Rare Opportunity to Steward an Appalachian Homestead! Nestled on the edge of the temperate Appalachian rainforest in Pisgah, this unique homestead is surrounded by rare native plants, rushing creeks, and a serene, stream-fed pond. The property features a fully restored main cabin and a separate guest cabin, offering both tranquility and charm. 7.83 Acres of lush land including two creeks—Crab Creek and Dismal Creek—and featuring King Pond, a stream-fed pond named after Mr. King, a former lead horticulturist at Holmes State Educational Forest. He was also the steward responsible for planting many native species found throughout the property. The pond includes a new 12x12 pier, firepit, and was dredged in 2024. A truly rare and treasured feature: this property is part of the last known area of Pisgah National Forest to host the elusive Blue Ghost Fireflies. Their annual appearance—typically mid to late May—can be observed right from the private drive.
