The Cozy Cabin – A Historic Chestnut Log Haven in the Holler

Step back in time and into the heart of Appalachian heritage at the Cozy Cabin, a beautifully preserved 186-year-old chestnut log cabin nestled deep in the holler. With its original log walls and hand-hewn charm, this historic retreat offers a one-of-a-kind stay steeped in warmth, tradition, and story.

From the back porch, settle into a rocking chair and take in sweeping views of the meadow and tree-lined ridges—watching mist rise over the holler as birds call through the morning stillness.

Inside, the cabin offers a lovingly curated blend of comfort and history. Downstairs, you’ll find a quaint sleeping area with twin beds, a cozy sitting nook, and a full bathroom. The main living area features a working fireplace, perfect for chilly evenings, along with an eat-in kitchenette equipped for simple meals and slow mornings.

Upstairs, you’ll discover a tucked-away Appalachian sleeping loft complete with additional beds and a half-bath—ideal for families or small groups seeking a restful mountain escape.

Each morning, guests are treated to a homemade breakfast served at 9 a.m. in the nearby farmhouse—fresh, comforting, and always included with your stay. Guests are also warmly invited to reserve dinner any evening during their visit. Our house-made, from-scratch dinners are delivered right to your cabin and include 4–5 seasonal courses for $55 per person. We’re happy to accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies with care.

Whether you're gathering stories around the fire or simply resting in the hush of the hills, the Cozy Cabin invites you to slow down and stay awhile.
