Beautiful mountain view from the front porch! We saw lots of deer. The beds were comfortable! It has a really nice fireplace that was easy to turn on/off. We spent a day at Tweetsie Railroad for Heritage Weekend which was 30 miles away from the cabin. We traveled to Mt. Airy to visit the home place of Andy Griffith which was one and a half hours away. We didn't bring pets but it is pet friendly and would consider it for another stay.

Perfect for our family

We loved our stay at Wally and Cathy's cabin in Fleetwood. The cabin was the perfect size for us and our two small children. As soon as we entered, we felt right at home with all of the cozy, warm furnishings and wood interior. We loved the location -- good proximity to Hawksnest for snow tubing and even better driving distance to other towns like Boone and West Jefferson. We could not have asked for anything more and will definitely be back!

Early February Weekend Stay

This was planned to be a short trip for three friends over the weekend in a comfortable quiet cabin, and that’s exactly what it was; this place has all necessary amenities while still being secluded and close enough to Boone to make it an easy trip, we would absolutely recommend and again.

Blue Ridge getaway

This mountain side cabin has everything for a couples retreat. 2 bath 2 bed with gas fireplace. Wonderful view from the covered deck swing. Great sunsets with a gas fire pit in the deck. 2 burner gas grill. Obvious owners care for their place. Quiet area yet close enough to restaurant and town . Thanks for sharing your home .

Hiking and Cozy long weekend

There was plenty of room for others, but this snug cabin was perfect for one human and two dogs. Friendly neighbors when encountered on walks and a very peaceful area. Host was very helpful and responsive the couple of times when minor guidance's were needed. Looking forward to a return visit.

Weekend stay

Great stay, we received a little over an inch of snow, was beautiful. Luckily we had a 4runner that got us back and forth to the cabin. The roads aren’t that steep but would recommend 4wd if snowing.

If you want some solitude with reasonable comforts, a few days in this cabin is good medicine. Includes a nice view, yet close enough to Boone and West Jefferson if you get bored reading your book.

Quiet and cozy.

Wonderful cabin! Wally was very patient in answering all my questions. The kitchen was well stocked with all we needed to cook our meals. The fire pit was fun also, until the rain put a damper on that! A great cabin for a quiet getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Walter McCarty

Host profile image
Middle age couple that enjoys the outdoors.

We both work and truly enjoy getting away when we can to relax in the mountains.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I enjoy the mountains and visiting the Boone, Blowing Rock and West Jefferson areas. We had rented a cabin in the area and found that this cabin was for sale. It did not take long for us to make a decision, finalize an agreement and purchase the cabin. We have owned this cabin for 15 years.

We look forward each year to having our family gather for the Thanksgiving Day holiday where we cut our own Christmas tree and take it home. It has become a tradition and one we intend to follow for many years to come. It is a wonderful and relaxing area to visit.

What makes this property unique

Very quite and relaxing. Convenient to Boone, Blowing Rock, West Jefferson and all of the attractions that are in the area. We have added a large floor to ceiling stone fireplace to enjoy quiet evenings around the fire.
