    Quiet. Very rural. Nature. Farm, horses,sheep and goats. Wildlife. Peaceful and relaxing. Seems isolated yet not far from town but far enough. Take a horse back tour while you're there.

Sonny & Nancy Sellers
Arrowmont is a 200 acre working horse farm located on top of Cullowhee Mountain. We best serve families who are looking to get away from the stress of city life and want a remote, quiet place to relax... and the horses add their own special charms. The cabins were built in the '60's and are not handicap accessible. They are simple and comfortable. There is a bumpy gravel road that services the various cabins on the farm Since we are on top of a mountain, you might want to stop in town (Sylva, Franklin or Cashiers) for groceries before coming to your cabin. It's a 30 minute drive back to town for a grocery store. Sorry, GPS's don't work as well here because the mountains block signals. Consequently, cell phones also have poor reception. Verizon cells get the best signal... if you get a signal. Unfortunately, we do not accept pets. We are simply too small to set a side a unit just for pet owners. We are very sorry. In addition to the activities available at Arrowmont, such as: Horseback Riding (You get a 15% Discount) Trout fishing (in summer) 6-7 miles of hiking trails Hay rides Family reunions Special events
My wife and I wanted to raise our family in the beauty of these majestic mountains. We feel very fortunate to be able to live in this area. But it's definitely not for everyone. It's a "getaway" in every sense. "Shopaholics" may have problems.
You are coming to a remote mountainous area of North Carolina. There is a windy, two lane road climbing the mountain and the nearest grocery is 30 minutes away. So do make a list and check it twice! The gravel driveway is about 1 1/3 mile long.
