About this property

Log Cabin - Best 3 Bdrm Value - Close to Boone & ASU - Free Night for every 3

Our log cabin is named 'Where the Greene Grass Grows'. If you want to get away to a cute, beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath log cabin on 3+ acres of absolutely gorgeous land, this is your next vacation spot! A small creek runs through the property and runs under Bethel road into the Watauga River. At the river you can go fishing, tubing or just play in the river and cool off.

There is a great wood burning stove in the living room area (DO NOT USE BASEMENT STOVE). On the main floor there is a full bedroom and a full bath, along with a washer & dryer room. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs. The dining room and living room will add to the cozy atmosphere. Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and another with a twin bed, plus a pull out twin trundle. There is another bathroom upstairs "tub only" between the 2 bedrooms. Relax on the front porch or back deck on the rockers or swings. The back porch has a grill and the full basement can be used for game night.

This cabin was built in 1985. It is only a few miles to Watauga Lake, Beech Mountain skiing and you can drive just a few minutes further to reach Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Mountain, Tubing at Hawksnest & Appalachian Ski Mountain. Boone is a great college town for Appalachian State University, plus has shopping, restaurants, movies. Valle Crucis is only about 5 miles away and is home to the Mast General Store and the famous Candy Barrel. Blowing Rock is also close by which has incredible unique shops and is home to Tweetsie Railroad. This cabin has very easy access points to the Blue Ridge Parkway and is only 30 miles away for the Nascar Races in Bristol, TN. The elevation in this area is around 3400' and provides some of the best views in the world, especially when the leaves are changing during peak season.

If you rent 'Where the Greene Grass Grows' you will have memories you will cherish forever!

Cute cozy cabin
Super cute and cozy, perfect location, loved the property. It’s seems secluded but still close enough to everything you need. I seen other reviews about the neighbors dogs. The only time I heard the neighbors dogs was when I took my dog outside. But even then it was not bad at all and couldn’t hear anything inside. Overall the place was super cute and loved staying there! The only down fall for me was the beds. Probably the most uncomfortable beds I’ve slept in. We were worried about the driveway and snow but just parked our one vehicle at the top of the drive and walked to the front door no problem!

Cozy Cabin
We stayed here for Thanksgiving 2024 as we have family close by. This home is exactly as listed. It was very cozy and comfortable for our family of 4. We kept the wood fire burning as it was quite cold outside. Bonus is there is a guy who sells wood just down the hill. My boys enjoyed the swing outside and exploring the woods in the back. I prepared many Thanksgiving dishes in the kitchen and found the kitchen had everything I needed. The home also has extra pillows, towels and blankets. We were very happy with our stay. Would stay again.

Vacation in Sugar Grove
Cabin was clean. We stayed for 3 nights and did not hear any dogs barking at anytime during our stay. Stairs outside around back are slippery. If you want to get to the bottom of yard use the grassy hill. Hosts were great and answered all my questions about the listing.

Nice house
The house was nice to stay in. We didn't spend much time in it because the location is so close to places to visit like blowing rock and grandfather mountain and tweetsie railroad. The owners were easy to get in touch with before and after check in. You will definitely enjoy the privacy and wildlife staying here.

This little cabin was perfect for us. We have family that is right up the road, so being so close was amazing. It’s a great cabin. No Wi-Fi, but we weren’t there to be on our phones. Easy communication and easy to get to and into. Will Definitely book again.

Quintessential mountain cabin!
This cabin is perfect! The location is far enough to be away from too much but close enough to the slopes, restaurants, etc. We loved that we were able to bring our pupper, she had a blast running up and down the mountain hills & she even got to see a deer! The upstairs tub was amazing to soak in after a day of skiing. The porch swings & rocking chairs are perfect to sit & listen to the creek with a good book! Great house, would absolutely recommend!

Beautiful cabin everything i wanted in a cabin rental for my family and so much more
Beautiful, secluded, and perfect spot for a family getaway. Me my wife and kids loved everything about this cabin my kids liked playing in the back yard sight seeing in the backyard. Plenty of space well equipped with all kinds of supplies for kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms. The wood stove was just the icing on the cake the second night of our stay we used it and it kept the cabin extremely warm and perfect for the setting of the cabin. I would recommend this cabin to anyone if your thinking about booking it don't hesitate just book it it's well worth the stay.

sugar grove fall Boone
Comfortable and roomy digs reasonable distance from Blue Ridge. No views of mountain vistas from the deck, but situated in a lovely wooded area surrounded by trees (for us) in glorious fall foliage. As noted by other reviewers, at night we could hear neighbor's dog barking, but it was not like it was so close and/or loud that it set our dogs off or kept us awake. With two baths and three bedrooms, this place can't be beat for a group who want to split costs and keep expenses down. Not the poshest VRBO I've stayed at, but more than adequate and an outstanding value. I would recommend to friends and I would stay at again.

Great Family getaway!!
The cabin is actually what you would think about in the Mountains of NC. It is decorated very nicely with country antiques and very cozy. The drive time to local attractions and sites is not bad at all and gives you a chance to enjoy the local’s atmosphere. If you hunting for a Christmas tree farm during your stay there are plenty around in the area. The Cheese Factory in West Jefferson is about 45 minutes away and is a most to go see. They have some great antique stores in the area. Boone and Blowing Rock are both just a short drive with numerous shops and Antique stores to keep you busy. If you are into skiing,mountain biking, or fishing you will not be disappointed. Great place hope to visit again soon.

Perfect Cabin
We spent 2 nights in this cabin and it was the perfect home base. My husband and I and our two sons (ages 10 an 9) had everything we needed. There was plenty of room and the boys enjoyed roaming the outdoors. The inside is so pretty and I love all of the wood. We enjoyed game nights around the dining table and the kitchen had all we needed to make meals. The cabin was conveniently located - we were close to everything. We spent a day at Beech Mountain, spent time in Boone and Valle Crucis.

Cute Cabin in the Woods
This cabin was a great find! It was secluded, well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay. Not having to bring linens was a big plus. Boone and App State are about a 15 min drive, great maintained hiking trails are close by, although, our best hike was one that was off the beaten path, we found an amazing waterfall in the middle of the nowhere. It was perfect. We thought about going to Grandfather Mountain but the traffic getting in was terrible, the drive there was amazing with beautiful views and plenty of places to stop and check out the scenery. This cabin was too cute, we will stay here again next time we head back to the area.

About the host

Hosted by Kristi & Gary Greene

Host profile image
This cabin is owned by 'The Greenes'. We grew up in North Carolina and attended college at Appalachian. We know and love this area and are happy to have the chance to share it with you. We have a 22 year old daughter who loves to bring her friends and have fun in the mountains at 'Where the Greene Grass Grows'

Why they chose this property

We love the mountains! It is so nice in the heat of the summer, because it is usually very cool. In the winter it is fun to visit and go skiing with friends. The river is so natural and does not come with the sand that ends up all over everything when vacationing at the beach. The views are great. The shopping is awesome and you are always family in the NC mountains.

What makes this property unique

Great to read a book and listen to the creek. Nice to sit by the river or to go fishing. Perfect for hiking in the summer or skiing in the winter. Wake up to deer in our yard!
