About this property
New Upscale Hobbit Retreat w/ outdoor Kitchen on Elk River 4 miles to Banner Elk
Nestled high on the bank of the Beautiful Elk River, there lies a 1,500 sq. ft. Hobbit Retreat carved into the hillside amid the Poplar trees. Enjoy spectacular views of the Elk River and be mesmerized by the white noise as it cascades over the bus-size boulders below the house. You can almost fish for the fabled rainbow trout from the living room or either bedroom, but there are plenty of good spots on the bank below. When the fair winds blow enjoy a real fireplace inside or on the covered outdoor living area, complete with a built-in gas grill, sink and 50" TV. Both bedrooms and foyer have 50" Samsung smart TVs and the living room's is 65". The play loft has a 40" Samsung smart TV with a PS4. The kitchen is stocked with everything needed for a banquet: a gourmet Zline range, double door fridge, wine (or beer) fridge, slow cooker, presto pot, toaster oven, programable coffee maker, and all the dishes. Or choose to cook outside on the built-in Bull-Stallion gas grill.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Nick
Why they chose this property
We own a cabin at the top of the mountain on the same property (also on VRBO # 1207941) and have always loved this beautiful riverfront spot. We wanted a house that would not detract from the idyllic riverside setting, so what better than a round Hobbit House!
What makes this property unique
The moment you drive up to this cottage you start to feel enchanted. Step through the 7ft tall round door into the foyer and you'll be wowed by the scale and the attention to detail. The concrete walls built in to the side of the mountain shut-out the noise of the outside world while the windows on the river side let-in the light and open on the spectacular beauty of the river. Enjoy a book on one of the large rockers on the side porch overlooking the river. The rest of the story is what you make it.
