LIVE WHERE OTHERS VACATION! Fully furnished and completely turnkey, Hawk Ridge Hideaway offers an authentic log cabin mountain retreat to enjoy as your full-time residence, a lock-and-leave getaway in one of the areas most sought after large acreage gated mountain communities, or a short-term rental opportunity that can help offset ownership expenses when you're not there. There are places you visit, and places that immediately make you exhale. Perched on 6.47 private mountain acres in gated Yellowtop Mountain Estates, Hawk Ridge Hideaway is a retreat from the noise, traffic and pace of everyday life—a place where mornings begin quietly on the porch, hawks glide effortlessly on the thermals just off of your front porch, and evenings end with glorious sunsets stretching across miles of mountains and valleys. The long-range views are the centerpiece here, extending from the South Mountains toward the Blue Ridge and creating an ever-changing backdrop through all four seasons. Grab a cup of coffee and settle into the porch swing, curl up beside the wood-burning fireplace on a cool evening, gather around the fire pit under a clear mountain sky, or simply enjoy the rare luxury of having nowhere you need to be. Yellowtop Mountain Estates is an approximately 1,100-acre gated mountain community known for its paved roads, generous acreage, beautiful views and peaceful setting. Situated in Rutherford County between the South Mountains and Appalachian range, it feels wonderfully removed while remaining within reach of Asheville, Charlotte, Lake Lure, Lake James and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Meticulously maintained and recently re-stained, Hawk Ridge Hideaway is ready to enjoy from day one. One year comprehensive home warranty included as well! Come for a weekend and leave the city behind. Spend weeks or entire seasons here. Make it your full-time mountain home. Or reserve the dates you want for yourself and offer it as a short-term rental when you're away. However you choose to enjoy it, the appeal is the same: privacy, quiet, spectacular views and an authentic mountain cabin lifestyle—all waiting for you the moment you arrive.
