Rustic Retreat on Private 5 acres with Trout Stream

For everyone who has ever looked for a chink-log cabin in the woods - You have found it! This 5 bedroom, 3 bath cabin sits perfectly on a private 5 acres overlooking Howards Creek. This property is perfect for all age groups.

From the time you turn off Hwy 194 (only 3 miles to ASU) onto the private bridge over Howards Creek, the property becomes a tranquil retreat and yet so close to town.

You will notice the rock wall backdrop as you drive up the driveway (Plenty of room for several vehicles). As you enter the cabin there is a screened porch with a sectional as well as a gas grill that is permanently connected to a gas line (no need to change out tanks) and a gas burning fireplace. It is cozy with a 4-person high-top table and hanging low-lit lighting for any time of the day.

The cabin is well equipped with a large kitchen to include all items needed for family meals as well as a dining room that sits 8 adults comfortably. The kitchen has been updated with new appliances and is fully stocked for your needs. The living room has a gas burning fireplace so no need to cut wood. The staircase, mantel and most furniture have been custom made by a local artist.

On the main level there are 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Bedroom 1 has a king size custom bed with new mattress. There is a full bathroom in this suite and is decorated in a deer theme. Bedroom 2 (also on main level) has a queen custom made cedar bed and is decorated in a bear theme.
As you make your way up the staircase, you will find 3 more bedrooms as well as a full bathroom with tile shower. Ready for some fun - Upstairs boasts a game room to include a pool table, ping-pong table, Pac-Man video game and 9 foot shuffle-board game.

The front porch sits facing Howards Creek and you can often see deer or other forest animals roaming the property. You will find custom made cedar rockers on the front porch and the private 7 person hot-tub which is located under a gazabo and offers mood lighting.

Private hiking trails over the 5-acres and along the stocked trout stream offer 2 fire pits (1 at the home and 1 by the stream).
Furry Friends are welcome with deposit only. Please email and have all pets accounted for prior to renting.

Once we made it to the cabin, we really loved the location and the house. The Hot tub looked dirty so we didn't use it but I'm very cautious. My daughter loved the upstairs entertainment area. Highly recommend this property. We played pool for hours.. . tubs.

Great house/ fun stay
This property had something for everyone in my 5 person family. I loved the giant screen porch and the kids loved all the toys upstairs and the hot tub. The only downside was it was close enough to the road to hear traffic all the time. However we still enjoyed our time on the property and would recommend it.

I enjoyed the property very much! It would have been easier if we could have talked with someone directly about the booking. The only problem with the property was the steam shower stopped up.

Great family mountain vacation!
My family of 11 thoroughly enjoyed our mountain vacation! The creek was perfect for the little ones, ages 9 to 1, to play in. The cabin had everything we needed to cook big family meals, enjoy time around the fire pit and pool tables and just hang out together. Location was great in that it was so convenient to Boone. The road noise did make it slightly less serene on the porch but was wasn’t too bad. Overall great place to stay!

Had a great time!
Driving across the bridge and up the hill to the cabin the view was magical. The cabin was well-appointed. It was great for being together but also offered adequate space for each of us to have some privacy. The property was beautiful. It was lovely to have the sound of the creek in the background. The location was great. Remote enough to feel part of nature, but only 2 miles from town.

Near all boone, blowing rock and banner elk have to offer. Well designed for family groups. Window ac only which leads to very high humidity. Grill works well on porch and two fire pits.

Happy times!
Cabin is beautiful, as is the acerage surrounding the cabin. The kitchen is roomy with a table large enough to accommodate at least 10 guests. The kitchen is also well accommodated with everything you need to cook for a large group of people. Many hours were spent on the front poorch and the screened porch which are both charming and relaxing areas. Tammy was available by phone when we had questions. Our family throughly enjoyed our time spent at the cabin. We highly recommend this property.

Family ski vacation
We really enjoyed our stay here for our vacation. Our family of 11 (ages 2-58) were comfortable for our week stay. It was a 30 minute drive to a lot of the activities we did (sugar mountain, hawksnest, grandfather mountain, mountain coaster, trout fishing/ gem mining), but we don’t mind a little drive. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions, and very polite. Creek and fire pits were cool. Loved the little enclosure for the hot tub. Driveway fit 3 cars just fine. Cons: The shower in the master was kinda dirty/ moldy. And couldn’t get the indoor firepit on the side porch to work. But all in all wasn’t a big deal for us. Loved the house and location. Will definitely save for next family vacation to the area.
