Beautiful place / so glad it wasn’t snowing though, very steep areas to get there. Overall very nice place. The pictures made it seem a little more roomy in kitchen and dining area. Some appliances and dishes were not cleanest. Hottub worked well and was nice to sit in and enjoy view and sound of waterfall. Couldn’t find the top of waterfall but had fun exploring.

Lovely Cabin!

We stayed at Boulder Falls cabin for five days for a quick ski trip. It was a cozy and well maintained cabin. The owners keep it in great shape! It was also very clean, and we are picky about cleanliness! If you come in winter, 4x4 is a must. I would also have tore chains in case of ice. Road to the cabin can be a bit steep in spots. Also, we don’t realize this when we first arrived, but the main road is a loop. We first made a 3 point turn (more like 8 point turn lol) in a very narrow driveway/road. Fortunately we spoke to a resident neighbor and he told us the road loops around, so no need to turn the truck around. Sugar Mountain is a quick 10min drive. The cabin is in a great location. It’s close to Sugar Mountain, Boone, and Blowing Rock. There are also several wineries and antique stores close by. We will definitely stay again!

MLK Weekend

Good location and very convenient. Awesome location beside waterfall. Very nice cabin with great amenities. Only issue we had was cleanliness, animal hair on comforter, old food on utensils and cups and crus/mold on kureig. Would definitely stay here again the location and waterfall cant be beat. Hot rub next to waterfall is also great.

Highly recommend this cabin

The entire stay was perfect. The home is as pictured and described. It’s perfect for family or friends staying together. It’s dog friendly (a huge plus for us) yet you wouldn’t know dogs have stayed there. It’s very clean, even our dogs didn’t sense other animals presence. The kitchen is stocked well, we cooked every night with no complaints on missing utensils etc., a few basic spice essentials are also there. Fireplaces are wonderful, all living quarters were perfect! The outdoor space is perfection…who doesn’t love a personal waterfall! Heed the warnings on what to drive!! Especially in winter! The road to get to the cabin is no joke!! You will love your stay here!

Even better than we expected

The home was great! We had everything we needed. It was clean and nicely decorated. The waterfall was amazing. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and just listening to the water. We also enjoyed the hot tub! We will be back.
