Other things to note
🏔 Trail reality check: Pisgah trails run harder than their ratings suggest. A blue-rated trail here typically rides like a black diamond at most other systems.
If it's your first time, start at DuPont to get your legs and your line choice dialed before heading into Pisgah proper.
⚡ Generator: The property has a full-home backup generator. Mountain storms roll through fast and knock power out regularly in this corridor. You'll stay on.
🎣 Fishing regulations: The upper Davidson is catch-and-release, single-hook artificial only. A North Carolina fishing license and trout stamp are required. Purchase at ncwildlife dot org or at Davidson River Outfitters right at the Pisgah entrance. Don't show up without one.
🐕 Pets: Dogs welcome. Fenced yard, dog crates on-site if you need to crate while you're on the trail, water bowls and waste bags provided. $75 per stay.
📱 Cell service: Spotty to nonexistent inside Pisgah and parts of DuPont. Download offline maps and trail data before heading out. Don't count on streaming your ride or making calls once you're on trail.
🌧 Weather: Mountain weather changes fast. Pack a rain layer even when the forecast looks clean. Afternoon thunderstorms are common June through August, and temps can drop 15 degrees from the trailhead to the ridge.
👕 Laundry: Full-size washer and dryer on-site. After a few days of Pisgah dirt, you'll use it.
If there's anything you need before your trip that we can help you with, please do not hesitate to let us know. We want to make sure that you have a fun and enjoyable time!
