About this property

🐾 Bobcat Run - real log cabin w/ huge hot tub! Near Watauga Lake 🚤 & River 🐟

Beautiful, secluded log cabin. 3 bedroom/2 bath, 1300 square feet. Accommodates 6 adults or a family perfectly. The cabin sits on the back side of Beech Mountain close to the Watuga River drop in, Laurel Creek Waterfall and Watauga Lake. Enjoy two covered porches - one in the front and one in the back. Our cabin offers privacy without total isolation. Easy access off the main road. The large hot tub is private on the rear side of the cabin. We have new outdoor cafe lighting to enjoy while you sit in the hot tub or grill on the gas grill! Everyone loves the fire pit in the evening- it is great for s’mores under the stars! There is a new outdoor table on the front porch to use for playing games, drinking morning coffee or enjoying your meals. The cabin has an easy to use remote control gas fireplace, wifi, cable TV, new washer/dryer, picnic table and stainless steel gas grill.

The Master Bedroom is located downstairs and has a king size bed with an attached bathroom. ADA handrails are installed in this tub/shower. The two upstairs bedrooms each have a queen size bed. There is a TV in the living room and one in the master bedroom. The cabin is well maintained and very clean. It is conveniently located near 3 ski resorts all about 30-60 minutes away. It is only a few miles to tube in the Watauga River near Cove Creek. Enjoy Laurel Creek Falls- a short 10 minute drive from the cabin. You may also enjoy a swimming hole in the Watauga River about a half mile from the cabin off Guy Ford Road.

We welcome pets (limit 2) and have a $50 pet fee payable with reservations. Please crate your pet(s) if you leave the cabin. We have 1 crate available. Pet bowls are provided along with plenty of room for your pet to play in the yard.

Unlike many other cabins, you do not need to start laundry or take away the trash at your departure. We also have a pest control service, monthly, to keep any bugs away, although we have not had any problems. Thank you for considering Bobcat Run! We look forward to hosting you!!!

A Fall Retreat to Bobcat Run

The cabin was excellent and as advertised. It was well built, well equipped, and well appointed. From the rockers on the front porch, to the grill and hot tub on the back porch, to the comfortable bed, the cabin was great. There are so many places to explore that we never say we will be back but there is talk about a repeat trip to Bobcat Run.

Beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain Cabin

Bobcat Run is a lovely log cabin nestled in the trees on a mountain ridge. The drive up to the cabin is a bit steep and at the end of a twisty road, but definitely worth it once you arrive. The host of this property also did a great job in explaining everything to help prepare for the stay. The hot tub on the covered patio is wonderful after a day of hiking and the property has all the large beach towels you'll need. The nearby town of Boone, NC has a fun downtown area with many little shops and restaurants. This location is 30 min - 1 hour from many Blue Ridge Mountain parks and sites of interest. Highly recommend this property for your western NC getaway!

My family and I had a small vacation here and mainly stayed at the cabin. They had tons of board games and of course the hot tub! It’s very quiet and peaceful, the front porch was somewhere nice to relax while catching up on reading. Accessing the cabin was easy and the directions given were very clear! Definitely would stay again.
Saw a deer and her baby.

This is our second stay at Bobcat Run. Everything from the online booking process to our actual stay went smoothly. The cabin is in a quiet rural setting full of wildlife and overlooking a small goat farm. This trip, we saw deer, fox, turkey, and rabbits. The turkeys were very friendly and followed our car. The house is immaculate with very comfortable mattresses and is well stocked with essentials. We loved the crow from the morning rooster, a nightly hot tub dip, the crisp fresh air, and the beautiful view from the front porch. One of her favorite stays in the high country!

Nice and Private Cabin

Great place to get away to private surroundings. VRBO photos were accurate. Cabin was very clean. House well stocked. We did day trips to Blowing Rock, Valley Cruises, Banner Elk, and Grandfather Mountain, and swam in the swimming hole with waterfall that was a short drive from cabin that we found by asking a local resident for directions. We had a great getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Erika Hulse

Host profile image
We live in the Raleigh area of NC and have been going to camp in the High Country area of North Carolina for over 20 years. We hope you enjoy this cabin as much as we do! Every year, we continue to fall in love with the breathtaking scenery and serene atmosphere. There is so much to do in the area, and we know you will want to plan plenty of time to experience everything northwestern NC has to offer!

Why they chose this property

Our cabin is close to all the activities and places you'll want to check out while in the Boone area. There are three skiing locations nearby including Beech Mountain, Sugar and Appalachian. Moreover, we have always enjoyed going to Grandfather Mountain, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and many other local vistas to admire jaw-dropping, one-of-a-kind views. Beyond that, the Watauga River and Lake are mere minutes away for all kinds of recreational water activities, hiking on the Appalachian Trail, and intimate encounters with nature. For a different kind of getaway experience, ladies will enjoy shopping in Boone, Blowing Rock and West Jefferson--the plethora of stores in each town has something for everyone to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

The cabin is super clean. We also are pet lovers. We know your dog will enjoy playing in the yard in the cool weather.

The cabin is located just off of Hwy 321, with easy access to all area attractions. It is only 20 minutes from downtown Boone and 15 minutes to Valle Crucis and Watauga Lake! The cabin is private but not isolated which is nice. There is fun for all ages in Boone! Enjoy Tweetsie Railroad which has rides and activities for children ages 2-6. There is tubing and skiing for the older teenagers. For seniors who want to beat the heat, there are nice restaurants and cultural events at the University, ASU. The Appalachian Trail is nearby for those who enjoy hiking and exploring. We've equipped the cabin well and it has awesome on-site activities to handle either a quiet romantic getaway or family vacation. We have a giant Jenna, giant rug checkers, puzzles, games, a cooler for picnics and more. We've worked hard to make Bobcat Run a cabin everyone can enjoy and make lifelong memories in.

There are 2 exterior security cameras that are pointed at the driveway. They only monitor the property when vacant. They will be disarmed upon the guests arrival.
