Little Log Cabin: Cozy 1BR w/ Long Range Views

**HURRICANE UPDATE OCT 2024 - PLEASE READ**

I am grateful to report the Little Log Cabin weathered the recent hurricane Helene without damage. The road & surrounding towns of Boone/Blowing Rock are open and fully operational, ready for visitors to help stimulate the local economy as the area recovers. Note there continue to be local road and attraction closures - please check ahead of time. Visitors are welcome but reminded to please be respectful & patient.

********

The Little Log Cabin, aptly named, is a charming cabin in the woods ideal for relaxing, exploring, and enjoying all that the beautiful High Country has to offer.

Small but mighty, this 730 sq ft cabin sits at around ~3500 ft elevation, features picture windows throughout offering beautiful year-round long-range views. I have spent 2021 preparing this little slice of heaven for guests; I hope you find Little Log Cabin as magical as I do!

The cabin is centrally located in the Wilson Creek area between Blowing Rock and Linville - just ~20-25 minutes to each. Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway are both a quick 10 to 15-minute drive, with tons of world-class hiking, fishing, camping, swimming, and skiing close by. Venture into Boone (~30 mins) for a visit to Kidd Brewer Stadium or a stroll down King Street; ride the Alpine Coaster (~25 mins); hike Profile Trail (~25 mins); ski at Sugar Mountain (~30 mins); or check out one (…or three) of the nearby wineries.

Whether you’re visiting for a relaxing getaway or an outdoor mountain adventure, we provide you the basic comforts of home to make travel a little bit easier: hand soap, dishwasher pods, kitchen towels, paper towels, basic oil/salt & pepper, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Just bring your bags and unpack!

LIVING/DINING/KITCHEN
The main space offers an open concept kitchen, dining, and living room with a large sectional couch and plenty of space to relax. Fire up the Roku TV to stream your favorite shows or sporting events (must provide your own login), or lounge on the chaise with a book and a beverage. An additional sleeping (or movie watching) space is available on the full-sized pull-out couch.

The dining table with seating for 4 (extra leaf available) is perfect for a game night, buffet style meal, or remote office with a view.

Start your day watching the sunrise with coffee from the 12-cup drip coffee maker (filters provided) or make a few cups in the French Press.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all the pots, pans, and utensils needed to cook up a large family meal for 4 including a blender, mixer, crock pot and a large, deep sink with sprayer faucet. Utilize the drop-leaf kitchen island for additional prep/service space. The refrigerator/freezer has an automatic ice maker but no filtered water dispenser – the tap water (from a well) is perfectly fine to drink and is some of the best tasting filtered mountain water you can get.

*Note* there is no garbage disposal and the cabin is on a septic system, so please don’t dump food or grease down the drain!

BEDROOM
Sleep off the day of exploring in the King bed with a comfortable, thick duvet (lighter quilt available in the summer months) and blackout curtains. A second HDTV equipped with Roku is in the bedroom. The spacious walk-in closet offers storage for all your luggage, jackets, and outdoor gear.

BATHROOM
The bathroom, which is detached from the bedroom, offers a large walk-in shower and bench seat (no tub) with all the basic amenities you’ll need throughout your stay.

LAUNDRY
Connecting the bedroom and bathroom is a small hallway with full-sized washer and dryer and a few laundry pods to get you started.

WIFI/CELL SERVICE
Cell signal is generally strong inside the cabin thanks to the signal booster, but can be unreliable in the surrounding areas. The home is equipped with Starlink high-speed satellite internet offering speeds of up to 100+ mbps. Remote work or streaming should be no issue, however please note: we are in the mountains after all, and you may experience rare but short intermittent outages from time to time.

OUTDOOR SPACE
Sit on the covered porch and enjoy a mountain thunderstorm, hang out in the bistro area, or venture to the fire pit for some smores.

Other notes: This cabin is accessed by a paved state-maintained road that is plowed in Winter but is very steep. 4WD or AWD is REQUIRED Dec-Feb for Winter. Cell signal is generally strong inside the cabin, but can be unreliable in the surrounding areas.

*NOTE* NO PETS ALLOWED AND ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS.
