Hickory Creek Hideaway - A cozy mountain cabin

Rustic and fully renovated 1910 log cabin on almost an acre w/ peaceful babbling creek just outside our back door. Bring the whole family to Hickory Creek Hideaway! Plenty of room to spread out inside & out. This charming cabin & property is perfect for families, romantic getaways, or just a quick escape to the mountains. Located 25 mins from Asheville & a quick few mins drive to popular Conserving Carolina hiking trails, Chimney Rock & beautiful Lake Lure, this adorable cabin is the perfect location to enjoy all of gorgeous WNC!

Our family bought this cabin to share the mountains & all of the many hiking & biking trails it has to offer with our family and friends! The first floor has a large living room w/ original wood burning fireplace, kitchen w/ table for 8+, bedroom w/ king bed that shares a full bath w/ a queen bedroom. There is a centrally located 1/2 bath and a full washer/dryer just off the shared bath. The main level also boasts a cool bar and rec room w/ air hockey table, dartboard and a vintage record player w/ plenty of vinyl to entertain many musical tastes. When you come up the stairs, you'll find a large room w/ a queen bed, twin bed & another twin (day) bed w/ a full bathroom. Decorated with lots of local art & comfy decor, we hope you feel right at home in our space. The kitchen is fully stocked for plenty of cooking, along with a new outdoor gas bbq grill. The back yard with a fire pit and flagstone patio w/ table for 8 sits right next to Hickory Creek under a canopy of trees & is the perfect place to relax and take in the sounds of nature! The patio also provides a perfect view of the northeast sky for nighttime stargazing. You'll also enjoy the delicious spring-fed water and cooler summers w/ few mosquitos at 2700 feet elevation! As the name says, meander down the trail and over the bridge to find a special hideaway spot at the back of the property. If you're feeling adventurous, bring your tent and camp out under the stars next to the creek! A hammock is provided & hooks are just past the bridge on the right to enjoy relaxing by the stream. For our artistic, creative & imaginative guests, our property also has an original Fairy Garden, where it has been said many fairies visit regularly.
We provide a bundle of firewood with some fire starter sticks as our gift to you to use indoors or at the outdoor fire pit.
Thanks for visiting! We hope you feel relaxed & at home & make many lasting memories at Hickory Creek Hideaway!

The Perfect Meet up Spot

My husband and I met up with long time friends in Asheville and found Hickory Creek Hideaway. This is a very cozy, welcoming house. One couple downstairs, one couple upstairs. Plenty of space and privacy. The backyard was incredible - a private oasis. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would ever need. Would definitely recommend this location.

Bearwallow Mountain

From Florida, so spending a week in the mountains was a gift from heaven. Hickory Creek Hideaway was the perfect location to "chill out". The house was completely accommodating in every respect and conveniently located between Lake Lure/Chimney Rock and Asheville. We went out for adventures every day and enjoyed cool evenings by the fire pit on the patio above the creek. My Grandchildren enjoyed playing in the creek and exploring along the wooded path. They checked the fairy village daily for activity. Wonderful stay!!

Summer vacation

Property was exactly as pictured and very clean. Easy to get in contact with owner. Even though it is out of the way, we were kept entertained in the game room, played the records while cooking, and enjoyed conversation and card games while sitting around the fire on the patio. The kids said they had the best time there. We agree.
