About this property
Mountain Cabin with 180 degree panoramic views just 15 minutes from Hanging Rock
This incredible mountain getaway located just 27 miles from Winston-Salem and 10 miles from Hanging Rock State Park offers what may very well be the most beautiful views in North Carolina. Catch both the sunrise and sunset from the porch or comfort of the indoors and view the sparkling lights of the valley and stars at night.
It is the perfect place for a quick getaway or a long stay with family or friends. The cabin stands on top of a small cliff overlooking Winston-Salem and the valley between. Outdoor amenities include a two story wrap around porch, a tiered front lawn, two fire pits, and plenty of firewood for the indoor fireplaces.
Indoors you will find 2 large living spaces, 2 bedrooms, a loft, and 3 full bathrooms. The upstairs living area takes full advantage of the view with floor to ceiling windows and 180 degree panoramic views. Here you will also find a wood burning stone fireplace and fully stocked kitchen in an open floor plan. Also on this floor is 1 bedroom with a queen bed and 1 full bath along with a washer and dryer.
Behind the stone fireplace you will find a staircase that leads to the loft outfitted with a queen bed and private bath.
Downstairs you will find the second living area with another wood burning fireplace as well as a bar, entertainment area, and stone tile floors. The lower living area has views of the valley and its own wrap around porch. In addition to the living area there is one bedroom with 2 bunk beds, sleeping 6 if needed and a full bathroom.
This home cabin offers the best of all worlds. We would be honored have you as our guests.

My husband and I truly enjoyed our time at the edge of paradise!! The views are amazing, this was the cherry on the top for us. Jonathan is extremely helpful and responsive.
Great view! Property is a bit outdated and some of the fixtures are not functional such as fans and screens. The AC was marginal. Host responded within a day or two to communications.
Had a great weekend celebrating our daughter’s 13th birthday. This place is great. Had a few small issues and the host got right on it. I would definitely recommend staying here.
Jonathan’s house is a beautiful getaway. It is poised on the edge of a mountain overlooking beautiful North Carolina out to Winston-Salem in the distance. The house was very comfortable for our family of four and the open kitchen-living room with gorgeous cathedral ceilings and windows made it a wonderful place to wake up in. Hiking nearby was excellent.
This is a beautiful home with an amazing view. The only concerns we had were lack of attention to detail such as light bulbs burnt out, no lamps in primary den area (dim overhead lighting), couldn’t get ceiling fan to come on in bedroom, patio near hot tub wasn’t very clean, grill had not been cleaned. We loved the home itself otherwise.
The location and view were amazing; however, the condition of the house was less than described. The basics as described in the rental listing were not adequately provided, such as but not limited to only ONE washcloth available for a house that sleeps 10; lights and fans that did not work despite all switches being in the full ON position and remotes tried; lights that did work were extremely dim due to too low bulb wattage; dirty utensils and cookware; very limited cookware (ONE pot and 2 small-med frying pans; low water pressure neccessitating long wait periods between individuals taking showers, dirty bed linens as evidenced by a dirty sock not belonging to our guests being found in the bunk bed linen, extremely steep driveway making it difficult for cars without four wheel drive to easily access the main road from the house, etc....The owner was contacted about the basic concerns to which the response was we don't provide that level of service, we are don't have staff and we will address the concerns AFTER your rental is complete. This could be an amazing rental if the basics as described are provided, care given to the renter when concerns are raised and issues addressed immediately.

Over 30 item list of filth,, broken, dangerous, or not maintained filthy health hazard property.
