Absolutely loved this place. Visuals are important to me and the cute little red kitchen I just adored. We wished we had grandchildren with us to stay in the little storybook bedroom alcoves. Lots of tasteful furniture and antiques. Great soft bedding. It was dark but enchanting. We loved every minute. It was very clean . We will come back for sure.

It was lovely and well appointed. Smaller than it looks on the pics but we were fine. Note: upstairs guests have to come downstairs to the bathroom. Right off the road. Not hard to get to. The bubbling stream was the best. 20 min to Sugar

My husband and I needed to get away from reality for a few days, and this property was perfect. We watched gently falling leaves from the porch, and I fell in love with the rockers. The property was very spacious for the two of us, and we had a lovely 3-night-stay. We highly recommend this property!

The property was delightful and as described on VRBO. Would have been helpful to know both bathrooms were on the lower floor. 12 yr old would have liked to have had one TV upstairs. Owner was terrified and soo easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy, peaceful cabin

The cabin was a perfect base while we moved our daughter into her dorm. Quiet, peaceful setting and only 10-15 minutes to campus. Plenty of beds. It was perfect for the 3 of us. Family spaces would have been a little tight if we had had all 5 of us.

Rustic cabin by a babbling brook, what can be nicer in the quiet mountains!All good, but my only beef is that the upstairs is not height suitable for a 6’5” guy.Oh, and yes, a bear attacked the outside garbage can the last night we were there, fortunately we had kept all the garbage inside as per instructions.

It was a cute little cabin. Very small not made for a lot of people. We had 4 adults and not a lot of room to sit while relaxing to watch the tv. The downstairs bedroom was nice and very comfortable bed. No bathroom upstairs and I think just way too many beds upstairs. It felt very cramped. It did smell of old wood when you first came in but that’s just an old cabin for you. It worked for the weekend but not sure I would stay here again.

Great Mountain Cabin

Stayed here again for a family weekend. The location is great. The kids really enjoyed playing in the backyard creek, and the yard was great for games. The back porch is perfect for relaxing at all times of the day. We've visited this cabin several times and would highly recommend!

Our family loved staying here!

We loved this cabin. Everything was just as pictured. Beautiful, peaceful piece of property that was tucked away yet close to Boone. We were visiting or son at App State and found it to be a very convenient location. We loved the outdoor seating and the gas fireplace. Would highly recommend and are already planning to stay here again!

Great Little Cabin

Enjoyed our stay! Agree with previous reviews that it would be nice to have fewer items on the kitchen counters so you have room for your items you bring and for prepping food. But overall a very cute cabin and in a great location!
