Cozy 1BR Cabin: Hot Tub, Wood Stove & Pet-Friendly; Near Sugar Mtn Ski
Wolf River Retreat is a charming mountain cottage perfectly situated between Boone and Banner Elk, offering guests quick and easy access to everything the High Country has to offer. Tucked just off the main highway, this inviting retreat provides a convenient location without sacrificing the peaceful feel of a mountain escape.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love being only 5 miles from Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, where winter brings skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, and snow tubing. In warmer months, Sugar Mountain transforms into a hub for mountain biking, scenic chairlift rides, festivals, concerts, and more. Additional nearby attractions within 20 minutes include Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster, Sugar Creek Gem Mining, Banner Elk Winery, Sugar Mountain Public Golf Course, and the charming shops and restaurants of downtown Banner Elk, just 15 minutes away. Downtown Boone is an easy 25-minute drive, and Grandfather Mountain State Park is less than 17 minutes away—making this an ideal home base for hiking adventures and the famous Highland Games.
Inside, the cottage is thoughtfully designed for couples seeking comfort and style. The one-bedroom layout features a king bed and a private ensuite bathroom with a large custom tiled shower. The single-level living space includes a cozy leather sofa, a wood-burning stove, and beautifully curated décor that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. Large picture-perfect windows fill the space with natural light and offer seasonal mountain views.
The spacious kitchen is both functional and charming, featuring a gas stove, vintage-style refrigerator, and basin sink—perfect for preparing meals after a day of exploring. Unwind in the outdoor hot tub, fire up the gas grill, or relax indoors with the TV offering YouTube TV service.
Wolf River Retreat comfortably accommodates two guests and welcomes one dog with an additional fee, making it a wonderful option for a romantic getaway with your furry companion. AWD or 4WD is recommended during winter months due to mountain road conditions.
Whether you're here for adventure, festivals, or a peaceful mountain escape, Wolf River Retreat offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and unbeatable location.
