New 2/2 Log Cabin, Rushing Trout Stream, Hot Tub, Fireplace, 8 Acres, WiFi

Just had a wonderful time with my wife, 2 girls and dog. The place is amazing and is better than the photos.The host was very accommodating by letting us add on an extra day. Communication was good.We went fishing in the creek and caught two trout. Released them since they were to small.Everyday you could sit on the porch and watch a deer and her baby. The fireflies were something to see. Sitting in hot tub and listening to the creek is perfect. I did not listen to other guests. There is absolutely no cell service there, so print your info. Fortunately I remembered the wifi password and didnt have to drive back. Wifi was great.The road is paved until you get close to the place then it becomes a gravel road. Our suv had no trouble.You will have to take trash to a community collection center which is about 15 mins away and are closed on Tuesday and Thursday. Hope info helps.Again this place is so beautiful. We will definitely be coming again.

The only thing that could have made this any better is if I owned it!

The cabin was beautiful and well maintained. Enjoyed the view of Elk Creek and the sound of the running water. Made use of the hot tub while enjoying the view. I had no luck trout fishing, but wading the stream was fun.

The creek riught outside the back deck was the highlight of the trip. Loved the cabin!

Cabin was immaculate and cozy. The creek was amazing! We found lots of salamanders and frogs out on the rocks, so if that's your thing, this is the place for you! The hot tub was a great feature after long hikes around the area. Check in/out was super easy. No reception but there's a phone line and wifi should you need it. We had a blast!

Private, Clean, and Quiet. The beds were amazing, the kitchen has everything you need to eat in, excellent gas grill, the deck over looks the stream and we especially loved the picnic table and hot tub on the deck. Everything you need for a quiet get away to also unplug. Pet friendly and we loved the large deck for our fur babies to hang out. The owner was super. Thanks Bill for making our trip amazing. Definitely will return!!!Stephanie and Don Speer

Great host, they always responded back in less than a minute. Absolutely beautiful property, one of the most beautiful views we've ever seen. We're already planning on our next trip back!!

We really enjoyed it and it is a very nice place to stay. The only issues we had was not being able to get the fire logs to work, but it was ok. It also took a day for the hot tub to warm up; again, no problem. We did have poor cell service, but got by.

We really enjoyed the cabin and the location. The only issues were the host was not quickly responsive (the day of, someone should be available to answer within an hour or so for incoming guests); we messaged early on asking about the indoor/outdoor fireplaces (whether they were gas or firewood), we received a message that indoor was gas and outdoor was wood, when we arrived there was a note that you could pay for firewood for the outdoor fireplace (and it was not available on the property, you had to message someone to deliver it). I feel this should have been addressed when I asked about the fireplaces, so we could bring our own wood with us. Also, there was an error code on the hot tub, but there were no instructions in the house on how to fix it. We had to google it and eventually got it figured out. Other than that, no issues. We had a great time. We did fish the stream but did not catch anything - we walked several 100 yards in each direction.

Well bill nice gal but need new housekeeper for sure floors sandy and hot tub was trashed by previous renters we love it there we go only for the sound of the creek coffee and the peaceful Serenity!!! Would definitely comeback!! Again this was our second time not impressed this go!!

Great cabin on a awesome creek.. Plenty of room to walk dogs also.whick was great

Absolutely beautiful place! Would definitely stay here again if the opportunity came.

This was an absolutely a gorgeous place to stay. All facilities are new and in great condition. Secluded and restful. We found it to be just right from activities and shopping. We would really like to consider for a summer stay. The creek and outdoors would be would be great for a family. Pet friendly was a plus for us too. I highly recommend this house!!!!! We had no issues.

We did not skiBut we went on plenty adventures from the house. My friends and I had a great time. Love the river love the fire pit. Thank you for letting us stay.

This cabin was our best by far. The comforts, cleanliness and stream were amazing. We enjoyed playing in the front yard. Quiet and peaceful retreat!

The cabin was very clean and everything was so wonderful. We enjoyed our stay and would rent it again.

The property was beautiful everything you could need would definitely stay there again .

Cabin was private. Located on a beautiful lot. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. My biggest concern was the sharp curves on the winding road getting to and from the the cabin to and from 421. I was not accustomed to driving on this type of mountain roads. As a result, I learned how to use manual drive and paddles on my Subaru Outback.

