The mountain views and privacy this genuine log cabin offers are irresistible. From the quaint drive along a country road through the woods, you will often pass cattle before you are welcomed with the site of hand-made rocking chairs and hot tub on a full porch. 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. There are three security cameras on the property, covering the front yard, back yard, and front door.

This was our second visit to this wonderful place! Everything was just perfect...including the weather. The owners thought of everything. Highly recommended! A beautiful place for rest and relaxing. Very quiet and
Awesome house! Area around it has cows and deer you can see almost every day. House is very prepared with games and everything you could possibly need! Would definitely stay here again
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
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
We enjoyed our quiet and restful time at this wonderful cabin. It was interesting to walk through the cabin and see the pictures, sculptures and old appliances. The spacious kitchen was a special highlight allowing for plenty of room to move around. We picked a perfect time to visit with the Fall colors just starting to show from the nice view in the Sunroom. Draco, our German Shepherd, especially liked this location so he could watch the cows. :-) The best I can say is that this will become our repeat destination and we look forward to touring more of the area in the future.
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.
The uniqueness of this 200 year-old cabin was fantastic. The area was simply gorgeous. The owner Jenn went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful thank you from the blinkey family.
The cabin was perfect for our girl’s trip with 6 adults. It was very well equipped with things we needed. The host was quick to respond with the minor trouble we had with the lock upon arrival. We would stay again without hesitation.
Beautiful property, very clean, lots to do in nearby areas or you can stay at the property and relax. Hot tub, grill, walking trails, lots of games to play. We had a great time!
By far the best cabin we have stayed in! It was very clean and spacious. The kitchen is amazing! Spent lots of time in the hot tub and around the fire pit! Would definitely recommend for a relaxing vacation!
We had a wonderful vacation and really enjoyed the hot tub! The kitchen had everything that we needed and the beds were supper comfy. The cabin is amazing and very unique. Loved the photos of the transformation! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful cabin with us.

The cabin was beautiful as well as its surroundings, absolutely breathtaking!! We drove over to visit our daughter in Boone the only drawback was the excessive distance between Boone and Creston, otherwise it was an excellent stay.
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 kids stayed the weekend at this cabin and words can’t explain how nice the cabin is and it’s secluded but still only 20 minutes to town if you need anything. Can’t wait to stay again!!
