Guest access:
Guests will have access to the entire home and property, except owner’s closet in the upstairs bedroom.

Other things to note:
Security cameras on property- Cameras monitor the parking area, front porch, rear porch and one facing Grandfather Mountain- exterior only and not in use during rentals

Pets- Up to two well behaved dogs are welcome. Dogs are not allowed on the furniture. Maximum 75 lbs each. Any damage (other than normal wear and tear) caused by a pet will fall under the standard “damaged item” category as discussed below. We reserve the right to refuse certain sizes or breeds.

Whether you are working remotely, streaming your favorite tv shows or gaming, we are happy to provide fiber-optic internet for your stay.

Where you’ll be:
The cabin is located conveniently between Boone and Banner Elk in the Foscoe/ Seven Devils Community. Some of the nearby towns include Valle Crucis, Sugar Mountain, Beech Mountain, Blowing Rock and Linville.

The cabin’s central location is just minutes from dining, wine tasting, breweries, shopping, hiking, cold weather activities and warm weather activities. There are a number of hiking trails on and off the Blue Ridge Parkway to explore. Known as “America’s Favorite Drive,” this scenic route offers countless overlooks, hiking spots and cascading waterfalls. During the winter months, enjoy skiing or snowboarding at nearby Sugar Mountain Resort, Beech Mountain or Appalachian Ski Mtn. Go snow tubing with the family at Hawksnest, only 12 minutes away. During warmer weather, enjoy river tubing, putt putt, golf, fly fishing, white water rafting, zip-lining or mountain biking. Grandfather Mountain and Linville Caverns & Falls are just a few miles away. Whether you're seeking a serene retreat or an outdoor adventure, APPsolute Heaven is the perfect base for your mountain getaway.

Getting around:
Like most mountain homes, our driveway is steep, be cautious and all will be fine. The driveway is a sharp turn to the right and has a steep incline. Two vehicles fit at the top of the drive with an additional parking spot halfway up the drive.

Winter Road Conditions- Weather conditions in the mountains can be unpredictable. Sometimes rain, fog, snow, sleet, or ice create unexpected and hazardous driving conditions - especially during the colder months of November - April. Since road conditions may become hazardous during your stay, an All-wheel drive, 4-wheel drive vehicle and/or chains and the ability to drive on snow and ice are strongly recommended to get to and from the property and surrounding areas. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ARRIVE FULLY PREPARED and there will be NO refunds, allowances, or date changes resulting from your negligence in this matter.
The cabin’s driveway will be salted/ cleared at Owner’s discretion. Even when the roads have been cleared, guests with 2-wheel drive vehicles often have trouble with the steep hills.

***Highly recommend All-Wheel or 4-Wheel Drive vehicles during winter months

Perfect cabin!
We had an amazing time at this lovely cabin. Our kids loved the hot tub and roasting marshmallows. The surrounding nature was very therapeutic. Lots of great hikes nearby. We also really enjoyed being so close to grandfather vineyard. The house was extremely clean and equipped with everything we needed. We will come back!

Great House & Location
We just had an amazing stay at APPsolute Heaven, and I can't recommend it enough! The location was spot on – super close to Boone, Grandfather Mountain, and Sugar Mountain, which made exploring the area so easy. The place was just the right size for our family. We loved the hot tub and the fire pit out back – perfect for relaxing evenings. Plus, the large front porch with a table and rocking chairs was a great spot for our morning coffee. Everything was incredibly clean and well-maintained, and the neighborhood was quiet and relaxing. One of the best surprises was the s'mores kit they left for us as a welcome gift. Very nice touch! The owners were fantastic, too. We had some car trouble during our stay, and they were so helpful and accommodating, which made a big difference. If you're looking for a great place to stay in the Banner Elk area, I highly recommend this place. 5 Stars!

Fantastic stay!
My wife, kids, and I had the best time! Everything was perfect. Our host was so helpful, quick to respond and very accommodating. The cabin was very clean and in a wonderful central location. The kids has a blast roasting marshmallows, and the hot tub was clean and worked perfectly! The kids were already asking when we were coming back as we left.

Amazing Stay and Cabin
We had the absolute best time at our stay in this cabin. We were welcomed with all the needs for S'mores for the kids, while it did snow and wind was high, we weren't able to enjoy outside but the kitchen was well equipment so we were able to make them inside with the oven. The kids absolutely love the loft area with the double bunks. Both the older girls(4,11) were able to get a top bunk so that was awesome! All the wood in the cabin was absolutely perfect for the feel we were wanting in the mountains. Add in the little snow we got and it was perfect. The front porch and hot tub was perfect with a great view of Grandfather mountain. We will absolutely be back soon!!!

Great cabin with fantastic hospitality
We had a wonderful time and the cabin is absolutely beautiful. Very nice layout with the interior and exterior. We thoroughly enjoyed the grill, nice landscape with outdoor fireplace, hot tub with views, and the interior was very comfortable along with clean. They have a nice book made about the cabin and things to do within the adjacent area. Only negative thing we experienced was having to haul our trash off. The closest trash sites were closed on Sunday and the one in Boone was open 1-5 but checkout is 11. We fortunately had a truck bed for the trash but our luggage was back there too. Overall I would highly recommend this property and would most definitely stay again!!!
