Om overnatningsstedet

Fern Hill Overlook, fantastisk udsigt, Hot Tub, Privat indstilling

Beliggende på 2 acres på de vestlige skråninger af North Carolina Appalachian Mountains, Fern Hill Overlook tilbyder en storslået udsigt over bjergene, masser af privatlivets fred, og er let tilgængelig til lokale attraktioner og aktiviteter.

Kurve op ad indkørslen mellem rock-afsatser og rhododendron til en rustik hytte, som ikke er let synlig fra vejen. En stor udskåret bjørn hilser dit syn, som du runde bøjningen i indkørslen.

Park under dækket og gå op ad stentrappen. På toppen af ​​trinnene, der er en bænk store nok til to og en sten terrasse. Det er et fantastisk sted for stille refleksion. Gå gennem huset eller følg dækket til verandaen for betagende udsigt over bjergene og et glimt af floden i vinteren. Ingen andre hytter er mellem dig og floden. Læg de to gyngestole sammen og dele naturens skønhed og majestæt med nogen speciel. Eller, blød i det varme karbad på dækket og nyde den naturskønne udsigt og skov indstilling. Sørg for at holde øje med hjorte forbi, men respekter venligst denne egenskab som et fristed for de indfødte flora og fauna.

Denne hytte har mange faciliteter, herunder fuld længde vinduer, en opdateret køkken og åben grundplan. Det er pænt møbleret med rustik stil møbler og accenter. Det store soveværelse med en læsning område tager fuld fordel af vinduer og udsigt. Brænde er fastsat for brændeovnen, der holder kabinen hyggeligt i selv de koldeste vejr.

Beliggende kun 25 minutter fra Boone eller Blowing Rock, det er en kort tur til shopping, touring, eller skiløb. Hovedet i den anden retning, og du kan tilbringe dagen i Tennessee på Watauga Lake! Gennemse samlingen af ​​bøger i kabinen til at læse på en regnvejrsdag.

Bjørn billeder og tal indgår i indretningen. Tæl bjørne i og omkring kabinen og slå i din samlede for at bekræfte, om du har fundet dem alle. Yderligere oplysninger er tilgængelige.

Fern Hill Overlook er tilgængelig året rundt, men fire hjul drev eller kæder anbefales til denne ejendom i vintermånederne på grund af den betydelige hældning af indkørslen.

Selvom kabinen ikke har central air-condition, de relativt høje elevation og loft fans normalt holde det behageligt året rundt. Der er 3 varmekilder under køligere måneder til at holde kabinen varm og hyggelig. Som en rustik hytte i skoven, muligheden for en udendørs brandspredning til kabinen er en bekymring. Derfor er ingen udendørs brande (grill til madlavning, ildsteder, etc.) tilladt. Wildlife såsom hjorte og kalkun kan lejlighedsvis ses krydser ejendommen. Disse 2 acres skal respekteres som et fristed for dyr. Ingen udledning af våben af ​​nogen art er tilladt.

The cabin was absolutely perfect for our trip to the area. Secluded but conveniently located to all of the area's attractions. The front porch has incredible views of the mountains, whether for morning coffee or evening beverages. Sandra, our hostess, was very forthcoming with information about the cabin and especially directions. I highly recommend following those directions and not your GPS. We definitely look forward to our next return visit and stay at Fern Hill Overlook!!!

In our message exchange, you said you had a "great trip" so I was surprised to read your comments. My upgrades so far this year included a mini-split HVAC system, Keurig coffemaker, dehumidifier and a ROKU device on the TV. Adding air conditioning was a major improvement! The bedskirt in the master bedroom was put on brand new in August. Yes, the furniture has been in place for awhile. Personally, I like most of what is provided for a rustic cabin. In the recent past, I've added ceiling fans, improved lighting, a SMART TV, a new refrigerator, new GE oven/cooktop and replaced both toilets. So, my focus has been function and comfort. I do expect to buy a new master bedroom mattress and replace the vinyl floor at some point. But for anyone looking for new, fully updated interior and furniture, this cabin is not the best choice. It sits on 2 wooded acres and there is significant property maintenance cost to me. The property was greatly affected by Hurricane Helene and it has been an huge effort to recover from that disaster in Western NC. I've tried to keep the rental cost reasonable for my guests so I have not, and do not plan to replace most of the furniture in order to offer something newer.

Great cabin for a quiet get away

Really enjoyed the serenity of the location and feel of a mountain cabin. If you're looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and want to enjoy a quiet evening in a cozy mountain cabin with great views - this is the place. Owner was very communicative and responsive to communications and inquiries.

