- Main level: Expansive log-cabin-style architecture wraps you in a wooden interior that's as cozy as it is exquisite, with vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan. Gather around the gas-log fireplace to play games and watch your favorite films. Stay connected everywhere, whether you are relaxing in the great room or cooking in the kitchen.

Local Surroundings:
- Positioned within 10 to 15 minutes of all the biggest attractions in Ashe County, you can't beat this cabin's location. Downtown West Jefferson is home to a colorful array of galleries, antique shops, restaurants, and festivals (such as the annual Christmas in July Festival, which draws hundreds of visitors each year). Restaurants like Red Dog Bar & Bistro offer excellent food in a casual dining setting, while breweries like New River Brewery and Boondocks offer you a taste of the High Country's best local beers. Also nearby is the quaint community of Glendale Springs, where you can visit the wonderfully creative Greenhouse Crafts Shop and the Glendale Springs Inn & Restaurant.
- Spending time outdoors is easy in this area. Multiple access points of the Blue Ridge Parkway are close by, where you have endless options for hiking and sightseeing. Some of the best parkway stops near your rental include Doughton Park and its historic Brinegar cabin, as well as Moses Cone Park further down near Boone.
- Speaking of Boone, you just have to take a trip up to the college town while you're here. Home to Appalachian State University and Appalachian Ski Mountain, Boone offers year-round fun. Head to a football game in the fall, hit the slopes in the winter, or just peruse the many shops and boutiques at any time of the year. The village of Blowing Rock is only 15 minutes from downtown Boone, so hop over there while you are in Boone to find even more unique shops, restaurants, and parks.
- Less than 10 minutes from your cabin is Elk Shoals, one of the many New River State Park access points. Mosey on down to the park to take a dip in the water, or put your canoes or kayaks in near the cabin and float down to Elk Shoals that way. If you don't have your own equipment, stop by one of the many local outfitters to rent boats and check out different sections of the New River.
--------------------------------------------
Important Notes:
- Pet Policy: Dogs welcome, two-dog limit. Must be leash and crate trained, two years or older, and 45lbs or less. $50 per pet, nonrefundable.
