Modern Roost on the mountain top
The Willet Nest is all about the view, and the secluded mountain setting that is exactly what the doctor ordered to push your reset button. The modern house, perched on the side of the mountain, offers beautiful views and serves as a quiet, secluded getaway for newlyweds or the entire family.
Just another mountain cabin with a view, you think? No. For starters, this one is surrounded by 1000+ undeveloped acres (including Elk Knob State Park) so you really are secluded in the wild. But as a bonus you get the farm down below, where you are welcome to join me and the farm dog in the daily workings of the farm, taking care of the donkey, the pot-bellied pig, bunches of bunnies, a herd of horses, and a diverse flock of fowl (including peacocks!). Wake to a spectacular sunrise and take the beautiful walk down the mountain to help gather farm fresh eggs. Treat yourself to the simple joys of life and discover why we have an extremely high guest return rate.
Watch our delightful farmhouse video to see the whole menagerie in action and to better understand what a visit could mean to you and yours.
All linens, towels, detergents, and soaps are provided, as well as wood for the fire pit. Both the sleeping cabin and main house have AC and heating systems.
Please note that the Willet Nest has a 1/2 mile private driveway that winds though the farm and up a steep mountainside. 4WD is advised during the winter months. And it is possible that the top of the driveway could become impassable (walkable only) in the event of a big winter storm.
