About this property
Custom Mountain Cabin with Incredible Views
*Allows pets with an additional fee.
Welcome to What A View! This custom-built cabin offers breathtaking mountain views in an emerging luxury community, just 4 miles from downtown Banner Elk and 5 minutes from Banner Elk Winery. Both Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain are less than 20 minutes away, while Valle Crucis, home to the original Mast General Store and the popular Valle Crucis Riverside Community Park, is only 18 minutes away. A 40-minute drive will take you to Boone or the famous Grandfather Mountain State Park.
“What A View!” is a stunning post-and-beam chalet that features a wall of windows in the main-floor living room and an expansive deck, showcasing the magnificent scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This creates a memorable backdrop for a fantastic getaway in the High Country. The open-concept main-floor living space includes a leather sectional couch, a gourmet kitchen, and a dining area. The main-floor master bedroom features a king bed and an ensuite bathroom with a large stone-and-tile step-in shower.
Upstairs, you'll find a loft with a workspace along with two bunk rooms equipped with XL twin-over-queen bunk beds, sharing an upstairs bathroom. The downstairs bedroom has a California king bed and a double-size pull-out sofa that is perfect for children. There are also two twin-size sleeping chairs for additional sleeping spots. The lower-level family room includes a wall-mounted TV and theater-style seating, a mini kitchen, and a ping-pong table, providing ample space for fun and relaxation. Sliding glass doors in the family room open to a pebble-style patio area with a path leading to a luxury hot tub that overlooks the mountains.
“What A View!” allows up to 2 dogs with your reservation, with a weight limit of 50 pounds each. The cabin includes WiFi, four Smart TVs for your streaming accounts, and a washer and dryer. Central heating and air conditioning ensure year-round comfort. Please note that the gravel driveway has a steep incline, so 4WD or AWD is required for winter travelers. An EV charger is conveniently located in the parking area. The outdoor fire pit is currently incomplete, so please do not use the concrete fire pit area.
*Due to location, internet speeds may vary depending on the weather. Using multiple devices may adversely affect streaming services and slow internet speeds. This issue is currently intermittent and is being resolved. PLEASE NOTE: This home has multiple exterior cameras. 1 camera on the side of the deck, overlooking the parking area, 1 camera under deck looking at exterior doors, walkway, and garbage, 1 camera facing front main floor deck looking over fire table, 1 camera facing entry deck and walkway.

Upon arrival there were some broken items, beer bottles outside, hot tub barely any water, so unable toBe used and entering the house, there were so many live and dead flies than I’ve ever seen in my entire life.
We had a great stay with our adult children and grandchildren. The house is beautiful, well kept, and provides spectacular views of the mountains. It snowed one day, which made the the trip a blast for my 3 year old granddaughter. There was plenty of space for our party of seven. All three levels of the house had spacious bedrooms. The lower level offers a nice private space for adults or kids to hang out and watch TV or play ping pong. I would love to come back when the weather is warmer, so we can do outdoor activities without getting hypothermia. Snow tubing in 19 weather was not pleasant. There are plenty of great places to eat and get groceries near by. The host was easy to contact online and always responded in a timely manner. This was my first time booking with VRBO. Overall it was a great experience.

Beautiful views but the driveway was very very steep
We enjoyed the cabin overall and it was as pictures described. Plenty of space for all of the family. The view was also beautiful. I would only want whoever is considering to rent this unit be very aware of the driveway. It is a must that You drive a 4 wheel drive with chains, if there is predictions of snow. We got stuck three times in the driveway alone. Everywhere else was fine. It was just getting to the
