"I didn't think the view was real. When I arrived, I was brought to tears." | Cabin in Glenville
3 Bedroom Cabin in Glenville
Hi, solitude seeker.
Before you get started, please watch the video link for Raydio Ridge listed on this site. It relates a perfect description of this home, and its lofty perch on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. Life is better above 4,500 feet!
"I don't want to be in town. I don't want to be in a gated community. I wanted privacy, seclusion, and golden silence. I want gravel crunching under my tires, as I left the insanity behind. I want countless stars overhead, and the sweet smell of Mountain Air. I want Raydio Ridge, EVERY TIME!" A guest entry from my guest book.
Raydio Ridge is the perfect escape for a couple, a group of friends, or an adventurous family.
Raydio Ridge is located just below the ridge peak of Big Ridge Mountain in Glenville, NC. Just 15 minutes from Lake Glenville, the "cabin" may be the perfect mountain escape. With an open floor plan, and "wall of windows" that allow the surrounding panoramic mountain views to pour into the home.
The majestic long-range views are enhanced by a secluded, private setting. Intimacy, and quiet were of the up-most importance when I envisioned this escape. That noted, the sound system with speakers, both indoors and out can be the perfect addition to your "lively" mountain experience. Simply download the Sonos App, and you're the DJ.
Thanks to Starlink, the home is wired and ready for all of your devices.
The home is equipped with an automatic generator, ensuring your power will not be interrupted during your stay. Power outages in the mountains can occur more frequently due to high winds, and downed trees. At Raydio Ridge we'll keep the lights on for you.
The kitchen appliances have all been upgraded. The hand crafted kitchen cabinets, island, and wormy chestnut bar are the handy work of local artisan, Bob Good.
Three comfortable bedrooms, all with Casper Mattresses await! There are two king size, and two twin beds, providing ample space for six. Sheets and towels are provided! The floor plan is open and gracious, accented by comfortable furnishings, appointments, and art. Indoors or out, there is plenty of seating with breath taking, expansive views. Three outdoor seating areas provide plenty of options. From the covered side porch to the outdoor living room, you'll find a welcoming spot!
Smoking is prohibited indoors, but a fine cigar is encouraged on the deck...or whatever puff-n-stuff makes you giddy.
From Raydio Ridge, you are just minutes away from boating, hiking, dining, shopping, fishing and entertainment venues.
Start your morning on the covered side porch, with a fresh cup of brew, (French Press, Nespresso and drip options are provided) and greet the day with our feathered neighbors who make Raydio Ridge home. Bird seed is provided so that you can keep our friends well fed. BUT PLEASE....bring the feeders in at night!
Named after my father, Ray, and the business that helped me build this retreat... Raydio Ridge is not just a vacation rental, this is a home. A peaceful retreat. A place unlike any other. You will arrive and never want to leave. Or so I have been told...
NOTE - The home is located on a gravel road. The road is very navigable, but I always want guests to know that the privacy of this place requires "getting off the beaten path". If you leave on asphalt, and arrive on asphalt, you're not in the mountains! SUV's, and cars of all sorts make the journey up this mountain, but I would hesitate to bring a Porsche, or Ferrari. Though, one intrepid full time resident drives a Corvette up and down the mountain almost daily.
So, if you are ready for an authentic mountain escape, complete with all the comforts of home, Raydio Ridge is worth your consideration. Truth is, if you're not there, I will be.
Remember, even in the summertime, pack your FALL clothing. At Raydio Ridge, the nights are crisp, and the days are cool. A pull-over, or a sweater are always in season at Raydio Ridge, especially at night.
Maximum capacity is six (6) people. You must be at least 25 to rent this home. Reservations made under false pretense will result in a stern lecture from my Mom, immediate eviction, and forfeiture of any funds paid. Ouch! :)
