Great service

The host was great and the cabin was amazing. She gave a full rundown of the rules and explained what the cabin had and didn't have which helped us to know what was needed to bring. I go to the mountains and stay in cabins often, I will definitely come back to this cabin.

Great place to stay

Located at a good distance between downtown Boone and banner elk, easy to access both places. Sugar mountain as well. Quiet and a beautiful mountain cabin. Porch is great. Lots of room to spread out over the 3 levels. Would rent again. You do have to access stairs to get to the main level. Thanks!

Our long weekend was great. The location was easy to access. We had more than enough space. The kids were able to play outside for a bit. It was very warm and cozy. Just a few miles from downtown Boone, Blowing Rock and Tweetsie Railroad.

Weekend Adventure

This was a girls' adventure weekend for us and we couldn't have had a better cabin. The location was central to all we wanted to do: zip-lining, mountain coaster, hiking, shopping and Grandfather Mountain. We had a mixed group of adults and teenagers and everyone was happy with the cabin. The kitchen was well stocked, everything was clean and the cabin was ready for our arrival. We unfortunately had a lot of rain on Saturday so the covered porch was a true blessing. Thanks for letting us stay!

Wonderful Girls Trip

Our book club recently did a mountain getaway and this was the perfect spot. The location was great and it was a wonderful house to gather in. The kitchen is really well appointed and there were plenty of televisions hooked up to lots of different streaming services to please everyone. I will note because I did not realize when I booked that the upstairs has no doors so it is more of a lofted area which would be ideal for children but was a little awkward for 5 adults. It was a wonderful weekend and I am so grateful to our wonderful hosts who were so accommodating with early check-in/out and great recommendations on where to eat in the area, super responsive and fabulous.

Red Lantern Lodge - Home Away from Home

Red Lantern Lodge exceeded my expectations. This cabin is ideal. The check in/out process was very easy. There is a lock box at the cabin which is very convenient. First, and most important, it is extremely clean from the floors, restrooms, linens, kitchen and utensils to the appliances. My family felt very comfortable and at home here. The kitchen was stocked nicely with everything needed to cook onsite and our family enjoyed awesome morning breakfasts. The cabin is very large, so my family of 9 all had our own space, which was a nice surprise. The WiFi was very good, but we tried to have a wifi free vacation and enjoyed lots of night time board games. The location is perfect. I loved sitting on the porch every morning while enjoying a hot tea. The cabin is at the beginning of a nice loop for exploring. If you want a good hill work out, go to the right, or if you would rather walk more downhill go to the left :) The area is very beautiful, we went exploring the neighborhood; enjoying the waterfalls and climbed a few rocks. The location is pretty close to most everything! There is a Dollar General and Lowes food nearby. We enjoyed Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Caverns, Linville Falls, Mystery Hill and Boone. Favorite restaurants: Twigs, Best Cellar, BooneShine Brewery, Coyote Kitchen, Peppers. There is a new Jamaican Patty place right up the road, we enjoyed sitting at the firepits roasting marshmallows, enjoying patties and good conversations with NO cell phones :) Thank you to the Parkers for sharing their beautiful cabin with us. We look forward to our next family adventure!

This property was spacious and a great fit for my family. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed since we cooked our meals. The porch with rockers and swing was our favorite! Granddaughter enjoyed the games and play room. Fireplace was an added luxury on the cool nights and mornings. Would love to have had a firepit for s'mores. We are already talking about renting for a longer stay next year.

Cozy Cabin

The cabin was nestled up a hill in a private, small community. Beautiful trees with 2 front porch views. The furniture was nice quality and fit the beautiful classy bear theme! The loft beds are exactly that, a loft, but they had their own bathroom so it was good for kids. We loved this property and the host was very sweet. It was very convenient to App, blue ridge, Tweetsie railroad, Banner Elk and a 30 min drive to grandfather mountain-perfect for us. You will definitely enjoy your stay.
