Our New Year Vacation

Communication with the owner was great, cabin was awesome, and views unbelievable, but understand to get a great view you have to drive to the top of the mountain, which was a bit challenging.

Home away from Home

We had a wonderful weekend at this mountain Cabin, it truly felt like a home away from home. Fully stocked kitchen for easy meal preparation, comfortable living area, nice size bed rooms with very comfortable beds. Hot tub with great views was an added bonus. The owner was very responsive, and hospitable. We will definitely stay again when in the Boone area!

Beautiful mountain stay

Our three generation family group thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin is new and very well stocked with kitchen supplies and games, including a foosball table and arcade game. We took advantage of the hot tub and wood burning fireplace, too. Since we are Florida folks used to flat straight roads, we did the drive up the narrow, winding road before dark, but it was definitely worth it for the peaceful location with a gorgeous view.

Located at the top of a mountain. The drive up a little scary the first time but the house suited us perfectly. Grandkids downstairs was great for them and us. They loved hot tub. Kitchen had everything you needed. A bathroom on every floor worked great also. Would definitely stay there again

Comfortable and antiquey

Very comfortable, all necessary ingredients for a nice fire, though some smoke does come inside the house, should clean out chimney I suppose :-). Kitchen has everything you need, we cooked some. TV situation was very good, which was nice because it was so cold and windy when we were there.

Beautiful Cabin

We absolutely loved the cabin and all of the antique decor. Plenty of room for our family of 6 that stayed. The road to the cabin is a little scary because it's so steep (especially for us Floridians used to the flat roads LOL) and the cabin is at the very top! But that also adds to the amazing views...you may need AWD or 4x4 during snowy times. The kids had so much fun with the games.

Top Of The Mountain

This beautiful cabin at the top of a mountain in Valle Crucis delivered in every way for our family's December vacation. My wife and adult children loved the incredible views, the comfortable accommodations, the fireplace, hot tub, foosball, and even old-school arcade games. It's convenient to Banner Elk, Boone, and Blowing Rock. The host was helpful and quick to respond to all our questions prior to the trip. Of all our recent mountain rentals, this tops the list. We hope to make the Owl's Roost part of our annual tradition.

Large cabin for family gathering

Beautiful spacious cabin on the top of the mountain. Very curvy road up to the house. We enjoyed the comfortable deck with the rocking chairs and swing and the mountain view. Four bedrooms provided plenty of privacy for our extended family group. The kitchen is well equipped for the meals we chose to prepare together at home. Be advised: You are expected to provide your own sheets and towels. We were not advised of this until after renting.

Celebration of Life for Terry Doherty

We visited to attend the Celebration of Life for my father Terry Doherty, who lived in Valle Crucis on Red Tailed Hawk Road, close to the cabin. My mother still lives there. All three of my sons (ages 24, 22, and 8) stayed with me, as well as cousins and friends. The cabin was perfect for us, and we really enjoyed it (especially the boys who played lots of games in the basement). The view was spectacular, similar to my parents house around the corner, but a little higher. We would definitely come back.