Beautiful setting and cute and clean house.

Beautiful, quiet location. Would definitely stay there again!

It was very quiet and peaceful. Everything was clean and working. Home is well appointed with nice furnishings. The stream is easy to access and gorgeous. Our dog also loved the property which had lots of space for chasing a ball. It was perfect for a weekend getaway!

This is our favorite place to stay when we go to the mountains near Boone, NC. Even after the storms from last year, the property looks good.

So relaxing! We loved this cabin. It was clean and comfortable and perfect for a long weekend. My husband and I and our two dogs had a fabulous time. We roamed the vast yard and played in the creek. The road to get there is a bit twisty but was still close for us to visit our son at App State. The bed was comfy and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. This would be a great place for adults to relax or families with kids to play. It was perfect for our dogs. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

We had a great stay. Creek was wonderful and peaceful sounding. Our kids had fun with the hot tub. Would love to come again!! Plenty of parking and a lot of place around the house. Everything was great! We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you soooo much!

Nice cabin with comfortable beds and well appointed kitchen. My lab loved the stream behind the house. The fireplace went on the first time but not on my next tries. This location is very remote and even though the mileage to Boone is minimal it is a very slow and twisty road. It took about 20 minutes to get to the main road. We did not use the hot tub.

5 star all the way!! Kids relaxed in stream and adults on back deck.

The cabin had everything we needed to cook meals and relax by the creek for the long holiday weekend. Very clean and kitchen well equipped. We didn’t leave the property except for long walk and our dog loved floating with us in the river followed by hot tub soaks for the humans. Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece of property with us.

Very clean, very comfortable, and beautiful views.

The host and the property completely exceeded all expectations. This property is absolutely amazing. It is secluded enough to enjoy privacy by the creek and just a short drive to the attractions in the area if you would like to see the sights. A perfect location. I highly recommend staying on this property. The host will make sure you go home with nothing but pleasant memories. He was awesome! We will definitely be coming back.

Love staying at this cabin. This makes our 3rd yr staying here. Perfect size and level of privacy. Glad to see it survived the flood. Not as much fish as usual post flooding. Hoping the hatcheries will get the trout population back up next year. Still a great stay. Plenty of supplies in kitchen and bath. Lovely view from from front and back deck. First time seeing a bear here. So that was an extra special treat.

We stayed in this cabin for a week and two other families we know stayed in the other two which worked out very nicely. The cabin was very nicely decorated in a cabin theme and very clean. The bed was comfy, the kitchen well stocked. It was dog friendly with pet bowls on hand. We enjoyed the large hot tub every night. There was a note when we arrived that the dishwasher was broken and that a repair request was put in but no one ever came which was inconvenient. The wifi is weak - don't plan on doing work or streaming here. This is a great place to get away from it all as it is in the middle of nowhere. Stock up on groceries before you come because it takes a good 30-40 minutes on curvy, narrow roads to get to a grocery store or restaurant. I wouldn't drive those roads after dark, that's for sure. Overall we really enjoyed staying here and would do it again.

We had a great visit. The cabin was exactly how it was described. The cabin was very clean. The dishwasher was broke when we went but we were told it was on order. This did not affect our stay or bother us to wash the little dishes we have.

This was a beautiful and peaceful cabin! I’ve recommended it to several people already!

After a few VRBO hiccups, check in was easy. The cabin is nice, clean, and comfortable. Lots of towels and extra sheets. The dishwasher did not work. We were unable to use the TV. The wifi is OK. The door to the storage space would not lock and banged in the wind, requiring a rock to prop it closed. There is no cell service but there is a landline.Information on how to get there should have been in the listing. Recommend asking owner to provide detailed directions both to the cabin and to Boone if he does not post them after our recommendation. The VRBO estimates on how long it takes to drive to places are inaccurate. There are no restaurants within a walking distance. Boone is about 25/30 /- 5 minutes away. Blowing Rock an additional 25 minutes. The first mile as you leave is a heavily rutted gravel road. The paved is narrow, with hilly and hair-raising sharp switchbacks and no shoulders.There was not much to do here. Contractors were loudly dredging the stream with heavy equipment for the first few days, so fishing and tubing were out of the question. Owner said they did not tell him when they were arriving. Since he knew that they would be coming at some point, it would have been nice to forewarn us, give us the option of whether to come and even offer some compensation for the noise.We enjoyed the stream after workers left for the day. If you plan to “stay put” for the most part you will be fine. But if you want more, it will require some driving. Hope this helps.

