Read More...Our expectations were far exceeded in this relaxing and beautiful mountain retreat. Diane and Jon wrote the book on hospitality meeting us for lunch, updating us on fun activities happening in the area (we attended a 6 piece brass ensemble concert thanks to them) - they spoiled us! The property is so beautifully appointed and comfortable. There were great books to read, fun movies to watch, rocking chairs to rock, and all the nature one could ask for! Thank you, Diane and Jon for a wonderful exchange! Let's do it again!

Read More...We had an amazing weekend at Diane´s mountain house! The house is is cozy and comfy, with beautiful views everywhere. We played and fished in the river, hiked nearby Mount Mitchell and explored the area. It was so nice to get back after the adventures to the warm, cozy house--we especially enjoyed the big soaking tub downstairs and the extensive collection of movies to watch! The kitchen had everything we needed to make lots of coffee, a big pot of soup, popcorn and more. If you are looking for picture perfect mountain getaway, this is it!

Beskrivelse av hjemmet vi tilbyr å bytte bort
Lovely mountain vacation home alongside the trout-filled South Toe River and a pleasant valley with a view of the Black Mountains, near Mt. Mitchell, highest peak east of the Mississippi River. The property includes a wooded walk down to a riverside deck, swings and a riverside hammock. We are close to many nature trails in the nearby state and national forests, as well as studios of several local artisans, including potters, glassblowers and other artists. Within 30 minutes' drive of the famous Penland School of Crafts. Only 8 miles north of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Approx. 20 miles from Mt. Mitchell State Park. Groceries and other stores in two nearby towns: Burnsville and Spruce Pine. Asheville is about 1.25 hours by car via the BRP. This is a quiet area of natural beauty, not a crowded tourist area. The main level is wheelchair accessible and includes kitchen, living room, bathroom, two bedrooms and the deck. The southern exposure is all windows with nice views of the river and mountains. The lower level includes full windows across the main wall, double bed, Jacuzzi, full bath, wood stove, sitting area and double sofa bed. WIFI included. No land line but good cell coverage.

Beskrivelse av vårt nabolag og området rundt
We are across the river and within a mile of the famous Celo Community, founded by Quakers in the 1920s and now home to many artists, artisans and organic farmers. From our house one can see Mt. Mitchell and many other peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We are surrounded by many scenic roads, including the Blue Ridge Parkway and NC Highway 80. Sully Lane is a private road with single family homes, all but six of which are vacation homes.
