Description Description
Considering a mid/long-term stay in the beautiful High Country? Discounts can be offered to those seeking month-long+ stays so please inquire with our team!

Welcome to Farallon, one our coziest Valle Crucis log cabin rentals. Surrounded by hardwoods and rhododendron and natural rock outcroppings, this cabin offers the perfect mountain hideaway. To step onto the covered side porch is to already disappear from the hectic world of deadlines and intrusions. The most pressing intrusion here is likely to be a chattering squirrel or the leaves dappling the light upon the pages of the latest best-seller.

To open the door and step inside is to be greeted by nature. The spaciousness of the floor plan is augmented by large windows flanking the magnificent wood-burning fireplace and rising all the way to the cathedral ceiling. With the clean lines of the furniture and the contemporary wrought iron light fixtures suspending from the ceiling offer unobstructed view of the forest outside every window.

The open dining area features seating for six and French doors that open onto the front deck equipped with a gas grill for preparing mountain trout freshly caught in the nearby Watauga River. Pristine modern appliances appoint the fully-equipped centrally located kitchen.

The living area features a comfortable seating area before the fireplace, a flat screen television, and a cabinet of books and games for relaxing after the day’s excursions of canoeing and hiking. A telescope waits in the corner for gazing at stars light years away in the crystal clear skies.  Hidden behind the kitchen are two bedrooms. The master offers a King bed and the second bedroom has a Queen bed, and each offers the rustic comfort of layers of patchwork quilts. Large windows allow plenty of sunlight for enjoying a lazy breakfast in bed.

A large covered deck stretches the entire front of the cabin, overlooking the surrounding rhododendron and large boulders. The deck is furnished with rocking chairs for after dinner snoozing and features a hot tub for soaking away the stiffness of overdoing it on the slopes while the snow falls around you or hiking up nearby Grandfather Mountain. Follow the path outside to your own fire pit for knocking off the chill after a summertime shower, roasting dogs and s’mores, and telling bear tales.

For larger groups, consider renting this cabin with nearby Black Bear Lodge or Van Beek's Peak.
Due to the access road, 4WD, chains or sometimes both may be required when visiting the mountains in winter. Access to this home may not be suitable for vehicles with rear wheel drive, limited ground clearance, or motorcycles even during summer months.  We are happy to help you find the home with the access you are most comfortable with, any time of year!


Looking to stay longer during a quieter time of year? Stays of 5 or 6 nights outside of summer, fall, and holiday dates automatically receive 10% off posted rates!

Check in was great and easy, the cabin was clean, the hot tub was working and great! Everything was very enjoyable about our stay! You will need an SUV or 4WD to get to this cabin but we had no issues in my SUV. We went to the Land of Oz and it was a simple drive to Beech Mountain!

Private, Super Clean, Everything you need
This may be an older cabin but you will not find a cleaner one. Blue Ridge is awesome communicator. Weber grill on deck, classic older style jacuzzi 4 person hot tub on deck, two couches and nice fireplace. Only one neighbor about 4 acres away. Very private. Amazing sunrises and Mountain View's from deck and living room. Loaded kitchen. Perfect for weekend. Hike from the home to the top of mountaintop- about .3 miles. Cons: no yard. Home on slope. Small driveway that required 4x4, 25 mins from any stores, one lane road to home (arrive in daylight only). Pro Tip- go to Kettle Brewery in Banner Elk - place is a dive but awesome brew. We will be back to this home.

We had a great stay at Farallon! This cabin was absolutely perfect for us (two couple family), and we enjoyed the scenic drive up the mountain with plentiful wildlife. We had a bear attempt to get in our empty trash can one morning at 3 am, so believe when they tell you not to leave food in your vehicle. By the way, 4 wheel drive is a must! This area was convenient to all the things we wanted to do and see! Wish we could've stayed longer and looking forward to returning!

The property was beautiful, well appointed and clean. A perfect location for our family to share fellowship and relaxation. We loved the views, the hot tub and the fire pit.

