About this property
120Yr Old Cabin Great for couple/family, 15 min from Boone, center of 200 acres!
Just 15 minutes from Boone/AppState... Close to all attactions... Summer...New river-Tubing/fishing 15 minutes away, Tweetsie-20 minutes Winter-Ski Slopes are just a short drive AppState families.... it is an easy drive to campus...perfect for family visits.
The property is secluded away from any developement....located on a 200 acre family farm. The cabin is located near a small creek with over 40 acres of land to explore. Trails will take you to a small private creek with native trout. From the front porch, you can see deer, turkey, and other wildlife.
This rustic cabin was relocated in 1957 from the original family home place. Cabin's kitchen will meet the needs of weekend visitors with modern conveniences. The private bedroom loft offers a large window that looks over 5 acres of pasture. The living area includes a TV (for DVD's only- no satellite or cable) and assortment of DVD's and games.
The main living areas has two sleeper sofas that will sleep four. We intentionally did not put Wi-Fi or Cable in the Cabin so you can truly get away. However cell service is strong so you can still receive text and voice messages.
Please note: the steps to the loft bedroom are steep.... Also, the front steps (3 steps) onto the porch are rock and the last one is higher that the first two. There is a smaller step to the right of the porch you can use to get onto the porch and into the house if needed. This cabin is not handicapped accessible... WINTER MONTHS...IF WE HAVE A BIG DUMP OF SNOW...YOU WILL NEED 4X4 or AWD to get up the last hill......No Snow....No Problem....But if we get a lot of snow you will need a vehicle that puts traction on all 4 tires....

A beautiful spot with so much history- the photos do not do this amazing property justice!
Our family was honored to stay in this 120 year old cabin on this amazing homestead and be a tiny part of its history. Absolutely great location, lovely short walk to the waterfall, it was so relaxing and stepping back in time to the basics. We loved our time and can't wait to come back!
This was our third stay here and is our go to place for weekend visits to Boone ans APP. Love the cozy cabin and the dogs love running in the big front yard.
Great convenient location, with a terrific yard for our dogs to play in. Cabin is cozy and clean, love the stone floor and huge logs the cabin was built with. Will definitely stay here again.
Stayed here to tour App and the home was great. Loved our stay.
The only thing I would offer my opinion for improvement would be a larger bed for the upstairs. We will stay here again.
Such a great peaceful, restful, getaway spot. We love to come and just enjoy the cabin. If you wish to go into town to shop or eat it’s very close. We also love that the owners dog, Oreo spent a good amount of time laying on the porch, which makes the place feel like home.
Cabin is charming. Property was beautiful. The rushing water from the stream is relaxing. We had up to 11 deer visit at dawn and dusk everyday. Great to getaway and it snowing while there was amazing to experience.
We really enjoyed the cabin a lot of history in the cabin. The view and the wildlife was amazing. The walk we took thru the woods and to the creek was delightful and a bit of a work out. The cabin is set in a beautiful place but yet close to blowing rock.
Clean, well-stocked, beautiful setting! Location was close to town but in the country at the same time. Very quiet and convenient. Just what we need for this trip!!
Beautiful cabin!!! My partner and I had such a wonderful and relaxing time staying at this cabin. Very close to town, so super easy to get around, but far away from the hustle and bustle of downtown so super peaceful. Our 3 dogs loved exploring the property. 10/10 stay, can’t wait to come back again sometime soon!!!
Had a splendid time here at this simple but very special place. Location is superb, owners are very accommodating and the space is peaceful and relaxing. Had an excellent quiet holiday here in 2023 and will always remember it. Loved coming in on Christmas to the cute decorations and coziness of this cabin! Thank you!
We loved this little cabin in the middle of a big field. At night it was so dark you could see all the stars.
We had more than enough room for us and our dog.
We hope to return on our next visit to the area!
This cabin provides peaceful seclusion from the every day world. It's mountain location provides access to streams, hiking paths and a lovely front porch to sit and relax. We have stayed here 2 times and plan on returning.
Great communication with the owner.
Check in/ check out was very easy.
We love everything about this place. We never left to go anywhere during our stay, we just played board games, sat by the fire, and watched dvds. Appreciated the new refrigerator and shower this year.
No WiFi-No Problem
Very close to Boone and Blowing Rock (seriously 10-15 minutes) but you feel 100 miles away. We took 2 Boston Terriers and they had a blast exploring the woods and trails. (Bring bug spray)
Owners are super nice and are obviously good folks!