The cabin was very beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. Hot tub was great, back porch was my favorite place to be with the sound of the water flowing. Very relaxing weekend.

Great cabin tucked back into the woods beside a beautiful stream download your GPS map because cell service is 0!

Very nice peaceful fishing wasn’t that good but it’s usually a crap shoot I went to the bridges and caught trout. These waters get fished out quick timing is everything.

We loved staying here. If you are looking for somewhere to unwind in a remote peaceful location this is it. The floor plan is great because each bedroom has its own bathroom. This is a very nice house that is spotless. We loved being outside with the beautiful creek. We will happily go back.

The property is even better than described. Gorgeous views, very relaxing. Owner was very quick to help with anything we needed. Would definitely love to stay again.

Nice place. However, my husband and kids were absolutely disappointed bc there were no fish to be caught as listed on the listing. My husband actually left deflatef.sad

We loved the location it’s a beautiful home. Lots of space. We will definitely be booking again. Only thing I will say is if you’re coming in at night. It’s ever easy to miss could use a some lights. We are already planning our next stay

We are planning on going back and taking our grandchildren.

Great place to stay especially if you have dogs !! We thoroughly enjoyed it and it's a beautiful atea.

Good location. Nice and quiet.

Thanks for a great stay!

Very clean and comfortable cabin

We stayed over a long weekend at the cabin and had a great time. Plenty of area to explore and the creek behind the house was gorgeous. The hot tub was awesome. Inside the cabin was great, beautifully decorated, nice appliances and cabinets etc. The gas fireplace along with the AC unit kept the whole house warm when it was 14 degrees outside. Only downside was the couch, definitely worn out and needs replacing. Also if traveling from Boone to the cabin and there is heavy snow, 4WD or AWD is recommended to make it up a slope along the way. Overall I would definitely recommend this cabin and look forward to staying here in the future.

Perfectly equipped and lots of amenities like hot tub, fireplace, firepit, riverfront, etc. will defintly return. Our dog loved it too!

Beautiful property and area! Very quiet and peaceful. Lots of land for the dogs to run. Kids enjoyed the creek and exploring around the property. They have a tankless water heater, which means never running out of hot water from showers. Satellite TV is nice, and the internet works good. Gas fireplace is a push button and is probably the easiest fireplace I’ve ever used. Cabin has just about everything you need. Our ONLY negative is that the couch is a couch bed and not very comfortable, but the rocker was nice.

Nice/ clean and peaceful place

Great experience and will be returning

This place is a real retreat. Nestled in a deep valley near Boone, it is a peaceful place. The cabin looks brand new and everything worked well. Love the gas fireplace! Beds were comfortable and furniture comfortable. I will return!

This is a beautiful and well appointed cabin with everything you need for a great stay. Dog friendly and there is a lot of space for them to roam. Will look to come back in the future, hopefully for longer than a weekend next time!

We loved everything about this cabin! The property was gorgeous and the cabin was fully stocked with everything you could ever need. Can’t wait to go back!

Honestly I don’t even want the word to get out about this place, it’s perfectly remote so you can really unplug. It was just great.

Great 👍

This was our second time staying here and it did not disappoint. Beautiful, quiet property. The cabin offers everything you need and more. We will be back next Fall!

Beautiful location in the mountains with the creek feet away from the house. The house was very well equipped and the host had great communication. Perfect weekend.

This cabin and owner are amazing! We were staying here when Hurricane Helene hit. Bill drove from FL to make sure we were ok. Honest we will definitely rent here again. Thank you for all you did to ensure we were safe and sound! Your property is beautiful and Elk Creek will have a lasting memory on us.

Wonderful cabin along a stream. Living room furniture was worn and uncomfortable however with the hurricane damage it may not be an issue. It breaks our heart to think that this beautiful area sustained so much trauma and damage.
