Dupont Forest Trailside Cabin

NEW UPDATES FOR 2025:

***The cabin now has fast and effective Wifi through Starlink!
***There is no longer a caretaker on the property so guests will have the entire property to themselves!

This spacious log home sits on a wooded and private 5 acre lot next to Dupont State Forest. It is only a 1/2 mile to the closest trailhead in the 10,000+ acre recreation area. Dupont is famous for its incredible waterfalls, swimming holes, and 90 miles of trails. Whether on foot or mountain bike, you can explore Dupont's trails easily from this comfortable and cozy cabin home. After your day outside you can relax on one of the covered porches and enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains that awaits you.
This 3 bedroom home has newly remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen is fully stocked with the essentials for cooking your meals while you stay. The cabin is great for large groups or families and can sleep up to 9, with 1 double bed, 1 queen 1 king sized bed, and a double and single futon in the living room. And it is also perfect for a romantic getaway for 2, as it is comfortable and private.
The home sits directly in between the two mountain towns of Brevard and Hendersonville NC. Each just a 20 minute drive away. Asheville is a 45 minute drive, so close enough to enjoy as well. Brevard and Hendersonville both offer excellent dining options, galleries, shopping, and breweries in cute small town settings.
Pisgah National Forest is just 15 minutes away if you fee the urge to explore the trails outside of Dupont. And Pisgah boasts more beautiful waterfalls and amazing hiking/biking trails.
So if you want to get away for a vacation in the mountains of western North Carolina, this house will allow you to enjoy easy access to outdoor recreation. As well as put you very close to Asheville, Brevard, and Hendersonville if you want to get out on the town during your stay. You will also be a very very a short drive from many of the areas breweries- Oskar Blues (12 minutes), Sierra Nevada (35 minutes), and many more in Brevard, Hendersonville, and Asheville.
And just a 30 minute drive from Henderson County's wine country where you can taste locally made wines at these vineyards: Burntshirt, Point Lookout, St. Paul Mountain, Marked Tree.

Wonderful property for weekend stay near Dupont Forest. Fully furnished, very comfortable, host is great communicator. Log cabin home is absolutely beautiful and has everything our family of mixed ages needed, including outdoor activities for fire pit, corn hole, and trail hike. Home is located within minutes of all activities we came for—horses, waterfalls, orchard and downtown areas.

Great Home Base For Mountain Fun

This cabin is well stocked making it easy to cook. There are hiking trails on the property which the little kids love. Plenty of room to let them run around and explore. The neighbors are a horse farm which makes for a nice evening stroll to look at the horses. Location is perfect especially if MTBing. We were riding the Ridgeline loop from the cabin. All of the DuPont access points are a very short drive. The entrance to Pisgah is a 15-20 minute drive.
