Lovely Waterfall & Creekside Mountain Log Cabin

A private waterfall within footsteps! This private and secluded log cabin is a re-energizing and refreshing getaway connected to the local Reddies river. Nested within unspoiled nature surroundings, our cabin sits within a gated community that has many breath-taking mountain views, waterfalls, gushing rivers, hiking trails, and wildlife.

Enjoy this beautiful riverfront cabin located only minutes away from the Blue Ridge Parkway and many other amazing recreations. Housed only a few feet away from the river, vacationers can enjoy gorgeous waterfall scenery and listen to the energetic rhythm of running water directly from the cabin.

The river is one of the best-known Rainbow Trout fishing spots in Millers Creek. This romantic and hidden-away Cabin is fully furnished (linens and towels are provided). It includes three bedrooms, one and a half bath, a living room, a kitchen, two outdoor scenic decks, and everything you need from home.

Come stay at The Blue River Cabin for your next best vacation get-away ever!

Winter Warning:
The North Carolina mountains are prone to snow and icy conditions during the winter months. The cabin is located on a gravel road. A 4-wheel drive vehicle will be required if there is snow during your stay. We have driven from the cabin in 6 inches of snow in a 4 wheel drive truck with no issues.

Other things to note:
This cabin has multiple exterior security cameras on premise.

Secluded escape
We had a blast. Off the beaten path is an understatement. The driveway from the main road is 1.4 miles of winding roads and plenty of signage to point to the right cabin at the end of the drive. A 4 wheel drive vehicle would be recommended! The gated entry both at the road and the cabin itself provided increased security. Great WiFi, no cell service.(Verizon). River views are breathtaking! Hands on experience with kids, not a sit and watch. Life jackets for kids are a must if they cannot swim. Some areas are deep. Overall, great experience. Clean and well maintained. We’re definitely going back!

This place is beautiful, quiet and relaxing. The creek is next to the cabin, it’s amazing. The cabin is great, perfect for a small family. It’s not really clean but there are a lot of cleaning supplies and tools to clean it up. We will definitely go back.

WE love your set up, however several are prettified of spiders in house, mice droppings and bug on bedspreads. The creek was awesome and the fire pit, however the multitude of insects/bugs was somewhat overwhelming. I think you are good hosts, however the cleaning is subpar for new guests and first time impression. The mice droppings were in kitchen drawers, which made a difficult comfort zone for eating. Thank you for the stay, however we did not have a great first impression. Sincerely, V Scott Lamm victorslamm@gmail.com

Mountain getaway
Overall the cabin was good. The location couldn't have been better for us. Really felt tucked away and the sound of the river and small waterfall was wonderful. Lots of time spent on deck reading and listening to the water. Did catch a couple trout which we ate for dinner final night. And no cell service was actually a real blessing. Just make sure to screen shot the check in procedures and you wont have a problem. Again overall a great experience.

Beautiful and peaceful retreat.
I really enjoyed my stay here. It's in a beautiful area and the cabin is well equipped, including an adequate internet connection. I hadn't planned on working during my time there, but had a work emergency and was able to video conference without issue. The stream nearby has some lovely pools and I caught several nice sized brown and brook trout out of it. This is in no way a reflection on the property, but something to note if fishing is a primary reason for your visit. I am from out of state and was not aware of the significant trough fishing regulations in NC. I was not able to fish in several off-property areas I had planned to due to the time of year. If fishing is a primary reason drawing you to the area, be sure to check the regulations before booking. I would have booked at a different time had I known.

Disappointed
The location and the setting are among the top cabins I have stayed in. The stream running to along the cabin was amazing. However, the cabin was very disappointing. When we arrived, the cabin was very dirty. Floors were not swept, carpet was very dirty, and the bed covers had stains all over them. Someone had pooped and put the poopy toilet paper in the trash can instead of flushing in the toilet. The cabin was very dingy and not well maintained. I have traveled all over and stay out of town five days a week and this reminded me of a cheap hotel. I also own a construction company so I'm used to being around dirt but I'm not going to sleep in someone else's dirt. We actually left a day early cause we were so disappointed

