120Yr Old Cabin Great for couple/family, 15 min from Boone, center of 200 acres!

Located near a small creek with over 40 acres of land to explore. Trails will take you to a small private creek with native trout. From the front porch, you can see deer, turkey, and other wildlife. This rustic cabin was relocated in 1957 from the original family home place. Cabin's kitchen will meet the needs of weekend visitors with modern conveniences. The private bedroom loft offers a large window that looks over 5 acres of pasture. The living area includes a TV (for DVD's only- no satellite or cable) and assortment of DVD's and games. The main living areas has two sleeper sofas that will sleep four. We intentionally did not put Wi-Fi or Cable in the Cabin so you can truly get away. However cell service is strong so you can still receive text and voice messages.
Please note: the steps to the loft bedroom are steep.... Also, the front steps (3 steps) onto the porch are rock and the last one is higher that the first two. There is a smaller step to the right of the porch you can use to get onto the porch and into the house if needed. This cabin is not handicapped accessible...
WINTER MONTHS...IF WE HAVE A BIG DUMP OF SNOW...YOU WILL NEED 4X4 or AWD to get up the last hill......No Snow....No Problem....But if we get a lot of snow you will need a vehicle that puts traction on all 4 tires....
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

The cabin was so unique. My wife, son, dog, and I stayed here. This will be a trip our family will remember for a very long time. The hosts are very helpful while respecting your privacy. Highly highly highly recommend. The heater in the kitchen also works very well. The space heaters are sufficient but when we were there, it got down to 11 with a feels like of (-19). We just stayed in the pullout beds in the living room with the wood burning stove. The stove works almost too good. It gets very hot and it incinerates all the wood in there. *tip - run to Lowes and pick up one batch of dry wood and kindling sticks. Start the fire with these then use the wood available on property to keep it going. The kitchen is convenient and we were able to cook there (although we only did this once). Town is so close we were able to eat out or take out most days. We took advantage of the nearby tubing parks and skiing. All are a very short drive. I am certain we will book again on any trips to Boone.

The cabin was very cozy and so authentically rustic! Loved it! The weather was cold and there was snow. We saw deer and wild turkeys. We did not explore the property, but definitely offers a lot. We want to return in the spring or summer! Also was decorated so nicely for Christmas!

Exactly what we were looking for. Quiet old cabin in the mountains with peace and quiet. Plenty of deer on the property to sit and watch every day. Just wish we had drove a truck instead of my car as the last part of the driveway right at the house was a little steep and the owner was also cutting down trees and there was debris so it would have been much easier with a truck. But the the cabin was rustic with all the necessary amenities. The steps are steep and the ceilings and doorways are very low so watch your heads! But we had a wonderful weekend! Highly recommend!

Quiet and secluded, yet 10 minutes from downtown Boone. Basic amenities, no internet, but had mostly 5g through t-mobile. I wouldnr recommend a low profile coupe or sedan, the rocky drive near the cabin would probably be a bit of a challenge

Our stay in Ed’s cabin was perfect - exactly what we were looking for. Something rustic, extremely convenient to Boone (10min), feeling of being out of town, and very quiet evenings on the porch. Thanks for sharing your mini treasure with us!

Very cute and cozy cabin

Weekend getaway with family — there were 5 of us and we were very cozy in the cabin with ample space for sleeping and cooking meals. Loved the peaceful location just outside of town. Cabin was very clean — check in was a breeze. Plan to stay here every year for our mountain getaway.

Quiet, peaceful, a respite from the busyness of life. Primitive, historical cabin yet has everything one needs. Short hike to waterfall and creek, pastures, great place for dogs and kids to play and explore.

We absolutely LOVED our stay! Kids and pups had room to roam, felt like we were out in the middle of nowhere while still close to what we needed. We saw deer every morning and even enjoyed a hike to the falls with the best guide ever, Oreo! Already have next year booked!

Stunning!

My wife and I spent a long weekend at the cabin and it was such a peaceful getaway. The hosts were incredibly kind and thoughtful and we can't thank them enough for their generosity! This is truly a magical spot. The show of thousands of fireflies observed from the porch on a summer night is an unforgettable experience. We hope to be back soon!

A beautiful spot with so much history- the photos do not do this amazing property justice!

Our family was honored to stay in this 120 year old cabin on this amazing homestead and be a tiny part of its history. Absolutely great location, lovely short walk to the waterfall, it was so relaxing and stepping back in time to the basics. We loved our time and can't wait to come back!

Amazing family Christmas vacation

We truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the future. Ed you were truly amazing and very accommodating. The cabin all decorated for Christmas made it even more magical for us and our girls. We will always remember this trip and our girls sledding together in the snow.
