Dupont Forest Trailside Cabin

NEW UPDATES FOR 2025:

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

Great place for peaceful relaxation and family time
We loved staying at this comfortable cabin with its generous porch, comfy beds, large kitchen and comfortable den. Perfect for rest and relaxation after long hikes or visits to neighboring towns. It reminded us of our family cabin in Colorado. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Perfect Cabin, Perfect Location
Our stay was close to perfect and everything was made super convenient. Our friend group is all aged 20 or less and that was not a problem at all. We were welcomed by Steve when we got there and he was helpful the whole trip when we needed him. The cabin is on a farm and 5 minutes or less away from Dupont Forest so you will never get bored. This place has everything you want and need for a getaway in the mountains.

Great cabin- close to DuPont Forest
We had a great time here. It was very close to DuPont Forest where we hiked to waterfalls. The kids enjoyed the adjacent trails from the cabin. The house was convenient to Brevard and Hendersonville. Firepit in backyard for marshmallow roasting, wood provided by host! House is a quaint old fashioned cabin with all the modern amenities.

A wonderful week in the woods
It was a lovely cabin tucked right into the woods, cozy and well-appointed inside and with an amazing porch that invited us out. We enjoyed the trails on the property for early morning strolls and for the kids to get out and adventure, and we were so happy to be able to enjoy DuPont trails without even having to get in the car. The hiking and biking and waterfalls nearby in DuPont and Pisgah made for great daytrips too. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Peaceful private setting
My husband and our 4 children loved this cabin. We were able to unplug and enjoy being with each other in a beautiful mountain setting. DuPont’s High Falls trailhead is a super short drive and Brevard and Hendersonville are also close by. Steve, the caretaker, was helpful and friendly. Well appointed amenities. We hope to stay here again.

The cabin was beautiful and the house was 5 minutes from Dupont state park and about 15 minutes from pisgah np. The caretaker was polite. The only drawback was that there was no internet or cable which was ok.
