Old Timey Charm with Modern Amenities

Take a step back in time at this unique and tranquil getaway. Originally built in the late 1800's and nestled in the beautiful mountains of western North Carolina. The Vicar House offers 1bedroom with a trundle day bed, an upstairs loft bedroom with a king size bed, updated bathroom, and full kitchen accommodations. Enjoy your time lounging on the back deck, roasting marshmallows in your firepit, rocking on the front porch, or dipping your toes in our refreshing Watauga River frontage! You are sure to relax in the quite country atmosphere!
Don't forget to enjoy the surrounding area attractions like the Valle Crucis Park and historical Mast General Store. Take a scenic drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway or visit nearby Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk where shopping, seasonal skiing, and fantastic restaurants are always at your fingertips.

I rated this cabin four stars due to the lack of air conditioning, which was mentioned in its rustic description. However, I genuinely enjoyed my stay. The cabin is lovely and located in a great area near attractions and restaurants. It's worth noting that this cabin may be more suitable for visits in the fall and winter when it is cooler. I plan to return during that time in the future.

Quaint Cabin in the Woods

The cabin was rustic, but with all the modern conveniences. Kitchen was nicely stocked with everything you could need. We especially enjoyed watching the deer in our yard, and the raccoons on the roof at night! A very charming, cozy cabin. We will definitely be returning.

This was a beautiful little cabin. We were visiting the Boone & Sugar Mtn. area and this was about 30 mins away. Perfect for our stay. Inside was everything we needed with beautiful decorations throughout. Very pleased with our stay and would book again.
