Spacious Mountain Cabin in Gated Community

This tri-level home is perfect for your Blue Ridge getaway. Located in the Powder Horn community, approx. 20 min. from downtwon Boone and 10 min. from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Viewing deer and wild turkey is an everyday experience, and birdlovers occasionally see and often hear the rare piliated woodpecker.

The large master bedroom is on the top floor with a queen-sized bed, full bath, and sliding glass doors leading to a deck. The loft has a couch, bumper pool and a twin bed with a trundle.

The main floor offers a fully equipped kitchen with dining area, a large den with games table, and sliding glass doors leading to the deck. There is one bedroom with a queen-sized bed, one bedroom with two twin beds, and a full bath.

The ground floor has a ping pong table, one double bed, one twin bed, a full bath, and sliding glass doors to the ground floor deck.

We provide wifi, direct t.v. on 2 floors as well as dvd and vcr players, movies, books, games and puzzles. The direct t.v. only sometimes works, despite our best efforts. We pay for the best service on the mountain, but we are still in the mountains, so our service is spotty.

The Powder Horn community has hiking trails, an outdoor solar heated swimming pool, tennis courts, picnic area and a club house. In the club house you'll find pool tables, videos to borrow, and frequent community events.

A truly AWESOME mountain cabin
If you are looking for a 4 Seasons or Hilton, this is not for you. But, if you want to stay in a mountain cabin, you can't do much better than this. I will say the ride up is not for the faint of heart but it is actually fun. The house had plenty of room for everyone, tons of movies, books, and games. A great fireplace with a blower. Internet and Direct TV can be challenging - but honestly that is not the reason we went up there. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful home.

Cute and spacious
Overall very nice cabin. If you had kids that slept in sleeping bags you could get more than 11 in the cabin. Very nice wrap around porch. The grill could use a giod cleaning it was hard to get the flame all the way around but i got it. As they state hard to get anything to play on the tv but there is a dvd and vcr player with a good selection of movies. Yes theres a musty smell may need to het a dehumidifier gling in there and furnishings not as pictured and a bit outdated but in very good condition. The bumperpool rable was missing some if the balls but none in our group wanted to play it so thats ok. Theres a selection of board games and puzzles also. Very reasonably priced for such a big cabin. I dont think i would book in the winter with snow due to the turns in the roads but i bet its beautiful up there in the winter. Its hard to see on some of the roads at night with no street lamps and in the rain especially so i would be very careful if driving in at night the first time. My cousin left her id up there and the host was gracious enough to mail it back to us also.

Comfortable chalet
Property is spacious, 3-levels, a little dark inside. Wireless and cell service were challenging, but shelves were full of books and games. Roadway in to the chalet is not for those with motion sickness concerns. Overall we had a pleasant stay.

Christmas Tree Shopping
Our group was 6 adults, 1 teenager and a toddler for a weekend and we had a great time! I knew from the reviews that it was an older home but it was very clean, stocked with everything we needed, plenty of space and very cozy. We put up the provided baby gates to keep the 2 year old from going up and down the stairs. The internet worked fine as long as multiple people weren't using devices at the same time. We put a puzzle together, watched movies and saw several deer in the neighborhood. The only negative comment is that 1 person out of the whole group (me) got a little car sick from the curvy roads. It's a great place for the price but I recommend having everything you need upon arrival so you don't have to make multiple trips to town. We loved the house and would definitely visit again!

Adequate but in need of TLC
Our family of 7 adults and 2 children stayed for the weekend. The home is very outdated, and although the surfaces were fairly clean, overall it needs a lot of cleaning ie cobwebs in the kitchen cabinets, dusty furniture and dirty lamp shades. The carpet and furniture are old and the home smells musty. The place is very dark with lamps and ceiling fixtures that either don’t work or have burned out bulbs. The outside gas grill is unusable because it is filthy and had hundreds of ants and spiders climbing all over it. The A/C is not working. We were informed of this a couple of days before our 2 week cancellation deadline—too late to find another place over Labor Day. The kitchen is adequate but the cabinets are full of old pans, and the drawers are disorganized so it was hard to find things to use. There are no baking dishes or cookie sheets. The bathrooms were good except for the lights. The mattresses are old but adequate. The home is very isolated with no view of the mountains from the house. We enjoyed our stay as a family because we enjoyed the fact that it is rustic and the cable worked so we could watch football. The internet worked fairly well, and although somewhat difficult, we were able to enjoy family meals.

