About this property

Rustic Cabin, Appalachian Elegance, Rural But Close

  • As of May 23, 2020, my cabin is available for rent. I will follow CDC guidelines on cleaning, using an EPA-approved disinfectant for COVID-19 between customers. Thank you, George Stanley.

    Appalachia at its best. A mountain cabin re-created within the basement (first floor, ground level) of my home for your pleasure. Private entrance(s), covered deck/patio, open deck, great view, very private setting.

    The location has an East-West orientation, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Great place to sit, relax, and enjoy your favorite beverage.

    The cabin is fully self contained. It has its own kitchen, bath with shower (no tub), and a small living/dining area. One bedroom with a king size bed.

    Centrally located between I-40 and I-26, on Busbee Mountain, the property borders the Biltmore Estate and blends in with the Blue Ridge Parkway at an elevation of 3,346 feet. To get a real glimpse of the property, go to https://youtu.be/gd66YZ9MEsE

    Well behaved pets are more than welcome!

We loved our stay at George’s mountain cabin. The view was beautiful, and it was a joy watching the buntings and warblers from the porch. The cabin was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. The wifi speed worked fine for my husbands work. Great location for Asheville , the Biltmore, and waterfall day trips. George was a great host. We would definitely stay here again!

This cozy cabin was perfect for our Asheville weekend getaway! Close to everything we had planned, yet tucked away enough to feel completely secluded. Even cuter in person and spotless! We loved our stay.

We were very happy with our stay at George's cabin. He was a welcoming host who was always available if we needed him but never intrusive. The cabin is located high on a ridge with beautiful views in both directions, and the highlight was sitting on the porch and enjoying the view of Mt Mitchell in the distance. The road up the ridge is steep and narrow, but it is fully paved, and we had no trouble navigating it in a smaller car. We look forward to making our next visit!

Wonderful stay with great views and close proximity to the city! This is my second stay at George’s property and it’s such a nice place and a fantastic value. It’s quiet and secluded but you’ll be in the city within 15 minutes. My dog and I both enjoyed our stay and we’ll be back!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The space is well thought out, decorated in a way that provides that cabin feel to it. Clean & comfortable. Our host George was very friendly, yet allowed us space. Scenery is stunning! You'll have views both directions including the Biltmore grounds. Although it's on top of a mountain, it's less than 20 mins to town. We even got to see some bears. Highly recommend.

Be prepared for a steep drive up to the house but the views are well worth it! George greeted us a few minutes after arriving, getting to know our reason for travels and a history of his home. His cabin is super quaint with all the amenities we needed. Views on the deck are spectacular, overlooking the mountains and on a clear day you can see Mt Mitchell. Short drive to Blue Ridge Parkway and downtown Asheville. Our last day George knocked again to let us know there was a bear cub in his yard; so incredible to get that up close and personal with an amazing animal!

Such a wonderful, inviting and quaint cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The mountain views are stunning - we even got to enjoy a little dusting of snow. And then there’s George- he is such a welcoming and warm host. We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to visit again. Dale & Debbie
