Gateway Getaway with Mountain Views and Fireplace

Relax with the whole family at this cozy mountain cabin in Old Fort, N.C., nestled inside a beautiful gated-community with outstanding views! Surrounded by 8 acres of woodland, you’ll enjoy peace and quiet as you relax on the back porch and enjoy the long-range mountain view.

Within the gated neighborhood, visit Lake George and Waterfall Park to enjoy hiking trails, fishing, canoeing, paddle boarding, swimming, splashing in the waterfall, and picnicking!

Old Fort is home to many mountain biking and hiking trails. Stop by the Old Fort Ride House downtown to get cycling maps and routes, or simply check out these well-known trails: Catawba Falls, Gateway Trail System, Kitsuma, and Point Lookout Loop. For fishing enthusiasts, Old Fort is one of North Carolina’s 17 Mountain Heritage Trout Cities. And art lovers will want to visit Arrowhead Gallery and Studios, which features a wide range of arts and crafts, as well as classes and workshops!

For history buffs, Old Fort is known for its pre-Revolutionary War era history. Stop by the Mountain Gateway Museum (free admission) to learn about Southern Appalachian heritage or to participate in one of their summer music festivals, programs, or other activities. Andrews Geyser, a man-made fountain built in 1879, is also in Old Fort and has an interesting history.

When you’re ready to re-fuel, check out the many eateries and craft breweries in the area: Hillman Beer, Whaley Farm Brewery, GoGo’s Cinnamon Rolls, Catawba Café & Cones, Headwaters Café, Black Beary’s Ice Cream, and Whistlestop Café. And you’re just a short drive to the many restaurants and breweries in Asheville, Black Mountain, and Marion.