Very relaxing stay in the mountains was nice.
The pictures are old and some of the furniture is dated. It was good and clean. The gas grill worked but needs fixing or replacing. So quiet and peaceful sitting on the deck in the morning and evenings.

Tweetsie trip to Boone
We all liked this cabin. It made you feel very comfortable. I liked the older furniture and the character it showed. Would have been nice to be a little more accessible to Boone and Tweetsie. A little more of a drive, but great if you are looking for the secluded cabin adventure. Great clubhouse and pool.

Didn't love it
It WAS clean, though had a musty smell--not too bad. Furniture in family room and dining area are not what was shown on VRBO pics. A lot of the furniture was shoddy and old. Not good lighting at all in the family room area. Kitchen needs updated--just kind of disorganized and small and dark with old appliances. Check out instructions a little confusing--never found the 2nd set of keys we were told to leave on counter. We didn't try to contact the property manager. We didn't spend a lot of time there as we were attending a music festival in Wilksboro. Not a bad price and it's hard to get a booking for that weekend in the area. Not a terrible experience-- plenty of towels, toilet paper, etc; Would not have booked if pictures had been accurate.

Blast from the Past
Overall stay was fine. Unfortunately no snow (The reason for the vacation). Our first morning getting up and opening up the curtains, we had an encounter with a bat inside the house by the sliding glass doors in the living room. It probably came thru the chimney. We got it out, a nice jump start to our day LOL. Definitely needs an upgrade on the furniture (All mismatch)/TV's it was hard to relax. WIFI really sucked. Yes a stale/musty smell as you come in, my kids said it smelled like my late grandmothers house. HAHAHA I read some of the other reviews and already had the frebreze ready. The bed rooms a bit small. The stair case to the lower level is right at the corner of the living room, when you went by it, it seemed as if you were going to fall down the steps, wall should have been extended a little more out or something put there as an accent furniture. Loved the deck and the kitchen/dining room area. The price was not bad either! Thanks for letting us stay.

Family Getaway
Overall, it was a great getaway! The house is older, but plenty of room for all 9 of us! The kids (and dads!) especially enjoyed the ping-pong table! The kitchen could use a new frying pan and a new microwave, but other than that -fairly well stocked. Not quite as clean as I would have liked-especially with paying a cleaning fee. Our only complaint was the lighting! Several lamps and fixtures had burned out bulbs.

Great mountain cabin, lots of room, and great area. About 30 minutes or so from Boone/Blowing Rock . We had my son and daughter and their families with Bubba(grandad) as a family getaway. Only problem was weather- unseasonably WARM! But great place and time well spent!👍👍

Cozy and roomy mountain
We absolutely loved this home. The pictures don't do it justice. Beautiful location. All instructions and suggestions from owner are very clear. Furniture is older and decorations are dated. There is a slight musty smell. I still loved the house and we enjoyed our stay. They were 8 of us and room for more. We loved exploring the "Still Trail" across the road from house. Kitchen had most of what we needed. We cooked a big breakfast each morning. We saw 6 deer the last morning of our stay. Would stay again.

The cabin feel was exactly what we love and this place was it! Communication with the owner was above and beyond….answered my questions very quickly and we so great to work with! Highly recommend staying here. We had age range from 6-70 and everyone agreed it was perfect! Thanks again and we will be back!

Easy check in. Cabin could have been a little cleaner but it wasn’t too bad. Wish there was better lighting throughout. The only complaint I really have was the you could hear everything in the cabin. We heard conversations from every room in the house. If you wanted privacy you would have to whisper or go outside to talk.

Wonderful Place
This cabin was wonderful! Actually had more beds than listed! While we didn't need them, it was still nice to have the extra space. The cabin was far off in the woods, but that's expected for a cabin in the mountains. The decks were wonderful and peaceful, the guarded gate made me feel safe and secure. While the furnishings are dated, it blended in with the charm of the home - we enjoyed it immensely!
