Our large, beloved home is perfect for your mountain getaway! Located in the Powder Horn community, about 10 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, 20 min. from downtown Boone, and 40 min. from Blowing Rock. The house is nestled in the woods, where viewing deer and wild turkey is a common experience, and birdlovers can see or hear the rare pileated woodpecker. This is a gated community which provides extra security, although the animals can come and go as they please.

The house has 3 levels:
The main floor has a fully equipped kitchen with dining nook, a full bathroom, two bedrooms (queen-sized bed in one, 2 twin beds in the other). The large den has a games table, TV (with Roku + local channels, DVD player and VCR), and sliding glass doors leading to the beautiful wrap-around deck, where you can sit among the treetops.
The entry, main floor and deck are wheelchair accessible.

The top floor has a loft with a bumper pool table, couch and twin bed with trundle underneath. There is also the primary bedroom with a queen-sized bed, full bath, and an outdoor balcony.

The ground floor has a ping-pong table, one double bed, one twin bed, a full bath, and a porch with a hammock.

We provide WiFi but please remember, although we pay for the best service on the mountain, we are still in the mountains! Our service can be spotty in adverse weather.

The Powder Horn Mountain community has hiking trails, an outdoor solar-heated swimming pool, lake with paddle boats, tennis courts, picnic area and a clubhouse. In the clubhouse you'll find pool tables, games, videos to borrow, and frequent community events. You can find more information about neighborhood amenities on their website.

    It’s definitely dated. I’d suggest updating some lighting because it was dark everywhere. The grill is listed, but not usable. The AC could not keep up and we were uncomfortable in some areas of the house - it was super warm that weekend. The musty smell in the entryway should be addressed. Maybe changing out the indoor/outdoor carpet could help.

    We had an extremely disturbing and unacceptable experience at this property, followed by months of unresolved issues afterward.While the home initially appeared beautiful, it was not clean or safe to stay in. After returning from grocery shopping on our first night, we discovered rodent droppings throughout the kitchen, including on counters and inside drawers. Cabinets were cluttered and not cleaned. Pots and pans were dirty with food residue and disorganized,we had to wash every dish and clean the counters and stove ourselves.As we inspected further, we found rodent feces and urine on bedroom blankets, a downstairs bathroom cabinet containing rodent droppings, a bait trap, and a rodent nest, and extremely loud rodent activity throughout the night in walls, closets, and cabinets. Multiple family members could not sleep, and most refused to stay due to the clear health and safety hazard.We contacted the host immediately and received no response. We then contacted VRBO, provided extensive photo documentation, and repeatedly asked only to be relocated, as we were over six hours from home. Despite multiple escalations, we were told repeatedly that our case had not been sent to the correct department. VRBO was unable to reach the host and ultimately offered only a 100 credit, which was inappropriate given the severity of the situation. We were forced to leave the property entirely.Days later, the owner finally responded, apologized, and offered a refund. She requested ph

    The cabin itself just needs a few updates to a more modern cabin look. Everything has this old look that is kind of creepy (just my opinion). I'm not bougie but i just need things to look a certain way. The kitchen was the worst for me regarding the pots/pans were all mismatched and the kitchen could use a complete makeover. All in all we had a great time and the host was amazing!

    The cabin was great as far as space and location goes. There was space for everyone in our two families party with young children and teens. The amenities in the community are great with a very nice pool by a small lake with paddle boats and a clubhouse for family hangouts. The cabin is desperately in need of floor upggrades with an old and stinky carpet and updates to the furniture are needed. Those two things would make a huge difference! The place was cleaned very well by the cleaning service however. Overall we enjoyed our stay!
