Quiet Cabin in the beautiful North Carolina woods on 12 acres in a secure gated community. 15 minute drive to downtown Banner Elk for restaurants and shops. We really enjoyed hiking in the area. Multiple places to hike within a 30 minute radius and a big bonus of this VRBO was that we could bring our Aussie with us!

We had a fantastic stay here at this creekside cabin. Mike was a great communicator. The cabin was clean, cozy and equipped with everything you need for a peaceful stay. The front porch, back deck and creekside sitting platform were all wonderful. The interior is so inviting and comfortable.

We enjoyed our stay, the cabin is very cozy and secluded. Very private setting, beautiful property. Included all basic kitchen supplies, linens and bathroom needs. Host was very pleasant to communicate with. Very close to all major cities; banner elk, boone, and linville. We would definitely stay again.

This little cabin is perfect for a secluded, peaceful getaway. Nobody around, yet close enough to shopping, eating, hiking, and recreation. Mike was an absolute delight to work with. We will be back.

We really enjoyed our stay in Mike’s cozy cabin! It has everything you need! We loved the fireplace and the patio and how private and quiet it is. The only feedback I have is that upstairs mattress is a little firm (not a big deal) and there were some cobwebs here and there that could be cleaned up (again, not a big deal). Overall we were very happy here and will absolutely stay again!!
