Weathering Heights

Hidden among the trees, Weathering Heights invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and settle into the rhythm of the High Country. This stunning cabin blends rustic charm with modern comfort, all just 15 minutes from Boone and Banner Elk and 20 minutes from Blowing Rock. From Sugar Mountain Ski Resort and Tweetsie Railroad to Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway, adventure is always within easy reach. Inside the main cabin, you’re welcomed by a warm, light-filled great room with soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. Rich wood interiors and skylights create a cozy yet airy atmosphere, while plush leather seating surrounds a stacked-stone gas fireplace and mounted TV—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The spacious kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring high-end stainless appliances, a gas stove and oven built into the center island, and counter space for everything from simple breakfasts to holiday feasts. Share meals at the dining table, or step outside to the expansive wraparound deck where multiple seating areas invite you to sip morning coffee or relax under the stars. Fire up the gas grill, dine together at the large outdoor table for ten, or gather around the stunning stacked-stone wood-burning fireplace. End the evening soaking in the hot tub, surrounded by peaceful woodland views. Above the detached garage, the game room offers a space all its own—ideal for friendly competition and laid-back fun. With a pool table, shuffleboard, electric fireplace, TV, high-top table, and a generous selection of board games, it’s a favorite hangout for guests of all ages. A cozy loft nook with a bean bag chair and bookshelf creates a quiet hideaway for young readers. The game room also provides additional sleeping accommodations, including a queen-size daybed, a queen-size sleeper sofa, and a full bathroom—perfect for those wanting to be apart. On the main level, the king primary suite offers a restful retreat complete with a private bath and TV. Upstairs, a second king bedroom and a thoughtfully designed bunk room featuring a twin-over-queen bunk, twin trundle each offer a private TV for a personal relaxation. A loft nook with a twin-over-twin bunk and privacy curtain adds even more flexibility.
