Discover the enchantment of Spice Mountain Lodge, a unique mountain sanctuary perched on the shoulder of Grandfather Mountain at over 4,400 feet. This one of a kind retreat harmoniously blends contemporary elegance with rustic warmth, all set against the majestic backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Crafted from massive British Columbian logs, this true log cabin invites you to step into a grand living area where vaulted ceilings, a magnificent stone fireplace, and an open concept design create the perfect ambiance for lively gatherings or cozy evenings by the fire. On the main level, two inviting guest rooms and a full bath provide comfortable accommodations, while the upper floor has a spacious primary suite complete with balcony. The loft area is wonderful for reading, unwinding, or gazing through the floor to ceiling windows at the surrounding scenery. The lower level is built for fun and relaxation, and features a stylish game room, an additional four bunk room, and a third full bath as well as a large laundry room and garage.
Outside, the wrap-around deck offers a new perspective on the serene mountain setting and breathtaking views. Start your day with coffee on the balcony, grill on the expansive deck, or let the day’s adventures melt away in the hot tub or by the fire pit, all while soaking in the stunning natural surroundings. This secluded feeling oasis, bordered by permanently preserved parkland, offers both tranquility and adventure, with easy access to endless outdoor recreation. You will find world class hiking, skiing, and mountain biking as well as excellent options for dining just minutes away, and you will absolutely love enjoying beautiful days by the river at Grandfather Winery, just down the road! Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to enjoy the pinnacle of mountain living at Spice Mountain Lodge!
