Arriving at our main street, enter the Gated Community of Silverleaf. Our neighborhood is all gravel. For those not use to mountain roads, note that our roads are wider than many other mountain getaways we looked at purchasing in. Road courtesy is to allow the cars coming UP the mountain to have the ability to keep moving forward for continued momentum, so if you are coming down you pull off to the side on the nearest wide spot used for this very thing.

The cabin will be the first driveway on the right once you reach our street. The covered front porch and wrap-around deck promise true relaxation surrounded by nature and the soothing sound of a neighboring rushing creek. Numerous windows allow natural light and views of wildlife and nature from every room.

Step inside to a spacious living room with stacked stone gas fireplace – and well equipped for electronic entertainment (HDTV, 53 cable channels, DVD, and new Sound Bar.) You will also find a collection of board and card games, DVDs, kids’ books and toys in the cabin available for your use and Free WIFI.

The Rustic table for 8 in the dining room and seats for 3 at kitchen bar. Nicely appointed kitchen with all of the necessities – as well as a few fun extras like a French press for the coffee connoisseurs, a blender (smoothie or Margarita anyone?) and flip Belgian waffle maker.

Enjoy the nicely furnished "BEAR" Bedroom featuring an outstanding view of the sunrise over Rich Mountain as well as the side deck and hot tub. Serta perfect Queen bed. Extra blankets and pillows in each closet for cuddling near the fireplace, on the deck or just for extra cozy on those cold winter nights. The "Moose" bedroom also boasts second new Serta Perfect. A linen closet with extra sheets and towels, a stacked washer and dryer to allow you to pack lighter so you have more time for fun.... Let the clothes wash and dry at our place while you are out hiking around the cabin!

During the warmer months we love to eat all meals on the deck. Patio umbrella under the bedroom on the left. Enjoy a sit in the rocking chairs on the front and others on the side at the table. During Winter, grab a hot chocolate or cider and cozy up to the gas fireplace – or step outside and luxuriate in the four-person HOT TUB! Featuring soothing jets, headrest and LED lights in multiple colors to suit your every mood. Wonderful private feel facing Rich Mountain at sunset. Especially invigorating in the cold night air, hot water bubbling and steam rising and snow falling all round....

Cabin sits on 1.24 acres, but the views stretch for miles. Hiking trails begin right at the front door to Rich Mountain and surrounding area.

Also available are: skiing, snow tubing, kayaking, river rafting, fishing, and restaurants. The smaller Valley Grocery is 5 minutes away – a larger Food Lion grocery store is 13 minutes away in Mountain city or Ingles Grocery is 15 minutes and Publix 23 minutes away. Visit Boone, Banner Elk, Vilas, and Todd for restaurants and shopping. Find our personal favorite local attractions in the Welcome Book.

*** FOR WINTER BOOKINGS *we are trying to really point out info that has been on our page for 11 seasons but gets overlooked or not taken seriously -

The rest of the year please note we are at 4100 feet as we mentioned before and thus there will be curvy roads and such to get to the cabin. **this is due to a recent reviewer that seemed surprised that there may be steep roads **

4 Wheel / All Wheel ** AND ** CHAINS are a must. Please inquire first before direct booking to approve and discuss vehicle.

**While we are Dog friendly, they have to be approved and paid before arrival. $75 for first dog and $15 for additional one. Dog fee goes towards the deeper cleans needed after their stays. **

Reasons people site in our guest book for coming, Out the door Hiking, Honeymoon, Birthday, Anniversary, quiet get-away after tragedy, down time, family time, Leaf chasers, etc. We have even had a proposal while on vacation at our place.

Amazing!!

We loved everything about this cabin. Theresa was so helpful and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The views were wonderful and the cabin was just what we needed. The cabin is secluded and quiet but a short drive to anything you need. We enjoyed the hot tub looking out to the mountain, using the grill, going up to the bald, and sitting on the porch taking in the nature. I would recommend this stay to anyone who wants a nice getaway away from the hustle and bustle. We will definitely plan to stay again!!

Amazing cabin!!!!

My husband , dogs, and I had such a great time at this cabin! It's private and secluded yet close enough to downtown Boone if you would like a night out on the town ! There are great trails you can walk to from the cabin ! Amazing views and great management with booking the cabin. We will be back soon!!

An absolute delight!

