We loved the location and the views were great. You can see mountains on three sides. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. Very cozy cabin!
Perfect location to be near many of the local golf courses

This was more than a golf trip; it was a complete disregard for rules and regulations. It was an illegal third-party rental that seemed to be an underage drink fest. There were property damages, and the entire Cabin was left in a total disaster, with liquor bottles and insect bugs crawling through the trash. Marks on floors and door knobs pulled off of doors.
Perfect if you are looking for relaxation and seclusion. The house is beautifully located!

Great place to vacation!
Wonderful cabin with gorgeous views and privacy in a central location to Boone, Wilkesboro, and Elkin and an easy drive to Winston-Salem. We enjoyed spending the holiday season in the mountains!
Location and house were beautiful and so close for hiking at Stone Mountain with a peaceful waterfall. Definitely will be back to get away from the hustle & bustle.
Great place
We enjoy the cabin and the view
The cabin it’s really comfortable for families and close to rivers
we spent time hiking and swimming at river
The home is beautiful, clean with many supplies. The deck is massive , wrapped around the home. We really enjoyed staying there during MerleFest for 4 days. The communication was excellent and the host did not disappoint our very enjoyable stay. The home is a definite 10. Thank you
The host should provide small items that don’t perish like coffee and soaps as the biggest examples. With no grocery store or convenience store located for miles away from the cabin, little necessities would go a long way in hosting this house to guests. Also, the welcome wording needs to be updated and proof read. A lot of unnecessary statements and repeating of oneself.
We were in town for my niece's wedding in Elkin, NC and booked this beautiful cabin. The property was peaceful and secluded and perfect for what we needed. The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The communication was excellent, and the host was great to work with. Answered all the questions we had. The location was only a 27-minute drive to the wedding venue. It was fall and the leaves on the drive were spectacular. We loved that the cabin was in a gated community which gave us a sense of security. The guys enjoyed a few games of pool. We wished we had more time to spend at the cabin but with us being there for a wedding we didn't get to spend a lot of time there. We definitely will be returning for another stay. I would recommend it anyone that would love a nice peaceful quite getaway. I've added a few pictures that my sister took during the stay.
We stayed three nights for MerleFest in this nicely equipped, secluded cabin. It’s located in the gated community of Bell Mountain and has a nice view from the deck.
The cabin is equipped with all of the essentials including excellent internet. I gave an overall score of 3 Stars as a few fairly obvious touches were missing such as: No coat hangers in closets, no hooks to hang clothes in bathrooms, the beds are ok, but just barely.

I thank you for Interesting comments however, there are wooden hangers in the closets and as always guest move them from one closet to another. My cleaning crew verified they were still there. As far as you oblivious touches remember you were renting a Cabin not a home or hotel to live in. What happened to enjoying nature and the simple things.
Our stay here was very enjoyable. All was exactly as described in the listing. Very private and quiet. My family and I were very comfortable. The absolute only thing I could see that may need a bit of an upgrade is the grill on the deck. But that is definately not a deal breaker. If I have to opportunity to stay there again I for sure will. I recommend it to anyone that will be in that area to give it a go.
The cabin it was good but if you want to add additional payment don’t laid and say something that is not true because we left everything clean thank you and a have some recommendations to you the bed 🛌 is not comfortable at all thank you

My cleaning crew sent nine pictures with dirty dishes in the sink piled up, food left in the microwave and thrash left inside and outside to prove otherwise. As for the additional charge it was for human pee damages to the wooden floor in two different areas and extra chemicals that had to be purchased . This was a justified additional charge. I pray and hope you never never disrespect someone else’s property as you did mine.

Great
The place being new has little not to like about it other than as one of the other reviewers mentioned it's a bit sparse on furniture. So there are few places to set stuff like your wallet on a dresser or a bed stand.. Some hooks and shelves would be good too but hey the place is clean, the pool table was a constant source of entertainment, the TV's are nice and the wifi worked great. A ping pong table top to put on the pool table to change up the game, a poker table, dart board and some neon signs and I could have moved in. Bell mountain is nice and quiet. Pick up what you need at the Walmart in Elkin and there's a new Dollar General not too far a way for what you forgot and you can stay on the mountain for a few days without having to come down. Which is why I go there .

As we are new we are adding additional items as we are grateful to the our guest positive reviews. There are night stands in each bedroom to put a wallet, cell phone or keys on. The basement/game room area we are adding as we listen to the great suggestions from our customers.
This cabin is exactly as pictured in the listing--super clean and snug/well insulated. The location is quite isolated, so best to go here expecting to get away (and stay away) from it all! The owner provided good directions, so we didn't have trouble finding it, even in the dark. The living room furniture is comfortable and the kitchen is well appointed. My husband discovered a path leading down the hill from the back of the cabin that gave him access to the Flat Rock Ridge trailhead.
4 stars instead of 5 because the home is a little sparse on furnishings, making it not quite as cozy as it should be. It'd be nice to have a bedside lamp for each person, for example, and lamps and throw blankets by the sofas and futon. The beds seem new but are super squeaky for some reason (the covers on the box springs maybe? whatever it was, it was maddening for the bed to be so loud every time you turned over). It'd also be helpful to have a notebook in the house with information about the closest stores and restaurants, and how to operate/troubleshoot the gas fireplace (it wasn't intuitive).

As far as furnishings it is rustic & simplistic as best with warmth. There were directions & instructions provided with a lot great detail especially how to operate the gas fireplace with detail instructions and who to call if not able to put it into operation. Late hour emails are not the way to communicate when phone numbers are provided for assistance. This is mentioned because most forget to read the instructions and directions once there which are extremely helpful.
Very nice cabin. My husband and sister stayed with me at the beautiful, spacious cabin. Cleanliness and accuracy of listing is spot on. Very private! The only downside are the “loud” bed springs, as stated by other tenants. Linens and pillows we good though!
We loved the home, it is beautiful! You will not be disappointed. During our stay the only complaints we had was a few lighting fixtures needed new bulbs, and there were no chairs at the fire pit. Easy fixes! Over all we had an amazing time. Also, in the future this property could benefit from a new grill.
Very secluded. Enjoyed the sense of security from a gated community. Bring items to cook as here you truly get away from it all. Super quiet, relaxing, and a great way to enjoy a family vacation away from it all.
The cleanest rental I’ve ever had!
Would stay again.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Cline
I am a retired Marine who served my God, my Country and my Corps faithfully for over 30 years. During my active duty time I was able to travel the world and served during the cold war years and over three wars during three decades. After seeing so much of the world I finally found a place that offered peace of mind and I wanted to share my experience of peace with others so I built "Sanctuary" a Luxury Cabin.

What makes this property unique
Enjoy breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway from the landing of a wooding deck. I enjoy hiking on Stone Mountain with my best friend. Doughton Park is another must while visiting the area. There is nothing more amazing than enjoying a great cup of coffee in the early morning watching the sun rise on the deck or while watching an amazing sunset over the mountains. The view is definitely mesmerizing.