Relaxing Weekend

Needed a weekend away w privacy, view and basic comforts. Fern Hill met all those needs. Cabin is tidy and has all the supplies for a nice stay. Close to Boone and the lake. Owner prepped the steep driveway and our front wheel drive handled it with no trouble. Enjoyed our stay!

Great value compared to others. Good view of the mountains and clean. About 25-35 minutes from beech skiing. Driveway is steep and may require chains if weather is icy. Verify that the hot tub is working before booking, though.

Great View - Great Time!

It was our second wedding anniversary and we wanted a private home with a great view and boy, did we get it! This house is comfortably appointed, and although I would not consider it a luxury home, it was very cozy and endearing. Loved the wood stove! The mattresses could probably use an upgrade but that’s about the only suggestion I would make. It really was very charming and we definitely plan on coming back next year. The owner was very responsive and helped us several times with quick communication.

We were only getting a place to stay for a race. Trying to find the house was a little tricky because the directions stop you in the middle of the road past the drive way it self. The drive way is extremely steep so be aware of that! The house is a little out dated only one tv and it’s in the living room. Be mindful that the master bed room doesn’t have any blinds or curtains as well. If you are comfortable with that then this house is perfect for you! We also had a little visitor while we were there. A mouse was in our room both nights. I understood with it turning cold that those little creatures would be coming out but as someone who doesn’t like mice or rodents over all it was very hard for me to sleep at all. With it being such a last minute trip I didn’t complain too much about it I tried to see the positive side of it. If you are one with nature then this house is perfect for you. The view it self is beautiful. You have privacy for sure! The host was very quick with response as well so that really made me feel good!

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry that your GPS stopped you past the driveway itself. I have posted a photo of the bear motif mailbox beside the driveway and will make sure to bring that to the attention of future tenants. As you know, the cabin is not easily visible from the road. The driveway is fairly steep so a slow and steady pace is best until you get used to it. I am so sorry about the mouse... it is a cabin in the woods and sometimes a mouse will seek entry when the weather gets cold. I blocked out a week afterwards for my pest control company to address the problem and I'm sorry they couldn't get there during your stay.

Dirty

This place is very dirty and dusty, my daughter is still suffering 3 days later from allergies. Lots of little problems like the fridge light not working. Charging an electric vehicle doesn’t work here, not sure why. The hot tub is nice but shallow. We turned it down to 100 but it dropped to 90. Maybe a problem with the thermostat.

I'm sorry you were disappointed with your stay. I will address your cleaning concerns with my housekeeper. I did not know the fridge light was not working, you are the first tenant to report that issue. You are also the first tenant of whom I'm aware who had an electric vehicle. I don't know the requirements for charging an electric vehicle so I can't explain why the outside outlets did not work for you to charge your vehicle.

Photos and property are outdated

The photos on this property must have been taken yrs ago. The property has been neglected (I assume) for some time. Everything is old, uncomfortable, broken, dusty and rusty. I didn’t want to ruin my daughters birthday weekend so I didn’t say anything to the host in front of her. The view is this properties best feature but ruined by road noise during the busy traffic hours. You need 4 wheel drive to get up the driveway and you couldn’t pay me to walk down to the gazebo. I would never book this rental again. They should not post photos of this property from when it was cared for, it’s deceptive.

I am sorry that you were disappointed. I will address your comment about dust with my housekeeper. The yard service has weed-whacked the front yard in July. The stove, dishwasher and refrigerator have all been replaced in the last 5 years. A new ceiling fan was added to the second bedroom. The toilet in the Master Bathroom was replaced this month. Over the last 10 years, a number of 2 wheel drive vehicles have accessed the property, but some drivers are more comfortable with 4 wheel drive. As mentioned in the comments, the driveway has significant slope. It is scraped periodically by the lawn service company to smooth out the gravel. The furniture is older, but the linens are washed between tenants and the sofa vacuumed. At a future date, I plan to replace the TV with a flat screen smart TV. Right now, I am looking for a replacement hot tub. The property is still being maintained. I will take your comments into consideration and update photos as appropriate on my next trip to the cabin.

Beautiful views but needs updating.

