★Our home offers stunning, unobstructed, year-round, long-range, panoramic mountain & valley & direct SUNRISE views right outside your windows from 4,000 feet elevation, & very coveted seasonal views of the famous "Grandfather Mountain Profile View." Some frequently-seen amazing experiences from our home include a breathtaking sunrise with colors that your camera can't even capture, those “blue hour” and “golden hour” times of incredible lighting that often make for spectacular pics, along with cloud inversions that make you feel like you’re on a treehouse island. We picked a run-down cabin with amazing views & location to remodel into a comfy family retreat that we would love to share with you.
★Our home is nestled among mature Rosebay Rhododendrons & other trees, providing even more beauty and privacy from your treehouse-feeling perch on the side of a ridge overlooking Grandfather Mountain State Park, Moses H. Cone Memorial Park, Julian Price Memorial Park, The Blowing Rock, Grandfather Stables, & even some neighborhoods in the valley below us. Many animals may visit our home very discreetly during your stay including: black bears, red foxes, wild turkeys, Hummingbirds Hawks & lots of other birds, groundhogs, a bunny, and deer frequently come out to play at dawn and dusk.
★Visiting higher elevations in the mountains is peaceful, refreshing, exhilarating, & offers solitude, but our home is also in an upscale resort-like neighborhood, which offers quick accessibility to top attractions/wineries/restaurants/shopping, resort-like amenities such as pickleball, our own hiking trail, dog park, etc. & even access to paved roads with daily snow plowing/reliable utilities. The quiet town of Seven Devils, NC, which is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains in the Appalachian Mountain Range, is best known as the site of a popular wintertime snow tubing resort Hawksnest (which claims to be the largest tubing facility on the East Coast). Many of our guests have said that Seven Devils is like a “storybook town.” We are also expecting a new mountain coaster at Hawksnest soon & our own horse stables & trail riding outfitter to reopen after their Hurricane Helene cleanup & construction is complete.
★We are adjacent to Grandfather Mountain State Park, Bear Paw State Natural Area, the Foscoe Wetland Birding Trail, Otter Falls Park, the Watauga River’s spectacular fly fishing areas, Peak Mountain & the Dun Vegan Natural Area; & near the Moses Cone Old Growth Forest, Camp Lutherock, Howard Knob, Tater Hill Bog Preserve, High Haven, Beech Creek Bog State Natural Area, Valle Crucis Community Park, J. Douglas Williams Park, Linville Gorge & Pisgah National Forest, Roan Highlands, Elk Knob State Park, Lost Cove Wilderness Study Area, Rocky Knob Mountain Bike Park, famous trout fishing in the Elk River & of course The Blue Ridge Parkway. Our home offers nature enthusiasts quick access to hidden gems & stunning natural beauty, a globally-significant diverse array of flora, fauna, & animal species - even boasting rare, endangered, endemic, & threatened plant & animal species, & unique geological features in these significant natural heritage areas that are in close proximity.
★Our area was recently named one of Travel + Leisure’s Top 13 Most Beautiful Mountain Ranges in the U.S. for a Scenic Adventure Trip, especially The Blue Ridge Parkway: “America’s Favorite Drive” & is also near multiple “Top Scenic Jaw-Dropping Views & Hikes in the NC Blue Ridge Mountains,” providing opportunities for enjoying all of this very special region from your home base @ WishYouWereHere7Devils.

About the Owner

Our family loves to travel, and we've been known for some extensive itineraries; however, we always love coming to the NC mountains every year for the last 40+ years, so we decided to put down some roots with this second home. Our children are getting older & have travel sports commitments, so we are sharing our home with you when we can't use it. ★Make sure to click on the “View More About Ruth Sanders” & then “Location Activities" section too - more fun activities than it will even let us list in the area!
