About this property

Peaceful Cabin Nestled On A Ridge In The Blue Ridge Mountains At Cattail Creek

The area has been through a lot but thankfully the Rock Ridge family cabin made it through! We are excited to welcome back our returning and new guests. Come enjoy all the mountains have to offer.
This 3 bedroom 2 bath cabin is just what the family needs to get away and enjoy all the Blue Ridge Mountains have to offer. Kitchen has been renovated and we also recently added smart TV devices so you can stream your favorite shows while relaxing on our over-sized couch surrounded by the trees and roaring creek outside. Hike the mountain trails, sit on the porch over Cattail Creek or take a drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway. The porch sits just an a ridge over an active mountain creek. This place is a hikers paradise with many trails in the area and even the mountain roads right outside the door that make for a great walk. Hiking not your thing? Powerful wifi is streaming so you can stay connected to the outside world if you need to. Also some neat things to see in the communities surrounding the cabin. Inside, the 2019 Bathroom Renovations included upgraded sinks, toilets and a washer and dryer! The three bedrooms have a queen bed in one room, a full sized log bed in another room and two log bunk beds (full and twin) in another room. One of the living rooms has a pull out sofa as well. There are two full bathrooms. One with a shower and another with a tub. There is a great room with a huge sectional couch, tv, full kitchen and table. There is a wood burning fireplace in the other living room. The cabin also has a heater in the main section that keeps you very comfortable. We also have air conditioning in the two main living areas along with ceiling fans in the bedrooms. The mountain's are calling, we look forward to having you!

Great cabin for spending quality time with loved ones. Layout is perfect for it. Just what my family needed to recharge our batteries. The host provides a lot of helpful information beforehand, and I particularly enjoyed the various suggestions or tips posted throughout the cabin. Rather thoughtful.We'll definitely be back one day.

Great location and nice cabin, but unfortunately it was not clean. We had to wipe everything down. There were so many cobwebs and dust bunnies and general uncleanliness that we felt very uncomfortable.

Great place for a family get together

We had a fun and relaxing time at the cabin while escaping the awful heat back home. Great place for all ages. A hike to MtMitchell, jumping rocks in the creek, s’mores over the fire, lots of games, reading on the back porch rockers, and sketching the view of the creek.

Needed retreat

This stay was wonderful. It was the perfect place for me and my senior, best friend, dog. We have a wonderful, restful, quiet, peaceful time. Listening and watching to the creek ramble over the rocks below, while having coffee and reading on the deck was fabulous! We hope to come back again soon.

Great Mountain Retreat

Spent birthday with family and twin sister, including 88 year old mother. Plenty of room to spread out. Quiet, peaceful surroundings. Spent much of the time sitting on the back porch which overlooked a small waterfall. A little piece of heaven.

Great cabin in the mountains with a small waterfall right below the covered deck. Large living room and kitchen (which had just been remodeled). This was our 2nd time here and we probably come back next year.

Weekend Getaway

Two years ago we first visited and the updates add to the charm of the cabin. It has everything we need for our diverse group of 4 adults, 3 young kids, and 2 dogs. The location is breathtaking and provides multiple adventures in the creek along the waterfall or walking on the local roads. The location has a few quirks that come with age and the reality of cleaning a cabin in the woods. We loved the place because it provides so many different kinds of entertainment for our family.

Beautiful views

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at cattail creek. The view from the back porch was awe inspiring. The neighbors were friendly. We walked the road and some trails up near the cabin. Most of our stay we just spent up on the mountain because there was no reason to leave. The road was a bit stressful for me because I'm not used to narrow mountain roads BUT I made it up and down and would go again. Pierre was easy to contact and answered our questions quickly. Definitely an amazing place to stay and enjoy the quiet rhythm of the mountains.

Very relaxing

Enjoyed the water noise and the close proximity . Kitchen needs more light. Only had 2 washcloths, for our stay we could have used 2 per day. There is a hole in the back of the house that needs to be looked at, possible critters. But overall, it was a great place to unwind, really liked the area.

Splendid stay in Cattail Creek

We had a great stay at the cabin in Cattail Creek. It was well stocked with kitchenware, linens, board games, outdoor chairs for the firepit and some wood. There’s plenty of room to gather together or find a spot to be alone. Great back porch with view of the creek. Although a few days were cooler than usual, we were warm and cozy. The kids loved being so close to the creek for rock- hopping. I’d recommend tying a balloon at the top of the driveway since other family or friends could miss it. Overall, many good memories were made.

Lovely mountain getaway

Perfect summer escape from the heat in a lovely cabin by the creek! We love the cattail creek community for its remoteness, perfect mountain vacation environment, closeness to Burnsville, difficult hikes, and coolness in the shade of Mt Mitchell. This cabin had easy access to Cattail Creek, thoughtful appointments, comfortable beds, a secluded yard - was perfect, and we will definitely be back. It was also a great spot for a well behaved dog who doesn’t need a fenced in yard. Some notes for future guests - the neighborhood is on mountain roads…some of the rentals we have had here recommend 4 wheel drive, but this cabin was easy to access in the mini van. They do not recommend drinking the water in this rental, so make sure and bring jugs of water for your use. Thanks for sharing such a special place. Looking forward to returning!

Beautiful as always

This is my sixth time staying at Rock Ridge. It remains one of my favorite places on earth. The hiking around the cabin can't be beat (check out the 9-mile out-and-back hike up to Deep Gap, as well as the short hike over to Twin Falls, all right off Deep Gap Road), and the cabin itself makes for a lovely, restful retreat once you're done hiking/exploring for the day. The water isn't safe for drinking, but safe for bathing/teeth brushing for those with normal immune systems. I am immunocompromised and brush with bottled water and have not had any issues. The view from the back porch is one of the best in the community. Pierre is a lovely host and is always available through the app for any questions or concerns. They've made some recent improvements to the cabin as well, making it an even better place to stay! You'll love your time here!
