Among the Laurels | Covered Porch with Hot Tub | Bring Your Dogs

Escape to Among the Laurels, a cozy cabin perched beneath a beautiful forest canopy. Set on almost an entire acre of private land, there's room to spread out and explore, though you might just want to stay put with all this cabin's wonderful amenities. Get ready, because your new favorite vacation spot awaits.
--------------------------------------------
Indoor Spaces:
- Sleeping arrangements: Sleeps up to six guests. The main level primary bedroom features a king bed, private bathroom, and its own TV. Head upstairs to find the second bedroom, also featuring a king bed and private bath. In the loft, you'll find a sleeper sofa that provides ideal accommodations for kids or guests.
- Main level: Step into the cozy open floor plan of the main level, complete with a gorgeous kitchen and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. With a comfortable sofa, armchair, and loveseat, there's room for everyone to gather around the fire to catch up, play games, or watch a movie.
- Upper level: Want some alone time? Send your kids up to the second-floor loft, complete a second TV and DVD player. Or, head up there yourself to challenge your friends and family to a game of foosball.
- Among the Laurels comes with WiFi, AC, and satellite TVs.
- All Stay Blue Ridge vacation rentals include a complimentary starter pack with soaps, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, a roll of paper towels in the kitchen, dishwasher pods, and trash bags.
--------------------------------------------
Outdoor Spaces:
- While the inside is great, the deck is even better. Fully covered to protect you from the elements, this porch is the perfect year-round spot for reading and watching wildlife. Plus, a pristine hot tub is ready and waiting to bring you ultimate relaxation.
- Cooking at home? Fire up the gas grill on the deck and get your grub on.
- Just below the cabin is an outdoor fire pit where you can gather around to roast marshmallows, share stories, and stargaze.
- Among the Laurels is located in a private community with its own awesome amenities available to guests, including a scenic creek stocked with fish and a disc golf course.
--------------------------------------------
Local Surroundings:
- When you're ready for the pleasures of “civilization,” head on into downtown West Jefferson, less than a 15-minute drive away. Here, you can find all kinds of different shops and attractions, such as the famous Ashe Co. Cheese Factory. It's small-town Americana at its finest. You have your pick of the litter when it comes to restaurants, with everything from classic American fare to Thai cuisine. While in town, sample some of the High Country's finest local brews at New River Brewery or Boondocks.
- Here in Blue Ridge Country, the journey is as satisfying as the destination, with gorgeous scenery at every turn. There is no shortage of outdoor fun and adventure. For golf enthusiasts, Mountain Aire Golf Course offers a stunning 18-hole course set among the rolling hills of Appalachia. Looking for hiking trails? Check out Mount Jefferson State Natural Area and the Blue Ridge Parkway for both beginner-friendly and more challenging hikes (not to mention the exceptional views).
- Spring, summer, and fall visitors absolutely must take a trip out to the New River, a historic staple of Ashe County culture. Bring your own canoes, kayaks, fishing gear, and tubes, or book an outing with one of the local outfitters.
- If you're headed here in the winter, you're going to want to set aside a day to visit Appalachian Ski Mountain in Boone, roughly a 40-minute drive away. Boone is home to even more shopping and dining opportunities, as well as Appalachian State University, where you can catch college football games in the fall.
--------------------------------------------
Important Notes:
- Pet Policy: Dogs welcome! Two-dog limit. Must be leash and crate trained, two years or older, and 45lbs or less. $50 per pet, nonrefundable.
- Access: A gravel road and driveway lead into this cabin, so AWD or FWD is recommended, especially for winter travelers.
