Very nice and secluded cabin.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
We had a nice stay at this cabin. The kitchen is small but we managed to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner in it. The kitchen was well stocked in some areas and lacking in others. The creek area was beautiful and we enjoyed going down there. The best part was the indoor wood burning fireplace. It was very cold while we were there and we enjoyed making fires. While the downstairs queen was a little firm I thought it was comfortable. Much better than most mattresses at other rentals we've stayed at. The proximity to West Jefferson and Boone was nice but you can hear 221 from the house. I would definitely recommend this rental to others!

This was a nice little cabin that looked to be well maintained. It was very private and the proximity to Boone and West Jefferson was nice. There are a few drawbacks to the house. The queen mattresses were very firm. Firm to the point where my wife and I decided to sleep in the individual twin beds in the guest room after the first night. If you do not like a firm mattress, this is not the place for you. Also the master bath has no door between it and the bedroom. A little separation there would be nice.

This was a great cabin tucked away all by itself, and we really enjoyed the creek.
