About this property
Rustic Updated Cabin in the Heart of the Appalachian High Country
Escape to our charming little cabin, nestled on 15 acres of rolling pastureland and Christmas tree fields in the serene foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Built in the 1940s as a tenant farmer’s home, this hidden gem sits quietly up the hill behind our big old farmhouse, offering privacy and tranquility. Relax on the porch, watch the birds, and stargaze under clear mountain skies. Located in Ashe County, in North Carolina’s northwest corner near the Virginia line, you’re just minutes from adventure:
-15 minutes to Grayson Highlands State Park -20 minutes to White Top Mountain, Mount Rogers, the Appalachian Trail, and the Virginia Creeper Bike Trail -Steps away from Helton Creek, a local favorite for fishing, just across the road -Short drives to the New River and New River State Park
For a taste of local culture, explore nearby West Jefferson—a quaint town with boutique shops, cafes, a cheese factory, brewery, and a small museum in the historic courthouse. Enjoy the Saturday farmers market or summer street festivals featuring old-time and bluegrass music. Boone, Blowing Rock, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are just an hour away. Perfect for nature lovers, music enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a peaceful getaway, our cabin offers a slice of mountain life with all the comforts of home.

The location was perfect. Close to Grayson Highlands for hiking and recreation and close to West Jefferson for shops and restaurants. The cabin was amazing! We had absolutely everything we would have needed and more. We will definitely be keeping this place in mind for future stays in the area.
This is one of our favorite. Remote, Clean everything you need to have a wonderful few days. The views are just beautiful. Cozy bedding. I really cannot say enough about how much we loved this visit.
Sweet small cabin in the woods. Big enough though! Space was roomy, host was great. Showers are a bit small, but expected. The furniture was a little small also, (just the couch and 2 chairs). Hubby's knees are bad, difficult to get up from, but rocker worked for him. Very clean and had everything we needed. Peaceful inside and out, private. We recommend and will stay again.
My friend and I had a great stay at the cabin and really enjoyed the scenery and hiking in the area. We wanted to hike Mount Rogers. The cabin was close by to this and many other great hiking opportunities. The host was very responsive in her communication and we had everything that we needed to access the property when we arrived. There were clear instructions and information on the cabin and the surrounding area. The cabin had everything we needed. It was very well stocked including the kitchen, bathrooms, and extra blankets etc. The front porch was a really nice place to sit, relax and enjoy the solitude while listening to the many song birds in the area. My friend actually saw an indigo bunting which I sadly missed. It was also great that we each had our own room with an attached bathroom so we had complete privacy when we wanted it. I would definitely return to this cabin in the future.
My son just built a house in the area so my family decided to have a family reunion there. We had a wonderful time keeping ourselves busy the whole time. It is a beautiful area and looking forward to visiting it again.
We loved our stay! Very comfortable and cozy. Location was perfect. Host was very helpful. I want to stay here again. This is my best experience with VRBO.
This little place checked all the boxes for our low key girls’ weekend… quiet setting, great communication with owners, very comfortable beds, fantastic water pressure and plenty of hot water for showers!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Great location to visit Grayson Highlands State Park (Virginia), the Virginia Creeper Trail, West Jefferson, NC and nearby Boone, NC.
We enjoyed our stay in this rustic cabin. Great with two bedrooms and two baths. Easy access to Grayson Highlands SP and the Boone/West Jefferson area. Host was responsive and helpful throughout.
Great place to stay, very nicely decorated, comfortable and clean. It’s very peaceful and private, you can sit outside on two seperate decks, on the one in the back we enjoyed breakfast and in the evening we used the barbecue. Lots to do in the area, and so nice to have such a beautiful place to come home to after a busy day!
Perfect location for our trail race, very comfortable cabin, beds very comfortable, had all necessary supplies and extra to make stay enjoyable. Loved seeing the deer and cows while sitting on the front porch. WiFi was great! Very happy with stay.
We enjoyed this cozy cabin that was just right for us. We visited to get our Christmas tree. The location is great, host was very quick to respond to inquiries and our whole experience was amazing!
We had a great short trip! My son and husband enjoyed fishing across the street and caught a few trout. Overall it was relaxing and just what we needed. Thank you Mrs Rosemary!
The cabin is so quaint and beautiful! We were looking to disconnect and relax, and this stay did the trick! Rosemary is kind, helpful, and an excellent communicator. Highly recommend!! If you’re considering staying here, do it!
The cabin had all the features as listed, and the host, Rosemary, was responsive and helpful. There is a stream nearby with ambient flowing sound and a hill that offers a beautiful view of the surrounding area. I highly recommend the place.
