Just head out your front door to fish, or enjoy the river view from your porch while staying in this cozy riverfront cabin with AC, firepit, gas fireplace, and a relaxing hot tub. Kids enjoy wading the shallow section nearby, or playing in the flat yard, while adults cast a line in. Just minutes from the historic Mast General Store and ever-popular Valle Crucis Park, it is still convenient to historic downtown Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk as well. ACCOMMODATIONS: Main level: Master with queen and private bath with walk-in shower, second bedroom with king, second full bath Upper level: Loft with two twins Looking for a Valle Crucis riverfront cabin that is peaceful yet still convenient to everything? Welcome to Bridgepoint Cabin, located right on the Watauga River. Whether you want to step off your porch for fishing and wading, or just rock away the hours while listening to the river roll by, this family vacation rental is for you! The convenient single-level living and flat yard are a plus for families with young children and grandparents alike. Best of all, you are still just five minutes from historic downtown Boone and within a few more minutes of Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, the Blue Ridge Parkway and Grandfather Mountain. As you approach the cabin across the wooden bridge, look to your left and you are likely to see someone taking advantage of the great trout fishing in this section of the river. A glance to the right and you may see one of the grey herons that frequent this stretch – they are fishing too! No need to give up your river view when going inside – the open living area overlooks the river. On chilly days, enjoy a fire in the custom gas fireplace while relaxing in the comfortable furnishings, or enjoy a movie on the flat screen television. The open kitchen with tiled counters and backsplash makes meal preparation a snap so you can get back outside for more High Country adventures. Time for bed? Just off the main living area are two wood-paneled bedrooms. The master has a king bed and television with all the best streaming apps already downloaded so you can use your own credentials and not lose track of your favorite shows' progress. The second bedroom has a lovely wood and scrollwork queen bed. Upstairs in the loft you'll find two twin beds, for a total sleeping space for 6 guests. In the mornings, we recommend stepping out through the French doors to the covered porch with your coffee and settling in on the porch swing while you watch the mist rise off the river. After breakfast, head just a couple miles down the road and visit the original Mast General Store. After that, why not stop in at the little deli and pick up some sandwiches or a slice of one of their great desserts, then pull in at the popular Valle Crucis Park for a picnic. After lunch, the family can choose their activity – enjoy a stroll or bike ride on the paved paths, let the kids play on the swings, or take advantage of another fishing opportunity – the park offers both river access and a stocked pond for the kids to try, unless they prefer trying to catch one of the large bullfrogs! Summer evenings often offer live Music in the Valle there at the park for a little foot-tapping fun. That evening, back at Bridgepoint Cabin, walk across the yard to the river and enjoy! Feet sore from all the day's exploring? Just have a seat on the riverbank and soak them in the cool water. There is a shallow section flowing across the rocks where the kids can play, or cast a line into the deeper sections and see if you can catch dinner. There's nothing like firing up the grill for the evening catch. If you plan to catch an Appalachian State University Mountaineers football game – that's right, the ones who were on the cover of Sports Illustrated – or head over to Blowing Rock for Art in the Park or a visit to Tweetsie Railroad, or to the slopes at Appalachian Ski Mountain, Sugar Mountain or tubing at Hawksnest, this cabin provides a great starting point. It is just a short drive to most area attractions and events. Any time of year, Bridgepoint Cabin in historic Valle Crucis NC is a great home base for your mountain adventures and relaxing retreats.

Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a lovely relaxing stay. We loved the proximity to the river and the ability to hear it from the porch. Having the hot tub and fire pit gave us different areas to relax in. The cabin is on the corner next to the bridge but although it was pretty busy during the day it did not affect our enjoyment of our stay. We got plenty of waves and the evenings were quieter. The cabin had all we could ask for and we enjoyed every minute. Would definitely come back!! ##### Yvette S. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ROBERT C.

It was conveniently located to all the things we like to do in the area - Grandfather Mountain, Tweetsie Railroad, gem mining, Grandfather Vineyard, and more. Next time I'll look for a cottage a little further away from the bridge where folks stop to fish. This cabin's front yard is a popular fishing spot/bridge, so we didn't have front porch / hot tub / camp fire/ chair-sitting privacy and quiet. ##### Jessica S.

