Lodging • The Loom House

The Loom House has been transformed into a romantic weekend or long weekend getaway cabin for two with modern conveniences. Downstairs in the living area is a massage tub for two (with scented bubble bath) across the room from the original wood-burning fireplace. A wet bar is nearby. A cozy bedroom with queen bed, and a small bath with a corner shower are upstairs. The private porch, with its own rockers, faces the farmhouse. The cabin is air-conditioned. A chair-and-a-half downstairs opens up to make a bed for a 3^rd person, if needed. Includes A Complete Country Gourmet Breakfast For Two Each Morning.

The Mast Farm dates from the late 1700s, when Joseph Mast traveled to the mountains from Randolph County, North Carolina, where he was born in 1764. His father John had settled there after emigrating from Switzerland via Pennsylvania. Joseph is said to have traded his rifle, his dog, and a pair of leggings for 1000 acres of fertile Watauga River Valley land. The first house, a two-room log cabin, was built between 1810 and 1812 and remains today as the oldest inhabitable log cabin in North Carolina. This cabin is the center of The Mast Farm Inn & Restaurant. It is called the Loom House because Aunt Josie Mast turned that original log cabin into a loom house and became celebrated for her coverlets, rugs, and handbags. Some of her coverlets are in the Smithsonian today. The Mast Farm Inn is a unique and eclectic collection of farm buildings, workshops, cottages, and cabins added between 1810 and 2004 and designed to receive guest in the greatest comfort possible while retaining the historical character of the buildings. It offers a wide and varied selection of lodging environments for different requirements and tastes. Each room, cottage and cabin has its particular features, benefits and character. Much like no two people are alike, no two rooms are alike. The Loom House is unique and a favorite of guests, photographers, artists, children, and passersby. It is the soul of The Mast Farm Inn.

Guest Testimonials
"What makes the quintessential innkeeper? Maybe it's that every effort to ensure a wonderful guest experience is made with thoughtful attention to detail.  Perhaps it's at dinner as Sandra wends her way among the beautifully appointed tables to speak with each and every guest as if greeting old friends. Maybe it's the charming Frenchness of it all, the way she, her mother Marie-Henriette and sister Danielle interact with staff, guests and each other, like part of a very special family. We feel lucky to be a part of it. ~ B. & P."

"Sandra, S. and I had a wonderful time. The inn was beautiful, the food was great, and we love the Valle Crucis area, but what really made the trip special was your family's hospitality. We appreciate the time you took to make our weekend unique. I have already recommended the Mast Farm Inn to several of my friends and co-workers, and S. and I hope to be back very soon ourselves. Please get in touch when you're in Raleigh - we look forward to hearing from you again. Have a wonderful week! T."

"Dear Family Owners of the Mast Farm Inn: Thank you so much for accommodating our early (7am) departure on 6 May (the fresh fruit and egg sandwiches got us to our destination w/o any fast food stop :-) We also very much enjoyed our fine dinner the night before (Pecan Encrusted Trout and the Squash Soup especially). The Miss Allie room was perfect for just the two of us, for we slept well on the fine mattress on the antique bed listening to the rain. Of course, walking the road down to the river and exploring the back yard and out-buildings (and swinging on the front porch) was a good way to work up an appetite for dinner. Especially friendly were your two daughters and son-in-law, who even helped us connect our e-mail. We will certainly recommend your inn to our friends and family, and we look forward to visiting again. The experience was certainly Tres Bon! Sincerely, N. & E."