I want a full refund on this. It was the most misleading stay I have ever had. I took over 30 photos of the disgust, filth, flat out broken, dangerous, missing, or ill maintenence. This is NOT a premium property and I will be filing report on this property with photo proof. White bath towels had yellow & brown stains, hot tub broken, dead German roaches in downstairs bar, only had 4 spoons, only had 3 butter knives we had to share spoons for cereal, the comforters smelled of body oder not laundered, the sheets pillow cases smelled of a person, pillows had yellow stains, broken handle on dryer, window screens ripped and swinging in the wind 10 window screen completely missing, new wood decking popping nails cut my son's toe bleeding, kitchen faucet leaking terribly, the most disgusting part was the master tub with the jets that they advertise pure black mold inside all 8 jets, tub jets don't work at all, wall jets trickle out, tub does not drain at all you stand in your filth, the sink in that bath doesn't drain and fills up disgusting toothpaste water. There was trash around the perimeter of the property, the sectional in the kids room downstairs was broken, not even a full set of dishes and silverware for 6 people we were sharing. The master Queen bed had a detached metal headboard that knocked against the wall when you moved on the bed, the lampshade in the master had a blood stain on it. I was mortified at the condition and as I stated I am seeking a full refund and will be sending 30 pictures as back up proof of these horrendous items of disgust. All it had was a view everything else was not a 5 star accommodation and certainly should not be advertised as that. I save up all year for a clean, safe maintained luxury cabin and I was taken advantage of on this rental, from filthy yellow stained bath towels, to dead german cockroaches, to black mold tub I had to bath in.
Overall we had a great time and views were beautiful ... Improvements needed - Lower level needs separate heating unit - one unit for entire home and it stayed in upper 50/low 60 degrees in LL inside for entire weekend - this is the main living room area w huge couch/tv and a bedroom there too (main level heated great), Only 8 (or less) count setting of silverware, 2 washcloths .... Some info needs updating on site - there was only 5 or 6 pieces of firewood, wifi information, provided on reservation, was inaccurate (no book w details), there is a hot tub (as you see in photos) and a gas grill too! Suggest you have all wheel or 4 wheel drive for driveway - one section of rough area (one guest almost got stuck). Overall we had a great time and host was quick to respond to questions.
A showstopper of a cabin with a breathtaking view. Pictures don't do it justice. Great for sunsets and relaxing. Host was extremely communicative and solved all issues we had immediately with no fuss. Clean and well furnished. Good internet, plenty of games, pool table, and perfectly secluded.
The view was the showstopper and we enjoyed every sunset and sunrise. The house was nice, but you could tell there were a few areas that needed some love and fixing. Beds and linens were clean. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. We had a great time!
Exactly as pictured in the listing. Most peaceful place I’ve ever stayed! A few cleanliness issues (especially the windows - couldn’t fully appreciate the outstanding views through dirty windows), but overall it was fantastic! I would suggest getting the landscaping lights fully operational, which would compliment the property even more. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.
The Good: Fabulous overlook, quiet, and relaxing. Just makes you want to pour a glass of wine, sit on the upstairs deck and go "ahhhh" and feel all your stress and worries release.
The hot tub is phenomenal. It has some of the strongest jets of any we have experienced previously. There is lots to do in the area for those not seeking riotous party life...hiking in the beautiful Hanging Rock State Park, wineries, and "Mayberry" in downtown Mt. Airy. For any questions or problems, our host Jonathon was remarkably quick in returning any queries we had. We were here for an annual Cousins'/Girls' visit, and this property was a great choice!
The Bad: We had planned to grill for one of our meals in, but there was no propane tank attached to the nice, fairly new grill. That was unexpected. Jonathon told us we could purchase one close by, but we didn't want to lug a propane tank to cook just one meal. Although we investigated the smaller, camping style tanks, the mechanical attachments were not compatible. Unless this was an oversight on the part of the owner, you will need to bring your own propane if you want to grill.
The lighting in the house is beautiful, soft ambient light. Hard to see, though! We were playing a game at the kitchen table and had to quit when the sun went down as the light wasn't adequate for us to see the game! This is not necessarily bad. For a nice, calming space the lights create a nice soft mood, but we would have liked a little more illumination in places, especially in the kitchen!
The Ugly: The house is surface clean, but really could use a deeper cleaning, especially considering the CoVid influence in our lives now. The beautiful kitchen cabinets and knobs were somewhat greasy to the touch, and the hardwood floors need a brisk cleaning in places.
We had a thoroughly wonderful visit here, and would consider returning, but our group unamimously voted for more than surface cleaning to be undertaken.
This property is fabulous! It was the perfect gathering place for our sons graduation from Wake Forest University. The Mountain View was spectacular for family photos. Plenty of space for meals and the cousins enjoyed hanging out on the lower level playing pool.
