Summary: Easy check-in. Communion
Tonya C. Jan 7, 2025 04:24:05 AM
Summary: Hot tub had a leak, was told the fireplace worked which was not the case the propane was not even hooked up( which was never resolved)The house is really outdated! The downstairs big bath tub is really gross and out dated. The pots and pans were dirty. Carpets has pet stains all over it. If you are on a budget then go for it. We spent Christmas in this cold cabin. You have been warned.
SAMMY R. Jan 3, 2025 11:22:06 PM
Summary: This cabin is awesome. It has four floors and plenty of room for all family members. It is close to all the attractions. Our family really had a good time at this location.
Kate H. Feb 14, 2024 03:06:35 AM
Summary: We had the best stay and will be booking again next year! The cabin is beautiful and in a great location. We spent time at both Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain, and were happy to find the amenities of Boone also nearby. A perfect mix of mountain tranquility and convenience. The cabin was clean and the host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.
Elise E. Feb 21, 2023 12:03:09 AM
Summary: We loved our stay here. It was two families, with 5 kids total. A great layout/setup for us and just a very comfortable place to be, with the perfect cabin feel! It was an easy drive back and forth to Sugar Mountain every day. And the hot tub on the deck was the best at the end of each adventure!

Summary: Trevor and Ambie were quick to respond to questions we had when we arrived. Beautiful home and perfect size for a family for friends getaway.

Summary: The positives first- owner was prompt with communication and the cabin is in a good location- easy access to banner elk and blowing rock. You can stay in this area and have multiple hiking opportunities very close. Here’s where it falls short- it’s in terrible need of a deep cleaning and basic maintenance. The carpets are gross- lots of stains. I also think the cabin had been restocked for new guests months before we stayed- we walked thru cobwebs in almost every room when we first arrived. There was a layer of dust on everything. My daughter has asthma and I had to wash comforters before she could even use the beds. The whole cabin is lacking overhead lighting and many of the light fixtures were missing bulbs- it was so dark in the kitchen I had to move a bedside lamp to the countertop. We were hoping to grill but we’re unable to find grilling tools and the grill was very dirty. I also noticed a good amount of poison ivy on a large tree right by the cabin. I could continue to list things like this but just know the whole impression is outdated, dark, and dirty. Mill run is a beautiful little neighborhood but this cabin has been neglected. It will accommodate a lot of people but sadly staying in it didn’t feel like a treat. One more thing worth noting- ALL the sheets are polyester- ugh!! If you decide you can ignore the other stuff do yourself a favor and bring cotton sheets so you don’t sweat to death at night.
Jennifer P. Jan 13, 2022 02:37:05 PM
Summary: Our family had a wonderful trip. We were able to go out and enjoy Boone, Blowing Rock, and other areas all within a short distance of the cabin. We also enjoyed our down days relaxing at the cabin!
Brian M. Dec 1, 2021 12:36:47 AM
Summary: We live in N. GA. and meet in NC with friends from VA every year. It's a total of 7 (4 adults and 3 kids) and this was a perfect fit for all of us.
Aaron W. Nov 10, 2021 01:00:37 PM
Summary: Great, cozy cabin in a great location! We slept 7 comfortably and probably could have slept a couple more before being too worried about sleeping arrangements. The place could definitely use some updating and repairs, but it was still very nice. It was just a fairly short (and beautiful) drive to get to Boone, Blowing Rock, or Banner Elk from the cabin. We had a great weekend!
