About this property

Waters Fall - private, stunning setting in gated Hound Ears. Close to BR & Boone

Waters Fall is a remarkable mountain home located in the Hound Ears resort community, just minutes from Blowing Rock, Boone, and Historic Valle Crucis, however, you may never leave the home and the gorgeous surroundings. Water cascades down the property and runs under the spacious deck and cantilevered screened porch before falling another 20' on the rocks below. Relax with family, friends or just on your own in your private grotto.

The charming home features modern amenities while maintaining the coziness of an authentic, mountain A-frame. Enjoy High-speed internet and convenient charging ports throughout the house. A great room with massive wood burning stone fireplace (wood supplied) and comfy sitting area, along with a 55” smart TV with the most popular apps including YouTube TV, Netflix and Amazon Video. An HDMI cable connects to your computer for direct streaming. The updated kitchen includes a double convection oven, quiet dishwasher, garbage disposal, microwave, and Amazon Alexa voice assistant. Each floor includes a Master bedroom with full bath. The upstairs bath includes a whirlpool tub and separate standup shower along with a full-sized washer and dryer. Climb the spiral stairs to the Eagle's Nest loft -- a perfect, private space for a tree-house-like escape.

Outside, enjoy the spacious deck and soak in the beautiful view. The screened porch includes a dining table for 8 and comfy seating for a good read or that afternoon nap. You’re only a few minutes to Blowing Rock and the Blue Ridge Parkway, Valle Crucis or Boone… and just a short drive to Banner Elk, Grandfather Mountain, and all the local ski resorts. The home includes convenient, flat parking for two vehicles and it is only one small step from street level to the house entrance -- a mountain house rarity.

The Waters Fall Host Fee provides for Hound Ears 24/7 guarded/gated security, 24/7 emergency response, road clearing & grounds care and maintenance, garbage pickup, firewood, propane for outdoor fire pit, and access to the Hound Ears boulders & picnic area and Hound Ears trails. The home also includes a 24/7 outdoor security camera mounted under the eave of the porch.

Waters Fall is a “special moments” home, perfect for exploring all the area has to offer, or simply enjoying a getaway to the soothing sight and sound of water with the sun shining through the trees.

Christmas Break Getaway

We had a wonderful visit. Even though it rained most of the time we were there, it was actually perfect. The host had strong internet for movie nights and supplied multiple age appropriate games. The host was extremely helpful and responsive and even offered activities in the area that we could do and stay dry. We’re already planning our next visit.

Great secluded cabin with waterfall!

Our family loved this cabin and the host was very communicative and helpful. Our daughter sat outside and read her book while listening to the waterfall and we enjoyed the wood burning fireplace on the chilly nights. The loft was adorable and our daughter felt like a princess in a tower. We were even able to go work out in the community gym. Absolutely love this place and will be returning!

Sun, snow and ice - and everything nice

A lovely, clean and well-cared for cabin in a beautiful setting - our little family truly enjoyed being here. We spent the sunshiny days hiking along the Tanawha trail, out to Hebron Falls (a perfect family ‘playground’), and the short but sweet Green Knob loop. All of these were a a quick and lovely 15’ drive from the cabin.The cabin was well-stocked w firewood and we truly enjoyed a blazing fireplace on the colder nights. The deck and gazebo are extraordinary, and the creek flowing underneath provided a constant and pleasant natural soundtrack for the stay, day and night. We spent time all through the cabin, and were comfortable everywhere really. On our last night, it snowed starting in the evening, and we had a blast throwing snowballs and later having smores inside by the crackling fire, cozy again. We’re from Florida, so waking up to a blanket of snow on our last morning was truly magical. It’s a sweet spot, and gave us a memorable trip, and Lynn is kind and communicative as a host. We hope to return another time.

Perfect and Unique Alpine Cabin

We were so excited to stumble across this cabin on VRBO, and it did not disappoint! Our family of 5 stayed the week of Christmas and enjoyed such a comfortable and cozy stay. Lynn was wonderful to work with, and her cabin has ALL the comforts of home. The Hound Ears Club community is so nice and well-cared for. We felt so safe in the gated community. Lynn's property is one-of-a-kind! We enjoyed the waterfall creek, gas firepit, wood-burning fire place in the living area, and electric fireplace in the upstairs master. Our teenage daughter loved the loft bedroom! It was the perfect place for a winter vacation, and we hope to visit in other seasons.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Neal

Host profile image
Always the mountains.

The sound, the calm, the water, the woods, the people.

Why they chose this property

I'm not objective. There is a love of the mountains, yes,... but. There is something about this piece of land that captures my heart -- in the morning, during the day, and blissfully at night -- with the light shining on the water, the stories of the day and laughter with friends and family. Snapshots of best times.

I am not a rental professional or part of a corporation. This is my family home and I feel blessed to share it with others and hear their stories. Hopefully your story, too.
