Beautiful Lake James
Breathtaking View at Chimney Rock
The Backyard Bunkies were built as their name suggest, in our backyard. Why would you want to come and stay in our backyard? For the view!

After moving from the Central Coast of California to the sleepy town of Marion, NC, we realized that what we missed the most about California (besides the Mexican food) were the sunsets. So when we pulled up our driveway for the first time to look out and see not only the horizon, but one of the most breathtaking views in Western North Carolina, we knew that despite the decrepit one hundred year old house, this would be our home. After completely rehabbing the old house on the hill we decided we should share this captivating view with others. We built our first Bunkie which is 360 square feet (we call it the "Bitty"). We then built the "Itty-Bitty" Bunkie which is 192 square feet.

What Marion has to offer:

It's centrally located between Asheville, NC and Hickory, NC (45 minute drive)
Lake James known for it's natural beauty, with 175 miles of shoreline (Last of the Mohicans was filmed here)
Linville Falls (150 foot waterfall)
Linville Caverns
Catawba Falls (over 100 foot waterfall)
The Blue Ridge Parkway
The quaint town of Black Mountain (30 minute drive)
Watching extreme kayakers in Wilson's Gorge (45 minute drive)
Little Switzerland (30 minute drive)
Lake Lure (30 minute drive)
