  Brand new cabin. Beautiful view. Super organized and clean. Cabin has everything you have in your own house, only thing you need is grocery shop. Fire place spectacular ! Owners explained everything step by step before the arrive date that we didn't need to contact them at all . Planning to go back same time this year. Friends already got info of this cabin, they were loving all pics posted in Facebook while we were there.

  It is so beautiful we hate to call it a cabin, feels more like a lodge. Great views, hiking, sunrises,evenings on the deck under the propane heater. Dont miss the resturants and shops in Blowing Rock. We would highly recomend this for your next mountain vacation

  We were a group of 4 couples. The Lodge was absolutely perfect in every way. David and Karan are excellent communicators throughout the entire process. They are lightning fast to respond to any question or concern. The photos in the listing barely touch how beautiful the view is. The sunrises are spectacular every day, and watching the leaves change in the valley below was awe inspiring. My family rents houses on vrbo at least a few times a year and this place is by far the best one we have had. It is on our permanent list of places to return to. The kitchen is a fully stocked cooks kitchen. This is huge for someone like me that is an avid gourmet cook. This kitchen was perfect. Miles of counter space, every last detail thought out. Every time a drawer looking for a utensil I found it. The appliances are also top of the line and perform beautifully. The bedrooms are huge!!! Beds are divinely comfortable, with fantastic all cotton sheets and comfortable pillows. Definitely 5 star worthy. The bathrooms are also quite divine, and very private. Heated floors keep your feet toasty when it's cold outside, and the showers are great and very relaxing. Did you forget to bring something, don't worry, it's already there waiting for you. The Lodge is so clean that you can eat off of the floor! The place is pristine and maintained well above what would be expected. This is not a dusty, musty, mountain log cabin. This is a Luxury Lodge perched high on a mountain top that will cater to every need and desire you may have.

  Owner response: Our goal has always been to build a base of repeat guests. To do that we know we must exceed your expectations in every way. We will continue to enhance the "Log Cabin Experience" We are humbled by your praise and honored to have you as our guests. Thanks Dave & Karan

  My stay at this cabin far exceeded my expectations. The house is very well-appointed, well-stocked, beautifully maintained, and offers a FANTASTIC view. It was a great location for a nice long-weekend retreat. The owners are GREAT to deal with. We're already planning a stay there next year!

  This place was absolutely amazing! Gorgeous view and great time with friends. It was secluded; however close enough to enoy our canoe trip on the New River. The kids loved the loft and spent the evenings playing games, while the adults enjoyed good food, beverages, and conversations ;-) The kitchen was fully stocked with kitchen equipment, which made making meals a breeze. We can't wait to come back again! Thank you so much for a fantastic weekend!!!

  We had a fantastic time at Karen and Dave's beautiful home. The view is fantastic! We sat on the porch, drank coffee, and enjoyed the quiet. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed to make meals with. We had fun playing Trivial Pursuit, dominoes and cards! The house has all the modern necessities, but it's very cozy and homey. My husband loved listening to Pandora. Karen and Dave are very organized and have anticipated everything that makes staying here work. The information sent to us gave us alot of important details that were helpful. They were very easy to work with. It could not have been a better weekend-we're definately coming back!

  This beautiful mountain home and landscape were made even more beautiful by the snowfall that we had on our getaway weekend. My husband, one of our son, and his friend enjoyed this property very much. Being from WI and MN, we weren't phased by the lady bugs that were also visiting the "cabin" that weekend, but over the course of the three days we were there, my son killed seven wasps. Probably a nest that needs to be taken care of. We had a little bit of trouble with connectivity when using Netflix (lots of buffering) so would probably bring DVDs next time for the evenings. The owners were very accessible and helpful when we had questions. I would definitely recommend this property. The kitchen is nothing short of amazing. Sunsets are gorgeous and worth getting up for - even for a non-morning person like myself. I actually set my alarm to get up and take photos! Beds are comfortable. Do be sure that you have a 4WD or AWD vehicle if you are visiting during the snow season!!!

  Owner response: Sorry about the wasp, we have waged a very aggressive anti wasp campaign and will monitor that very closely. The sunrises are very moving. No two are the same and I fine myself taking photos each morning. Glad you had a great time and we look forward to having you back. Dave & Karan

  We were a group of 8 adults looking for a place to stay during our yearly ski trip. This was our first time staying at this cabin and all I can say is that it not only met but it exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of space and the open layout allowed us to spend a lot of time together. The location of the cabin is very isolated which is nice but it does take about 30 minutes to get to any restaurants or stores so make sure you do you shopping early. The view from the cabin is simply breath taking. Everyone in our group made it a point to wake up early to watch the sun rise every morning. Everything about our stay was excellent and we cannot wait until next years trip. This place will surely become our new spot.

  My wife, two young boys and myself loved this luxury cabin, which has spectacular views and good hikes all around. It has been perfectly fitted out by Dave and Karan - brilliant kitchen - with great attention to detail while retaining an authentic rustic character. Our kids spent hours reading in front of the roaring fire. From here we made trips to the Apalachian ski resort, which was terrific, and to West Jefferson. The cabin is right off the Blue Ridge Parkway, which added to its appeal.
