Inside the home you will find everything needed for a comfortable stay. There are two bedrooms upstairs, each with a queen-size bed and a private full bathroom.

    We had to turn the hot tub up from the 80 degree setting to get in. We didn't bring our pet.

    The property and house were fine. The views are outstandingHowever the ride up and down to the home was awful. It takes an extra half hour to get anywhere from there because of the road'Having to make a daily trip to the dumpster was also not pleasant

    Wonderful home overlooking the mountains. Beautiful sunsets and cool mornings to enjoy our coffee and listening to the birds on the deck. Being from flat Florida, the road to the home was a little scary. Just me…..

    The pictures do not do the view justice. The cabin itself is beautiful, the trails & water nearby excellent, but the view of the mountains was the star of our vacation. 10/10, will go back.

    My husband, I, our son and his friend and our dog had a wonderful, relaxing vacation stay at the Buck Mountain Getaway. The cabin was well-appointed, with two large decks (where we spent most of our time enjoying the cool breezes and the view!!!!) and the boys had their own “floor” where they could play their video games without the “parents”. So happy to have have had the opportunity to enjoy our down time on Buck Mountain, in this beautiful home. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    It's a bit of a hike up the mountain but so very worth the trip! The view is spectacular and sitting in the hot tub or rockers enjoying the view was such a treat. Spectacular sunset. Very clean. Comfy beds. All the amenities you need. Highly recommend!!

    This was the perfect place for a restful and restorative getaway. The views are truly stunning, with beautiful sunsets as a result of the Southwestern exposure--we watched several from the hot tub! There is lots of room to spread out, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the owners are responsive and attentive. The location is remote, so heed the encouragement to buy groceries on your way up the mountain. It is true that once you arrive you won't want to leave! We spent 4 nights, and only ventured out once for a pleasant daytrip to Boone. We also enjoyed the firepit, and the welcome basket for smores and treats! Highly recommended.

    This was our second stay at the Buck Mountain Community-- and we can't wait to return! The cabin, the views, the property are all worth it! We enjoyed the fire pit, the hot tub, the fishing pond and the waterfall! We have two young boys and they enjoyed catching fish at the pond and crayfish at the waterfall. The sunset was stunning right from the back deck!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this adorable mountain home. The views are amazing and we had hours of entertainment watching the hummingbirds at the feeder on the upper deck. The hot tub is a nice bonus to the property. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars is because we felt we needed to clean a few things before using them (pots/pans/cooking utensils). Noteworthy for future guests: the pillows are very soft, so if that doesn't appeal to you, you should consider bringing your own.
