A whole house instead of a motel room, Wow! Great for a couple, 2 friends, or parent-child catch-up. Enjoy deck with gazebo that feels like a treehouse above mountain stream, fast wi-fi, TV, wood interior, kitchen, full bath, plus an outdoor hot/cold shower too! Two bedrooms, 2 swings, fire pit, and Japanese garden. Nestled in a valley, above a creek, just below Deep Gap on the Black Mountain Ridge Crest Trail that leads to Mount Mitchell, tallest mountain east of the Rockies. Update: Nature has healed us after Hurricane Helene hit our area September 28, 2024. Roads are good. We are up high, but water from the road turned creeks into rivers. A regular car can get to the Fox Den, no problem as roads are paved right to our driveway. We worked hard for 7 months, and reopened in April 2025. Some things are even better than before! This is a real getaway space, great for relaxing and being with the ones you love. Burnsville restaurants and stores are 11 miles away. Nearby are crafts, live music, gifts and groceries, hiking trails and rivers. 45 miles from Asheville with its tourist attractions when you want a city. Lounge and dine on the deck in the gazebo, enjoy the fun bedrooms, and listen to the mountain stream down below. Privacy and nature are the plan. Take a deep breath. Restore. Refresh. Relax. Guest access You have the entire home all to yourselves, with kitchen, full bath with shower, 2 bedrooms, (maximum 2 persons total), deck with gazebo, stone patio, plus 2 swings under the house, extra outdoor hot/cold water shower, fire pit, and Japanese style garden. Area has nice 4 to 20 minute walks along the creek with small waterfalls, right from Fox Den, or hike 2 hours up to Deep Gap right up the hill, or 6 hour hike to Mount Mitchell (leave a car there), Burnsville, Asheville, the Blue Ridge Parkway, groceries, theater, restaurants, live music, arts and craft studios and stores. Interaction with guests: You are on your own, and I can be reached easily. Self check-in and out. Other things to note: This is a fun, cozy mountain cottage. The interior is all wood floors and walls, a living/dining room, with three additional dining areas outside. You have the whole place all to yourselves with your own kitchen, indoor full bathroom and an extra outdoor hot/cold shower (in season), 2 bedrooms, living room, large deck with gazebo. Under the cottage are two swings also for your private use. The well water here is different from city water. It is rich in minerals and has a high iron content. It is clean and safe, but most people prefer bottled drinking water. We provide a jug of drinking water. Welcome to the mountains! \*\*Sorry, Pets are currently Not Allowed due to some bad experiences recently. Sneaking in a pet results in a $100 fine. Sorry to have to do this. You will be in the area of one of the country's premier artist studio tours. The artists can be contacted from list. In case you are interested. You will find arts/crafts categories and maps to the studios. Search: Toe River Arts Council, TRAC Studio Tour REVIEWS Amazing hospitality and great place for a mountain get-away! -Samuel April 2019 Ron was very courteous and responsive. Cabin would be a great base for hiking in the Mt Mitchell area. -James April 2019 Very sweet spot! We were there in the winter and stayed very warm! Gorgeous location, just a short drive away from a nearby town with coffee shops, groceries, fly fishing shops, etc. I’d definitely return! - Kate Our stay was absolutely wonderful. Such a beautiful place in the mountains. My family and I enjoyed every second at the Fox den. We had campfires and told spooky stories and went hiking to several waterfalls. We drove into Asheville which is only an hour away and had a fun time looking through all the shops. We will definitely be back! -Sarah October 2018 ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Ski - Close to skiing ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Wheelchair-accessible parking and van parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Accessible parking space - In-room accessibility - No lift - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Wheelchair-accessible van parking - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Phone ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 925 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78460000/78459700/78459693/64f09331.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Cabin: Peaceful Haven in the Heart of Nature Green Mountain - Water view 8.8 Excellent 8 reviews £81 includes taxes & fees 23 Oct - 24 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-25&endDate=2025-10-24&selected=78459693&PinnedHotelID=78459693&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70590000/70586700/70586664/b58c2782.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mountain Cabin w/ Hot Tub & Cozy Loft Cattail Creek - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 69 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-25&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=70586664&PinnedHotelID=70586664&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92460000/92450800/92450703/w907h683x59y0-dde099c0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Zen Dome: Relax & Revive in the Beauty of Nature Green Mountain 9.2 Wonderful 7 reviews £72 includes taxes & fees 20 Oct - 21 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=92450703&PinnedHotelID=92450703&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107510000/107508500/107508477/9da01a28.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful log cabin with AC and WiFi in gorgeous Burnsville.