The perfect cabin for a family of 4!
The cabin was exactly what we wanted! I had a hard time finding a cabin that would accommodate our husky, family with kids, and a hot tub. This one checked all the boxes and did not disappoint. Yes, the road is a doozie to get up to the cabin but honestly that was one of our favorite parts. The ducks, deer, turkeys, chickens, were always out to greet our car as we traveled to the cabin and the kids loved it. The house was clean, kitchen was well stocked (could use a few more dinner plates) beds were cozy, view was amazing in the morning and evening. We even saw flurries in March! Also want to note this house SMELLED CLEAN. I have been in rentals that had an odor or felt musty. This one DID NOT. We traveled from the NC beach to the mountains and will travel back to this same house again. Thank you for the get away! Outings we took and I recommend: Alpine Coaster, Linville Caverns & Otter Falls

This was our first stay at Farallon and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! It's a bit of a challenge to get to…but a fun one! It was private and the views were beautiful! The cabin itself was just perfect for our family of 4. It was clean, well stocked with everything we needed and so comfy cozy! We would definitely love to stay there again! On a side note…we went to The Gamekeepers restaurant for dinner while there and it was on of the best restaurants we love ever been too! It's a must from now on for sure!

Farallon Cabin
We stayed at the Farallon Cabin for a long 4-day weekend for a girls' trip, and had such an amazing time. The cabin was clean and cozy, and perfect for our group of four. The kitchen was well stocked for our home cooked meals, and it was just a perfect stay. It was a 20 minute drive just to get to the house from the bottom of the mountain so we were grateful that we had everything we needed and didn't have to venture out much. If you are planning on going out to eat or go sightseeing, be prepared to factor an extra 20 minutes into your travels. All in all, it was the best place for our group to stay and we had an amazing time. We slept so well in the comfy beds, had nice showers with the great water pressure, and relaxed in the hottub and on the couches under cozy blankets. We will def use blue ridge mountain rentals again!

Perfect for a peaceful retreat in the mountains.
My wife and I decided kind of last minute to take a weekend getaway in the mountains with some friends, and this cabin was perfect for what we wanted. It's very secluded (no neighbors in site), clean, cozy, and very well stocked. It takes approximately 15 minutes to get up the mountain, but it is a lovely drive and we did not mind it at all. Easy to find if you just follow google maps. There are some attractions and stores relatively near by (20ish minutes) and about 30 minutes from countless beautiful hikes with waterfalls, amazing views, wildlife, etc. We would 100% stay here again.

We had an amazing weekend away from the rush of the city. The hot tub was lovely with the beautiful view of the mountains in the distance. We honestly spent a large portion of our trip just lying in bed watching TV. I slept like a baby here. The driveway is a little scary and steep but other than that everything was perfect.

We stayed at Farallon
We stayed at Farallon, it was way up the mountain so the views were wonderful. The house is very nice and cozy. Wonderful fireplace. We ended up having snow so going in the hottub while it was snowing was great. So peaceful. The only concern was the driveway. Very steep and single lane, so we had to reverse out. Other than that it was a great house to stay in.

This was the perfect place for a little get away. Close enough to where we could take a drive into town for a meal but far enough away to where we felt completely removed from anyone! Was very clean and exactly as described. Very easy to get into contact with if anything breaks - we thought the hot tub was broken on day 2 but wasn't sure and they insisted to send someone up since we were staying for 4 nights. Some of the most beautiful sunrises to see from that balcony just wish some of the trees would move over a few more inches over ? Will definitely be back!

Wonderfully Peaceful
My wife and I rented a cabin with Blue Ridge Cabin Rentals for our anniversary and it was one of the best times of our marriage. The cabin was peaceful, had a wonderful view of mountains and trees, and the staff was incredibly helpful with every question we had, including whether or not we could make it up the mountain with our FWD sedan. The cabin itself was clean with many kitchen appliances, a grill, a hot tub, and a fire pit as well as plenty of room inside for the price. We even saw a bear and her bear cubs running around one night while we were staying there. We absolutely intend to rent the cabin again in the future.