Pros: Beautiful views and low rental cost. Cons: One TV which is a console (old school) no HDMI to play Play Station or XBOX on. You have to put wood and start a fire in a wood burning stove to heat up living room. Small cabin, toilets old and low to ground, not much plates, glasses, or utensils. Jacuzzi has a leak that leaks onto your vehicle in parking spot but, she did let me know a couple of days before arrival. Also very adamant about leaving by 11 am as next renters are coming that day. Just needs updating and upkeep. By the way we drove a small front wheel drive coupe and didn't have any issues getting up the driveway as I have raced cars in the past and knew how to navigate up the driveway in a aggressive fashion. Thank you for the stay.

I am glad that you enjoyed the views. The cabin is a great retreat for people who want a natural setting in which to experience the beauty of the mountains. There are actually 3 means of heating the living/dining area. The primary source of heat is an energy efficient rectangular ceramic heater located near the sofa. It is controlled by the thermostat just inside the entry to the main part of the cabin. (There is a second ceramic heater and related thermostat in the master bedroom.) In addition, there is a baseboard heater along the dining room wall. As you discovered, the third means of heating in the living/dining area of the cabin is the woodstove which generates a significant amount of heat although I think most of my tenants light it for the ambience. Firewood is provided. As far as plates, the cabinets contain place settings for 6 in solid green and 4 dinner plates in a bear motif. Occupancy is listed as 4-5 so I felt that would be sufficient. Since I purchased the cabin, I have modified it to include a dishwasher, stone steps, rustic railing and patio, covered outside entry with bench, and wrap-around deck. The refrigerator and dryer are new. New sheets and bedspread were purchased and replaced in March. A ceiling fan was added to the second bedroom. In general, I have opted to add function rather than replace what is in working order. The leak in the hot tub does not cause a significant drop in water level or otherwise affect the usage of the tub. Once the weather is warmer, I plan to schedule a repair. Just 2 weeks before you arrived a dump truck load of gravel was spread on the driveway which was scraped and re-surfaced. I believe it is important to maintain a steady forward motion up the entire length of the sloped driveway. Experienced drivers will not stop on the incline and then attempt to resume their progress. Taking it too fast can scatter gravel and deteriorate the driveway over time. The TV has a basic channel service. Board games and puzzles are in the bookcase for entertainment. Normal check-in time is 2 PM and check-out is 11 AM. Three hours is the minimum period for my cleaning crew to arrive, do laundry, change linens, clean bathrooms, vacuum, dust, check chemicals in the hot tub, pack up and leave. Thank you for your cooperation with my standard check-out time so the cabin was prepared to be inviting to the next incoming vacationers that day.

Boone House Rental

I must say the view was beautiful. Unfortunately, it rained the entire time so we left Saturday morning. I would like to say a few things about the house house. The coffee pot did not work properly, the heating unit never got warm so we had cold coffee. The stairs to enter the house were horrible, in my opinion they were not safe. Several stones were loose. Stone stairs are beautiful if placed properly. These were NOT. Also, the mailbox is covered with trees and vines, so you don't see the number. You will never find this house in the dark. We past it several times. A stick sign with even just the number in white so that it can be seen would be great. The outside lights are suppose to be on a timer and we were told not to touch them, they were still on at 3a.m.. Waste of electric for sure. The house had the basic items that you need. We only made oatmeal in the microwave for breakfast, no other meals, but there was plenty of dishes, silverware and pots and pans. Have no idea if the stove works because we did not use it. Overall, the house itself was nice, but we would not re-rent only because it was to far outside of Boone. I was told that it was 10 minutes, but it was actually 25 minutes. I did not want to post my negative response, because they could easily be fixed. The owner probably is not even aware. I just wish it was not raining. So, when we return in August, I will find another house rental closer to Boone. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your home. Jerry, Terry and our granddaughter Emma who attend APP State.

Great cabin, great views, good location

I had an an overall great experience at this cabin! We came up on a day where it snowed out of the blue and had fun using the wood burning stove. Everything was nice and clean, with the exception of some hair caught in the drain that may have been missed. We enjoyed staying at the cabin for a day and doing literally *nothing* but relax, watch 90s sitcoms, puzzles, and board games. We were disappointed that the hot tub didn't work, we made an extra effort to try and get it work- even filling it with water out of the hose. We texted with the owner and she had a pool.trch come out the next day to check it out for us. We've stayed at cabins before where the owners are straight up negligent and let their cabins make them $$$ until there's no value left in it, or its ready to fall off a mountain. Looking around the cabin, you can tell the owner cares for the property and keeps it maintained. They may have put down new carpet recently, painted the bedrooms, new sheet sets, etc. They even installed a mini dishwasher! The cabin has a lot of country charm, is comfy, and a great cabin to visit- especially for a quick weekend getaway. You're 20 minutes from Beech Mountain, 20 minutes from Boone, and 30 minutes from Blowing Rock. Highly recommend this cabin! Advice to owner: upgrade the hot tub, upgrade the microwave (it warms food but not properly)

