Welcome to the Yummy Mud Puddle!


Ten acres of majestic forest where the home and studios of printmaker, Claudia Dunaway, and mixed media artist, John D. Richards, overlook the Black Mountains and Burnsville, North Carolina. The gallery also features handmade textile wearables by Kathryn Lynch.

A charming vacation rental is also located on the property, and will accommodate six guests in comfort. The house is equipped with fiber optic high speed internet, cable, and a free landline telephone. We are pet friendly.

Come sit on the dock, feed the fish in the pond, and absorb the serenity awaiting you at the Yummy Mud Puddle.
