Welcome to “Awesomeness Outpost” - your private mountain retreat with long range views, a peaceful outdoor area, and a cabin atmosphere located in southwestern North Carolina. If you’re looking for vintage cabin charm just minutes away from world class mountain biking, hiking, waterfalls, golf, trout fishing, and quaint downtown Brevard, then this is it!
This home has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, sleeps 6 (1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Twins), and is located in the gated resort community of Connestee Falls. Within 1 mile of the cabin, you can access a beautiful mountain golf course, clubhouse with two restaurants, four non-motorized lakes perfect for kayaking & fishing, olympic-sized heated pool (during pool season), tennis, pickleball, 13 miles of hiking trails, and a wellness center.
The cabin includes an inviting main level with updated kitchen and wood stove, open loft with mountain views, spacious casual basement with a bar, and a private outdoor area with fire pit, two decks, and a charcoal grill. The king and queen bedrooms are located on the main floor along with a full bath and washer/dryer. The open loft features two twin beds, half bath, and desk. The basement includes a flat screen smart TV with casual living area, full bathroom and plenty of space for relaxing.
**IMPORTANT NOTE** the basement steps are steep so please keep this in mind if you have mobility issues; there is a hand rail and the stairs have carpet on them; also the basement is significantly cooler than the rest of the house; we have blankets and a heater to keep you warm during cooler months and its a perfect hangout during warmer months. We do not want this to affect our reviews or ratings.
Additionally, this cabin is mountain biker friendly and includes a workshop containing all the tools needed to wash or repair your ride after a long day shredding the local trails.
You’ll be minutes away from DuPont State Forest, Pisgah National Forest, Caesar’s Head State Park, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Downtown Brevard is a short drive away with restaurants, shops, breweries, festivals, and more. Downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate are within an hour drive.
Community amenities included at no additional fee - clubhouse access, lake, pool, tennis, pickleball, and hiking (golf and wellness center usage fees required). The rental fee also includes 2 stand up paddle boards and two kayaks that can be accessed from the lake located within a mile of the house.
Cabin amenities include free high-speed wifi, HD smart television, wood stove, charcoal grill, washer/dryer, linens/towels, fire pit (will restrict use if we have fire danger conditions or drought), hammock, and more!
Cell service is spotty but our internet service is very fast; we recommend turning on WiFi calling so you can still receive calls. Again, we do not want the lack of cell service to affect our ratings and reviews, so please take this into consideration when booking our house; the internet is very fast and will support device streaming and video calls. The house has no land line phone.
The cabin's driveway is flat, but narrow ; we can fit up to 3 cars but not side by side. The driveway is gravel and not paved.
Our house is located on a mountain community; there are a lot of hills (some very steep) and the street where our house is located is not suited for walking/jogging; we have walking paths and trails for these activities but one will have to drive to get to these areas.
