Wild turkeys visit. So do herons, ducks, Canada geese, deer, rabbits, possums, woodpeckers, raccoons, groundhogs, muskrats, and hummingbirds… for starters. So join ‘em! Leave the real world insanity behind for a getaway to Angel Mountain Cabin, nestled in the woods with a view that merely hints of Ashe County magic. You’ll quickly see why the critters keep coming back!

Walk to the New River State Park and its maintained trails or down the nearby country road to the river itself. Hike the on-site trails to the top of Angel Mountain and feed the fish in the two ponds on the premises (just ignore their claims that they haven’t been fed lately). Or do nothing. And then take a nap.

It may not feel quite like spring all the time yet, but it’s here!

Bee-friendly 'something'

~ Latest Bzzzzzz ~

: Some of the new bee kids!

We’re happy to announce a bonus treat for guests this year!
Because we’re beekeepers now, our new home-away-from-home is The Honey Hole,
a unique shop in West Jefferson that caters not only to beekeepers,
but also to those who appreciate quality products -
honey, soaps, candles, body-pampering products, teas, and so much more!
In addition to the shop’s divine sensory appeal, the indoor observation hive is fascinating,
and when the weather warms up, the hot dog stand will be back in action on Saturdays!
All our cabineers who have been to The Honey Hole have issued big thumbs up.

So, anyway…
For a 2-night stay, cabineers will receive a $10 gift certificate to The Honey Hole.
For a 3-night stay, cabineers will receive a $15 gift certificate to The Honey Hole.
For longer stays, we’ll definitely be showing our appreciation for those as well!

AND…
For those who would like (or need) to stay connected to the real world during their escape,
the cabin now has WiFi!

And… the new fiber optic hook-up should keep TV reception disruptions to a minimum!

There’s still chocolate, too, of course.

So what are you waiting for… blueberries?
