    This home was perfection, beautiful, spacious, clean, and comfortable. We loved spending the weekend here for our ski trip. We were worried about it being too far of a drive from Boone Ski Resort but it was not bad at all. We would stay here again for our next trip! The hot tub was amazing and the host was very clear and kind in their communication. The beds were also very comfy!

    We had an excellent stay. The home was extremely clean (honestly one of the cleanest rentals we’ve ever booked) and the kitchen was unbelievably well stocked—every item we could possibly need was there, which made cooking and settling in so easy. The atmosphere of the place was amazing: comfortable, welcoming, and just a great space to relax. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and made everything smooth from start to finish. We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

    We stayed at Elk River Cabin the week of Christmas and loved it. The cabin was beautifully decorated for the holidays, complete with a stunning Christmas tree that made it feel extra special. The hot tub was amazing, especially with the peaceful sounds of the river nearby. We also really enjoyed the pool table—perfect for relaxing evenings. Cozy, clean, and a wonderful place for a Christmas getaway. Highly recommend!

    This cabin was lovely and had all the amenities needed for a nice, comfortable stay. Peaceful cabin with river access, comfortable beds, sufficient bedding and nice linens. This was the cleanest rental we’ve ever stayed in and had extras from the host such as donuts, bottled waters, coffee pods and wine.For future visitors: Be sure to screenshot your door code because you won’t have internet or phone signal to access online once you’re there before connecting to their WiFi.If you’re looking for a lovely place to peacefully disconnect or enjoy family time, this is a great place to stay.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Elk River Cabin! Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer. The cabin itself is stunning, and the views are simply breathtaking. Waking up to the sound of the river below and watching the sun rise and set over the mountains was unforgettable. Our host went above and beyond to make our visit special. Since we mentioned it was our mini honeymoon, we were touched to find a vase of gorgeous yellow roses, a handwritten congratulatory card, a chilled bottle of champagne, and fresh donuts waiting for us when we arrived. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made our stay even more memorable. We can’t wait to come back to this beautiful property!

    This was an absolutely beautiful property. It was exactly what we needed for our weekend. The kitchen was excellent, one of the best stocked I've ever seen. Our host was so kind and welcomed us with goodies. So kind! The beds were very comfortable. We took a day trip to Boone. Very easy drive and so much fun! We enjoyed playing a few of the games with our family. We will definately be back! Thank you Todd and Suzanne!

    I recently stayed the weekend with my husband and other family members to get together for our dad’s celebration of life. It was the perfect place to gather. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and we enjoyed the beautiful woodwork and decor of this cabin. Beds were comfy and the views on the deck were spectacular. I highly recommend this cabin!
