Bluestone Court is a well-appointed private mountain retreat on 2+ wooded acres at the base of Supinlick Ridge. While cozy and inviting inside, this property exemplifies outdoor living featuring a private swimming pool and sunbathing deck, hot tub, fire pit area, and covered outdoor living room complete with gas grill, flattop grill, sectional sofa, fire table and TV. A wide driveway and parking area easily accommodates four vehicles. Although this cabin is in a remote location, it's only 4.5 miles into the town of Basye with comforts such as Smiley's Ice Cream, Burn Barrel tavern, Pale Fire Brewing, and the Community Store (gas pumps). For those seeking year-round outdoor activities and additional dining, Bryce Resort is just 1.5 miles beyond Basye.
Please review the listing photos carefully. Many features of this traditional mountain cabin have been updated with modern amenities, but it retains a classy rustic charm. With two separate private living levels and huge outdoor entertaining area, it's a perfect location for families and groups that desire private outdoor relaxation!
