This little house was built as a storage shed back in the 70’s or somewhere there abouts. It was originally constructed partially over an old tobacco barn foundation. The original barn was built sometime in the 1940’s and was struck by lightening in the 70’s and burned to the ground. 85% of the materials used in the remodeling of what we now call Rustic Ridge was reclaimed materials. Most of the planks and finish lumber Which includes wormy chestnut, ash and cherry wood was salvaged from an old farmhouse that was dismantled on our nearby property. With all new plumbing and electrical you get all the safety and comfort of your own home. The house does not have AC and it is hardly ever needed. Even in the heat of summer the house stays cool being located under a canopy of tall birch, poplar and cherry trees. Heat is provided by electric baseboard and wall heat as well as an electric fireplace. There is a small stream that runs just below the house. You can easily access the “creek” via a path just below the house. The water runs off the mountain above the house from about 5000 feet and is always cold. Feel free to splash around or soak your feet for a little while. Sit and enjoy a morning cup of coffee at the little table or in a porch rocker while listening to the stream. Afternoons are the perfect time to enjoy the fire pit. Feel free to collect dead twigs and branches from the woods near the creek just don’t cut anything. I will provide an arm load of dry firewood per visit and more will be available at $5/arm load on site (5-6 pieces). If you are up to a walk in the woods we own a 9 acre tract just across the street from Rustic Ridge. There is an old logging road that runs through it with pretty views. Help your self to a hike and take nothing with you but pictures and memories. Learn more about this land: Welcome to Rustic Ridge. This newly remodeled “tiny home” is as rustic yet comfortable as they come. Located deep in the Appalachian Mountains up a “holler” in Roan Mountain Tennessee you will enjoy all the porch rocking, coffee/wine sipping, and marshmallow roasting that you can stand. Just sit and enjoy the sounds of the babbling brook while you relax by the fire pit or take a short hike on our private trail. With deep woods views and changing leaf color this is truly a treasure.Welcome to Rustic Ridge. This newly remodeled “tiny home” is as rustic yet comfortable as they come.

With pets

This place exceeded my expectations in many ways. First I must mention the incredible water pressure in the shower-- very therapeutic after a day of hiking! Steve was so kind and hospitable. We had everything we needed, plus even more extra thoughtful items available to us, like cold beverages in the fridge, and coffee pods for the morning. The bed was sooo comfy, and it was wonderful to fall asleep to the sound of the creek. The space was bigger than I expected based on the photos, and was impeccably clean. Sipping coffee on the back porch with a book in the cool morning air after some rain was a highlight. Such a peaceful place, and I felt lucky to be able to book it for myself and my dog. I hope to stay there again next time I go exploring in the mountains.

Very Peaceful!

The cabin was very private except for a trailer there and they weren’t home the 2 nights we were there. It was very peaceful and cute! Steve had everything we needed there and was very helpful and responsive! Would definitely recommend!
