Spacious cabin - great for multiple families!
We enjoyed a long weekend in Boone with family - the three floors were laid out perfectly for our needs. Lots to do in the house - and close by to many activities. Owners were great with making suggestions for activities and restaurants; as well as communicating in advance and during our stay. A great visit!

Cozy Home
We went to Beech and Sugar Mountain skiing with our kids. The proximity to each was great as well as it's location to Boone. We all had an amazing time. Rachel was the best host... Quick and helpful communication. The home was very comfortable and cozy. We really enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit out back! Thanks for a wonderful stay and the opportunity to make great family memories. :-)

The best place to stay in Boone
This property was amazing, so much room for everyone, nice and clean with lots of fun games to play. The ping pong table even got our teens off their devices! The location was great, close to downtown and the owner made the whole process easy. They even left my son’s favorite candy as a welcome gift. He was thrilled. We’d love to stay here again.

Bear Claw Cabin
Our family of 12 had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful cabin. With the 3 floors and 4 porches, it gave plenty room to spread out and enjoy some alone time. The hot tub was great to relax even though the weather was a little nippy. The owners were very friendly and helped with all our questions and quick to respond. We found that shopping, parks, restaurants, lots of attractions and the mast general store was a short drive. Great area to visit.
