet Fee for your welcomed furry family member. More importantly, we are a Home away from Home (see Reviews). Stress just seems to jump off us as we drive through the gate. We have so many memories with our children & grands and they love the fact that it's only 200 paces to the WL Country Club (open May-Oct) and only a 50 minute drive to fun in Historic Asheville where you can check out The Biltmore, The Grove Park Inn/Spa and so many other great places (will send Albert Favorites)!

The WL Country Club offers a great golf course, casual & fine dining, wonderful Bar and Fitness Center. The Amenities Club down by the Gate offers a Heated Pool, Tennis & Pickle Ball Courts and a Fishing Pond. We will register your Family with each Club prior to your arrival which they require for admittance.
(NOTE: If you are renting at Wolf Laurel and want to use either Club make sure your Host has a Temporary Membership for you prior to arrival)

Despite being close to the club, we are secluded and love to hunker down on the outdoor porches, the fire pit or by the fireplace. During the Winter, we are one of the most accessible Cabins as all roads and the drive are paved and plowed after snow. Be aware Wolf Laurel Roads & Security "requires a 4wheel drive vehicle during hazardous weather".

The Exciting News is the Opening of the New Hatley Pointe Ski Resort within the Gates of Wolf Laurel located just beyond the Amenities Club and only an easy 5 minute drive from the Cabin. The new restaurant in the Lodge should be special.

Besides the normal stuff (golf, tennis, fitness center, pickle ball & pool), riding Mountain Trails from the WL Stables has been our favorite. We do venture outside the gate as there's so many great day trips (in addition to Asheville): Burnsville; Hot Springs; Little Switzerland (Blueridge Parkway) for lunch; and River Rafting. But the greatest amenity is beautiful Big Bald Mountain and the App Trail which is minutes away from the Cabin.

NOTE: The Amenities are open all year round. The Pool, Golf Course and Club Dining are open 5/1-10/30.

The Cabin:
On the main level, you walk into an all-white pine, vaulted ceiling open design that immediately ushers you into the mountain experience. Leather couches and chair around the fireplace is where most of the indoor relaxing is done except during March Madness when the guys camp out to watch the 60' Sony. The dining area is also beautifully furnished with two matching china cabinets and a large dining room table that seats 8-10. A fully equipped modern kitchen is bordered by a bar that seats 3 and large counter that seats 4 more. You've got nice china, serving dishes, wine glasses and cooking utensils that will accommodate a large & special dinner party. There is a powder room on the main level. A large Master is also on the main level. Elegant matching Pine Furniture and King Bed adds to the mountain flavor. My kids like to use the huge walkin closet for an extra crib or blowup bed for young children. The beautiful master bath has double sinks, a jacuzzi bath, shower and tile floor.

The lower level has two more large bedrooms with large closets. Both are beautifully furnished with queen beds. The rear bedroom also has wonderful bunk beds. A full bath is accessible to the bedrooms and den/playroom. The lower level has a computer center (with WiFi), a media center (TV/DVD/Games) with 2 couches (one a queen pullout) and a large round game table great for that late night poker game. Also on the lower level is full washer/dryer, downstair's refrigerator and all the fishing/camping and other sports equipment you'll need. You can also find a pack-n-play, highchair and stroller stored in the storage closet.

Huge porches run the full length of the upper and lower levels and provide a wonder view the 10th fairway and the mountains. On the upper porch are rocking chairs and a large teak table and seating that can accommodate 8-10 for covered outdoor dining. One other area we use a lot is the stone patio off the lower level which has a fire pit. Smores is a favorite for the grands.

Keywords: Beautifully constructed and furnished Log Home that is the closest Cabin to great dining and spectacular golf at the Wolf Laurel Country Club. Don't golf? Then you may enjoy taking advantage of amenities package that goes with the Cabin including Pool; Trout Pond; Tennis; Pickle Ball; Rustic Playground & Pavilion. But once you get inside this quiet retreat, you'll probably just want to enjoy it's beauty and restful quiet. For the hiker, don't forget that the App Trail is a quick walk away.

Great 4th of July
Terrific experience for me and my family, who were looking to beat the heat during the 4th of July weekend. Access to Wolf Laurel Country Club as part of the rental really clinched it. Beautiful views, comfortable space, and real relief from the 100 degree temperatures back home. Communication from the owner was excellent, as were the recommendations for activities. Would definitely stay there again.

Awesome cabin
LOVED this cabin! Beautiful, clean, well stocked with things you might need during your stay. The kitchen was very well equipped for our Thanksgiving family get together. We took long walks enjoying the scenery and sunrises/sunsets. We played games with the warm and cozy fireplace on. We are all talking about meeting back at this cabin in the spring! Highly recommended. ❤️

Wonderful week in North Carolina mountains.
Our family had a great week at the cabin. It was very well equipped and the right size for our family. The decks were very relaxing with a wonderful breeze even in mid July. We made multiple trips to Asheville to visit Biltmore and breweries and also had some great food. The host was very responsive any needs we had. I highly recommend staying at this property.

