Welcome to Mount Carmel Farm and the Rustic Refuge, one of two cabins on the farm. Relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while surveying views of White Oak Mountain and Saluda Ridge in the Blue Ridge Mountain foothills. The āRustic Refugeā Log Cabin is a cozy place to enjoy breakfast before heading to Main Street for antique shopping or Amish foods and furniture exploring. Have breakfast at Southern Manners, lunch at Hare and Hound, dinner at Soulisaās and finish up with a glass of wine and live music at Overmountain Winery, Mountain Brook Winery or The Red Horse Inn.

Or just soak up some slow-down time, watch the sheep meander in the pasture, read a good book, waft the mountain air, listen to the birds or stargaze the foothills big sky.