Long steep gravel driveway from where the address is/shows on GPS
The entrance of the property is shared with multiple other owners with a chain locked gate. You have to unlock a keypad to retrieve a key to lock & re-lock the gate every single time and you cannot take the key with you. 2 mile loose gravel driveway. Lots of ups and down and windy one lane driving. Takes about 10-15 minutes from where the address/gps drops you off to get to the actual cabin. So if you are planning on traveling to Boone or West Jefferson and you think it will only be 35-40 minutes. Add another 15! Cabin is NOT kid friendly. Tons of hazards. Dishes were all dirty or should I say poorly cleaned. Seriously, almost every dish. We washed anything before we used it. Spiral metal staircase right when you walk in the front door & in middle of living room, for upstairs loft rooms which are NOT enclosed. Could hear every/any sound in the house, floors not sealed off. NO PRIVACY) BOTH showers extremely small as well as the bathroom space, zero space to actually get ready. The space where the sink is awful. Maybe 2 feet wide. On top of all of that, the upstairs shower wouldn’t get hot and when the owner called (the house btw not us directly) he wasn’t local to come fix or didn’t want to have someone come out to fix. Instead, asked us if we could attempt to repair ourselves. IF you are looking for a couples retreat and do not want to leave the cabin the entire time, this place would suffice.

Cute getaway
The house was nice, many cooking supplies available, soft beds, wifi works IN THE HOUSE. Do not expect to pull up the codes at the end of the driveway. You will need to turn around the way you came to get signal. I didn’t see cleaning notes or rules “everywhere” There are a few but nothing crazy. The shower is definitely small. Like don’t plan on shaving your legs unless you are young and vey flexible or stick your leg out of the shower stall. Im 5ft 5 and could put my back on one wall and touch the other. The very cool potty helps make up for it with a bidet, heated seat and tushy drier. Most hi tech toilet I’ve ever seen. The water fall was great and if you are adventurous (and athletic) you can buy some tubes off Amazon for river tubing and hang out there all day. To the right of the waterfall is a great spot to swim, but wear watershoes as you never know whats floated down. There’s a big boulder you can slide down on the tube but you have to walk up the mossy rocks on the house side, because climbing up the waterfalls almost impossible unless you attach your tow rope to the tree across the stream. If you plan in jumping in, swim the area first so you don't get hurt. Some spots are over your head and some are a few feet. The current just pulls you in a circle unless you don’t pay attention and go down stream for a ride. The drive way is 1 mile and if you’re there in winter snow will need 4WD. Not much sun gets in house. Looks like 5am when 10am.

Very Disappointed, listing inaccurate
This was 2nd home we pre-booked on a needed 1 week break from my business here in NC and before my wife's spinal surgery began. I have rented many homes throughout NC mountain areas and even beach homes over the years, this one sadly, worst for what we expected and paid for. After leaving 1st property which was more remote and amazing (not VRBO home), we arrived at this property to realize something not quite right. There were no working phones at all. There was no TV satellite disk for direct TV to work, so all we had was netflix internet thing. No radios worked or were broken and old. Bathroom needs proper upgrade as only 1 small shower stall, and lots cobwebs in ceiling and lots of mice droppings in kitchen and living room and utensils drawer which we had to clean before we could move in (mouse even ran across counter). Using my son's girlfriend's I-Phone we were able to use internet to call out only. But after 1st day, around 930pm that night, the sewer pump system they have broke down. Seems it's happened before by notes left. I called number of their maintenance guy, and he arrived after 1030pm that night, banged on pipes under home, and said he had to find a professional plumber the next day. Until then, he told us to use the woods as a bathroom; None of the drains could be used. My wife and son's girlfriend are not going to use woods as a bathroom! We then packed everything up, angry and left early to drive all the way back home ruining my vacation and now I am trying to get owner/VRBO to refund our monies. Understand, this is located off the Old NC 16 "moonshiners route" and what you don't see in the pictures of waterfalls, is you face that route, and though traffic is very little, you will see locals driving that each day. Property may be 50 acres, but most inaccessible/unusable and very steep with rock except where cabin sits next to Reggies River. Only immediate area behind cabin can even be fished. Maintenance guy lives about 20 miles away, but evident that work/repairs done within home in past are not done by a experienced knowledgeable professional at all, and many elements are not up to Code electrically or mechanically. I am a licensed NC professional contractor myself and I was upset finding this out. Owner lives in FL, and works at Lockheed Martin, and needs to invest $$$ to properly and safely upgrade and maintain this or else will not have respectable renters nor willing to pay rates they charge.

