Before you book, know up front that you will need a 4WD and a sense of adventure to access this property in winter. The road is not publicly maintained and is literally a sheet of ice, unlike the public roads. We checked in on a Wednesday a good week after they’d had a snow storm and there evidently were no winter safety preparations for our arrival. The parking spot was ice and the rock walkway was also dangerous. For over a decade we’ve been going to the mountains for snow and have never had an experience like this. The property should have been salted for safety and the private road maintained. Pros: -Cute cabin with nice layout -Lovely creek -Rhododendrons will be beautiful in spring -Had an issue with entry code and they were prompt to send another Cons: -Dangerous in winter -50 degrees on check-in and took 24 hours to get warm -Dog excrement all over the yard needs to be cleared away -Stated initially that property was 3 miles from Appalachian Ski Mountain but once complained they changed website to 7 miles (attached screen shot shows they forgot to update in all locations) -Needs pizza pan, pizza cutter, and clean new cookware
Our experience at this home was absolutely amazing. The property was beautiful and we will be back! The house was so cute and had everything we needed.
Such a quaint and good cabin. It rained the entire time because of the hurricane, but we still made the best of it. The morning we went to leave, it snowed, so that was a beautiful goodbye. The small waterfall is a short walk on the property and such a pretty view. The ice maker and water filter in the fridge door do not work. The furniture is a little dated but I think it contributes to the charm of the cabin. The bed is not comfy but our cabin was not cold like others mentioned. We loved the gas fireplace and left the puzzle we completed at the cabin for the next family to enjoy. Wish it hadn’t rained the whole time but we still made the best of it.
We loved this cabin and location! Very clean. The creek and waterfall was an amazing surprise. Beautiful and the sound was very peaceful. The only slight hurdle was that I didn't see that there was no air conditioning inside the home via the listing...which was my fault. And, during the day, it got very hot inside. It took some time to cool down with windows open and door. The home is very shaded, so that helped a lot. There were ceiling fans that helped a bit too. However, considering how hot it got, we thought more box fans should have been available. There was only one small oscillator fan. Should have at least four available IMHO. But, with attention to that, this home could get an extra star from us. We loved it!
The listing states there are enough towels and wash cloths for the amount of places to sleep people. Which is listed as 6 on the info. There were only 4 towels and 4 wash cloths there. I sent 2 emails to the property manager and never heard back from them. They were every fast on getting back with me when I inquired about renting the cabin. There were 5 of us and had to wash before we could all take showers. The property is beautiful with a flowing stream behind the cabin. Great to go out on back deck to enjoy but the sliding glass doors take a very strong man to open. There seemed to be a lot of dust and spider webs inside so a deep cleaning should occur. Overall it was comfortable and had all the things you need with the exception of towels!
Great location close to all the main attractions including Grandfather Mountain. Beautiful cabin Pet friendly. The beds were comfortable except for the pillows would recommend bringing your own. Otherwise overall a very good experience with Rent again.
My in-laws arrived to the cabin with the outside temperature hovering around the 30-40s and it wasn’t much different inside. The cabin is heated through radiant heat, thus comes through the floors. It heats one degree per hour and heating instructions ask to turn heat to 52(!!) upon checking out - so do the math. The in-laws almost left to get a hotel due to the cold, Michiganders mind you, but layered up and used more blankets. Management needs to resolve this issue for the winter months, especially for those guests who are more intolerable of the cold.
Beautiful little secluded cabin that is close enough to Boone to still run into town whenever you want. Backyard is amazing with a stream and waterfall that our dogs loved. Would definitely stay here again for the relaxing atmosphere!
My husband and I had a relaxing time. The place was clean and true to the pictures. Fully stocked kitchen equipment which was refreshing for a change and having a place to bring our two small dogs was awesome. The sound of river was definitely wonderful to listen to at night for a peaceful sleep.
Wonderful cabin! However, the family room furniture slipcovers was not cleaned well. Food and crumbs all in the big chair in the family room, (dog?) slobber and stains all over the stool slipcover and chair reeked of dog, sliding glass doors had dog slobber all over the bottom half. We tried to wipe off the stains and brushed off the food, but finally we put a sheet we brought over the chair in order to sit on it. Otherwise, the cabin was wonderful and had so much personality. The beds and bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and inviting. Would have received 5 stars except for the family room furniture issue. We would love to return, but hope the cleaning situation improves.
We were lucky to arrive the day after a winter snow. Coming from Florida, this was a novelty for our kids. We had no problems finding the cabin, using google maps. The gravel street that takes to the cabin was covered in snow so having an AWD vehicle is almost the only way to go if there is ice on the ground. The town of Boone is 5 mins from the cabin if you want to get groceries or eat out. We cooked in all our meals, and the kitchen had all we needed for this. The cabin feels smaller than what the photos show but we had plenty of room for a family of four and a dog. We really enjoyed our time in the cottage.
