About this property

Hillside Heaven: Pet friendly cabin with Hot tub, pool table, firepit. Walk to New River!

Welcome to Hillside Heaven, a newly renovated Blue Ridge log cabin where mountain views, river adventures, cozy fireplaces, and plenty of family fun come together for an unforgettable High Country getaway..

Perched on the hillside just above and across the road from the New River, this spacious three-story cabin puts you close to outdoor adventure while giving you plenty of reasons to stay right at home—with a private hot tub, pool table, fire pit, game room, multiple decks, and beautiful mountain scenery.

One of the highlights of staying at Hillside Heaven is easy access to the New River, one of the oldest rivers in the world. Nearby Big Hill Community Park offers river access just a short drive from the cabin, making it easy to spend spring, summer, and fall days tubing, rafting, fishing, or simply enjoying the water. Local outfitters offer tubing and rafting excursions as well as guided fishing trips on the New River and other nearby waterways.

Warm Log Cabin Charm
Step inside the main level and you're greeted by everything you hope to find in a mountain cabin: soaring vaulted ceilings, tongue-and-groove woodwork, hardwood floors, exposed beams, and a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace. Settle into the comfortable living area for a movie on the HDTV, gather around a crackling fire on chilly mountain evenings, or simply enjoy the view through the glass doors overlooking the surrounding mountains.

Those doors open onto a spacious open-air deck where you can sip your morning coffee in the cool mountain air, enjoy an afternoon with a good book, or fire up the gas grill for dinner. Outdoor seating and dining space make the deck a natural gathering place throughout your stay.

The adjacent kitchen and dining area continue the warm cabin atmosphere with wood ceilings and exposed beams. There's room for the whole crew at mealtime, with seating for 12 guests: eight around the dining table and four more at the kitchen bar.

Also on the main level is the primary King suite, complete with an HDTV and private ensuite full bathroom.

Room to Spread Out
Head upstairs to find two inviting Queen bedrooms, each featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, full closets, and direct access to a shared Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The spacious bathroom includes both a jetted tub and separate shower, giving everyone a comfortable place to unwind after a day exploring the mountains.

Downstairs is where the fun really begins. The lower-level bedroom offers two sets of Twin-over-Twin bunk beds, making it a great space for kids or younger guests, along with an ensuite full bathroom that can also be accessed from the game room.

The adjoining den and game room is ready for family tournaments and laid-back evenings with a pool table, Nintendo Switch, HDTV, gas-log fireplace, comfortable sofas, and a collection of games. Whether you're visiting on a rainy afternoon or winding down after a day on the slopes, there's plenty here to keep everyone entertained.

Hot Tub Nights & Fireside Memories
Glass doors from the lower level lead onto a covered deck featuring one of the cabin's most popular amenities: the private hot tub. Sink into the warm water after hiking, skiing, rafting, or sightseeing and enjoy the peaceful mountain setting around you.

Exterior steps lead down to the yard and the newly updated wood-burning fire pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows, telling stories, and lingering outside beneath the mountain sky.

Hillside Heaven also offers central heat and air conditioning, WiFi, a washer and dryer, TVs and a DVD player, two fireplaces, a gas grill, and plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces where your group can gather or spread out.

Adventure in Every Season
When you're ready to explore, Hillside Heaven makes a convenient home base for many of the High Country's favorite destinations. Downtown Boone is only about 8 miles away, while Blowing Rock is approximately 15 miles from the cabin. Tweetsie Railroad and Appalachian Ski Mountain are conveniently located between the two towns.
The Blue Ridge Parkway is less than 10 miles away, putting scenic drives, hiking trails, overlooks, and picnics within easy reach. Valle Crucis, home to the original Mast General Store and beautiful riverfront Valle Crucis Community Park, is about 16 miles away, while Grandfather Mountain is approximately 20 miles away. Winter brings even more adventure, with Hawksnest Snow Tubing and Zipline about 21 miles away, Sugar Mountain Resort approximately 25 miles away, and Beech Mountain Resort around 30 miles away.

Whether your perfect mountain vacation means floating the New River on a summer afternoon, exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway in fall, soaking in the hot tub after a day on the slopes, or gathering around the fireplace on a cool mountain evening, Hillside Heaven combines the timeless character of a log cabin with the comforts and entertainment of a modern vacation home.

Come discover your own little piece of Hillside Heaven in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Beautiful!

We had a great stay! The cabin was clean and well stocked. We loved the view and the location. Perfect for just hanging out, taking long walks, or traveling into town. Close to everything, yet secluded enough to be relaxing. We had fun playing pool, sitting in the hot tub, and playing games with the family. Love this place!

Good stay

We unfortunately were not able to utilize the fire pit due to a burn ban even though it rained on the day of our arrival, and the hot tub cover looked like it was one touch away from breaking in half so out of fear of being charged the $500 replacement cover fee, we didn’t utilize the hot tub either. Still a great stay! Awesome location and good communication

Sweet 16 Celebration

My husband and I booked this property for our daughter surprise Sweet 16 trip. We had 4 teenagers and 5 adults. It was great cabin, plenty of room and the pool table and hot tub were a hit for all ages. Kitchen and linens were some of the best stocked I’ve had in a rental place. Only “surprise” was that the loft bedroom wasn’t completely closed in and had one wall open to the rest of the house. I don’t remember this being in the cabin description or pics. Had we had another adult couple. This could have posed a big inconvenience. Otherwise, the cabin was great and we would definitely recommend staying here.

Perfect for our family!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hillside Heaven! We were in the area for a family wedding and wanted a place where a group of our extended family (7 adults, 5 children, and 3 dogs) could stay as an alternative to a hotel. This property was excellent. There was plenty of space for all of us-- the lower level family/game room was perfect! Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and the pool table. The location was great and the area is beautiful. This was one of the cleanest and most well-stocked rental properties I've visited; there were more than enough linens and towels for everyone and it was a huge bonus that beach towels were provided for the hot tub. There was even a hairdryer and an iron/ironing board upstairs, neither of which I expected to find! There were a few minor repair issues that we have made the property manager aware of, in particular the fact that the upstairs windows seem to have broken sashes (one wouldn't stay open, and three others were extremely difficult to get open). We ended up using the A/C, so the window situation wasn't a problem for us in the long run. Overall, we had a great stay and were very happy with the house!

Not quite as expected

Nice enough - but there are some issues. Pictures make it look large -- it is not. Bedroom upstairs is TINY - should have bunk beds because you literally can't put a carry on anywhere -- you can barely walk around the bed - extremely small and an extremely hard bed - not for adults. Other bedroom upstairs with half wall - great size but should at least have a curtain or something to give privacy. Futon on loft area was a good older kid spot. Main floor - Small kitchen - tight entrance/exit right by the fridge - no dish towels; no garbage bags; Decent supply of pans / pots - not much silverware for a big family. Many outlets throughout house had 1/2 that didn't work; bathroom floor upstairs dirty when arrived; Carpet downstairs had crumbs on it when we arrived. Many neighbors close by - could hear talking and laughing - no flat area for outside "play" except firepit area (which was a good size) with old chairs that were tossed around. Decks have a few very nice chairs and some not so nice. Hot tub good. Nice enough house (nice to have TV upstairs and down), but you need a family that doesn't mind being on top of each other. I'd say this is an all around 3 to 4 out of 5. Housekeeping would help and reality in advertising would help.

Great location

We really enjoyed out stay at Hillside Heaven. The kitchen was stocked well enough for our food choices. There were a few things broken but not a huge deal. Hopefully they will be fixed for future renters. We loved walking down the hill to the river. The house wasn't far from town. We enjoyed the quiet community.
