Located in the community of Linville in beautiful Avery County in the High Country of North Carolina, you will be our guests in a 1910 quaint eight-gabled farmhouse.
You can relax, step back from a hectic pace and just remind yourself of what truly matters, or since you will be only two miles from the entrance of Grandfather Mountain you can hike, watch wildlife, picnic or just take in the wonders of nature. We’re three miles from the Eastern Continental Divide and three miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway.
At Gable Haus you are within walking distance of the Historic Hampton Store built in 1921 as a stop on the Tweetsie Railroad. The store features cornmeal ground from an on-site gristmill, as well as an Art Gallery and live music on weekends. The Avery County Arts Council is located just behind the store.
The Linville Caverns, Linville Gorge Wilderness Area, Linville River and Majestic Falls on US 221 are within a twenty-mile range.
The original farmhouse contains the kitchen, owners suite, gathering room... a sunny room with a lot of whimsy... the Garden Room where gourmet breakfast is served each morning as well as social hour each day from 4:30 to 5:30 pm. There is plenty of sun streaming in overlooking an English garden.
