Welcome to our Moonshine Mini-Mansion. The home is on 8 acres in the beautiful foothills of North Carolina and has just the right amount of every season. Only 30 miles to Boone and 6 miles to Faithfest and Merlefest! The entire home has been recently refurbished with all new finishes, new paint, soft close cabinets, and new flooring. This is a cozy house, and it is on land aka 'in the sticks.' Due to it being out in the country, you may see a bug or two! The house is 1 BR, 1 BA, but does have 2 queen memory foam sleeper sofas in the den. The bedroom has a queen bed and the bath has a tub/shower combination. You will have to move side tables and coffee tables to 'open' the sleeper sofas in the den. We have a drip coffee maker, a cappuccino machine, French press and coffee bean grinder available for your use. We provide basic coffee, beans and small creamers. Shampoo/conditioner/body wash is also available for your use. Wilkes County locals call the town the "Moonshine Capital of the World." I'm not sure if that’s true but most everybody you talk to up there can probably tell you a moonshine story. My grandpa even had a moonshine still at one point and his dad was the sheriff! Wilkes County is proud to now have a Moonshine distillery - Call Family Distillery. They have moonshine pictures, stories, cars and LOTS of moonshine – the legal kind that you can buy if you are old enough. This home is just about 5-10 minutes off of Highway 421 and is a great home base for things to do in the area. What to do: There are several festivals in Wilkes County. Faithfest is in August. Merlefest (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) is in September but normally would be in April. October welcomes autumn with the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival. This is their 42nd year and my Mom remembers the first one. It was much different than today’s festival which hosts ov (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) in attendance. We recently had the Peach Festival and FaithFest. MerleFest is a “traditional plus” 4-day music festival that is heralded as one of the best in the country. FULL DISCLOSURE, PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING: This home was hand-built in the (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) s which means everything may not be completely plumb (straight, even, level, etc.) A few notes –some of the ceilings are a little less than normal height so if you are a little more than normal height, we might not be a good fit. We are out in the country so sometimes there may be country smells and such like skunks, bugs and chickens. You may also see wildlife in the yard. Please do not approach wildlife or leave food out for them. The Moonshine Mini-Mansion sits on just under 8 acres of land that are mostly to the left and back and include the big field and the hills to the left of it. There is PLENTY of parking and a 2 car carport. There is a huge double tier deck so you can enjoy the beauty of the nature around you. You will have the home to yourself. We do not live on site. We do not live on-site but have friends close by if you need us. Enjoy the quiet of country living. There are plenty of places nearby to eat and shop and LOTS of festivals in the area. Cagneys is great for breakfast. Roselli's is the closest place to eat and it is FANTASTIC!!!! The custard-filled cream puffs are SO GOOD!!!! Their salad is famous as are all their Italian dishes. Their hours are sporadic but well worth the wait. They have opened a Roselli's on 10th in North Wilkesboro also. MOONSHINE - legal moonshine is made at the Call Distillery nearby. If you are of age, you gotta try it! They have flavors as well as regular and lots of pictures and memorabilia. Very cool!! We are close to beautiful waterfalls, Ashe County cheese factory, an Amish Store, Peach Orchids, and Apple Orchards, as well as Boone, Tweetsie RailRoad, an Old War Cemetery, and so much more. Uber and Lyft do not appear to be available at this time via their websites. - Please do not flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilet (including tampons, pads, paper towels, etc.) - No parties - No smoking of any substance - No underage drinking ( aka don't break the law)
