This luxurious mountain cabin is nestled in a hardwood cove surrounded by a babbling brook, blooming rhododendron, and landscaped with native plants. The cabin is tastefully furnished with mission-style antiques, has a wood-burning, field stone fireplace, and all of the amenities of a home away from home. A wrap around porch with outdoor living room surrounds the cabin---perfect for outdoor relaxation by candlelight while listening to the beautiful sounds of nature and a babbling brook. Alarge grill and stereo speakers make the porch perfect for outdoor lounging and entertaining, and a native stone circle fire pit is located in the garden area just below the front of the home. Inside is a large great room with a cathedral ceiling with hardwood paneling, dining table for 6, fully equipped modern kitchen, 2 sofa beds, fiber optic WiFi internet and satellite HDTV with premium movies and sports channels, and BluRay/DVD player. Originally a summer camp over fifty years ago, the property on which the home sits now is a private, family estate comprised of 66 mountainous acres with two ponds that are fed by 3 streams that originate on the property. There are two small fields at the top of the mountain that are perfect for playing games with the family and throwing balls to the dogs. Gravel roads and trails weave throughout the property for leisurely strolls, short hikes, and outright bush-whacking for the brave hearted! A great place to roam through the woods, play in the streams, and have some fun adventures with kids! Structural relics of the old summer camp still exist----old stone foundations from the cabins, a stone amphitheater in a mountain cove, outdoor fireplaces, etc. make for interesting exploration as you walk the property. The largest pond is over an acre and is stocked with Rainbow Trout. An outbuilding that serves as a workshop/garage with a large front porch deck overlooks the pond with a grill and patio furniture making the perfect space for relaxing while fishing for your evening meal. This is more than a rental home --- it's an adventure! The Master BR has a King-size bed and a bathroom with a full bathtub/shower (the home's other bathroom has a spacious shower with a Waterpik high-pressure showerhead with an extra long hose if your dog happens to need a shower too!). One of the two additional BRs has a Queen-sized bed, and the other bedroom has a King. The LR has two Queen-size sleeper sofa beds. Home is well-appointed and furnished: all you need are your toiletries and clothes! High quality bed linens and towels are provided as well as a surprisingly well-equipped kitchen (coffee maker is drip, by the way as most ask, and I provide filters). What guests usually say they like most about this home is the very large covered porch out front with fire pit just below. Note: If this home is booked, there is one other home on this same property that isn't within seeing or hearing range (a small mountain separates them). Both homes have similar amenities, but it is a 2BR/2BA. You can check its availability by searching for property number 565064.

    If you love nature this is the place to stay! Stayed here with my family and we had a great time. Close to sliding rock and Asheville. We also spent some time at the cabin relaxing, fishing, hiking. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed and games for the kids. Very comfortable. Highly recommend.

    My family of 7 stayed for a week. The home was clean and very well stocked with everything we needed to cook. Being able to throw a quick meal in the crockpot made dinner a breeze after a long day of hiking and hungry kiddos. Beds were extremely comfortable. The grounds were a great bonus to our stay. Our kids enjoyed fishing in the pond every afternoon, and we enjoyed exploring some trails on the property. The grounds themselves are thoroughly maintained, signage easy to see and clearly marked, and it's a great location to explore Pisgah, Dupont, and Gorges. Hoping to be able to return again.

    A very lovely stay on beautiful property. Our family met here from SC, Texas, and Oklahoma to spend our grandson’s first birthday/Easter, and it was absolutely wonderful. Even our dog’s shoulders seemed to relax in the peaceful nature. We appreciated the extra touches like dog bowls, dog bed, pack and play, and virtually any kitchen item you might desire. For the nights we didn’t cook, the list of recommendations was very helpful, and we absolutely loved The Square Root. Top notch service and food. The home was clean, spacious, serene, and they update regularly as well as check to be sure everything is ok. While we were there, a covered swing was delivered for the pond, which we enjoyed fishing in multiple times. It is just a short walk down the driveway. One thing important to note that once you get on property, following the posted signs will get you to the correct house, as our GPS took us to the other house on site, and that was unfortunate but easily fixed by their clearly marked signage. We definitely would stay here again, and everyone in our group from the toddler to the college student to the young family, as well as my husband and I had an amazing time. We are very grateful for this getaway, and hope to return soon!

    Our family of six had an incredible stay at this cabin! It was spacious, comfortable, and in pristine condition—everything felt fresh and well-maintained. The location was perfect, nestled in a super cool area with tons of outdoor activities just a short drive away. Whether we were exploring nearby trails, enjoying the scenery, or just relaxing at the cabin, it was the perfect getaway. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy, adventure-filled escape!

    This property exceeded my expectations in every way! The grounds alone are amazing, and the cabin was so neat and clean and cozy. The kitchen was very well stocked, the beds were super comfortable, the whole cabin is just very homey. All of us enjoyed fishing in the stocked trout pond, and hanging out in the shop by the pond. The owner, David, is so friendly and helpful and communicative. He also provided a detailed guest guide to Brevard and the surrounding areas, which we found very useful. I can’t wait to book this property again! 10/10!
