Description of the Bakersville vacation house rental

Secluded mountain home at 3800 ft elevation in a hollow on 60 acres. It's cool here when it's roasting in the Piedmont. Things to do without getting in your car: hike to the mountain top, climb on big-as-a-house rock formations, bicycle down the road. Pet my chickens and get eggs, fish in the pond, pick blueberries, sit in the sun listening to song birds. Sit by mossy rocks next to a babbling creek and read (or play in the creeks). Relax on the deck with a glass of wine watching the sun set over the mountains. Look for deer and wild turkeys. Take a professionally guided photography tour. 15 minutes away: gallery hop, stroll the creek walk in B'ville, go rafting, have lunch at Dot's Café. 20-30 minutes away: drive the Blue Ridge Parkway & other scenic drives, go gem mining, hike the Appalachian Trail, visit Penland Gallery, TRAC Gallery, & artist studios, go golfing. Have dinner at Downtown Danny’s. What you can’t do: easily connect to work and other people you need a vacation from!

Further details for this vacation house rental in Bakersville, North Carolina

Land details: This land was once the property of the Ward family, 8th generation farmers, mine and sawmill workers. The primary crop was corn, they also raised pigs and cattle. The remnants of foundations and chimneys of two houses can be seen on the land. Linzey Ward (82) and his wife Rexy(80) still live in a house right outside our gate that Linzey's father built in 1919. They still pipe their water from a spring in the woods near the guest house whose source is at the base of a tree. The area has long since been sold and the mountain surrounding the land which was once cleared to the top of the ridge has now gone back to nature. In the tree stand to the left is a large old soapstone rock that shows the carvings of bowls estimated to be about 3000 years old. This area is known for it's soapstone and huge rock formations (just ask my mower.) Deer, birds, wild turkeys, barred owls, hawks and foxes are among the wildlife that may be seen.

Other Activities: The Biltmore Estate in Asheville, Linville Falls, Grandfather Mtn,
