1850s log cabin 1 mile to downtown Weaverville 15% discount 7 days or more

DISCOUNT FOR LONG TERM STAYS: For guests looking for accommodations while their residence is being repaired, we have reduced our per nightly rate to $125 plus a 15% discount for 7 or more nights. Our cabin was not damged during Helene, plus the power, water and internet has been fully restored as of October 20. The property consists of the mid-1800s Marion Frisbee log cabin (for guests),
the 1820s Moore log house (owners private home), summer house/gazebo and
gardens. The log structures were disassembled and reconstructed in 1986/1987.
The frame section of the Marion Frisbee cabin was remodeled in 2019/2020 with
the addition of all new appliances air, heating and an all new bathroom with a
walk-in shower. Mostly, antique country furniture from the early 1800s (some
locally made) has been used to furnish the cabin. Our guests have the privilege
(8:00 am to sundown) of using our rustic summer house/gazebo behind our house and may enjoy the gardens by the many short paths. The combination of native wildflowers, roses, scrubs, vegetables, herbs, dry stacked traditional rock
walls, etc. makes for colorful changing scenery from early spring thru fall.

The Marion Frisbee cabin is 1 mile from the center of Weaverville, 8 miles from
Downtown Asheville, 10 miles from the Biltmore Estate, 35 miles from Mount Mitchell State Park. Information about Weaverville/North Buncombe County area for dining, groceries store, rafting/kayaking, day hikes, fishing will be available in the cabin.

We had a wonderful time staying at this cabin. It is close to dear friends and we could easily get into Asheville without any trouble. After a very tiring time from a death in the family the week before, we had the opportunity to slow down and rest. Sitting on the front porch or inside the living room was so peaceful and a balm for weary souls. We will be back!!!

Delightful cabin! Very convenient.

We rented this cabin because we love old homes and to be within 5” of our daughter and her partner who live locally. It’s beautifully decorated with many interesting pieces, probably the best stocked kitchen I’ve stayed in across dozens and dozens of rentals. Helpful , kind hosts. Excellent stay. Will definitely be back to see the gardens in bloom.

We loved the flower gardens and the historic log cabin property. This property exceeded our expectations. The owner provides all the necessities and more. Lots of recommendations for hiking and activities from the owner. The town has excellent restaurants and Asheville so a short drive away. We would highly recommend this property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our second visit to the little log cabin in Weaverville. Just as before, the home is very comfortable, well stocked and super clean. It is the perfect size for two people and a little dog. The owners are very welcoming and strive to please. We look forward to returning next year.

Perfect Thanksgiving Getaway!

This adorable log cabin exceeded our expectations. Very peaceful and quiet with close proximity to lots of hiking, restaurants and breweries in Weaverville and Asheville. Our puppy loved exploring the grounds and going on adventures all weekend. The Glass Onion is located in downtown Weaverville and was one of the best meals we had the entire trip. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back again!
