That’s next level customer service. We were familiar with the area but for those who are not it’s super helpful I’m sure. The place decor is so comfortable and welcoming. Spacious for family of 5 or more. Lower level TV with tons of movies and games for the whole family. Deer seen almost daily from the yard. Hot tub was a nice evening wind down from a day of hiking right from the back yard onto the trails to the water fall. Fire pit area was great for the evening also with s’mores and comfy seating. We will book again. ##### Cindy B. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David B.

The house is decorated so beautifully. Its dog friendly which is fantastic and so close to everything. We love the Seven Devil's area. The house is nestled down in a private area over looking beauutiful preserves. Right near Otter Paws Trail, which was so convenient. Their outdoor firepit is one of the best I have ever seen.

The backyard hiking trail to Otter Falls is a perfect way to start the morning. This is the best outfitted and labeled house we have stayed in. . .each kitchen cabinet and each light switch is clearly labeled so there is no fumbling around. There are three different porches to hang out on, and to watch the deer and fox wander by. We can't wait to come back next year! ##### Scott G.

Aug 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible Mountain Get-a-Way This cabin is absolutely as advertised and detailed by the multiple reviews I read prior to our stay. The cabin is highly amenitized with hot tub, game room, theater room and three levels of overall space (2,500 SF) that made all our time there quite enjoyable. As well being right near the trails to Otter Falls gave us a built in adventure we didn't have to travel to. My three sons and wife thoroughly enjoyed our visit and we would like to come again. I love the area as well up the mountain in Seven Devils, you are both remote from other nearby residences while also close enough to other homes/communities that you feel safe with the location, you have privacy here but are not out in the sticks so to speak. Great stay and would recommend to anyone. ##### Jeremy A. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynda W. Jan 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Family Get Away The Family Fun Cabin was perfect! My family and I had an amazing time. Our 3 children are young adults now and we all enjoyed our vacation. We were able to do it all...Skiing, snow tubing, shopping, antiquing, restaurants etc... We especially enjoyed the beautiful Otter Falls and hiking around the property. We were close to Boone as well as Hawksnest , Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain. The house was the perfect size for us and the game room and theater room were our favorite spots to hang out together. The weather was on the warm side especially for January so we missed seeing snow. However, we were able to enjoy a night by the firepit. The home was well stocked and had everything we needed for a great vacation and great memories. ##### Lynda W. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jere Y. Jul 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location and great experience First impressions are important, and our first impression of the cabin was a very positive one. The cabin was as expected from the listing, and very clean as well. The cabin is just off the road so you occasionally get a little road noise, but very little. The cabin is located on a roughed-in cul-de-sac, but is the only property built so it is quite private from that perspective. There is a trail immediately behind the property that leads down to Otter Falls, with the other end being a parking area for the public. You will see and hear groups of people hiking down the trail to the Falls throughout the day but they are far enough way, and the trail is mostly obscured by trees and shrubs, so again it is still private. One of the cabin features we really enjoyed was the hot tub. It is a full-sized hot tub and very comfortable. Also, this is the first hot tub at a cabin I’ve rented that will come up to full temperature when you set it there. Very nice! The bedrooms were all comfortable and clean. I slept as well as I would have back home. The main floor living area was a very nice open area and quite comfortable as well. One bonus was that it did not have a TV in the living room. That made that space a quite gathering place where you could just sit and read or otherwise relax. Downstairs are the “fun” rooms. A very spacious game room with full size pool table and a very nice bar with mini fridge as well. The other downstairs room is the home theater room with very comfortable couches, dimmable lights, and a very nice wall-mounted TV and sound system. The cabin is located close to many activities. Just down the mountain you are close to restaurants and tourist attractions. I recommend dropping into Grandview Restaurant for brunch, and Grandfather Vineyard and Winery for a wine tasting; both are within a mile of the turn to the neighborhood. Also close is a Food Lion and the town of Banner Elk. Grandfather Mountain is a modest drive but well worth it. ##### Jere Y. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane M.

The property was well lit and quiet. It had very easy access to a moderate level hiking trail. It was very well maintained and kept, even with allowing pets on the property. The owner had excellent care directions and set clear expectations for check in and out. ##### Susan H. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### julie b.

The Otter Falls is just down the path and is an easy hike to do daily. The house itself is cozy and easy to just want to hang out in. Love the fire pit, game room and the theater room downstairs. Not having a TV in the main den encourages being a family group by the fireplace. ##### julie b.

Great cabin on the Otter Falls Trail. Very clean and nicely appointed. Great Basement. Pool Table, Foosball Table, Pacman machine and Man-Cave with Recliners and TV - perfect for watching soccer matches. ##### Randy A. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna W.

Only thing we had issue with was some of the 'smart' appliances. Old school here. Not into the fancy coffee maker nor thermostat. But we would def stay there again. BEAUTIFUL CABIN AND LOCATION! 100 STARS! ##### Donna W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022