Quick weekend vacation.
We had a great time! Deer were everywhere and kids loved watching them. Went horseback riding which was a lot of fun for entire family. Son and I played golf and it was a beautiful golf course. It’s a wonderful place to go and unplug as not very good signal unless at the house which was fabulous. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to get away.

Felt like home away from home.
Great cabin in a great location. This was our first trip to the mountains. We found the cabin to be comfortable, inviting, and well stocked. During our stay we ventured out and went horseback riding, hiked to waterfalls, and hiked up to Big Bald Mountain driving to the parking area from right within Wolf Laurel. The host and property manager were very responsive. We felt comfortable and safe and hope to rent again in the future.

Fabulous Fall Getaway
Overall, we were so impressed with everything this cabin brought us, and enjoyed every minute. Comfortable, well-appointed. Marvelous views, both from back upper deck, whether the immediate 10th hole tee box from golf course, sunsets and mountains displaying Nature’s beauty. Comfy beds, living room and dining room furniture, deck chairs. Access to some of the best hiking in the High country, fabulous golf course albeit very challenging! We are so grateful to have the opportunity to come to such a special place; thank you!!

Family vacation
This home was perfect for our vacation with family and pets. We played golfed, hiked, fished and enjoyed Asheville. John was great to work with, we felt so welcomed in his home when we read his note and saw the bottle of wine. I would recommend this home for the next family vacation.

Great cabin
We loved the cabin and really appreciated the little things like having a bottle of wine and a note waiting for us. Also loved that they had things like toilet paper, trash bags, etc already there. The cabin was perfect for our family. The only thing we had trouble with was the front gate having a different address than we did for the cabin. It was very strange. We would love to come back sometime soon!

Great Property for Families
We absolutely loved our stay at this property! First off, it was perfect for 2 families with 3 small children to stay in. There were plenty of children’s toys there to keep the little ones occupied while we adults enjoyed good conversation. Second, the view was stunning! There was a nice view from the back deck, and the sunsets from the 10th tee (a very short walk away) were spectacular! Third, the owner was great to work with - very quick responses via email!! Also, the bottle of wine left for us was a very welcoming touch! Overall, we felt at home and very comfortable at the property, and if we are ever in the area again, I would certainly stay here. If you are even considering staying here, got for it - you will not regret it!!

Perfect mountain home retreat. Quintessential ideal large cabin in the woods.
The home was spacious with plenty of room to spread out and have your own corners or gather together in the common spaces. Perfect location on the mountain. A short drive to a few hiking areas including the Appalachian trail. If you want to get away and relax (with WiFi) then book this place now. We have 3 kids under 6 and it was kid proofed and kid welcoming with plenty of toys, games, puzzles, and a whirlpool tub for all 3.

Perfect family getaway!
Our family evacuated from the coast due to Hurricane Florence. The Wolf Laurel community including Mars Hill was the absolute perfect choice. 3 and 8 year old girls could hike the AT with us basically right down the road. We also hiked the 2 mile AT at Sams Gap which was challenging (used the backpack from the cabin for the 3 year old). Ate great food at Stackhouse and Papa Nicks in Mars Hill! Toured New Belgium, Wicked Weed, Wedge, Sierra Nevada breweries with the kids in tow. Asheville is about a 20 minute ride down I-26 and the absolutely stunning scenery of the rolling mountains surrounding the area was endless! For an ad hoc Hurricane vacay, this was by far the BEST experience EVER. The Alberts take great care of their investment and it shows. They took a sincere interest in our well being and were genuinely concerned for our little family while we waited for news on how our home fared during the week we were staying. We will be back!! Memories like we made are precious and would not have been possible without the Albert family. God bless them.

Beautiful Cabin!
This is the 2nd time we stay in this cabin and it didn't disappoint. We love the cabin, the location and everything about it. We spent much of our time in the cabin because it was just so cold outside. We love it and the kids love it also. The owner, John, is very pleasant and accommodating. We definitely will stay again.

About the host

Hosted by John Albert

Host profile image
Fell in Love with my college sweetheart in 1965 and we have been married in 1968 (you do the math). Raised 4 children (all married now-9 grands) on the water in Savannah, GA. We love the coast but over the past 18 years we've come to know the peace and beauty of the Mountains-particularily at Wolf Laurel/Big Bald Mountain. We purchased the Cabin in 2006 and then a house on the other side of the Mountain in 2011 (MiMi got tired of picking up after the boys)! We also love being so close to the Club! Our children and grands have made so many memories here its hard to count.

Why they chose this property

Great for the Grands and Close to everything that is happening at Wolf Laurel. Kids & Grands have grown up here & all attended Mountain Camp.

What makes this property unique

Love sitting by the fire, wine on the porches and cooking smores at the fire pit.
