This lovely, spacious, three level, 5 bedroom home sits on a lush 3+ acre property close to Mast General Store in Valle Crucis. Extremely convenient access to Boone, Blowing Rock, Tweetsie Railroad, Banner Elk, and Beech Mountain. No need for four-wheel drive, even in the winter.

The large outdoor terraces feature a massive outdoor fireplace and a 90-jet hot tub. All five bedrooms have Smart TV's (large, new ones!). Upstairs, the spacious master suite has a king size four-poster bed, gas-log fireplace, a garden tub, and shower. A plush queen bedroom is also upstairs. Downstairs, two more bedrooms feature King Beds, and a third bedroom has a queen bed plus a solid bunk bed. **ALL beds, including bunk beds, have thick, new, high-quality mattresses. You'll have great sleep. The roomy kitchen has two refrigerators and seating for 14. There are four distinct living areas, including a comfortable upstairs living room, a large downstairs den with a gas log fireplace, a bright, hexagonal Florida room with pretty views, and a well-furnished, 500 sq ft play room featuring a pool table. Look at our photos!!

This house is so much better than a cramped log cabin on a steep hill. There is plenty of space for multiple vehicles, plenty of room for adults and kids to play inside or out, surrounded by beautiful trees, mountain scenery, and frequent visits by deer that live in the area.

Great mountain stay
We had a team of men that served with a local ministry doing hurricane relief and use this VRBO For our sleeping accommodations. It was clean, comfortable, and well stocked for our team. A few very minor things to be expected with such a large property but we were all grateful for such large accomodations. We enjoyed grilling and the fire pit at the end of the evenings. Thank you!

Great house!
Our stay was planned for 3 weeks after Helene, so things were up in the air for a short time. Stephen was great, however, and he reached out with information on the condition of the house, roads, etc. We didn't want to travel if it would be more of a burden on the community, but we also wanted to help in any way we could - even if it just meant supporting the local businesses. This house is wonderful, especially for an all-adult crew. We each had our own bedrooms with big beds that were extremely comfortable. The dumb waiter came in handy when we wanted to roast hot dogs in the outdoor fireplace - we were able to send all of the food down to the eating nook on the lower level. We would definitely stay here again.

Nothing bad to say!
We absolutely loved our stay! Wish we could have stayed longer. The house had plenty of space for our group of 12. We never felt on top of each other and we never ran out of hot water! The home was clean and pictures and description were great! Check in was so simple and we never ran into any issues! can’t recommend this place enough. Such a beautiful home and nice spacious layout for a group!

Winter wonder land of a weekend
We were blessed to enjoy the snow. The driveway was prefect for playing. The home was prect for the 4 families. We all arrive safely during the snow storm. We were thrilled to to get stuck at the top of a mountain. We would love to stay here again. Beautiful home.

Amazing house!
We would absolutely recommend this house to anyone! We had a family vacation with 13 guests. There was plenty of space for everyone. Sitting in the hot tub with the fire going was a great experience. The outdoor area was great and we all loved seeing deer go through the yard each evening. The kids enjoyed playing pool and exploring the property. The house was very clean and every creature comfort was thought of. The beds felt like sleeping on a cloud and even the towels smelled so good. The owners were responsive, easy to get in touch with and very helpful. We were not wanting for anything in this house. Must go to the General Mast store. This house is very close to both Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain. We went skiing, tubing, panning for gold and on the Alpine Coaster.

Great family getaway
Great place for a family getaway. We had 13 people and there was plenty of room. Well stocked kitchen, great internet service, hosts were easy to communicate with. Loved that it’s not on the side of a mountain and plenty of room for kids to play outside and inside. Quiet area easy access to snow tubing and shopping. Not far from town. Would definitely go back and stay again!!
