About this property

Pet friendly secluded home with creek near Blowing Rock/Boone Wifi

Located in the Grandfather mountain wild and scenic gorge of Wilson's Creek. The BML is very secluded by Pisgah National forests yet only 13-18 miles from either Blowing Rock, Linville Falls or Grandfather Mountain. We are WiFi equipped. The
Wilson creek gorge is 1/2 mi from the house and is stocked with trout. We have trails behind the house with views of GFM and waterfalls and are close to the Harper creek falls trail head. We are pet friendly, and we have a 4 horse barn for guest that want to bring their horses. The Brown Mountain All Terrain vehicle park is only 9 miles from the house if you want to bring your ATV. Kids can rent tubes to float the gorge or fish in the trout pond down at Betsy's country store. Great excursions to Linville Falls, Linn Cove viaduct, Grandfather Mountain, Table Rock park, and Blowing Rock for shopping and fine restaurants. Links on our website for near by golf, fishing, dining, shopping, sight seeing and all of the fun stuff to do in the mountains.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Beautiful property and access to water. Very suitable for someone in a wheelchair to enjoy views and listening to the creek. It was so peaceful and private. We all absolutely loved the place. There was a hiking trailhead right by the driveway. I will def be staying here again! I'm wanting to return when it snows!

Jeff was super nice and accommodating. While the cabin was a little older it was still very nice and well appointed. The nature in the area was absolutely stunning despite some areas being closed due to last years storm damage. I enjoyed the short stories authored by the host. They had a very personal and authentic feeling with a pleasant descriptive presentation and just the right level of nostalgia. Brown Mountain Lodge is to be highly recommended as a special place with a special location.

2nd stay up at the cabin. My kids absolutely love the river in the front of the house. Very tucked away and secluded. Great deck with dart board and string lights.

This a beautiful property, but would really shine with a little TLC. I understand that Helene was devastating but unfortunately previous reviews were not reflective of our stay.

We came from Florida looking for a secluded mountain experience. We were NOT disappointed. The property alone was worth the trip. Massive property. With hiking trails to waterfalls right behind the house. The oroperty itself... is def a more rustic cabin. With all yhr amenities you need. We brought 2 smaller dogs and the property was perfect for them and my 2 kids as well. Plenty to explore. We loved the stream running thru the property and an actual waterfall right down a few stairs. A great place to swim and have late night bon fires at. We will def. Be back! The little general store was a life saver for a quick snack and fire wood. It wasnt an issue or anything but it is some serious mountain driving if you want to go to sugar mountain or blowing rock. We did the drive twice to see snow and snow tube. Was def worth it. Was about an hour... to get there. Just some curvy roads. Ha

Thank you Nathan C - its a 4 season experience - The River, the trails, the leaves and foliage and Winter time its a whole other experience, it is an adventure to the slopes the first couple times but once you've done it a time or two its feels a lot more familiar. You pop out onto the parkway or Blowing Rock and its like wow. Come back soon.

Great cabin for a weekend

We really enjoyed our stay at this place. everything was ready for our stay. Kitchen, bathrooms are fully equipped. It was loaded with all the conveniences and we were away from the hustle and bustle of being in town. Also, if you have any questions, just call Jeff directly. Very attractive and comfortable. Beautiful setting on a farm.

The property is in a great location, with a small river right outside your front door

While the property location was nice, we lost hot water for a day and a half when it seems like the pipes froze during this crazy winter storm that came through. There are plenty of space heaters in the house so it was easy to stay warm. It has a great porch with a nice outside fire place.

Hi Sebastian: Thanks for review, sorry for the challenges on plumbing. Today at my home the power knocked off and with the sustained cold the hot water line froze and we lost hot water for a few hours ourselves. Hopefully that idea I had remedied the situation. Coming from Fla ya'll probably enjoyed the cold but were glad to get back to normal temps......this cold spell was a big one. thanks again for staying with us!

No distractions except the sound of the creek and falls below the deck.

Good trip to decompress from COVID stress and not have cell service. It was great not being able to look at your phone.

Wonderful spot for relaxing family vacation

Plenty to do on the property, including a creek with waterfall, trails, a large grassy field with huge bonfire pit, and an awesome covered porch with hammock, outdoor fire pit, grills, tikis, and a great view. And if you want to venture off the property, you are close to lots of points of interest; on our trip, we went to Linville Falls and Linville Caverns, Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock, Mt. Mitchell, Little Switzerland, and cruising the Blue Ridge Parkway. All along the creek are swimming holes, trout fishing, sliding rock, and sandy beach areas. The cabin is completely stocked with everything you could possibly need -- the kitchen was amazing. We will definitely visit this place again next year!
