New Rental overlooking the New River - Cozy Cabin Between Boone and West Jefferson

Considering the surroundings & cabin are incredibly beautiful, I hate to say this is the worst experience I’ve ever had on vacation. My husband & I were on a long overdue trip, & trying to enjoy some peace & quiet before a big move with the military. Upon arriving, the house was absolutely freezing. Messaged the host about the broken fireplace & floorboard heaters not heating the space, & was met with immediate pushback. Said maintenance would be sent in the AM, but when morning came we followed up & was practically insulted on my intelligence if we could follow basic instructions. The blankets were putrid & had to be washed before use. Any time we asked for help it was met with condescending remarks, so we ended up checking out after one miserable night & being tired of spoken to like we were an inconvenience & liars rather than a paying guest. I’m sure the trip would’ve been lovely had it been anyone else co-hosting other than someone who shouldn’t be in hospitality.

Lovely place, difficult to find community space by the river though

Property is as described in listing. Beautiful, authentic log cabin w/ modern addition. Small, clean, well appointed kitchen. Comfortable loft bed w/ lots of windows. Like sleeping in a glamped up treehouse. Watched lightening bugs, stars, moon and even beautiful lightening storms with wonderful sounding rain on the tin roof. Great, clean bathroom/laundry room w/ ample water pressure and hot water. Awesome covered porches w/ plenty of hummingbirds! Look closely to see deer and beaver in the river below. Close but friendly neighbors. Awesome fire-pit! One downstairs window AC unit, ceiling fan & one floor fan in loft kept cabin very comfortable even during July NC heatwave. Very kind, responsive host. Modern conveniences - grocery stores, shopping, medical facility & restaurants approx. 18-20 mins. away. Would love to re-visit in the Fall as there are plenty of hardwoods to make for a gorgeous setting. Recommend for couples who are not bothered by stairs and uneven surfaces.

What a cute little cabin! We enjoyed our stay. The location was great. Take your own sponge for dishes if you plan to cook. There was only one rag that didn’t smell great so I had to use a hand towel to wash our dishes. (Owner, I’d recommend a 100% linen dish rag as they are naturally antimicrobial and won’t smell if you’ll continue to leave one for guests). Otherwise our stay was perfect!
