We loved our stay at this cabin! It was super clean, well taken care of, and had everything we needed. We even saw deer right on the property, which was such a cool experience. The host was awesome — really friendly and quick to answer any questions. Would definitely stay here again!

Serene Getaway
My Family had an amazing stay. This was the perfect getaway for us. Check in was a breeze and Cabin was as pictured. We had plenty of space and something to do for all ages. From the guard hut to the neighbors everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming.
This cabin is warm and inviting yet hidden away up on a mountain! We had a lovely stay and would use it again when the opportunity comes.

From the owner: "Sorry for the late response, Brian, thank you for your 5 star review!! I always look forward to when I can go there and I never want to leave. It is the best place to relax and get with nature, especially the deer that come right up to the porch. We would love to have to stay again at Day's Mt. Retreat."
Spent a quick weekend in the mountains with kids and the property was perfect! Brand new stocked kitchen for cooking, cozy indoor fireplace with split wood, beautiful woods views from the porch swing. Kids got a kick out of sleeping in the bunk beds, enjoying the game shelf and the ping pong. By far the biggest hit was the deer that came right up to the porch every morning and evening to eat deer corn that the owners provided. Was just a perfect cozy home for the weekend!

From the owner: "Monique, I am so glad your trip was fantastic, even though that squirrel got in the house. I was so worried about that, and you all had such good attitudes and were laughing. Thank you so much. We have since had our pest control go over the outside to find out if there were any openings, so we never have this again! Thank you for your kindness."
Our family took a short weekend trip to Powder Horn Mountain and wanted something in the woods close to Boone. This cabin was exactly what we expected. Nice location in the middle of the community and had a great "cabin in the woods" feel. Owner was very responsive and the cabin was ready to go when we arrived.
