WINTER CAUTION: If you are staying with us in the winter months, please ensure your vehicle is equipped properly for mountain driving in the snow. This means an ALL WHEEL DRIVE or FOUR WHEEL DRIVE vehicle. ((FYI -If the back of your car does not say 4x4, AWD or 4WD, it likely is not four wheel drive.)) This property is accessed via a steep, narrow, gravel road, which may be icy or snowy during winter weather. Please be prepared to drive in snow and ice. In the heavy snow/ice times, you should consider purchasing the Travel Insurance offered by VRBO when making your reservation.
SUMMER CAUTION: Please watch carefully for wildlife. We have foxes, deer and even bears! Do not leave any food or trash outside the cabin. Do not leave food in your vehicles.
---------------------------- IMPORTANT DETAILS:
**Our cabin has a shared driveway with two other cabins and it is steep (however, it flattens out at the top with ample parking that fits four vehicles comfortably). In winter months, 4x4 OR AWD VEHICLES ARE REQUIRED to access the cabin. In summer months, FWD is sufficient. Trust us, though — the views at the top are worth the climb! **
**Apologies, no pets allowed, except certified service animals. (We have pet allergies in our family.)
**We do have two (2) OUTDOOR-only security cameras located at the front door & driveway. These are strictly for safety & security and are not monitored unless a safety issue arises or property rules are breached.

We love this property. It's our 2nd stay and we will be back for more. The views are amazing, the cabin is cozy and inviting and perfect for us. Clare has always been super responsive.
Enjoyed our stay! Conveniently located to Boone and Blowing Rock. House was clean, host communicated quickly, even made us aware of a short detour before arriving to the property. Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms, and provided beach towels for the hot tub. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us!

Kevin, so glad you enjoyed your stay! Come back and stay anytime!
The house was as advertised, and the hosts were great. Loved hanging out on the covered porch - it's surprisingly quiet in that valley which is a great location. King bed downstairs was comfortable. We did have an issue with some water leakage (it is a log cabin), which was unfortunate. However, the hosts were very responsive, got someone to look at it within an hour, and they were good with the follow up. Check out was a breeze. The driveway is tough, but with right vehicle no issue.

Thanks Steve! Glad you enjoyed the deck, the bed, the location and our communication. As with owning any home, issues do pop up, as you experienced. All we can do is address them as soon as possible, communicate clearly and not impede your stay too much. We deal with these things as they come. Come back and stay anytime!
Great place high up in the mountains! We went for a weekend getaway and the property was great. It was very relaxing to sit out on the patio and also enjoy the hot tub. The whole property was very clean, and they had everything we needed. Clare was very responsive to any messages I sent before or during the trip. I would definitely come back here with the family!

Thank you so much Gina! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Come back anytime !
House was very clean and secluded with a great view and plenty of room it’s not too far from Boone and blowing rock we spent our weekend site seeing so the location was perfect would stay again.
The cabin was great. Beautiful views. Enjoyed the hot tub. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds clean and comfy. Lots of board games available for kids to play. Definitely need 4WD to get up the driveway. We did have an issue with the hot tub not being clean on arrival, but hosts were prompt in response to messages and sent someone out to service the hot tub so we could use it that evening.

The best part of the cabin is the wrap-around porch and views. We love the location because it so peaceful and feels secluded, but just a short drive to Boone, the college campus, hustle and bustle, and many activities!