My wife an I enjoyed our stay overall. The property was in a great location and the views were awesome. I enjoyed getting up each morning to watch the sun come up from the living room. Very close to Boone as well which was convenient. My suggestions for improvement are below and these could take the listing to a higher level. The TV and channel offering both need an overall. New smart TVs are not that expensive and would give folks many more options. I know a basic dish offering is cheaper but moving to the next tier level would not be a bad idea. The mattress and bedding in the main bedroom should probably get replaced as well. Not terrible but it could be a lot better. I can not remember if the listing stated that the main heat was all from baseboard style units but that may make a difference to some folks. The house had a tendency to stay pretty cool and when it it cold outside that may be an issue for some. The rock stairs were really cool visually but a number of them need to get secured down to prevent a possible accident. We felt like we had to watch our step (literally) every time we came in or left out. We did not use the hot tub but it did leak constantly. They would be something to get fixed asap. The listing also said no pets are allowed but pets have been in that house. My wife's allergies can verify that. There were dog hairs all over the couch in the living room. Your cleaning crew may need to step up with a more thorough cleaning. Again- we did enjoy out time overall. I think this is a great location it just needs a little updated TLC. I just feel that folks need to know exactly what to expect before they get there. I will not be coming back but it could be enjoyable for other VRBO users with improvements.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. I am glad you enjoyed your time overall! I have had requests to bring pets but I have not made any exceptions for guests to bring pets for the very reason you state, some people have pet allergies. If there was dog hair on the sofa, then someone must have violated the rules without my knowledge. I did bring your comment to the attention of my housekeeper and asked her to spend extra time to vacuum and remove fur from any upholstery. The baseboards are a secondary source of heat. As mentioned in the description, the cabin has 3 sources of heat. The primary heat comes from 2 ceramic wall heaters, one in the family room and one in the master bedroom. There is a setting on each heater to regulate how much heat it generates and a thermostat on the wall to cause the fans to distribute the heat based on the temperature of the cabin. They can keep the cabin cozy and warm. In very cold weather, the baseboard heaters provide supplemental heat. Then, there is a woodstove which creates its own ambiance, but also produces a lot of heat as well. I am sorry you were apparently unfamiliar with the ceramic heaters and the cabin was too chilly. I will think about how to highlight them better in my listing and I am available by phone if my guests experience an issue. I prioritize function and safety when looking at cabin expenditures. The hot tub does have leaks at high water levels and the outside has deteriorated over time. I had a new enclosure built but was not happy with the quality of the work. My hot tub repair man is helping me to evaluate my replacement options. I have added ceiling fans to help air circulation and replaced the stove, refrigerator and dryer as well as adding a drawer dishwasher. The TV is old, but functional. I do agree that a flat screen smart TV would be a nice update, but it probably won't happen until the hot tub is replaced. I appreciate your choice of Fern Hill Overlook and your comments on your stay.

Amazing view, away from the world

This spot was definitely secluded. Away from the hustle and bustle, yet close enough to explore nearby towns. We spent time in Boone and Blowing Rock. The cabin is up a VERY steep private drive( recommend bringing a vehicle to handle that). It's very private but the view of the mountains is absolutely perfect. Interior is alright. Looks just like the pictures. The kitchen has all the cookware and utensils you need. I'd recommend this stay for couples.

Om værten

Vært: Sandra

Værtens profilbillede
A native Floridian, I grew up in a beautiful, almost tropical, but very flat landscape. By contrast, the mountain scenery is magnificent in a very different and dramatic way. I love each season and the change of scenery it brings at the cabin. The natural setting and majestic peaks seen from the front porch make Fern Hill Overlook a great personal retreat. (I live in NC now about 4 hours away from my cabin.) If you are looking to experience the mountains in a private wooded setting, I invite you to consider Fern Hill Overlook.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

In May 2006 we found this permanent private rustic vacation cabin which is perfect for us. It is a truly special spot that has a feeling of seclusion on 2 acres, an awesome view of the mountains and seasonal views of the Watauga River.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

Rocking chair front porch. Close to the river. Wooded. For necessities, there is a nearby grocery, deli and gas station. We consider this property a refuge for the wildlife and the people who visit. Please respect our desire to maintain this property as a sanctuary for everything within its boundaries. We hope that your stay here will be an experience to store in your chest of treasured memories.
