Nature's Beauty
Nature Experience
Our cabins are a fantastic place to experience the mountains and wildlife, as you do not even have to leave our property to get a taste!
We are open year around, allowing our guests to experience all seasons from the cool budding spring to the beautiful rainbow of colors during fall or the warm sunny weather of summer to the white blanket of winter snow.
Hiking High and Low
Reach the pinnacle of Chimney Rock State Park on the Skyline Trail, which brings you to the natural rock formations, Devil’s Head and Exclamation Point. From this vantage you can see 75-mile views of Hickory Nut Gorge, including idyllic Lake Lure. Kids will enjoy the Great Woodland Adventure trail, featuring sculptures and 12 “discovery stations” along the way. The 404-foot Hickory Nut Falls, featured in the movie The Last of the Mohicans, is accessible by an easy 1.5-mile hike on a wooded trail.
