Perfect Mountain Getaway with Amazing Views
Must be at least 25 years of age to book.
Welcome to Valle Crucis Overlook!
Valle Crucis Overlook is a beautiful 3BR cabin, built in 2010, in a tranquil neighborhood and centrally located within a short drive of Valle Crucis, Boone, Sugar Mountain, Grandfather Mountain, or Banner Elk. The house has an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and high windows in the main living area. The living room has exposed timbers, a stacked stone fireplace with gas logs for cozy winter days, and a 60-inch mounted flat-screen TV.
The spacious back deck has tremendous views from the Boone area to Tennessee, a gas grill, a pub-style dining table, and two rustic rocking chairs. The front of the home has a covered front porch with swing, two rustic rocking chairs, and a large flagstone patio with an eleven-foot stacked stone fireplace. The patio has a large dining table and chairs. Build a fire and roast marshmallows, enjoy your favorite music on the outdoor speakers, or relax and spend time with your family and friends - this is the perfect spot!
The view from the back deck looks out over Valle Crucis across the Boone area to the Rich Mountain Range, which begins with Howards Knob in Boone and runs northwest into Tennessee. In summer, this view is rich and verdant, and the peaks are often snow-covered in winter.
The living room has two beautiful leather sofas and a comfortable recliner. The living room opens to the dining and kitchen areas, with a half bath in the main hall. The delightful kitchen has granite countertops and stainless appliances. Thoughtfully stocked by the owners, the kitchen is ready for almost any conceivable cooking activity by guests. The living room looks out to the covered front porch, the outdoor fireplace, and the patio with a swing for lazy days in summer. The location is private near the end of a non-thru street.
The master suite has a beautiful view, is on the main floor, and has a king bed and a flat-screen TV. The master bath has double sinks, granite counters, and a slate tile shower. You access the cozy loft by stairs in the living room. The queen bedroom upstairs has a TV. The third bedroom has twin-over-double bunk beds, a flat-screen television with a DVD player, and Xbox Kinect. The upstairs bedrooms share a full bathroom with a combination tub/shower.
There is high-speed wifi throughout the property and Hulu streaming with live TV throughout the home. The home has central forced air conditioning for those rare days when A/C is needed here in the mountains, a washer and dryer on the main level, and many other touches provided by the owners for your comfort.
*Access to Valle Crucis Overlook includes 1 1/2 miles of remote, mountainous gravel road. Four-wheel drive with chains is necessary if visiting during winter weather.
*There are natural boulder stairs (landscaped steps) from the parking area to the house entry.

These were wonderful accommodations! Very well equipped and comfortable. However. A strong suggestion to drive an SUV to access this home. The road is very rough in places and if weather conditions are bad it would be treacherous.
This cabin is so nice and the views are incredible! Everything was super clean, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, and the grill on the back porch worked great! We didn't have a chance to use the outdoor fireplace but it was really neat. I can see why a 4x4 is recommended but we didn't have any problems traveling to and from the cabin. Our family, including little ones, enjoyed and we hope to visit again!
This property has great views of the mountains in a secluded location. Everything was clean and worked well. The back deck is very spacious and offers amazing views at all times of the day. Very comfy beds, hot water and good water pressure. HVAC worked as it should and the kitchen is better equipped than most rentals. While I brought some of my own kitchen equip, they had everything I needed. The pics on the website are accurate. There is about a mile of gravel road leading to the property. I have an AWD and had no issues. A car can manage in normal/dry conditions but with any significant precipitation traction may be an issue. Great location that I already miss.....

The gas fireplace didn’t work right and beeped loudly from embarkation to debarkation. I messaged the host about it and he was less than helpful. I wanted to make a fire outside and the lighter that was in the kitchen had no fuel. The igniter on the grill didn’t work, and once again, the lighter didn’t either. The downstairs heat won’t get above about 67 degrees. The plug and play music for the porches and house doesn’t work. You better bathe together if you want enough hot water. The scenery was okay. Don’t go in winter without four wheel drive.
This is our second year at Outlook at Valle Crucis. it is our home away from home. it is a beautiful cabin, very well stocked, and tastefully decorated. The view is spectacular. we will never stay anywhere else when visiting the NC Highlands. Thank you!!
We had a wonderful time in Banner Elk at this beautiful property. The views were incredible. The location of the home is down a long gravel road with some turns and twists so just prepare yourself and you will be perfectly fine.
This house was beautiful and had a lot of nice features. We definitely enjoyed the well stocked kitchen. The fireplace outdoors was a nice addition however, we were told by the property mgr that we had to pay for a min of 5 days of wood, at a premium price, in order to use it. It turns out, that the owners provide wood for half the price on the honor system, for each time we used it, but we weren't informed of this. It would have been nice as we couldn't use the fireplace each night. The pictures show a hammock on the deck but there wasn't one and I was looking forward to lying in it all week. We all agreed that more chairs on the deck would be nice, as the high ones that go with the high top table aren't comfortable for long periods of time to enjoy the view. We certainly enjoyed the many blankets for being couch potatoes to watch the large tv. And they aren't kidding when they warn you of the steep roads to get there! Even with all these things, we had a lovely time and highly recommend it.
Our family had such an incredible stay at the Valle Crucis Overlook. This is a stunning cabin, with inspiring natural wood craftsmanship that had our whole family marveling at the aesthetics and the feel. Coupled with the outdoor fireplace and the scenic views (which we enjoyed with a snowfall), we could not have asked for a more memorable experience. This is a cabin that inspires long discussions by the fire and shared meals that last hours. Could not be happier with this property and overall experience.
We’re from Florida, and since our kids have never seen falling snow before, we were hoping to see some, and boy did we get to experience a true “winter wonderland” in the most beautiful, comfortable, fully-supplied (with modern, top-notch amenities) cabin ever! The view (both snowless and leafless trees, as well as the magical snowy panorama) leaves you breathless and renewed, the location is just right - not too far from the bigger towns (Boone, Banner Elk) and not too close to neighbors, so serene and beautifully landscaped. Inside, the inviting soaring fireplace keeps you cozy and together with the family. Kids loved the bunk beds and took over the 2nd FL with the lovely nook. We loved every moment there! Close to ski slopes too (30-45min away), and the street in front was perfect for an impromptu sledding! Even in blizzard weather, we just wanted to stay there forever! Can’t wait to see the place during the summer months!
Very nice house up in the mountains with amazing views. It is a 12 minute or so drive up the mountain off the main road. Everything was clean and as pictured. Lots of restaurants within 20 - minutes too. Will definitely look to come back.
Very nice cabin, great views and location, cabin was very spacious and had all you needed. Would recommend if you want a great get away and nice cabin this is it.
We had a great time staying at Valle Crucis Overlook. The interior is very cozy, and the view from the back deck is a treat. Be sure to check what time sunrise happens and wake up at least once for it, since the views face roughly east. The grill was as clean as any I've seen at a rental, and everything in the kitchen was in working order. I also appreciate the linens, dish towels, fresh sponge and dish soap. They also provide nice bath soap and shampoo ,which is a nice touch not all rentals provide. And the checkout steps were more reasonable than some rentals, especially with regard to the linens and the trash. Overall, I'd recommend it!
