This enchanting Cabin and Guesthouse nestled in the trees overlook a roaring stream and the storybook hamlet of Cattail Creek.

Less than an hour drive from downtown Asheville and less than 20 minutes from downtown Burnsville, the property feels a world away from the stress of everyday life while maintaining modern needs w/ high speed fiber internet. The main cabin offers an open floorplan w/ vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, large living area with woodstove & natural stone surround, and a spacious kitchen & dining area w/ double doors to a large wraparound deck w/ mountain & creek views. The generous bedroom w/ ensuite bathroom opens onto a screened porch w/ sounds of the creek lulling you to sleep. The room allows for a king size bed and desk area along w/ 2 closets, one a walk-in that has been used as a kid sleeping nook. A stone path meanders from the main cabin past covered wood storage to the Bunkhouse w/ it's own large deck providng an additional bedroom/bathroom for guests or studio/flex space. The cabin's lower level contains the laundry room and plenty of additional storage/work/flex space. This is a true oasis for nature lovers, immersed in the sounds of water and woods w/ plentiful hiking trails nearby.
