Cubs Den Cabin | Luxe Views, Hot Tub + Fire Pit Retreat + Biltmore Pass | Cabin in Mars Hill
2 Bedroom Cabin in Mars Hill
Situated in the private mountain enclave of Heart Ridge Cove in the Burnsville/Mars Hill area, Cubs Den Cabin is a newly built, upscale retreat set on more than 100 secluded acres. The property features winding timber trails and breathtaking long-range views—including Mt. Mitchell and Craggy Pinnacle—from various scenic overlooks throughout the cove. Designed for comfort and connection, this log-style cabin includes two spacious master suites, providing the perfect blend of rustic elegance and modern convenience.
On the main floor, you’ll find a light-filled kitchen and dining area with a handcrafted island made from local oak. Step outside to a covered deck furnished with four classic log rocking chairs—an ideal place to sip your morning coffee as mist weaves through the mountains. A gas grill and outdoor fire pit invite evenings of grilling, storytelling, or marshmallow roasting beneath the stars. Upstairs, a cozy loft features twin bunk beds, ideal for children or extra guests. Both king-suite bedrooms include private en suite bathrooms, each with a clawfoot soaking tub and walk-in shower for a luxurious spa-like experience.
Although nestled in peaceful seclusion, Cubs Den is conveniently located just 12 minutes from the Appalachian Trail -Sam's Gap & 13 minutes from Mars Hill University and the Southern Appalachian Repertory Theater. Downtown Burnsville is only 15 minutes away and offers charming shops, eateries, and a thriving local arts scene. Be sure to catch a show at the historic Parkway Playhouse or visit the celebrated Penland School of Craft and its gallery. Also nearby are the Stables at Bucktown and The Preserve at Wolf Laurel, where guests can enjoy guided trail rides, lessons, and arena experiences for young riders.
Just 20 minutes away, Weaverville provides another delightful day trip, known for its top-rated restaurants like The Twisted Laurel and Stoney Knob Café, plus locally loved spots like the Well-Bred Bakery. Enjoy the town’s breweries, parks, and seasonal festivals. For outdoor adventurers, Navitat Canopy Adventures in Barnardsville is only 25 minutes from the cabin, offering high-elevation ziplining by day, sunset, or under the stars. Or head 30 minutes to Carolina Hemlocks Recreation Area for swimming, tubing, and fishing along a beautiful stretch of mountain river.
An hour south lies Mount Mitchell, the tallest peak east of the Mississippi, with panoramic views and extensive hiking trails throughout its State Park. The Burnsville region also boasts other natural wonders, such as Roaring Fork Creek Falls—a short, family-friendly hike to a 100-foot cascade—and the scenic Blue Ridge Pinnacle & Rocky Knob trail, a moderate hike through flower-filled forests to sweeping mountain vistas.
When winter rolls in, you’re just 15 minutes from Hatley Pointe Ski Resort (formerly Wolf Ridge), which offers both skiing and dining at its on-site restaurant, Smoke and Timber.
A visit to this region wouldn’t be complete without a trip to Asheville, just a 30-minute drive from the cabin. Dubbed the "Paris of the South," Asheville is known for its vibrant River Arts District, the beautiful North Carolina Arboretum, and the famous Biltmore Estate. The city also features a wide array of award-winning restaurants, cafes, and breweries for every taste.
Traveling with friends or family? You can also book the nearby Deerfield, an identical luxury cabin just steps away. Heart Ridge Cove is more than just a name; it reflects the heart-shaped layout of the land and the love and care poured into creating a peaceful, elevated guest experience. Come and experience the warmth, beauty, and serenity of this special mountain retreat. We hope you’ll make memories and grow with us in Heart Ridge Cove.
