About this property

Apple Cove - hot tub, wood burning fireplace, pet friendly

Overlooking a serene pasture and neighboring pond, Apple Cove cabin offers a quiet mountain retreat with modern amenities!

Relax in the Adirondack style chairs on the covered porch, while steaks sizzle on the gas grill on the side deck or cook out on the charcoal grill by the firepit in the front yard. This dog friendly, two bedroom two bath cabin, with additional loft, accommodates six in a spacious, yet cozy interior. The wood burning fireplace will warm you on those cool mountain evenings. And don't forget the hot tub that will soothe what ails you after those mountain hikes. Easy to access, this Valle Crucis location allows convenient year round accommodations.

Short visit with our App State student

We used this cabin to do some "power lounging" for a couple of days. It was a good break for our daughter who is in the dorm at App State. Loved the cabin and the especially the wood burning fire place.

My husband and I spent 4 wonderful nights here. It was very clean, comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed the fireplace while it snowed. This was a much needed get away, and this cabin didn’t disappoint.

Family fall weekend

Maybe the most picturesque place we’ve ever stayed. And we’ve stayed at a lot of mountain rentals! Perfect from start to finish! We hated to leave this beautiful spot. We hope to return again!!

Amazing location

The cabin was amazing, very clean and had everything we needed. The yard is huge, my dog loved playing so much it actually wore him out! Because we were meeting at the cabin befoer check in, I called management to see if we could park a car there. The lady on the phone was so sweet and said its not a problem at all. I will definitely stay at this cabin again!

Beautiful property

We loved our stay in this cabin. It is pet friendly and we were looking for a place we could take our elderly chihuahua. She loved sniffing all the things in the yard! She seemed so calm and relaxed, which isn’t her norm; she is chi after all! It is close to town and lots of different hiking trails, while also feeling private and remote. The yard is just incredible. Has me looking for similar property for purchase. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Experience!

I really can’t say enough positive things about this house. It was so peaceful and truly felt like home away from home. We used the fire pit all three nights we were there and the jacuzzi. My 9 year old son loved exploring the back yard and rolling down the hills. Lol. The house came equipped with plenty of kitchen gadgets but we brought everything we needed. So for people flying in, there were tons of items for use in the kitchen. The trash bins were already stuffed full when we arrived but the management staff responded to me quickly and apologized and let us know we could just place our trash on top when we left. There are so many hiking trails around and my son enjoyed Foggy Mountain Gem Mining. Overall it was truly a memorable vacation in this gorgeous cabin home. Thank you!

Cozy Ski Trip to NC

A friend and I have been itching to go snowboarding and finally pulled the trigger to get a rental and bring the family for a fun week in the mountains. The cabin was a wonderful place to stay and definitely met our expectations in both location and amenities. The management company communicated very well and had everything ready to go when we arrived. I can definitely see the roads being very difficult when the weather is icy and more severe. For us the daytime temperature was just above freezing and road conditions were quite manageable. Overall our stay went very well and met our expectations.

Perfect for a quick getaway, party of 5.

It was a perfect, peaceful getaway for my family. The kids enjoyed running the yard and seeing the deer out in the yard in the morning. Late evening soaks in the hot tub, star gazing, became a daily occurrence. I was pleasantly shocked to see the house has 2 separate bedrooms and a loft with 2 beds! When looking at the listing when I booked, I thought they were counting the loft as a bedroom. Obviously my mistake and my son was happy not to have to sleep on the couch!

Great place and pretty clean

My friends and I had a great time at this cabin and will probably rent here again. The hot tub worked great and the location was convenient to restaurants and Beech Mountain. The cabin is also super clean which is important. The only thing I think could be improved is updated bedding/bed spreads. I bring my own anyway but that's probably the only thing if I HAD to pick something.

Relax and Chill cabin

We loved the cabin everything was nice and well equipped with all need for to cook each night. As of family of 2 adults and 4 children 10 and 12.... the space is good but you hear everything they say and do. There is only TV in main living room and a small TV in loft which the boys loved. If you have small kids this is perfect spot as our kids are getting older I do not want to hear them..lolo. Overall a nice place to sit and chill, the hot tub was fabulous...it rain sat morning so we all got to go out Saturday afternoon. We order pizza from Carolina pizza spot in Boone I think and we loved so please support local