We did not have a chance to use the hot tub; though it looked very nice. A little disappointed in the fireplace. It did not seem to work (gas - not wood fired). Pilot light was lit, but could not find any controls to turn it on / adjust the flame. There was a remote, but that did not operate. ##### Stan e.

Coming in from Boone, the road gets a little interesting before you reach the cabin. Paved road, curvy, but yo u def. need 4WD if it gets snowed over. The cabin is exactly how it is pictured. The river backs up to the property and is peaceful to listen to. The hot tub is also an added perk. On the inside, the house is large enough to seat two families--esp with the loft. My two boys, wife and I (and dog) had plenty of space. The evenings were quiet and I also had the best nap I've had in years. I did not bring my rods to fish, but there were a ton of trout hanging out under the bridge. Just very peaceful. We will be back. Thanks to the Blue Ridge staff for being so courteous. Thanks for having us. ##### Jason J. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Molly C. Jan 19, 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Slightly disappointed We enjoyed our time in Valle Crucis despite feeling slightly disappointed in our accommodations. Our cabin was dark, the lighting was very poor throughout and the furnishings were fairly worn. We like to cook all of our meals and we found the kitchen to be under equipped as well as difficult to clean - pans needs replacing, knives dull, oven knobs / buttons hard to adjust and the countertops and table top were very textured and difficult to wipe down. Needed more coffee mugs too as six of us couldn’t enjoy hot cocoa in one sitting. Sleeping was interrupted for all of us with the number of drips, ticks, clicks and other various sounds that came from heaters and outside the cabin. Two of our kids slept in the loft and woke on day two with many bug bites. We did get a beautiful snow and enjoyed walks, hot tubs and the fire pit outside - the river was lovely. Owners may want to pay a visit so they can check on a few of the shortcomings if they haven’t been recently. ##### Molly C. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa H. Sep 7, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute cabin in a great location Overall we had a great stay in this cabin. The inside was clean and cozy and the beds were comfortable. The ladder to the loft is very steep which was fine for our teenagers but I wouldn’t put young kids up there. There were a few maintenance things that didn’t bother us too much (ripped looking carpet between rooms where one floor was replaced and not the other, a few cracked bathroom tiles, no light on the side of the porch). Our biggest complaint was the hot tub smelled a little off and looked a little murky and one of my kids ended up with a rash at the end of the week. It also was very difficult to control the temp. It would get too hot if left on when not in use then take hours to cool enough to use it. Also we paid $25 for a bundle of firewood and 2 fire starters. The wood was there but no fire starters. We actually had to make a late run to Walmart because we couldn’t get the fire to start. Otherwise it is is a great location (about 20-25 min to almost all the of cute little towns in the area. The creek behind the house is pretty. There is also a really nice park less than a mile down the road with nice paved paths for walking and they have weekly concerts on the summer. We would definitely return, hopefully the hot tub would be repaired by then! ##### Melissa H. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jordan S. Nov 11, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Cleanliness #### Overall the property is nice. The property listing is rather misleading, as it mentions a/c and heat. There is no central air conditioning, or heating. I couldn’t imagine going here during the summer. The a/c is wall units in each room. While we were there, 2 were in an error state and the one in the smallest bedroom was running. Unfortunately, we checked in when the weather was in the 70’s. It was very stuffy, I’m not sure if this is due to the location, the lack of air flow or the cabin hasn’t been visited in a while. I had to look up the part number to figure out how to use the units. They ran for about 4 hours after that, then went back into error mode. As we looked around, the first thing that greeted us was a envelope from the cleaning crew. I’m use to those, that is not what bothered me. However this one had writing on it - “Cleaner gets $X from fee”. That is tasteless and confusing. There were several cobwebs around the living room and on the windows. There are small handprints from a child all over the tv. The overall look and feel is clean, however when you look into it, it’s not. The location is nice and exactly as the pictures show. What they don’t show, is the bridge that cars drive on at all hours of the night. I understand cars need to get to places, but with the main bedroom right by the road… it’s rather hard to get a good nights sleep. I would recommend this cabin when it is not too hot, or cold. As there is a quilt on each bed, with no further bedding. A recommendation for future guests, you need to put the a/c instruction manual in the welcome book. The welcome book is very helpful with things to do and places to see. The living room furniture is very comfortable. Overall the cabin as a whole is very nice. There are just a few issues that could be addressed. ##### Jordan S. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth B. Sep 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Our stay! We loved this cabin and our stay with the exception of just a couple of things. First, the decor is gorgeous! Full of bears, wonderful ambiance and it has a comfortable feel!! The master bed is super comfy, everything was clean, fully stocked kitchen - they even have spices!! There’s a small bridge and creek below the cabin which is so pretty. Nice furniture outside to relax and just be. There is a hot tub but we didn’t use it. It was pretty warm for our stay. Now, for the not so great... If you’re big on the clothes you bring, you should know there is no space to hang them. None. The closet in the master is packed full of mattresses, blankets, pillows and who knows what else. There’s a hutch in the master and after seeing the stuffed closet, you think, “oh yay!” No. It’s stuffed full too. I was a little salty about that. There is no closet in the second bedroom so I just didn’t wear my dresses to dinner. The air conditioners are not very efficient. They’re not window units but it’s not central air. There is one in the washing area to cool the entire open floor plan (which we loved, btw) that includes the kitchen, dining and living room. The other is in the master bedroom which did keep it cool with the door closed BUT, the condensation dripped all over the carpet. It made the carpet squishy wet so I was constantly cleaning that area. The air unit in the second bedroom kept it very cool as well. I want to give this a 5 because we had such a wonderful time and really loved the decor, layout and the sweetness of it all but, no closets were disturbing to me. I’m feel like all that junk stored in those closets should be removed but then again, I dress nice and I’m somewhat of an organizing clean freak. The cabin’s bathrooms were small but so cute. We made it work. We would stay here again! Thank you so much to the owners for a great little break from the busyness of our lives! ##### Elizabeth B.

