Welcome to Wilderness Lodge!

Luxury Vacation Rental near Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, Valle Crucis, Sugar Mountain, and Grandfather Mountain

Wilderness Lodge is a sprawling five (5) bedroom four and a half (4.5) bathroom, luxury Adirondack-style mountain home decorated with a tasteful Disney theme that fans and enthusiasts will appreciate, yet not overwhelming for those not drawn to the Disney aspect. Wilderness Lodge offers long-range panoramic mountain views and sits on a high-elevation mountain-top property in an exclusive gated neighborhood with paved roads. The house boasts a generous paved parking area on two levels and a large two-car garage accommodating as many as ten vehicles between the numerous parking options.

ACCOMMODATIONS SUMMARY:
Main Floor Master Bedroom with King Bed (sleeps 2)
Upstairs Master Bedroom with King & 2 Twin Beds (sleeps 4)
Upstairs Full Bedroom (sleeps 2)
Upstairs Twin Bedroom (sleeps 1)

The front door opens to an impressive foyer with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, custom ironwork, and beautiful hardwood floors, leading to the living room with comfortable upscale furniture facing an enormous wood-burning fireplace and a mounted 3D Smart TV with BluRay and AppleTV. The rear wall of windows frames an impressive, unobstructed, long-range mountain view.

The dining area is open to the living room with a view-side dining table that seats eight people. The adjacent sunroom has a six-seat breakfast table, accommodating 14 people at mealtime. Four bar stools at the kitchen island offer additional seating. The sunroom also provides a powder room, a desk, and windows allowing sunshine and showcasing Grandfather Mountain.

The custom kitchen is adjacent to the dining area and open to the dining and living areas, the foyer, and the sunroom. The kitchen has ample custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless appliances, including multiple ovens, a convection oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, a substantial side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, and a gas cooktop with six burners and a griddle. The huge center island has ample preparation space, extra drawers and cabinet space, a wine rack, and a wine refrigerator.

There are two master suites featuring king beds. The one on the main level features a dual-zone, double-mattress Sleep Number king bed, so each person can adjust the firmness and raise or lower the head and foot of the bed. Marvel at the grandeur of Grandfather Mountain from the comfort of your bed! The master suite has a stacked-stone gas log fireplace with a hand-carved mantle, a flat panel Smart TV, and a BluRay player. The master bathroom on the main floor boasts a Jacuzzi-style, two-person jetted tub, a fully-enclosed 3-head slate steam/shower, a double granite vanity, a commode closet, and a walk-in closet with a laundry chute.

The upstairs master suite is an enormous bedroom with a king bed and two twin beds, accommodating four people comfortably. This master suite features a view-side Juliette deck, a full bathroom with vaulted ceilings, a commode closet, a fully tiled tub and shower, and a granite vanity. The bedroom also has a Smart TV with a BluRay Player.

Cross the catwalk over the living room and foyer from the upstairs master suite to the two additional bedrooms, joined by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with custom tile work, double granite vanities, and a tub and shower. The full bedroom features a Smart TV, a stone fireplace with gas logs, and a view side Juliette deck. The twin bedroom has a Pooh's Corner theme and a Smart TV with a BluRay Player.

The first floor offers the Liberty Tree Tavern Bar, a large den and movie room with an ice maker and refrigerator/freezer for entertaining. Mounted over the bar is a 75-inch High Definition 3D Smart TV with Apple TV and a BluRay Player for memorable viewing events, and virtually all major streaming services are available along with an extensive library of purchased movies. The owners subscribe to Apple Music, so you have unlimited music streaming from both Apple TVs. Enjoy the large gas log stone fireplace, comfortable recliners, sofas, and rocking chairs. Under the stairway, you will find a well-decorated child's play nook with many creative things and a dartboard. A Hue lighting system lets you choose between unique lighting settings in the theater room. On the other side of the room is a dedicated gaming monitor with a Playstation 4 with games and accessories. The room also has a 12-foot African Mahogany shuffleboard table and a tournament-sized foosball table.

Also on the lower level is another large bedroom with a fun Noah's Ark theme, a handsome stone fireplace with gas logs, a Smart TV and BluRay Player, a king-size bed, and a rollaway twin bed. The lower level has a full bathroom and a large laundry room with a high-efficiency front-loading washer and dryer.

Step outside from the lower level onto the Adventureland Veranda to enjoy the top-of-the-line hot tub with lights and waterfalls. Or walk down to the unique rock garden, which is a massive boulder the house was built around. At ground level is a clearing featuring the fire pit with the mountains on one side and the giant boulder on the other. The expansive main-floor deck features open-air seating and an outdoor dining area with a gas grill, overlooking a stunning panorama of beautiful mountains and valleys with Grandfather Mountain as the centerpiece!

