Collettsville, North Carolina
Located in the beautiful John River Gorge, between Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain, GLOBE VALLEY RANCH is 'where the pavement ends' and your dream vacation begins. Our family began our dream of building quaint mountain cabins with the purchase of 117 acres on the Johns River in 2005. The Johns River and the Pisgah National Forest border our property and offer a beautiful, tranquil setting to be enjoyed in all seasons!
We proudly offer our brand new hand hewed log cabin with 2 bedrooms and a loft with 2 single beds. A wonderful six seater hot tub sits on the back deck of the cabin. We rent on a daily or weekly basis. In addition, we have built a 36x36 timber frame barn with a BBQ area and play area. We invite you to listen and observe the abundant wildlife on our pristine acreage and enjoy total relaxation on the covered front porch that overlooks 'Bear Hollow Creek'. You may also enjoy a hike down by the Johns River to 'wet a hook'. Our vacation destination offers a wide range of outdoor activities for the adventure enthusiasts during spring, summer, fall or winter.
There are other rental units on the property, VRBO # 640172 .

Such a wonderful property and many trails on the property to explore! I am very grateful we had the opportunity to stay here. We stayed during Thanksgiving and it was just amazing. The host was very communicative. I 100% recommend.
Quiet and peaceful cabin on a beautiful Ranch. My children enjoyed the hot tub!
The cabin is wonderful and beautifully furnished. The property is so peaceful with the creek in front of the porch. Enjoyed the trails and the river on the property and the dogs loved exploring. We will definitely visit again.
Must stay! Pictures do not do it justice.
Perfect for outdoors and true nature. We had a Wood Fairy to visit us and the kids didn't have any screens on until movie time before bed.
Great cabin 15 mikes from civilization. Loved heading down the mountain to Blowing Rock & Boone for dining, shopping and local flavor. Very comfy!
We LOVE this cabin! It’s our second stay there and we’ll probably go back again. Very peaceful with a stream out front. The hot tub is great for sore muscles after hiking. No cars, people, etc. to be heard. Ms. Corrine is so sweet and helpful. Highly recommend!
Beautiful place, so quite and peaceful. My grandbabies loved playing in the creek in front of house and the hot tub. There were lots of toys to keep them entertained too. We had fun at the River also. We will definitely go back again. Connie was easy to contact. Waterfalls close by this place is a small piece of Heaven on earth. Thank you for sharing it.
Our second stay at Bear Creek Inn. Just lovely
It rained the entire time we were there, so we didn’t get to explore the woods area like we wanted to, but the house had everything you could need. It was clean, good layout, plenty of games etc to entertain the children, and the woods around the home are just beautiful. The creek out front was so relaxing and my kids loved it. Fair warning - the internet was super slow while we were there (prob due to the rain), but I wanted my kids off their iPads anyway so it was no big deal. We left feeling very relaxed and chill. Would love to stay again! One request - a wheel on the gate would make opening/closing it sooo much easier ? Excellent property!
So, you're reading reviews of properties you are considering. A particular property stands out to you and the reviews are good. Really good. And they've been consistently good for years... Can it possibly still be that good? In this case the answer is YES! What a stellar property. Exactly as described, the cabin is gorgeous, immaculately clean, classy yet rustic, well stocked, very comfortable and sits on a prime piece of land that we've barely scratched the surface in exploring. (We'll continue that on a future trip.) While the cabin was our primary destination, we did take a day trip into Blowing Rock (25 minutes up the mountain on a scenic lane) and another day we travelled over to Jonas Ridge for some tubing. (Excellent half day of snowy fun). The rest of the time we enjoyed the fireplace, hot tub, front porch and grounds. We ate lots of meals in and had no problem preparing everything we planned in the well equipped kitchen. The many reviews stating the comfort of the beds and furniture were not exaggerating and the showers and water were great. (I have to believe that the entire cabin is on an R.O. system - the water was excellent). The only time we contacted the owner was a quick hello on arrival and a goodbye on departure. She responded kindly and quickly each time. Otherwise, everything was just as promised and we experienced no issues whatsoever. Our crew included two 40-something adults, an 18yr old and a 6yr old - and to a person, it was decided we HAVE to return!
This year we wanted to spend Christmas away, get away from all the hustle and bustle and just spend time as a family… Globe Valley Ranch was Christmas! I honestly could not have asked for more. The cabin is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and clean. We spent time playing games, baking cookies and watching movies. The property is gorgeous, sitting on the front deck over looking the river, I never wanted to leave. The quietness was so welcoming. We didn’t get to explore much outside because of the windchill reaching records of minus 10. During that time Corrine checked on us to make sure we still had power and if we needed anything. Corrine was so responsive and amazing to work with. This cabin is honestly a hidden gem. Already looking at the dates we can book again when it’s warmer to explore Globe Valley Ranch. It’s a MUST
We go to pick out a Christmas tree every year and we loved staying at this cabin didn’t have to worry about other people staying on top of you
Everything was perfect from the cabin to the property. Definitely no cell service but I count that as a plus! We spent the days out on the river on the property and evenings in the hot tub. The river is located at the front entrance to the property and down the path. We just packed the car up with floats, drinks, and snacks and drove there. All in all….I would definitely recommend this property to anyone and hope to come back again soon.
We could have easily stayed a month. Very private, quiet, fully equipped, nothing anyone could want for. Sitting on the porch watching the wildlife, fireflies and chilling. The beds and furniture so comfortable and Showers are great Never turned on a TV ! Corrine was awesome and extremely helpful answering our many questions. We already want to plan another trip to NC just to stay here.
Beautiful peaceful place. We loved the river and the creek in front of house. Hiking on the property was so nice. Definitely going back.
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We found everything we needed to cook and grill, play games, watch movies, hike, and soak in the hot tub. It was perfect for us. The cabin is lovely, clean, and well stocked for just about any need. We enjoyed driving into Blowing Rock one day. But most of our time was spent relaxing and enjoying the beauty of Staircase Mountain. We did not communicate with the owners at all but, luckily, there was no need since everything was just as described in the check-in information provided to us in advance.
