Cabin Rentals

Your Perfect Spot for Rest & Recreation on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Situated on five spacious acres, the Haven at Greenwood Glen offers eight separate vacation homes with ample privacy or the freedom to meet others around our communal fire pit area.

We are The Greenwoods: Kevin, Briggs & Lawson. While we are your hosts and your haven away from home is our home, we are happy to have as much or as little interaction with you as you’d like. We are delighted to provide you with ideas for outings, answer questions about the area, even shop for your groceries before you arrive, or chat with you around a bonfire, but if you prefer solitude it’s not necessary to interact with us at all during your stay. Of course, we are always available via phone, text or email.

Haven at Greenwood Glen is a dream come true for our family. We have long dreamt and casually talked about living in the North Carolina mountains, but it always seemed like something in the future: after our nest was empty, after retirement, after grandkids — just AFTER.  In the fall of 2021, our after became NOW.  We are indescribably excited to host you on our lovely Blue Ridge Parkway property.

Leave your worries behind and come to The Cabins at Healing Springs to relax, renew, and replenish.

Tucked away at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, you will find a secluded glen of historic cabins surrounding a natural spring. The historic Healing Spring was discovered in 1884 and was originally called Thompson’s Bromine and Arsenic Springs. The property was then known as Healing Springs Resort in later years and is now simply called The Cabins at Healing Springs.

Many of the cabins are the original cabins that were built back in the early 1900s. We are proud to be on the National Register of Historic Places. The natural spring known as “Healing Spring” is reported to have healing abilities and recorded to have cured everything from poison ivy to rheumatism, indigestion to ulcers.

Between 1889 and 1899, the distribution of the water from Healing Springs played an interesting part of Ashe County’s history and development. Local tradition has held steadfast for over 100 years that the waters have curative powers.
