Welcome to Evergreen Lodge — Your Valle Crucis Fall Farmhouse
Tucked into the peaceful mountain valley of Sugar Grove, just 5 minutes from Valle Crucis, Evergreen Lodge is made for experiencing autumn in North Carolina’s High Country.
As the mountains turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold, sip coffee on the deck, gather around the fire pit overlooking the mountains, or unwind in the six-person hot tub beneath the crisp autumn sky. When it’s time to head inside, a full upstairs arcade awaits.
With space for up to 8 guests, Evergreen Lodge puts you just 15 minutes from Boone and 20 minutes from Banner Elk—close to High Country adventures, yet wonderfully peaceful when you return.
Fall Highlights Beautiful fall foliage throughout the Valle Crucis area Fire pit patio overlooking the mountains Six-person hot tub for cool autumn evenings Full upstairs arcade with Skeeball, Pac-Man, and Golden Tee Classic farmhouse character just 5 minutes from Valle Crucis The Living Space
Gather in the cozy living area, complete with a fireplace, a 75-inch TV, and comfortable seating. It’s the perfect spot for movie nights, football weekends, and relaxing fall evenings.
And when everyone’s ready for a little friendly competition, head upstairs to the full arcade for even more fun.
Sleeping Arrangements — Sleeps 8 Main Level: Primary suite with a king bed, private bathroom with double vanity, and High Country hunting-dog décor. Upper Level: Trout-themed bedroom with a king bed, inspired by the brook, brown, and rainbow trout found in local waters. Upper Level: The Blueprint Room with two queen beds, decorated with the home’s original blueprints.
Off the main living area, a dedicated office and flex room offers a desk, pullout sofa, children’s toys and books, and space for a Pack ’N Play.
The Arcade
The upstairs entertainment zone is ready for some serious competition, featuring:
Skeeball Pac-Man arcade Racing arcade Golden Tee Bowling Popcorn maker
Fair warning: the kids probably won’t be the only ones spending time up here!
Outdoor Living
Evergreen Lodge’s outdoor spaces are made for lingering through the season. Enjoy rocking chairs and mountain views from the deck on crisp autumn mornings, gather around the fire pit patio, or end the day with a relaxing soak in the six-person hot tub.

This house was perfect for our trip. Close to downtown Boone, close to Mast General store in Valle Crucis. Absolutely gorgeous views from the deck. Even got to see a bear. Only advice I have for anyone looking to stay here is have 4wd or AWD even in nice weather! We had to reach out once about an issue , and from start to finish it was resolved in 45 minutes. Book this house, it's worth it!
