the 1820s Moore log house (owners private home), summer house/gazebo and
gardens.The log structures were disassembled and reconstructed in 1986/1987.
The frame section of the Marion Frisbee cabin was remodeled in 2019/2020 with
the addition of all new appliances air, heating and an all new bathroom with a
walk-in shower. Mostly, antique country furniture from the early 1800s (some
locally made) has been used to furnish the cabin. Our guests have the privilege
(8:00 am to sundown) of using our rustic summer house/gazebo behind our house and may enjoy the gardens by the many short paths. The combination of native wildflowers, roses, scrubs, vegetables, herbs, dry stacked traditional rock

    This cabin is a gem located in lovely weaverville which is a small community with friendly people outside of Asheville. The cabin was warm and cozy with all the amenities you would want. The bed was comfortable and nice shower. The hosts mike and Vivian were the most gracious and were so willing to make us comfortable. We would highly recommend this area and the cabin!

    This property is wonderful. It is spotless and well-equipped. It is very well located, especially for anyone attending an event at Claxton Farm, as we were. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby; we recommend the north location of Luella’s barbeque, and also CA’s Diner for typical southern cooking. The most wonderful thing about the property, however, is the garden. It has been planted to attract birds and was full of cardinals and finches when we were there. We loved the place and recommend it as truly superior.

    The cabin was clean and had a nice little kitchen and sitting area. I'd say it wasn't as secluded as we imagined as it's pretty close to its neighbors and there wasn't an outside area, but that was not the fault of the host communication. It was just not what we expected.Check-in was super easy and quick. The instructions were clear. Check-out just as simple. Close to Weaverville and Asheville. Thank you!

    We had a wonderful time staying at this cabin. It is close to dear friends and we could easily get into Asheville without any trouble. After a very tiring time from a death in the family the week before, we had the opportunity to slow down and rest. Sitting on the front porch or inside the living room was so peaceful and a balm for weary souls. We will be back!!!

    It was perfect for my boys and I. Mrs. Vivien was so nice and very responsive with messaging back. The cabin is so nice. It feels like something one of the founding fathers would have lived in. It was very clean and plenty of room to stretch out, for only being a one bedroom. Everything you could possibly need is down the street this way or that way. Nothing is far away. Beautiful park right down the street. Perfect for kids and/or pets. The Yellow Mug coffee shop is worth trying, as well as Blue Ridge Mountain Pizza. There is a lot of great stuff around there but we only had a short stay. We plan on trying more, next time.i would 100% stay here again.

    Spending the extended weekend in a nearly 200 year old cabin is amazing in itself but when you add the property with the gardens and gazebo, its above expectations. Great host(s) and fantastic area.