Stayed here with my two Doodles while working 12+ hour days post Helene. Being able to start and end the day in house vs a hotel room makes the long days much easier. It was an absolute luxury to have a full kitchen AND a washer and dryer. The property was as described. The host was wonderful! Exceeded all expectations. Would love to come back one day when I can enjoy my coffee on the expansive patio and take a dip in the hot tub. NOTE: the 4-wheel drive part of the listing is no joke. The roads are nice and well maintained but the last couple of turns are pretty steep. This is where 4WD comes in handy.

Great spot! Lovely deck for looking up at the next mountain over. Convenient to Boone and Banner Elk areas so lots of dining options as well as hiking, tubing etc. Drive up the mountain is a bit steep and long, would be pretty tricky in the winter without 4WD. We had a great time.

Great view and very relaxing

Our stay in your cabin was great. We enjoyed the amazing view especially at night from the Hot Tub. My fiance and brother in law both went to Appalachian State so we spent a good portion of Saturday of venturing around Boone and letting them talk about old times. That is a very nice campus that has a lot of neat places. I would definitely recommend Rich Summit View to other people looking for a relaxing stay and awesome view. I will definitely be coming back to visit.

Heaven on Earth

The cabin is delightful. It is located in a gated community perched high on top with beautiful views. It would be easy to just stay on the balcony all day & sip tea(or wine if you prefer). The VRBO representation is spot on. Yes, anyone who has never experienced mountain roads before is going to be surprised but, in actuality they are prevalent throughout the High Country. The owner is exceptionally helpful & communicative. The location makes so many opportunities accessible..hiking..fishing..day trips...shopping..even TN since you 10 miles from the state line between NC & TN. I would give this property more than excellent if I could!!!!

Perfect stay in the mountains!

We loved our stay at Rich Summit! The homeowner had provided everything we needed for a wonderful vacation in the mountains... Wifi, gas logs fireplace for perfect ambiance, hot tub overlooking the view of the mountains, gas grill - we cooked out one night, and comfortable beds. We rambled through downtown Boone, but mostly stayed in at the cabin. Everything was clean and we can't say enough good things. We'll definitely be back!

Super cute, very clean cabin hideaway

Lovely stay - didn't want to leave - cabin was the perfect size for our family of 3 and our dog. Deck and hot tub had a lovely view - well stocked - Trek up to the cabin was a little scary at first (glad i have an AWD sport utility) but we got used to it as time went on. Cabin is on a mountain/neighborhood with gate access only so that was a plus. While there we were blessed with lovely weather and took a trek up to the top of the mountain with our dog and went tubing on the New River (highly recommend) - Relaxing trip - would definitely recommend - Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Rich Summit View

Host profile image
Our family has been vacationing in Boone since 2003 and have been in love with the area ever since. We particularly love getting out on the Blue Ridge Parkway, Moses Cone Property and Grandfather Mountain for trail hikes. For the more manicured walks, consider Moses Cone trails around the property which includes two different bodies of water. Runners, joggers, walkers and those just out on a stroll can enjoy something there. The Plantation home is being remodeled to period charm and has the list of places to walk and enjoy.

Why they chose this property

After much searching, we chose this property for is proximity to nature, seclusion (non-winter months) , mountain views and the way the cabin sits on the land. Because of the southern exposure the morning sun lights up the house with natural light and keeps the deck and living room warmer in the winter. Where we are located we can head out in any direction and be in Virgina, or Tennessee in a very short time. Since we are close to the TN border and Watauga Lake we can head there for Rafting or kayaking. Being close to Todd means bicycling and running on Railroad Grade road as well as fishing, river rafting, and canoeing at RiverGirl. We are 5 miles away from Elk Knob State Park, a newly opened park that covers and protects 3,473 acres the second highest peak in Watauga County. This offers a spectacular view for miles in each direction. We are always open to being contacted directly about where to eat, play, hike etc. *please note that direct phone contact can only be made after the booking due to new rules. But we are very open to assisting our guest so they have the best time and great memories.

What makes this property unique

Our side deck, Master Bedroom and Living room all look out onto Rich Mountain. The sun rises over this mountain and shines into the house providing tons of natural light. In the evening sun sets over our front deck which gives you a different perspective of the surrounding trees, colors in the sky are different each day. Get out and take a walk through the neighboring apple orchard or trails.. just enjoy yourself.

One our favorite things about the cabin is the quiet and secluded feel that surrounds our home – you can curl up with a good book or play a board game, with only the birds, wind, and creek as your soundtrack. You'll also love relaxing in our hot tub, kicking back on our deck in the rocking chairs and watching the sunset, counting the constellations 🌟, or just enjoying a beverage. But if you're itching to get out and explore, we have quite a few recommendations.
