Yearling - Cozy Log Cabin with Hot Tub between Valle Crucis and Banner Elk
Welcome to Yearling! Picturesque one King bedroom, one bathroom log cabin on Laurel Creek. Located 15 minutes from downtown Valle Crucis and within a 30 minute drive to Beech Mountain Ski, downtown Boone, and Sugar Mountain Ski.
The kitchen has a full fridge with freezer, oven, microwave, plenty of cabinet space, and a drip style coffeemaker for your morning coffee. Enjoy your meals or an evening cocktail at the round dining table. Take in the sunshine in the window nook while you read a few chapters of a great book. Or head outside and relax in the rockers.
This home offers a lovely covered outdoor upper deck as well as an open lower deck with seating and a hot tub. The covered front porch with ramp access, provides a gas grill that is shielded from the rain.
The bedroom has a King sized bed. The bathroom features a double sink, standing shower and separate soaking tub. Sit by the fire in the living room by the gas log fireplace. This room also has a TV with Cable and a DVD player. A washer and dryer are provided for your convenience.
