Relax with the whole family at this peaceful cottage. Located just minutes away from the best hikes in the area, including Appalachian Trail, Carver's Gap, and Rhododendron Gardens. This cottage features three bedrooms plus a large loft that doubles up as the fourth bedroom. The cottage is located near the entrance to the Roan Mountain State Park, Jarrett's Apple Orchard, and historic Miller Farmstead. Watauga Lake, NC border, ski resorts, golf, and Grandfather Mountain are also nearby. Cottage is located just minutes away from the Appalachian trail, Carver's Gap, Rhodonendron Gardens, Cloudland Trail, and other hikes. It is within the Roan Mountain State Park area, just a few miles up the road past the visitor center. Rhododendron Gardens is a must visit hike during the bloom season and features the largest national collection of rhododendrons in the world. Carver's Gap (5 mile drive from the cottage), has a 10-mile stretch of bolds featuring trails where cross-country skiing and tubing are permitted in winter. You would have to bring your own equipment and there is no chairlift. The road to Carver's Gap is not plowed during winter, so you would need a 4x4 vehicle. The cottage itself is easy to access but may require a 4x4 vehicle to get up the gravel driveway during ice and snow. The cottage is also located near the historic Miller Farmstead and Jarette's Apple Orchard. We are also located within driving distance to the Grandfather Mountain, Watauga Lake, Beech Mountain ski resorts, and so much more! There is parking on the premises, but the garage is currently used for storage and is off limits for parking.