Enjoy the well-appointed Disney collectibles and advertising, which you will find whispered throughout every level of the Wilderness Lodge, owned by Disney enthusiasts and collectors of Disney memorabilia. They wish to share their passion and decades of Disney adventures and collecting with all guests lucky enough to stay at the Wilderness Lodge - both young and young at heart!

    BEAUTIFUL! Beautiful home and location. The owners made sure the driveway was scraped for us since there was snow. Such a wonderful stay. The view is amazing and so close to Boone or Blowing Rock.

    This house was perfect for a girl’s trip reunion. There were 11 of us. We had plenty of space. Our favorite thing to do was sit around the coffee table on the super cozy couches and talk and talk. The house was gorgeous! The views were breath taking. The floor to ceiling, wall to wall window allowed access to view the gorgeous mountains all day long. The house is equipped with absolutely everything you need to feel at home. If you’re a Disney fan, you’ll love all the little Disney accents all through the house. One of our girls is a Disney Travel Agent, so she got a big kick out of it. There’s s picnic table and another table out on the deck to use. I suggest bringing a few extra camping chairs If you plan on spending a lot of time out there taking in the views. My only complaint is there were a very large number of dead flies all over the house, especially by the windows. Other than that, we are looking forward to going back again next year!

    We stayed here for 5 days in February. The location was perfect for us - removed from town but close enough to take advantage of downtown Boone. The view was spectacular from the home. You will not get tired of looking out the large windows in the living room. The kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed the large master suite, complete with a steam shower. Would definitely recommend.

    We had a wonderful time at the Wilderness Lodge Cabin. We had a group of eight and everyone was able to have their own room. The cabin was in very good condition and came with most everything you needed for your stay. The cabin is at the top of the hill which gives you the most majestic views of the surrounding mountains. A four wheel drive vehicle kept the climb up nice and safe. We all really appreciated the Disney touches throughout the cabin. None of them were too over the top to put off any of your non-Disney loving guests. We used most every amenity the cabin had to offer. There were a few cons to the cabin. The clothes dryer was non-functional and this was not communicated to us. The remotes in each room were not always labeled or functional. (Spare batteries were not available when we arrived) The TV with the PS4 and Nintendo Wii was not very functional (in demo mode without a remote to control it). Overall, I would stay in this cabin again without hesitation. I think it would be even better to visit in the Spring when you don't have the possibility of attraction closures due to snow and ice.

    First off, I will start by saying this home is beautiful- it is situated on the top of a hill with unbelievable views. It is well stocked with anything you may think you need - sleds for sleigh riding, kitchen utensils, etc... A few things I did notice was it was not as clean as I would have liked- they have a few throw rugs around and one in particular in the den looked like it hadnt been vacuumed in a while- I was thrilled to find a vacuum tucked away in a closet on Friday! There was smeared food on one of the kitchen cabinets that I cleaned off and just some things were dusty- no biggie but the rugs were a little concerning. The dryer did not work and blew out cold air- Carolina Cabin rentals was great with this when I called them but since we were there during the most recent snow storm they were not able to get up the hill to fix it so they gave me a credit back- again- not really a big deal but when you want to dry up your wet snow clothes- its a problem. Biggest problem of all is the neighbor! LOL! This woman is nasty- we had 4 boys with us (not really boys- age 20) who were enjoying the snow and sledding along with some little neighbor kids and their mom- This woman comes out yelling at my son and his friends who politely say Ok- no prob and she then unleashes on the little 8 year old boy- screaming obscenities at him and whatnot making him cry- Well now an argument ensues with the little boys mom and the mean neighbor- The mom takes the kids home and the mean lady proceeds to stick a private property sign on the lawn- (Its hard to decipher whose property is whose in the snow) The boys decide to build a large snow hump in front of the sign so they dont make her mad and she proceeds to come back outside and take pictures of them with her camera (I was outside and saw the whole thing) Long story short- we knocked the hump down and went to another hill down the road. We loved Boone, again, the house location was awesome except for the next door neighbor! I would also use Carolina Cabin rentals again in a heartbeat as everything ran very smoothly. Thank You

    The house was great. Plenty of room. Beautiful views. Loved the game room. Would definitely come again. Only complaint would be the cleaning crew. Sadly, when we arrived, the first thing I noticed was how filthy the floors were on the main floor. Before we brought our stuff in, I had to sweep the entire main floor. Crumbs everywhere, in the kitchen all around the table and on the dining room chairs. Even into the LR on the couches and on the area rug. Sad there was no vacuum. It seemed like cake or donuts as I was seeing colorful sprinkles in the crumbs. Other than the lack of cleaning floors, it seemed clean and we had a wonderful stay. Thank you!