On the conner of bridge so you heard everyone with a load pickup truck, motorcycle going to work or coming back. Not worth the money. ##### Daniel G.

We enjoyed the bedrooms and the two older kids loved the loft area. The home was clean and well maintained, aside from some sub floor issues in the hallway but that didn't affect our stay. The hot tub was nice and we enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the deer and fishermen. The area was nice and quiet. I didn't realize how close by the road and other homes would be, but it was still very quiet and relaxing. Thank you for sharing your home with us! ##### Genevieve R.

We bought our dogs and stayed for a week and skied at Sugar mountain. Good location to skiing both sugar and beech. And close too Boone. River was great. Only a couple minor things: Hot tub cover is very hard to get back on taken completely off, and not as much privacy as we originally thought (road is right behind the house). Otherwise good stay! ##### Jacob H. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy H. Jan 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location! Loved the cabin and location! Right on the river with beautiful views. Close to the ski resorts… we went to Sugar mountain (15 minute drive or so) very close to Boone and the amenities. Our dog loved it and enjoyed the multiple deer running nearby! The hot tub was great! We did stay during a weather event and it was nice to see the snowplows and brining trucks going right by. The roads were fine! Tough to see the debris from the hurricane… happy to bring back some life to the area!!! We did try to fish but no luck… ecosystem changes understood but we gave it a try anyway. I will say the cabin advertised a gas grill… the grill was present but the propane tank was not. The towels were sparse… 4 total for the 3 of us… we used the washer and dryer frequently… plenty of paper products for a 3 day trip. I did bring some but didn’t need them. Also brought laundry detergent which I used but didn’t need the dish detergent. All in all, we had a great time! ##### Kathy H. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Blake H. Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Budget Property The property had some nice features that aligned with the pictures, but a few details impacted the overall experience. For example, there was a trash bag near the entrance that appeared to have been disturbed by an animal, and the house had a noticeable musty scent. The bed linens and comforter were quite thin, which could be improved for added comfort. Additionally, the floor outside the two main-floor bedrooms felt unstable and may need attention. While these aspects might have been less significant at a different price point, they stood out given the premium rate. ##### Blake H. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna H.
