Welcome to the Mothership, an octagonal post and beam cottage built for those with a love of the outdoors. Located on our small farm in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, we are a perfect launching point for adventure. Lake James and the Linville Gorge are only 20 minutes away, Asheville 45 minutes, and Charlotte only an hour. Explore countless waterfalls, miles of trails, or kayak our beautiful rivers during the day, and relax in the hot tub and shoot pool in the evening. The space The Mothership is located on our 15 acre organic homestead. We raise sheep, goats, and horses. Guests are welcome to meet the critters and pick berries in season. Guest access There is a dedicated parking area for guests. Just come up Idle Acres drive and follow the driveway as it turns to gravel. The mothership will be on the left. If you arrive at night just follow the solar lights. Other things to note We encourage people to explore the farm, but please do not feed the animals without asking us first. Thanks!