Pretty but Renter beware! This place comes with literally a laundry list of do’s and don’ts!
Property needs to be managed better! There are some very nice things about the property that are completely overshadowed by the bad. Smelled of moth balls (or something) upon entry and throughout! You must pay cleaning fee that seems to be nonexistent. Poor communication. We received three emails from the property each one adding more cleaning duties upon checkout! When I attempted to contact the PM no one responded back to me. When I see dust on appliances, sticky drippings on the counter and in refrigerator, cob webs in the corner of the bathroom, and sheets still in the dryer when I went to fulfill my checkout cleaning duties, it seems apparent they are charging cleaning fees and then not providing a service. Updates needed also. Fan above main bedroom has a sticker on the chain that states not to exceed low speed. That’s because it’s old and way out of balance so it shakes like it’s going to fall off the ceiling! Take the time & the very small amount of money to fix/replace it! Strip beds, wash, dry, fold sheets and comforters. Take garbage out to main can at street which is out two gates about maybe a mile away. Clean all sinks, no hair, no toothpaste, mop, sweep, and vacuum inside. Clean off porch and stairs…..the list goes on to include a note written on the bottom of the inside of the garbage to remove any crumbs! I mean COME ON! So you better wake up early on the day of check out to get it all done! This madness, for us, it took away from how awesome the place could be. I guess we could have just not done any of it, but that is not how I was raised! I try to respect other peoples property but for this reason I will not recommend or return. Gates were a bit tedious as there is a main gate with 4 locks and a key box. Had some issues figuring the key box and lock combo but once we got through that the signs to the cabin were easy to follow to the second gate which had a key pad to enter. No problem there until you go to leave at checkout you must exit your vehicle, walk around the gate (as we did with our bag of garbage) and use the keypad to get out. At least it wasn’t raining on us. Keypad on both sides would be nice. no ice trays! Oh and the bathrooms are small. Small seats, small sinks, one only shower and it’s small. Would have loved to have given this a better rating but 2star is the best I can do. Was afraid to make a fire or use anything extra at the place because I would be expected to service and clean afterwards. Hard to enjoy!

Great Family Getaway
My family enjoyed this property immensely. A secluded cabin in the woods but with all the comforts of home made everyone happy. My husband enjoyed fishing in the river while the kid explored the shoreline and rock hunted. We made outdoor campfires and s’mores, and snuggled up by the indoor fireplace with books. Be aware it is a long driveway, so any plans out and about take a bit longer. The Food Lion in Millers Creek is about a 20 minute drive.

Beautiful Oasis in the forest
We had a wonderful time refreshing in the woods. The road in is treacherous but well maintained and the cabin is lovely. We went for numerous walks on the property, spent a cozy day inside while Hurricane Debby whipped through and went for a beautiful hike at Rendezvous Mountain State Park. We loved hearing and playing in the river and found a bunch of critters during our stay. I wish there were actual hiking trails on the property, we just walked the roads because we didn't see any but it was still a great escape and not too far from town if you need something. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us!

We loved the creek in the back of the property. Our grandkids were able to play in it everyday and swim in the swimming hole. Lots of bugs, because you are surrounded by beautiful woods. The driveway is good, but treacherous if you are coming in late at night. It truly was a beautiful location to get away from it all.

The location is great! We were right next to the creek and got to walk along side and wade in the cool water. The inside was very nice and cozy so my friends and I were able to relax. The kitchen was very nice. Overall we had a very nice stay and would highly recommend this place! Just an fyi, the bedrooms on the upper floor don’t have doors, but they worked just fine for us.

Beautiful North Carolina place
We really enjoyed the stay at this house. I was a little worried after reading all previous comments, but we really liked it and most likely be back! It is very isolated, quiet, you can't hear a thing but the creek and birds. Owners were very nice and reaponded quickly to all my questions. Someone in previous comments recommended to screenshot directions, that was really helpful and the signs along the way are super easy to follow. We walked up the creek in the water which was fun! The house was clean enough and had everytying we needed. One thing I would recommend to have in the house is something to deal with the fire and logs in firepit. Maybe a big stick or shovel would be helpful. A note for future visitors is that there is no firewood provided, so you have to get your own. Overall it was a fun and nice stay. Definitely we would do it again! Thank you!
