Located within the private Grants Mountain community, this pet-friendly log cabin offers a peaceful, private setting and boasts beautiful mountain views along with a fire pit & gas grill to enjoy! Thoughtfully designed with memory-making in mind, this single-level cabin with 3 en-suite bedrooms is sure to be a family favorite for years to come. A chef's kitchen with eat-in dining for 6 overlooks a spacious living room with a 55" Smart TV with streaming, a gas log fireplace, and a dedicated desk space that is a remote worker's dream!
The private, covered back deck boasts unobstructed, year-round mountain views, outdoor dining, a gas grill, and two porch swings. Steps away from the porch, also overlooking the view, is a wood-burning fire pit. The primary bedroom offers a king-size bed, a 36" television, and an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The two additional bedrooms each offer a queen-size bed and en suite bath: one with a 36" television and luxury walk-in shower and the other with a shower/tub combo.
Mountain Crest is located in the quaint town of Marion within the private Grants Mountain community, offering endless natural beauty along with the convenience of being 15 minutes from downtown Marion, I-40, and a Walmart Supercenter. When exploring downtown Marion, be sure to stop into the new 310 District, an indoor shopping space that's home to Marion Wing Factory, Toonez Chop House, Marion Hot Wheelz indoor skating rink, Chances of Sprinkles Bakery, and several retail shops.
Take a 25-minute drive the reach the neighboring town of Old Fort. Known as the “Gateway to the Blue Ridge,” Old Fort sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is surrounded by lush forests and a diverse wildlife community. Andrew's Geyser, Catawba Falls, and Point Lookout Trail are among some of the oldest and most celebrated outdoor attractions in Old Fort. After exploring the great outdoors, pop into local favorite Hillman Beer in the middle of downtown to reward yourself with a savory burger and cold brew while taking in the gorgeous river views.
Mountain Crest is a 35-minute drive from the “Simply Charming” town of Morganton where you can find even more shops, regional museums, and art galleries where you can pick up a souvenir to remind you of your time in the mountains. You'll also find even more delicious dining and drink options in Morganton like Root and Vine, Treat, Catawba Brewing Company, and the original Fonta Flora taproom. For the wine lovers in the group, take time to visit local wineries like South Creek, Silver Fork, and Perry's Berry's Vineyard, all within 25 miles away.
In the evening, return to Marion to enjoy some nightlife at Mica Town Brewing Company and Spillway Bridge & Co. For lake enthusiasts, this home is around 35 minutes from Lake James, where you can spend your days sunbathing, swimming, and boating. For hiking enthusiasts, this home is about an hour's drive from the "gorge"-ous Linville Gorge Wilderness area and iconic Blue Ridge Parkway, which offers plenty of overlooks and hiking opportunities to choose from.
Don't forget that no trip to the mountains of Western North Carolina is complete without experiencing the "Land of Sky," Asheville, located just 45 minutes away. While there, be sure to check out the hip and artsy West Asheville district, North Carolina Arboretum, and America's Largest Home, the Biltmore Estate. Asheville is also home to an impressive number of award-winning restaurants and breweries that you can sample in between all your activities. Return home after a full day of activities to unwind around the outdoor fire pit with s'mores while you discuss all of the adventures you'll embark on tomorrow. Grants Mountain is a designated IDA (International Dark Sky Community), so you'll be able to stargaze to your heart's content on clear nights!
