The mountain views and privacy this genuine log cabin offers are irresistible.

Once inside, you will feel warm and cozy surrounded by 200 year old timber walls, comfortable furniture, and a gas-burning fireplace. The kitchen is large and very well-equipped for cooking, baking, and gathering together. The main floor master bedroom offers a luxurious king size bed, while a second bedroom offers a queen bed. Upstairs you’ll find a large bedroom with two twin beds and one queen bed, as well as an en suite bathroom with a beautiful slipper tub. While rustic in decor, this cabin offers all the modern amenities for those who still need connection: fast WI-FI, unlimited domestic phone service, and satellite TV. Approx 30 minutes (19mi) to Boone or Jefferson (22mi), and only 22 minutes to Mountain City, TN (11mi). Approx. One Hour (33 miles) to popular ski hills.

It was described perfectly… everything was so easy to find within the house. Going to the house was a little scary at first but after that second gate every thing was perfect.

Definitely Irresistible
The cabin was absolutely perfect for families, and was very thoughtfully stocked with lots of toys and games to entertain children of all ages. The cabin was warm and inviting, however the beautiful view and peaceful surroundings will certainly draw you outside. The worst part of the trip was having to leave

Family Wedding in Mountain City
It was everything we were hoping for! Peace and quiet, various activities for the family, like hot tub, foosball, and plenty of land for hiking. We attended a family wedding at a venue nearby, but most of our time was spent at the VRBO property and it was heaven! Owners were very easy to get a hold of and quick to respond with someone nearby if we needed a face-to-face as we did. We would definitely stay again

Let me just say, the pictures don’t even do this place justice. My family and I sworn Christmas here and it was all we could have ever wanted and more. The cabin is charming, clean and just secluded enough. Host was attentive, kind and made our stay feel extra special. If you’re looking for a cabin in NC, I couldn’t recommend this place more. We will absolutely be back :)

My wife and I stayed at this cabin in 2021 and decided to go back in 2024. My Wife claimed the sun room as before. The set up is good for us. The kitchen is large with lots of counter space and all the appliances are in good order. The grill and hot tub were upgraded since our prior visit. We had another excellent experience and would not hesitate to book this property again! The view is great and the privacy is also. Our 2 dogs had a good time also.

Mountain Getaway
The cabin was as described in the listing. There were lots of dead flies along the window sills in the kitchen and in the sunroom area. The rest of the house was clean and beds were comfortable. The living room furniture could stand to be replaced just due to everyday wear and tear- worn out. The property is great but be prepared to travel a minimum of 45 minutes if you need anything. Overall great stay.

We loved everything about this stay. Pictures don't do it justice! Property was clean and well maintained, spacious enough for our extended family of 5, and just absolutely beautiful. Kitchen and hottub were special highlights. 35minutes from both Boone and West Jefferson, and easy to just relax into the home and land. Visits from cows were an added perk!

Relaxing get-away
Beautiful house and property. We loved sitting on the front porch and watching the ever changing view of the mountains. Everything was so lush and green with lots of wildflowers, we picked bouquets to put on the table. The lane by the house was great for daily walks. Loved the sounds of the brook. We took lots of hikes and explored some of the little towns nearby. Just an all around lovely vacation.

This was not my first time coming to the cabin, but was a first with close friends and we loved it! We are in a job where we are constantly plugged in so it was SO nice to be unplugged surrounded by beauty here. Jenn was quick to respond to our message and the cabin was cozy and super clean. We LOVED talking about the old photos of the original cabin.
