October 2026

My wife, dog & I had the best week celebrating my birthday at this cabin! It was beautiful, peaceful, and very comfortable. It has a great proximity to town while still feeling private. The balcony was a great place to relax and watch deer graze. Our dog absolutely loved it. I appreciated the dog bowls & mat they had set out. The kitchen was probably the most well stocked of any place I’ve ever stayed with cookware and utensils. Bed was very comfortable and it was so nice to wake up to a view of the mountains right behind your pillow every morning. We loved it so much we extended our stay by a night and the host was very helpful and responsive with that. We would absolutely return to Boone to stay here again and would recommend this cabin to anyone looking to stay in the area. Even our dog was sad to leave.

The house was great for our needs, the two patios, whirlpool and pool table made the stay even more enjoyable. Location was very convenient to downtown Boone and grocery shopping. Would stay there again.
