Walden Cabin Experience | Cabin in Stokesdale
2 Bedroom Cabin in Stokes, Stokesdale
Inspired by Henry David Thoreau's legendary 1845 cabin at Walden Pond, this studied replica was built over 10 months with careful attention to detail, based on communications with the museum curators at Walden Pond in Massachusetts. The cabin's beautiful mix of woods were locally harvested, the nails were blacksmithed to 1850-era specs. Recycled products were used as possible; and historical artifacts, including Thoreau's personal library while he was at Walden, help visitors step back in time. An inside root cellar and front porch cooler provide food storage options.
Hiking trails, mountain bikes, axes and knives, kayaks and outdoor games are all provided. Coffee or tea are delivered to the front porch for guests, as well as firewood, candles and lamp oil.
Access is provided to a dedicated bathroom with shower at Magnalia Homestead (www.magnalia.org) if desired. All rental proceeds benefit the work of Magnalia Homestead Foundation, a public 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
Guests may also enjoy:
Access to harvest fresh produce from Colonial-styled (22-box) community garden.
Access to 1850-styled Blacksmith Shoppe for cooking and meals.
Access to more than a mile of hiking/mountain biking trails -- bring your bike!
Access to Homestead shared bathroom amenities. Located in Stokesdale, NC near Belews Lake. Exact address provided for guests prior to arrival.
*** The “twin” bed below is a twin sized cot which sleeps one true to what Henry David Thoreau would have slept on. It comes with fresh sheets, a warm quilt, and a pillow. The “queen sized bed” up in the loft (accessed by a wooden ladder) is a queen sized mattress and does not come with linens — please bring a sleeping bag and pillow if planning to sleep here. Please view this as a “luxury camping” or “glamping” experience. :) ***
