About this property
Rustic Retreat on Private 5 acres with Trout Stream
For everyone who has ever looked for a chink-log cabin in the woods - You have found it! This 5 bedroom, 3 bath cabin sits perfectly on a private 5 acres overlooking Howards Creek. This property is perfect for all age groups.
From the time you turn off Hwy 194 (only 3 miles to ASU) onto the private bridge over Howards Creek, the property becomes a tranquil retreat and yet so close to town.
You will notice the rock wall backdrop as you drive up the driveway (Plenty of room for several vehicles). As you enter the cabin there is a screened porch with a sectional as well as a gas grill that is permanently connected to a gas line (no need to change out tanks) and a gas burning fireplace. It is cozy with a 4-person high-top table and hanging low-lit lighting for any time of the day.
The cabin is well equipped with a large kitchen to include all items needed for family meals as well as a dining room that sits 8 adults comfortably. The kitchen has been updated with new appliances and is fully stocked for your needs. The living room has a gas burning fireplace so no need to cut wood. The staircase, mantel and most furniture have been custom made by a local artist.
On the main level there are 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Bedroom 1 has a king size custom bed with new mattress. There is a full bathroom in this suite and is decorated in a deer theme. Bedroom 2 (also on main level) has a queen custom made cedar bed and is decorated in a bear theme. As you make your way up the staircase, you will find 3 more bedrooms as well as a full bathroom with tile shower. Ready for some fun - Upstairs boasts a game room to include a pool table, ping-pong table, Pac-Man video game and 9 foot shuffle-board game.
The front porch sits facing Howards Creek and you can often see deer or other forest animals roaming the property. You will find custom made cedar rockers on the front porch and the private 7 person hot-tub which is located under a gazabo and offers mood lighting.
Private hiking trails over the 5-acres and along the stocked trout stream offer 2 fire pits (1 at the home and 1 by the stream). Furry Friends are welcome with deposit only. Please email and have all pets accounted for prior to renting.

Host is very helpful and communicative. It's a beautiful spot to just sit and enjoy nature and have a wonderful time. Thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and pool table! Pretty much everything that you would need for cooking easy meals there at the house. We had a wonderful stay!
The cabin was warm and inviting. Decorated beautifully for the holidays and plenty of space for our group to gather. The screened in porch was bigger than it appeared in the photos and the hot tub sits beneath a lovely covering with ambient lighting. The whole place was lovely and had that real log cabin vibe to it. Special touches throughout show that hosts take pride in the cabin.
The property was beautiful and exactly as described. Everything you need is there. Owner was very responsive and attentive. Loved the blackout drapes (we could sleep late if we wanted to!) Hot tub was wonderful. Great location.
This property may be better than advertised. It is in a great location just a few miles outside of Boone. Close enough to be back into town in minutes but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. Plenty of space for multiple people to sleep and also space to gather in dining area and living room. Would recommend this property to any medium to large group.
My family of 5 and our dog enjoyed the expansive property & cozy cabin! Hiking, family game nights & jacuzzi time were exactly what we needed! This cabin & acreage are minutes from everything but far enough away to be peaceful & quiet.
This was a wonderful cabin in the woods. Very peaceful and relaxing. Great location to get away and spend time with family. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay wish it could have been longer.
We loved our stay. The house was very clean and beautiful. Loved how promptly the host was in responding to all questions . Would rent this place again
Really enjoy our stay with our adult children and grandbaby. Very close to lots of great restaurants, brewpubs, attractions. Owner is quick to respond with any inquiries. Would recommend this super comfy gorgeous retreat!
Stayed at this cabin with 5 friends on our annual football reunion weekend. Cabin was a great location, only a couple miles from downtown Boone. Plenty of room and very nicely decorated. Enjoyed the game room.
Finally found time to get all the kids together in one place…….and the cabin was a perfect fit for our family. Fully stocked pantry, huge table for us to gather for dinner and games,a pool table that got plenty of use and a great hot tub. Plenty of room for 7 adults and a great hub for our daily outings. Tammy was easy to reach and helpful before and during our trip. A good time was had by all!
Everybody loved the cabin! The game room was a hit but the coziness of the living room with the fireplace was the favorite of most. Christmas decorations were up and made the family Christmas trip even more special. It is the definitely the cleanest and most well stocked cabin our family has used.
The house was great for a family, full of activities! Also, there were so many small extra details that the owner had thought of. We also enjoyed the beautiful stream and almost caught a trout!
We greatly enjoyed staying at this cabin! We loved the fact everybody had their own bedroom. We loved all the games and fun stuff to do as a family! Tammy was a wonderful host and so easy to work with! Will definitely stay at this cabin again!
Enjoyed the house. amenities, and proximity to downtown and restaurants. The game room was the nighttime hub playing pool and Galaga. The hot tub was enjoyable and comfortable.
The cabin is cozy and warm and is tucked up on the creek right off of one of the main roads with easy access to Boone. The cabin is clean and well equipped with all the comforts of home. We enjoyed our stay and especially cozying up to the beautiful living room fireplace after spending the day hiking and exploring the area.
This cabin is the most amazing cabin I have ever rented! So well stocked; so beautifully decorated; so roomy and welcoming! Host Tammy is so responsive and friendly! What a wonderful experience all around!!
The weather gave us a few hiccups but the host was amazing and we can’t wait to take more friends to experience this property. We had a great time. One of the best vacations so far. Took kids on their first ski trip and created “LOTS” of memories!!! Thanks again
The place is beautiful and it’s like you deep in the mountains but yet you’re just a few minutes from everything. It has every amenity you could want. Will definitely go back!
