Whether your dream is winter (skiing, ice skating, snowboarding), summer (cooler temperatures, golf, hiking, tennis), or autumn (Blue Ridge Parkway, foliage, football and Woolly Worm festivals), it is hard to create a more idyllic oasis than the High Country of Banner Elk / Boone / Blowing Rock. The label "log cabin" is a bit of a misnomer here as this retreat has been upgraded in so many ways. Most recently, a Pioneer wood-burning fireplace and new kitchen appliances in 2023 and a new deck extension overlooking the yard and pond, carpet and roof in 2024. The peacefulness here is hard to capture in writing. While only three or four minutes to really excellent shops, services and dining, there is almost zero road noise. It is a rare day that you will *not* see deer and wild turkey. The home is at its most sublime with six people in three proper bedrooms but in fact it can sleep 17 when needed -- a bunk room on the lower level sleeps 8, plus a pair of twins in the loft, and one more twin nook in the upper guest room. While the current owners have not rented the home for years, "back in the day" the home brought powerful rental income, thanks in part to its sleeping capacity, its location, and its three different peak seasons for vacation rentals. The home comes completely furnished and equipped with just a very short list of excluded personal items. Heated and cooled on all three levels, porches front and back, first-floor primary bedroom with en suite bathroom, and a fenced backyard pen to keep the dog nice and safe.
