You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Open, cozy studio apartment getaway!

A studio/efficiency apartment with lots of natural light on the lower level of a recently built house in the beautiful, peaceful mountains of Western NC. It has one main/great room and a separate bathroom. Plus an outdoor patio that's a good spot to chill or eat dinner during good weather. In short, it's a great getaway that's still within 15-40 minutes of much to do. The area is filled with talented artisans of all kinds.

The community (High Cove) is equidistant from Bakersville, Burnsville and Spruce Pine, NC, each within 20 minutes. It's also convenient to Penland School of Craft (15 minutes), and about 40 minutes from Mount Mitchell, the highest point east of the Mississippi. Spending a day in Asheville is also an option. It's a very tourist friendly town with shopping, restaurants, music, art, and more. Downtown Asheville is an hour away.

Guest access: the apartment is self contained with an entirely separate entrance. Other than (perhaps) sharing the washer/dryer in the utility room, the space is all yours.

PLEASE NOTE: we are located on wooded land with extensive hiking trails. Getting to the house requires traveling on a gravel road for about 2/10ths of a mile that is steep in spots. All the easier if you have an all-wheel drive vehicle.
During your stay at this apartment building, you'll be close to Penland School of Crafts. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the apartment.
  • Air-conditioned apartment with kitchen, washing machine, and patio
  • Free WiFi

A real get away
This was a nice place for getting away and unwinding. Like everything in the Smoky Mountains, the route there is windy and curvy. But it’s a quiet small neighborhood once you arrive.

Cozy place, centrally located to great outdoor activities!
Kevin was a fantastic and hospitable host. He made me feel welcome amongst his friends and spent time conversing with me about himself. The location was beautiful and central to many hikes I had planned; Carvers Gap, Mt Mitchell and Linville Gorge. The studio apartment itself was everything I needed, a nice bed, warm shower and full kitchen. I would definitely come back!

Wonderful place
This was perfect for my needs. Kevin made the place very homey and the land was magical. As beautiful as the rain forests of Costa Rica.

Great for one person or a couple.
Host (Kevin) was nice and very helpful. The property is one well-equipped room on the ground floor with with a galley kitchen and a nice bathroom with a shower. Amenities include on demand hot water, great water pressure, and a washer/ dryer. There is no TV, but wifi is fast and reliable. The property is located in an artist’s community called High Cove which is nestled among beautiful rolling hills. Penland is 15 minutes away. I enjoyed my stay.
