About this property
Cabin Retreat in the Heart of the High Country
Welcome to Alice's Wonderland!
Located in the historic Valle Crucis community, the heart of the High Country, this unique home is conveniently situated between Boone and Banner Elk. This accommodating cabin is a sweet retreat nestled into the mountainside, overlooking the layered views and valleys below. This home is just two minutes from the historic Mast General store and the Valle Crucis Community Park, with multiple playgrounds, basketball courts, soccer fields, walking trails, and access to the Watauga River to enjoy fishing, swimming, and floating. Other nearby attractions include:
Greater Foscoe Mining Company (5 miles) Downtown Boone and Appalachian State University (6 miles) Grandfather Vineyard and Winery (6 miles) Blue Ridge Parkway (8 miles) Appalachian Ski Mountain (10 miles) Tweetsie Railroad Amusement Park (10 miles)
This one-level home has a master king bedroom with a TV and ensuite bathroom and a queen bedroom with deck access. There are lovely tongue-and-groove ceilings with a bright open skylight and a wall of windows in the living room, dining room, and kitchen. A little sleeping nook in the loft accessed by a climbing ladder could sleep one extra dextrous kid! Guests use the ladder to access the loft at their own risk. The spacious deck has outdoor dining and a nicely secluded hot tub for soaking with mountain views.
Alice's Wonderland includes a washer and dryer, wifi, TV programming, and central heat and air. Please plan to have AWD or 4WD and tire chains in winter weather. Up to two dogs are welcome with your reservation. Additional pet fees apply. *Allows pets with an additional fee.
Enjoy the High Country with a comfortable stay at Alice's Wonderland!
