The engineering marvel that is Linn Cove Viaduct is also along this route. In winter, skiing is available at Appalachian Ski Mountain located between Boone and Blowing Rock; and also at Beech Mountain, or at Sugar Mountain in Banner Elk. In summer, there are public beaches at Lake James to the south, only a 15-minute drive from Marion.

Bathrooms and showers are fully stocked with towels, washcloths, tissue paper, kleenex, shampoo, body wash, etc. The deck is huge. The fire pits are wonderful. The views are breath taking.The 8 person Bullfrog hot tub is relaxing with a waterfall, lights, and music. Awesome pool table. There are games for kids, WiFi, Samsung TV with fire stick. Log in with your credentials to watch Disney+, Netflix, Hulu etc. The lazy boy recliner will spoil you. The bear crossing sign is LEGIT! I saw black bears roaming around eating berries on at least 4 different occasions [during my one week stay]. Fill the hummingbird feeder with sugar water and watch the show!! This place is fantastic. Rakib quickly addresses any concerns. We'll be back!"

Family Thanksgiving
We were very pleased with our stay and feel that the cabin was a big part of our excellent vacation. The home is at the highest point of the neighborhood, which did take longer to get to when we left out to explore everyday, but it was very private and we felt like we had a large part of the mountain to ourselves. The slow internet caused a little culture shock at first but turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Between the pool table, fire pit, and (thankfully modern) boardgames we had an awesome family experience. The outdoor hottub was unfortunately not working during our stay. We hope it is up and running again shortly because we are already considering our next trip!

This home was worth every penny, super clean, well stocked and amazing views. The home is stunning, and very comfortable and we will definitely be back. There are many attractions within a short drive but you won’t want to leave the beauty and comfort of this home.

Beautiful house, stunning views, perfect family getaway. This is a rare gem of a home!
This is a gorgeous house with incredible views. It was a perfect getaway for our family of six, including four adult children. We spent our vacation cooking family meals in the modern, fully equipped kitchen, playing games around the table, lounging around on the many couches and chairs in the living room, playing games of pool in the first floor game room, or just sitting on the deck, all while watching the constantly changing weather, including some spectacular sunrises and sunsets. When we weren't relaxing in the gracious and comfortable house, we were exploring the waterfall and wading pools just inside the neighborhood entrance, hiking the nearby Linville gorge and enjoying the truly breathtaking views of the Linville Falls, or visiting the Linville Caverns -- all of which were just a few minutes away by car. The owners are friendly and incredibly responsive. We would definitely rent this property again, and highly recommend it to anyone.

Our family had an amazing time at this well stocked cabin. Awesome views greet you as you look out the many windows or as you relax on the wrap porches.
