Mountain View & Lake View

Spent a long weekend with our family at this beautiful home. Had the best of both worlds with a mountain view and a lake view right out the back windows! Updated kitchen with everything we needed. Good communication with the owner. Enjoyed our stay!

Great view

Beautiful cabin with a magnificent view. Paul ( owner ) is very responsive to questions and sent us a helpful to - do list of the surrounding area. The cabin is about a 45 min drive to Damascus, where we rented bicycles for the Virginia Creeper Trail. ( a downhill 17 mile beautiful bike ride) which I highly recommend. Just a short downhill walk from the cabin is the community dock where we spent a lazy day swimming,fishing and using the cabin’s canoe.

This place is just amazing!

We had 2 families with 8 total people. The house was perfect for this many people. We liked that the kids could all be upstairs and the adults sleep comfortably downstairs. The views are amazing and it was fantastic just sitting on the deck drinking coffee or anything else and just chatting taking in the view. The road is very very steep so just expect that but it is something that you get used to. The winery up the road has fantastic pizza and some solid wine as well. This house had things that many rentals lack and we appreciated because it saved us trips to the store on a few occasions. We would love to stay here again! Off the beaten path and just close enough to things to make an afternoon of an activity with time to get back to the cabin for dinner and relaxation!

Family trip 2024

We had a great vacation. The cabin was exactly as shown in pictures. We wanted a trip just to enjoy our family time and not have any scheduled events. We played games, we did rent a boat for the day, we went to the local Mercantile for breakfast one morning, we went to Linville Caverns one day, we used the grill a couple times. We had planned on using hot tub but we didn't end up using it. The outside balconies had beautiful views. We would stay again for sure!! Paul was very responsive to a couple questions I had. The big thing I will tell any future guest is read all descriptions, I miss read a couple things so there was some confusion in my planning but nothing major. Paul's description is very accurate. Also, I would not suggest driving a vehicle larger than an SUV, it is a very steep drive up, roads are narrow and some tight turns. We rented a 12 person van so our family of 8 could all ride together. Let's just say it added a little flare to the drive up and down from the cabin. Lol

Beautiful view!

We enjoyed our stay, comfortable private and views are amazing! As mentioned the access to the dock is a little challenging but that is to be expected. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need to prepare meals, beverages etc.

Great property, beautiful location

Great property with an amazing view. Amenities complete, nothing we found lacking. Access to water is a nice hike and a bit of exercise up hill, or can drive and park. Liked the canoe and dock, had a great time at the lake. 30 min to Boone/Blowing rock and Blue Ridge Parkway, did some excursion, nice restaurants ice creams, and awesome hikes there. Can't find anything to complain about, though I am trying....

Relaxation and Family time

Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home. We had everything we needed. Truly was like heaven, decompressing and spending time with our family. The views were spectacular. We enjoyed the hot tub, sitting around the fire, games, and movies. We would love to come back in the future.

Beautiful, exactly as described.

This cabin was beautiful! My friends and I had the best time. The owner responded quickly with assistance anytime I needed it. My only complaint is not with the cabin itself, but with the area. The lake and mountains are perfect, but there is not much at all close by, and the neighbors did not seem very friendly towards us.

Simply relaxing...

Heaven's Gate was a fantastic property! We enjoyed every minute we spent at the house as well as on Lake Watauga. The house was clean, decorated beautifully, had all the kitchen utensils we needed, and plenty of room for our family. We enjoyed the views of the lake from the deck, spent time by the fire pit, and relaxed in the hot tub. We also enjoyed the canoe and used our own SUP to explore the lake from the community dock. Steep stairs to the dock was challenging, so we found alternate means to get my parents who are in their 80s onto our boat. The only thing we recommend is a new grill! It was starting to show its age. Overall, we had an amazing vacation and could not have asked for anything more!

Mountain Home with Great Lake View.

The home is very clean and neat. Lot of space for family gathering. Great bedrooms - the beds slept wonderful. Bathrooms were very clean and had towels for everyone. Kitchen was nice. Family loved the hot tub- very clean and well maintained. Deck was very nice- with lots of chairs for everyone to sit and enjoy the view while we were hanging out. Lots of wild life-Deer, squirrels , rabbits, and raccoons. Large table for every to enjoy a meal together. Cozy TV area. Very steep 1 lane road leading up the the home. May bother some if they are not used to mountain roads etc. Lots of steps - driveway and parking is on the basement level. - where there is 2 bedrooms , bathroom, and a nice laundry room. Just making mention in case there is anyone where stairs would hinder them. Overall a great stay and a great time here. Lots of room in this very clean and well thought out home.
