The master suite is above the garage and has a King bed, HDTV, private balcony overlooking the stunning mountain views, a walk in closet, and a private bathroom.
The outdoor living in this cabin is as amazing as the inside offerings. Besides the screened in porch with a swing, enjoy the open air patio with firepit table, the small enclosed side yard, a 3-seater hot tub under the stars, and a covered porch wrapping around two sides of the house facing the gorgeous mountain views. The views change every hour as you watch the clouds pass by and birds soar in the valleys below. During autumn the hillsides will be ablaze with beautiful changing leaves.
During winter, you won’t find a more convenient location for ski and snowboarding fun. The cabin is located just off Hwy 194 between Banner Elk and Valle Crucis, just 10 minutes from downtown Banner Elk and all its shopping and dining.
