Yearling - Cozy Log Cabin with Hot Tub between Valle Crucis and Banner Elk

Amazing cabin right on a gorgeous stream. We greatly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend!

We loved the privacy of the cabin, the location, and the hot tub nestled among the trees! Very clean and comfortable. The lights were even on for us when we arrived early evening, which was a welcoming surprise!

Pros: The cabin was very clean. It is very private. The back of the cabin is a tranquil creek with plenty of rocks to climb and enjoy. There’s also rocking chairs on the porch to sit and enjoy the view. It is between Boone, Beech Mountain, and very close to Banner Elk. The property is remote but it is in close proximity to all areas worth visiting in the area. I would recommend this property for a long, private stay/getaway. Cons: We couldn’t add the DirecTV app to the TV without entering a pin to watch college football. We had to stream on our phones. This would not be a problem for anyone looking for a getaway without football. The jacuzzi tub in the bathroom wouldn’t work so this was a bummer. There is a jacuzzi hot tub on the lower deck by the creek though. All around great property.

My husband and I stayed 4 nights and it was a very relaxing trip. The cabin was just the right size and had a stocked kitchen, card games, smart tv for a movie night, and the hot tub was great. Our only snafu was with check in, the door code in my email didnt work. I had screenshotted it ahead of time since I knew I wouldnt have signal so it took some walking up the hill to get enough signal to call the assistance number. After that, smooth sailing though!

Great setting with a creek running along the back of the property. We spent lots of time sitting on the porch listening to the wonderful sounds furnished by the stream. Lots to do in the area from hiking to fishing. Visited Grandfather Mountain and was surprised to see the new exhibit hall and other attractions.

Very relaxing

My husband & I both loved staying at this very secluded cottage so much we actually kept extending our stay. The sound from the rush of the waterfalls as you sit the the outdoor hot tub was beyond relaxing.

Stay was near perfect. The house was comfortable, outside was beautiful and there are many resources- grill, jacuzzi, streaming on TV, and a nice fireplace. Great place if you’re looking for peace and quiet. The only problem we had was the check in process, the check in code we were given didn’t work, but was a minor problem and was easily fixed with a phone call.

Check-in process was a little off. We were locked out of the cabin in the freezing weather and snow while we called the office and waited for a new code. Other than that the trip was perfect. The cabin was clean and cozy. The view was gorgeous and not far from towns, restaurants, and things to do, but quiet enough and private. The mountain views were so nice everytime drove somewhere. Very nice, romantic cabin and would definitely like to come back next year!

It was fantastic

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Yearling; just the right size for my husband and I. We absolutely loved the creek behind our cabin. We received 2 hours before check-in that the hot tub was not working and would not be available during our stay. This was very frustrating because that was one of the key amenities for me choosing the Yearling. Following check-in, we found that the fireplace did not work nor could we get a picture on the TV. These two things were quickly repaired the next morning. All these things should have been assessed and in morning order well before our check-in date. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very quiet cabin located in the mountains of N.Carolina. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Roads to the cabin are narrow and curvy

Enjoyed our time

As expected!

We had a short stay at Yearling to celebrate our 24th anniversary. The cabin was secluded, but close enough to hiking and restaurants. Cabin was great for a couple and had all we wanted.

Loved the creek running through the back! The peacefulness and tranquility was awesome! We love the cabin and the property!

Overall we enjoyed our week-long stay. The cabin was extremely clean upon arrival. Nice and cozy. Loved the fireplace, especially when getting up in the mornings. The hot tub was a disappointment. The water temperature was hot but the jets didn't work very well and we were told there was no filter. We only used it once but would have done so much more if it was in good working condition. We had a problem with the combination lock, evidently it malfunctioned on our first day there. The problem was resolved with the help of Ben(?) and Elijah. They were extremely helpful. Would recommend your rental agency to family and friends.

Loved everything about the Yearling! It will forever be a special place for us. Great memories were made as we celebrated our wedding anniversary and my birthday!
