Simply Irresistible: Authentic Log Cabin

The mountain views and privacy this genuine log cabin offers are irresistible. From the quaint drive along a country road through the woods, you will often pass cattle before you are welcomed with the site of hand-made rocking chairs and hot tub on a full porch. Once inside, you will feel warm and cozy surrounded by 200 year old timber walls, comfortable furniture, and a gas-burning fireplace. The kitchen is large and very well-equipped for cooking, baking, and gathering together. The main floor master bedroom offers a luxurious king size bed, while a second bedroom offers a queen bed. Upstairs you’ll find a large bedroom with two twin beds and one queen bed, as well as an en suite bathroom with a beautiful slipper tub. While rustic in decor, this cabin offers all the modern amenities for those who still need connection: fast WI-FI, unlimited domestic phone service, and satellite TV. Approx 30 minutes (19mi) to Boone or Jefferson (22mi), and only 22 minutes to Mountain City, TN (11mi). Approx. One Hour (33 miles) to popular ski hills. There are three security cameras on the property, covering the front yard, back yard, and front door.

Mountain Life

The cabin was beautiful as well as its surroundings, absolutely breathtaking!! We drove over to visit our daughter in Boone the only drawback was the excessive distance between Boone and Creston, otherwise it was an excellent stay.

AMAZING!!!

Let me just say, the pictures don’t even do this place justice. My family and I sworn Christmas here and it was all we could have ever wanted and more. The cabin is charming, clean and just secluded enough. Host was attentive, kind and made our stay feel extra special. If you’re looking for a cabin in NC, I couldn’t recommend this place more. We will absolutely be back :)

Wonderful, Clean and Restorative Stay

Cool space, nicely maintained, and really clean. Loved the peace and quiet. We really enjoyed the hot tub, cooking in the large kitchen, and sitting in the sunroom or on the front porch. It rained all weekend, and we still had a great time hanging out in the space. Owners were very responsive.We would stay again and highly recommend.

Perfect vacation.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Everything was described exactly the way it was and the owner, Jennifer, was fantastic when I needed to speak with her. Communication was amazing. I love the location because it’s away from everyone and we can enjoy ourselves without any sound from other folks. Just a perfect time.

Honestly Magical

We loved everything about this stay. Pictures don't do it justice! Property was clean and well maintained, spacious enough for our extended family of 5, and just absolutely beautiful. Kitchen and hottub were special highlights. 35minutes from both Boone and West Jefferson, and easy to just relax into the home and land. Visits from cows were an added perk!

Beautiful Cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful cabin. The owners had thought of everything...even a bag of ice was waiting in the freezer! Communication with the host was excellent. The cabin was very clean and inviting. And the kitchen was very large and had all the necessary utensils and appliances. We will definately book again and return to this beautiful quiet spot of heaven on earth.

Floridians in the Mountains

House was beautiful with all the amenities. Enjoyed the hot tub on a 30 degree night. Truely amazing but the roads up and down were a lot for a Floridian driver who isn’t used to twists and turns. still would so it again
