Cheerful Brevard home fenced yard on quiet acre

Woeppel Landing is tucked away on an acre of land in a quiet little neighborhood but yet just a stones-throw from all your mountain activities and adventures.
Hiking, biking, tubing, snow tubing and fishing are all within a couple miles yet Asheville and its attractions, including the Biltmore Estate are only 25 to 30 minutes away.
Even though it feels like you’re a million miles away from it all, just a short 8 minute drive brings you to the charming town of Brevard. Just a few more minutes down the road is Hendersonville and its quaint downtown. Woeppel Landing’s aviation & travel decor is in homage to three generations of pilots in our family.

BREVARD:
Super cute little town. Easy enough to park right downtown and walk to all the sights. With kids In tow, you can’t pass up the three story OP Taylor Toy store and then hit up Rocky’s local soda shop. For unique shopping, make sure to check out Mantiques and DDBullwinkles outdoor store. While the kids are still on a sugar high, head into Pisgah Forest and check out all our beautiful waterfalls.
Looking Glass falls is a short drive into the forest and has parking with a tiny walk down to the falls. For a full days adventure, rent a tube at the entrance of the forest and lazy River tube down the river or spend the day at Sliding Rock. If the weather is dreary, you can check out the Fish Hatchery at John’s Rock or the Cradle of Forestry for kids entertainment in Pisgah. On a pretty day, the 25 minute drive up 276 from Brevard to the Blue Ridge is worth the spectacular view. If it’s supper time on the parkway, The Pisgah Inn has a stellar and fancy menu.
*Jordan’s has a lovely brunch
*Morning Social is your best breakfast in town.
*Jet’s & Pizza Hut deliver
**It’s a 15 minute drive into Mills River but Conosur is our favorite place, serving Cuban & Peruvian food.


DUPONT/FLAT ROCK:
DuPont Forest is a must. It’s a 15 minute drive to Park at the High Falls access parking lot (with visitor center and bathrooms) and take the three-mile hike to three stunning waterfalls. You can spend an entire day hiking in DuPont but if you’ve got time to spare, head out to Sky Top Orchard. Pick some apples, swing by their petting zoo and don’t forget to snag a hot apple-cider donut! If you would rather a little beauty and serenity, The Carl Sandburg Home is lovely and also has goats for the kiddos.


HENDERSONVILLE:
