We had a wonderful stay in the charming cottage tucked in the mountains of Vilas. We were greeted by a lit Christmas tree and the cabin was the perfect size. I usually know a VRBO rental is going to be good by the kitchen and the bathrooms. Both were recently remodeled and perfect. Can’t wait to go back.

Christmas cabin

This cabin was so cozy and welcoming with a decorated Christmas tree and a wonderful mountain view from the large front window. It was big enough for a family of four and had lots of extra blankets to use even though the cabin heated-up nicely. There isn't much of a dining area if you need one but the kitchen is very nice. There are also skylights in the bedrooms; could be an issue for light-sleepers especially when it rains as it can be noisy. The king bed was very comfortable.I really like this cabin and would recommend it.

Perfect balance of old character and new conveniences

We absolutely loved this cabin - it was compact but comfortable for 4 adults. The setting, in early fall, is peaceful and gorgeous. We photographed a family of deer in the front yard this morning and played with neighbors’ pups yesterday. Yellow and red leaves were vibrant and stunning (our FB friends are jealous!). The kitchen and bathrooms have been renovated very nicely and the entire house is well stocked- from kitchen supplies to starter toiletries. Bedding was comfortable and the entire place was spotless. We will definitely be back!

Charming Cabin, Great Views!

This fully updated cabin is so charming and cozy! There are updates throughout the bathrooms and kitchen that are beautifully done and the sitting room/office is so cozy (complete with a small loft and a beautiful greenhouse window). We enjoyed the reading nook with fully stocked book shelf and had a family game night one evening with the included board games. The cabin is very clean and is stocked with everything you might need. We loved the location and took multiple trips to nearby attractions in Boone, Blowing Rock, and Valle Crucis (all within 20-30 minutes away). The mountain views from the porch are beautiful and can be enjoyed from all of the front-facing windows. Thankful for the opportunity to spend a long weekend on this beautiful property!

About the host

Hosted by Louise

Host profile image
We mainly live in Wilmington NC. We are native North Carolinians. We love to make spaces beautiful and comfortable.

Why they chose this property

First and foremost we love Vilas and its proximity to Boone, Valle Crucis and all the other fun areas. This neighborhood is in a great location but its far enough out that its country too. The best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

This cabin was lovingly built by a sweet couple that was married 60+ years. The beams are hand hewn.
