About this property

Amazing Whimsical Mtn Cabin! Pet Friendly, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Winery, Skiing

Luxurious & cozy cabin full of whimsical artistic touches & lots of charming outdoor spaces nestled in rhododendrons, with a gorgeous outdoor stone fireplace and new hot tub! To make it even more amazing, it is also located in a resort community (Linville Land Harbor) with dog parks, hiking trails, a lake with a sandy beach and provided kayaks/paddleboats, river for fishing stocked trout, golf course, pool, pickleball courts, tennis courts, arcade and parks for children!

The cabin has just been fully renovated and is stocked with all new, comfortable and beautiful furnishings. In every room and throughout the outdoor spaces, you will see thoughtful touches curated to enhance your experience; fluffy robes for when you get out of the hot tub, high quality cookware, comfy chairs on the back deck to watch birds and enjoy your morning coffee, high quality linens/furniture, cozy ambient lighting everywhere, handmade art, and the list goes on.

There is even a Mac computer with great internet if you need to get some work done while staying.

Need toys, games, art supplies, costumes and books for the children to entertain themselves while you relax? We have you covered! There is a closet full of things for children. We also have 2 nice bicycles at the cabin for you to use for exploring the resort!

Additionally, this cabin is nestled in the PERFECT NC mountain location - quick access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, close to: quintessential mountain towns like Blowing Rock, Boone and Banner Elk, ski slopes, countless fun day trips to adventures such as amazing caverns. wineries, the breathtaking Linville Falls and Linville Gorge, Wiseman’s View, Grandfather Mountain, a mile high swinging bridge, gem mining, antique shopping, and the list goes on and on. There is so much beauty and wonder to experience in these magical mountains - come see for yourself!

Something else we love about this cabin/area is that it's an easy trip to explore Asheville (10 million visitors per year!) and the Biltmore House. So you can have all of the amazing offerings of this area plus be in Asheville in a little over an hour, if you want to expand your adventures.

When you stay with us, you are in good hands! Prior to renting out this cabin, my son and I owned a property outside Asheville that we successfully rented out on this platform and self-managed for 7 years, with over 200 5-star reviews! I sold that property and bought this one after very carefully considering all of the areas and options in these beautiful mountains. I fell in love with this area and over the past 8 months I have lovingly renovated this cabin and worked hard to provide here all the touches guests liked most at my previous property. When looking for a new property, I felt that the combination of an adorable mountain cabin in the middle of fantastic mountain adventure options, that also offered all of the amenities of a resort community, was optimal for providing guests (and me/my son) with a perfect mountain getaway experience. I think you will feel the same once you stay here!

This cozy and comfortable mountain house served as a wonderful base for our mountain hiking trip. Conveniently located near the Blue Ridge Parkway and Linville Falls area, we were just a short ride away from amazing hikes and views.The owner was exceptionally helpful with suggestions and information. Very responsive and a pleasure to work with. The house has all the comforts you would want - outdoor fireplace and grill, spa, and comfortable furnishings both in and out.Additionally, we were a short ride from Banner Elk and Blowing Rock for some excellent food, treats, and shopping. A trip definitely worth making again. We look forward to another visit here soon!

cutest cabin

The cabin is just like the pictures, it had everything you could need and was very close to any activities. It was the perfect getaway and after hours on the slopes the hot tub was heavenly. It really feels like your staying in a story book, couldn't be happier with our stay.

Magical cabine!

We love this magical cabin. It is decorated in mushrooms and woodland whimsy inside and out. It was well-equipped for a comfortable stay. We didn't bring our dog on this trip, but the house is also geared towards a comfortable stay for your dog, so next time, I plan to bring ours. I will definitely be back.

Cleverly decorated cabin with lots of fun features to catch your eye and give you pause. The cabin is well appointed and such a pleasure to stay in that we hated to leave. Melissa was very friendly and quick to respond to our questions. We really enjoyed this rental.

Newland cabin stay

Our stay was pleasant and owner was super nice and easy to work with. While nicely decorated and private, would not consider to be a true 2 bedroom property as bunk bedroom separated from kitchen only by a curtain. Quite cozy with lots of neat touches and hot tub and outdoor fireplace and seating are great.

Exceeded Expectations!

I knew this cabin would be special after seeing the pictures but was blown away by the attention to detail. Melissa, the owner, has made this cabin a feel of home for all guests. It is truly beautiful. While there is so many options for things to do & places to visit in the area, I could have just stayed at the cabin & would have still had the best weekend. This cabin is definitely on my list to visit again!

Perfect!

This was our best mountain stay yet! We enjoyed this charming and very clean cabin. It is in the perfect location to enjoy all the mountains offer. We walked the swinging bridge at Grandfather Mountain, hiked at Linville Falls, visited several wineries, and shopped downtown Blowing Rock. We even enjoyed an evening of live music under the trees at nearby Old Hampton Store. Our little dog enjoyed the special touches like the soft blankets left just for pets. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Anniversary Getaway

We spent the weekend at the property, and it couldn't have been any nicer. We had been to the Blowing Rock and Banner Elk area before, but it was over 15 years ago. It was so nice that instead of going to a restaurant for our anniversary, we grabbed a couple of steaks and made our dinner. We decided to eat both meals at the house. The house was stocked with everything you could need for your stay. Many times I would ask my wife, "I wonder if they have..." and sure enough it was there. The bed was comfortable, and the decor was interesting but very cool and lovely at the same time. It felt like we were not in a neighborhood. The owner checked in on us to make sure everything was going well. We would most definitely stay at this property again.

Adorable Cottage in the Mountains

Do not be fooled by the lack of reviews. This property was amazing. My boyfriend and I booked a short week stay and it was not enough. The host was readily available to answer all our questions and communicated where everything was in the cabin, down to the light switches. There is everything you could need. There is parking on property that is easy to access. Great if you are unfamiliar with the mountains in Carolina. The cabin is also close proximity to popular areas like Grandfather mountain, Boone, and Banner elk. We tried out some of the host's recommendations like the Linville Winery and Grandfather mountain, which you cannot miss. If you like golf, you are in luck. There is a course in the community as well as several around the area. We played Sugar mountain public course and the Boone Golf Club, which both have stellar views. Hope to come up in the fall sometime.

Waiting for gnomes!

We spent 2 nights here in mid-October and it was marvelous! Although in a resort community, we felt like we were in a very private cabin. I was swooning over the charming forest themed decor and kept saying Look at this! every 5 minutes. We did make light breakfast and dinner both nights and found everything we needed in the well appointed kitchen. I appreciated the clear directions on where to find everything (esp light switches for outside spaces). We made use of both the hot tub and outdoor fireplace and both functioned beautifully. Our communication with our host was great. In communicating, her and her son made a wonderful room sign for our daughter with special needs who was extremely excited to have her own space! A lot of love went into creating this suave and it shows. We are already going through schedules to plan a return trip. Highly recommend.

Everything about our stay was perfect! The cabin was so cozy and cute! It was decorated so beautifully with tons of detail! It had all the amenities we needed plus more! The outside area was so secluded and we felt like we were in a fairy garden! The hot tub was amazing! The neighborhood was very nice. The owners put so much thought and detail into their cabin! We had a wonderful stay! We will definitely be back! We highly recommend it!
