Adorable Mountain Cabin

We had the best stay! The cabin was the perfect retreat for the weekend with our 2 kids and dog. The beds/bedding were super comfortable and we loved using the fire pit out back. The property was in a great spot for tubing at Beech, the Alpine coaster, and hiking Grandfather mountain. We would definitely stay again in the future!

Amazing house and location

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay and had plenty of space! The house was just as listed and had all amenities! We only brought clothes and grabbed a few groceries once we got there. It’s such a peaceful place thats not far from Beech Mountain restaurants and grocery. We had lots of snow when we arrived, which made our trip even more fun! Thank you for the stay! We will keep this place in mind for our next trip to Banner Elk!

Perfect

This cabin was a perfect getaway in the mountains. The neighborhood was quiet, the scenery was beautiful, and the cabin itself was super cozy. We had many deer visit each day, made smores with the outdoor fire pit, and enjoyed all the local activities. The pictures shown are true to what you get and Natalia was great! She was very welcoming and made sure everything was taken care of! We definitely would stay here again!
