Tucked away in the mountains of western North Carolina, and only 1.2 miles from the renowned John C. Campbell Folk School, our recently updated guest house suite is awaiting your arrival.

We primarily cater to students taking classes at the Folk School, but others are welcome as well to enjoy this beautiful area.

This approximately 600 square foot guest house is a separate unit with its own key-less entry and total privacy. Thoughtfully designed and decorated to be a relaxing retreat, our guest house has two new cozy twin beds, adorned with colorful quilts, which invite you to sink into a deep and peaceful slumber. The new pull-out sofa offers comfort for lounging and can also be utilized as a queen-size bed.

The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking and the brand new granite countertops add an extra touch of elegance for your enjoyment. The dining area is just off the kitchen or enjoy eating al fresco. The quaint patio is the perfect spot to enjoy a meal or sip a cup of tea, while immersing yourself in the magic of the surroundings or letting your creative spirit soar.

Towels and essential toiletries are provided, ensuring your comfort and convenience during your stay. Enjoy our pure mountain water, free from chlorine and fluoride, by the glass or in the shower.

Quiet Oasis
This cottage is perfect for a quiet get away. The owners are delightful and they communicated driving directions and the check in process exceptionally well. I loved getting away from it all as the cottage did not have a TV or internet. Phone service was perfect, though. If you are taking a class at the John C. Campbell Folk School, this cottage is only a five minute drive and an adorable find. The cottage was spotless, seemed newly renovated, and the kitchen was well stocked. Would absolutely come back.

Great little cabin on the mountain.
5. You have a beautiful little cabin and a great deal for the price. I loved sitting and looking out at the woods and trees. The cabin in so clean and fresh I thought it was a brand new construction. The location was ideal for all kinds of field trips durning the day. Thank you for such a treasure.

Great feng shui, a perfect stay!
I will begin by mentioning that the pictures do not do justice for this property. The owner has taken great care to assure that each guest has everything they need. There are numerous extras that are quite generous in nature. Whether it be snacks or just special little details. The guesthouse is well appointed with very thoughtful furnishings. The mattresses are high-quality and very comfortable. I appreciated the wonderful soft cotton sheets. I usually find that microfiber sheets are the norm when I stay at other places. The towels are large, fluffy, and the water tastes, sweet and pure. The majority of the guesthouse is covered in windows that look out onto a serene, natural setting. The walls are decorated with beautiful quilts crafted by the owner. it is quite clear that this owner takes Guest comfort and happiness. very seriously. If I hadn’t known otherwise, I would have sworn I was the first to stay here. The check-in process was seamless and easy. The host is friendly, helpful , and was quick to assist when I was unable to use the electronic door code. The guesthouse sits a top a small mountain, the drive up is not difficult. Parking is a breeze on this property. There are only the two small porch steps and a short walk from your vehicle to the front door. This guest house is located in a convenient spot for those that might attend The John C Campbell Folk School. There is even a walking trail if you prefer not to drive to the camp. I recommend renting here!
