The house was just as described except that the views were even more spectacular in person. The bed was comfy, the showers had great water pressure, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The hot tub was icing on the cake. We loved it and will likely stay again sometime. Can’t recommend highly enough! Also, Lansing is adorable.

Awesome stay

We found the cabin clean and tastefully decorated. It is surrounded by trees so if you are looking for a secluded spot this is the place. We loved the privacy. The view is amazing and we could hear the river below running. We highly recommend this cabin and look forward to our next stay.

Beautiful views and nice amenities. We enjoyed a hot tub sunset looking at the beautiful mountains! It was within 15 minutes of the state park for nice hiking and downtown West Jefferson, which is a very viable small town.

Cabin on the Mountain

What a terrific mountain getaway! Our cabin was so warm and inviting and we were thrilled to find it decorated for Xmas! We felt right at home and except for food and personal items we found everything we needed for our stay. The views of the mountains and the river from the porch were fantastic! Would definitely love to stay here again!

The wrap around porch had a fantastic view. It was very safe for 5 little children to play on. The children enjoyed the available toys inside. Living space was very comfortable and we enjoyed the bear decor. The fire pit worked well for roasting marshmallows. Everyone loved the hot tub.

Annual retreat

Brian was the best host I've ever had as far as communicating. The hot tub was crucial as we were hiking hard every day, but the views were stunning. We rented this property for both and were not disappointed. We hope to make it back next year!

Relaxation with a spectacular view!

We had such a great stay at this cabin. The views from the porch are gorgeous and we spent lots of time out there enjoying the hot tub and patio. The cabin is cozy and compact but well laid out and comfortable. We cooked several meals in the well equipped kitchen (heads up, no dishwasher). The location is great - feels so quiet and private, but only about 15 minutes to West Jefferson. Lots of nearby hikes and we loved exploring the river which was easy to access from the property. We would love to return!!

Wonderful cottage. Perfect for me and my wife for a long, relaxing weekend getaway in the mountains. Very clean and well maintained.I can’t stress this enough: The view is jaw droppingly stunning. Just gorgeous. Mountain views galore and a river below to boot. Just outstanding! A feast for the eyes!While there are a few homes in the distant view they are so far away you still feel completely secluded.Great communication with the owner on a few insignificant questions, e.g. is the grill charcoal or propane (it’s propane, thank goodness). The cottage is very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, Keurig, etc. I brought some extra things and never needed to use them. It’s obviously been updated in some critical areas like the bathrooms.Plenty of sitting room inside and out (very impressed with the set-up. I really can’t say enough about this place. Absolutely no complaints. Well done owners!

Nice Spot, hot tub disappointing

Overall, I would stay again. Everything was an easy process, and the place was as expected. The ONLY complaint we had was the hot tub. It was not really that clean, it felt slimy and smelled like mildew. We usually seek out cabins with a nice view and hot tub but this was disappointing as far as hot tub. Views great, house cozy, layout worked well, deck was great, the pics of the house don't give it as much justice in my opinion. The driveway is gravel and steep which wasn't in the description but we had an SUV. We also asked host for an hour later checkout which he allowed and we really appreciated that.

The pros and cons

We would never go there again. Pros ..The host was great communicating , easy checking in. Enjoyed the hot tub. Nice view.WiFi worked. They allow dogs. Bathrooms obviously undated nicely. Beds comfortable enough. CONS …short white dog hair on couch, stain on sheet , 7 ft ceilings, felt small and claustrophobic ,seems very old , hood above stove filthy, had very pungent deodorizes plugged in several rooms which knocked us over when we walked in, very dark, one burner would not work consistently on stove, and fire pit pic on website looks close , but you actually have to hike up steeply through the woods in the dark , abandoned shack and trailer next door, old mismatched furniture, not full set of spoons, 2 plastic wine glasses, which maybe is for hot tub but no good stemware , not full set of teaspoons.

NC Mountains

Beautiful cabin. Hiked some nearby trails, went tubing down the river, and explored West Jefferson. The owner has a guest book in the cabin for all guests to sign and write about their trip. Our trip was based largely on what other guests wrote in the book! Awesome idea. I wish more places did this! Lots of fun and you’ll be surrounded by beautiful mountains. The driveway is a bit steep, but my 2 wheel drive, 4cyl Tacoma pulled it off. We drove past the cabin on arrival. The GPS will bring you to the general area, but once you get to the GPS location, it’s on the left hand side down the slope. You’ll see a red reflector in the ground to the right. You definitely feel like you have your own private oasis in the mountains at this cabin. You can’t see any neighbors. We took a walk to the river to scope it out; you’re better off driving down to the river if you’re going to swim or fish. It’s quite the hike back up to the cabin. Loved our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Brian Carey

Host profile image
Four close friends came together to purchase this dream cabin to enjoy and share with others who appreciate all that the cabin and the mountains have to offer.

Why they chose this property

We chose this specific cabin out of all others because of the beautiful view where most other properties don't even compare. The seclusion and the close proximity to bars, restaurants and shopping makes it perfectly convenient.

What makes this property unique

Long range mountain views overlooking the New River. All from the cabin's deck or while seated in the hot tub..
