Mtn Retreat with Fireplace, Views, and Large Porch

Welcome to Highlander Retreat! Our cabin is perfect for a family, couples or a group of friends looking to enjoy a mountain getaway. The retreat is a spacious chalet style mountain home with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, all on one level. Come enjoy this private home with vaulted wood ceilings, a gas fireplace in an open living room, perfect for gathering or reading your book by the fire. It is located in Seven Devils; close to Boone, Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Sugar and Beech ski resorts.

The space -
The Highlander Retreat sits at 4,000 feet, offering a private and spacious getaway, with a large deck to take in the majestic mountain views.

The living room, dining room and kitchen are all centered around a large, new gas fireplace. The living room features a new sectional couch, a desk area for those looking to work while on their getaway (fast WiFi), and a 60" tv. The dining room has a large kitchen table, accommodating 8 people. The kitchen is very well equipped with stainless steel appliances.

The deck is quite large, with an outdoor dining table, sitting area, and a grill. This space is perfect for eating outside, grilling out or just relaxing and taking in the mountain views.

The master bedroom is equipped with a king bed, a sitting area, an entrance directly to the deck, and an attached master bathroom.

Off the living room, the second bedroom has two new queen beds with a wide window to showcase the surrounding mountain views. This bedroom has a large attached closet which connects to a bathroom.

The third bedroom features a new double bunk bed, along with a tv and a 9 foot shuffleboard table for lots of family fun!

The second and third bedrooms have a shared adjoining bathroom, and there is a third full bathroom with laundry facilities.

Guest access -
There is an electronic keypad for access. Guests will have access to the entire house and property.
Please enter through the front door off of the deck.

Other things to note -
While our driveway is flat, the town of Seven Devils is located at 4,000 feet. We recommend 4WD/AWD in the winter in case of snow. We cannot predict or control the weather, so we don't offer refunds due to inclement weather. Please keep this in mind when booking and consider travel insurance if necessary!

YoutubeTV is provided. Please feel free to use your Netflix or other streaming accounts at the Highlander retreat.

We had a wonderful time at Clayton’s mountain home. Everything was perfect for our stay. Even with some rain and fog we were comfortable. Clayton and Liz were very helpful and responded to our messages in a timely manner. We certainly would love to come back to this fabulous place in the future.

Back for the second year in a row…all of our favorite things from last year plus more! This house is the best for our group. The open living room and kitchen, fire pit, shuffle board table, deck…we cannot say enough good things. The hosts are top notch—friendly and helpful. We are always sad when this weekend ends. Thank you for another great year!

Cozy and comfortable cabin feel with all the modern amenities! The cabin was well stocked with linens, soaps, and kitchen tools/spices a family could need. Plenty of room for a large family. We loved the gas fireplace and used it every night while watching TV or playing games. Very clean inside and out. Peaceful and quiet with amazing views. Close to everything. Will definitely will be coming back again.

The list of wonderful things about this past weekend’s mountain experience at this property just continues to grow! The hosts were fantastic with communicating. The checkin process was flawless. After we checked in, we probably said two dozen times “this place is perfect.” The house was clean and fit our group’s sleeping needs. The kitchen being open to the massive couch and beautiful fireplace was just what we wanted. The location made it easy to enjoy Wiseman’s View, Boone, and Blowing Rock while on our trip. Truly, cannot say enough good things and we will absolutely be coming back!

Be prepared for a winding road up the side of a mountain for a one level home that worked well for us and our son’s family. We were on one side and they were on the other side with lots of space between for active grandchildren. The kids loved playing outside in late fall. The outdoor terrain can be a challenge for older adults depending on any challenges you have as it’s on a hill. Large deck offers lots of outdoor level space. Huge inside fireplace offered extra warmth. Private with great outdoor views.

On that third day of our stay Hurricane Helene hit. Lost power. Undecided about leaving since we were booked 3 more days. The next day we lost water. Contacting host took 2-3 hours. Finally found a neighbor who told us about the seriousness of our location and helped us evacuate. Only road out was washing out. We could have used battery lighting and city water as our neighbors had. An evacuation plan included in the house information would have been help. Host is in another city Loved the house. Won’t go back.

Nicely located, conveniently away from city noise, in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by a barely disturbed forest, the house offers great views of the surrounding mountains (beautiful sunrise) from most living areas, and the deck. Close to trekking, skiing (Sugar Mountain, Beech Mountain), shopping, etc. Ideal for a family vacation. It has an efficient heating system and a fireplace (gas) which we all appreciated since we arrived during a cold front. The house is very clean, nicely decorated, and well-furnished all over, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, and living @ dining rooms like if it was our own house, with abundant extras such as good books, and an awesome TV (ideal "landing site" after skiing or other outdoor activities). Good beds and comfortable sleeping rooms, with a Master Bedroom separated by double doors from common areas, a "nice to have" when you want to rest. Communication with the owner was at all times, good, timely and friendly. We loved it, and would definitely recommend it.

Clean house and quiet neighborhood made for an enjoyable long weekend. Close to grocery store and an easy/short drive into either Boone or Banner Elk. Ended up skiing at Beech Mountain and was about a 30 min drive, but Sugar Mountain would be less than 15 mins away. House had everything we needed, including a boot dryer and a large hearth, which ended up being very useful when drying out our snow gear each day! We ended up getting "snowed in" one morning due to the slick conditions of the roads. The town does come around about every hour and put down salt, so the road does melt quickly and vehicles were eventually able to make it down the road that afternoon. A nice surprise was that the owners have the driveway plowed and sidewalk shoveled if a heavy snow does arrive during your stay. Recommend for your next stay!

Property was exactly as described and even more beautiful than the photos. Very thoughtful touches throughout that made our stay comfortable. We stayed as a meeting place for family for our daughters graduation from App state. It was perfect! I cooked several meals, the house was well equipped and very cozy and clean. It would be hard to get to in ice or snow, but luckily we had neither. Highly recommended.
