About this property

Appalachian Mountain Evergreen Retreat

Nestled in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, this charming cabin offers the perfect retreat for nature lovers and those seeking serenity in a wooded setting. Surrounded by lush forests, the cabin exudes rustic charm while providing all the modern comforts. With three spacious bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms, this is the ideal space for families or friends looking to reconnect with each other and nature. The cabin's open floor plan ensures that you can enjoy the beauty of the outdoors from the comfort of your living room, thanks to the large windows that flood the space with natural light. Or, just relax in the newly installed Jacuzzi six-person hot tub.

The main floor features a master bedroom with a king-sized bed and an en-suite bathroom, a second bedroom with a queen bed, and a full bathroom. The modern kitchen, equipped with granite countertops and state-of-the-art appliances, invites you to prepare meals together before relaxing in the cozy living room, complete with electric reclining sofas and gas log fireplace. Upstairs, you’ll find a second master bedroom with ample space and a private en-suite bathroom, along with a loft space designed for fun. A variety of games make the loft a perfect gathering spot for all ages, while the futon provides additional sleeping space for extra guests.

Outside, a 360-degree wraparound gated porch offers a peaceful place to relax with a cup of coffee or enjoy the sounds of nature in the evening. Take advantage of the gas grill, Blackstone grill and charcoal grills for outdoor dining, and explore the walking trails that wind through the surrounding woods. We also have a six-person hot tub that is available for an additional setup and cleaning fee of $50 (please add to the reservation if you plan to use).

For those who love outdoor adventures, the cabin’s proximity to local attractions makes it an ideal home base. Just minutes away, the Blue Ridge Parkway offers scenic drives and hiking trails, while the nearby New River is perfect for canoeing and fishing. Visit Zaloo’s Canoes or River Girl Fishing in nearby Jefferson for unforgettable river experiences. Nature lovers will also enjoy hiking in Mount Jefferson State Natural Area, just a short drive from the cabin. For a family-friendly outing, consider horseback riding at Burnt Hill Stables or exploring the charming town of West Jefferson, known for its art galleries, local restaurants, and the famous Ashe County Cheese Factory.

Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, this cabin provides the perfect escape into the mountains, where the beauty of nature is right outside your door.

This is a non-smoking and pet friendly house.

A Great Getaway Dwelling

Overall my experience at this location was great. I would recommend staying at this cabin/rental to anyone. The owners were very responsive to any question that I had during my stay. The cabin/rental was well furnished, extra clean and very spacious. A great place for two individuals or a large family. I definitely enjoyed my stay and would rent this cabin again.

Roomy cabin in the mountains

Cabin was spacious and well appointed. Very nice neighbors who made us feel welcome! Mattresses were a tad too firm for us. Please put in a firepit, would make the evenings more enjoyable. Thank you for the use of your home :)

Richard, We appreciate your feedback and look forward to you staying with us again. I wish you had contacted us during your stay, as we have a solo portable fire pit that was by the front door that is available for guest to use at their leisure. We have had a recent guest that let us know that was one of the highlights of their trip, to sit by the fire at night. We also plan to add a fixed fire pit at some point in the near future. Thank you again for staying with us and come back any time. Anna and Gene

Relaxing and Awesome

Our group of six ladies arrived to our Fall decorated vacay getaway feeling like we were welcomed home. The home was beautiful inside and out. Thank you to the hosts! We plan to make a trip back next Fall if possible. We made friend memories on the wraparound porch. The bedrooms and baths perfect for restful sleep and bathing. The kitchen was the heart of our stay. Our novice attempts at pool were fun. Fun filled trip sightseeing to local wineries loaded with laughter!

Peace and Quite

Had a wonderful stay in the cabin. Very clean and set up with two bedrooms on ground level suited our needs perfectly. Brought our two beagles with us and was great that entire wrap around deck was enclosed so they had the freedom to run and not worry about getting away. Great location for what we had planned. 20 mins from Boone and Jefferson. Gene was very responsive to our questions about the property as well as tips of local stores. You have to shop at the Ingles store. Best grocery store ever. Very peaceful location with lots of seating around the deck to enjoy nature and just chill. Would rent again when travel west in the future. Marlene & Topper Young

Beautiful home

Stayed for Thanksgiving 2023! House was beautifully decorated for Christmas, even had a huge live tree in the loft! We found the beds to be comfortable, even the futon in loft was great! Lots of extra pillows, blankets, sheets and all were like new! Had enough parking for 4 cars! Wrap around deck has amazing views and 2 latching gates, was wonderful for our dogs and child! The deck seating was the best we’ve ever had and we enjoyed our morning coffee there every day! The owners were absolutely wonderful to communicate with, I just can’t say enough about that, it’s so important to have great communication and they went over and above! Everything about the home exceeded our expectations!!!

Quick Weekend Near West Jefferson

Had a quick weekend stay in this house, which we chose for its location and the fact that there were enough first floor bedrooms to work with the older folks in our family. The house was clean and everything worked pretty much as it should. I think some folks mentioned lower water pressure - meh, not a big deal. Front door deadbolt needs to be adjusted a bit, you do have to pull the door closed to help the fancy Yale Nest electronic deadbolt. Again, no biggie. Neighborhood was quiet. In short, if we are travelling with the extended family around Boone/West Jefferson, we would certainly come back.

Great Family Getaway

This is our favorite mountain cabin to date and we’ll definitely be back! My wife and I vacationed here for a long weekend with our 4 kids and my mother-in-law. We are all big fans of Boone and West Jefferson so the location was a great fit in between. My mother-in-law has limited mobility so being able to pull right up to the entrance to the cabin with only 2 small stair steps to access the porch was perfect. Our two older kids (11&14) were big fans of the loft with pool table and arcade game. Our younger kids are both under 2 so the spacious bedroom upstairs was great for accommodating a couple pack n plays for sleeping arrangements. Everyone enjoyed the 360 degree porch with all its features (swing, swinging chairs, picnic table, and corn hole boards). The fact that both porch entrances were gated made it a great safe space for our toddler to play freely. We loved our stay and the attentiveness of the hosts. We will definitely be booking this same house in the future!
