Mountain Retreat for Two! Japanese Tub. Fast WiFi

Dougs Way is an architecturally unique cabin with a slower pace—what locals call “mountain time”—where you can settle into your favorite things: morning coffee on the deck, long soaks in the tub, cooking, reconnecting over a fire, being creative, reading, or simply relaxing. Just the right amount of space to spread out or tuck in.

About Dougs Way

Minutes from Penland School of Craft—America’s oldest and largest craft school—the region is home to several distinctive cabins designed and built by woodworker/artist Doug Sigler and architect Robert Leverich, both well known in the Penland community. Their work reflects a restrained West Coast modern sensibility shaped by the materials and landscape of the North Carolina mountains, and informed by the craftsmanship long associated with fine craft.