AMAZING
My husband, the dog and I stayed at the Farallon for 6 days and it was AMAZING! The fireplace, fire-pit and hot tub were clean and well maintained. The house is beautiful with lots of room and a very open floor plan and tons of windows to enjoy the view. The beds are very soft with ample pillows and blankets. Lots of dresser and closet space to unpack and feel right at home. There isn't a keurig machine so bring coffee filters to make coffee by the pot. The kitchen is very well stocked with flatware, utensils, pots, pans, bakeware, blender, crockpot, and everything you would need to cook and bake. Make sure to pack storage containers, ziplock bags and such for any left-overs. Also bring condiments, unfortunately I forgot and had to run out to the market for ketchup, mayonnaise, butter, etc :-( Our stay was the beginning of April so there were no leaves on the trees, you can see the rooftop of a few homes but really there was no one around. In the 6 days we were there we did not see a single person. We took hikes around the area and it was so peaceful and beautiful. Watauga County has strict leash laws and there are several farms in the area so please do not let your pet run off leash, it would be very easy for them to get into trouble. You definitely need a 4wd or AWD vehicle to get to the property. We did have to call maintenance on Saturday morning for a pretty bad faucet leak and they came right out and fixed it, I was really surprised at how fast they showed up for a Saturday morning [very professional]. We look forward to visiting again in the future.

The Farallon was spectacular! House was as expected from pictures, and really quiet and picturesque. Trust their directions as they are spot on. Plan to return when the leaves are off and the snow starts! Even the kids loved exploring around the cabin. Thanks!

Exceeded our Expectations!
“This place had absolutely everything that was described and exceeded our expectations... it was worth every penny. The place was beautiful, spotless, and very well appointed. The communication from management was perfect and we truly appreciate all of their help throughout the entire process. The views are amazing and suggest getting up early to watch the sun rise from the deck. There are too many nice things to say about this place. We cannot wait to return.” “Thank you so much for the perfect vacation. The place was beautiful and perfectly set up. It was so relaxing and peaceful... the small touches/details were very much appreciated. I would also like to thank everyone who responded to our questions in a very timely manner. Again, we had the BEST time and will definitely plan to return. Thanks, Ben & Laura”

Great Cabin
Awesome place! It was a great cabin out in the woods. I'll definitely point out that when they recommend 4WD/tire chains, they mean it. there's a little bit of driving off the paved road that couldn't have been done without 4WD because of the snow. The house was cozy and clean, the hot tub was great, and being secluded was awesome. I'd stay here again.

Clean and Bright
We really enjoyed our stay from the moment we stepped into your home. It was so clean and bright and your decor made the house feel so warm and cozy. The fireplace was great! Sitting on the rocking chairs on the deck was a wonderful way to begin and end the day. The Jacuzzi was so relaxing. Thanks again. Chris and linda

A Lifetime Memory
We stayed at Faralllon for our honeymoon, it was my first time in the mountains of NC. The home has beautiful architecture, all wood interior, a lovely home. Everything we could have had asked for was included, the hot tub being a great feature, in fact we came home and ordered one! The cabin is in Valle Crusis, about a 30 minute drive up the hills from Boone, very secluded, with no other homes visible. We had worked hard to organize my Citizenship, our Marriage and Honeymoon, and this was the perfect retreat. You have to check out the Bue Ridge Parkway with it's many overlooks and beautiful scenery, also be sure to go up Grandfather Mountain, you will remember it forever! Check out the Mast General Store and Over Yonder Restaurant, where the food is excellent, it is not what I would could cheap eating, but the prices are very reasonable for the standard of menu offered. It also has outside seating for the warmer weather. Boone is a busy place, and Blowing Rock is lovely with it's quaint little businesses selling a wide variety of local products. We will definitely go back, maybe on one of our Anniversaries!

The Farallon Cabin--Highly Recommend. A beautiful immaculate home.
Just returned from a great stay in the mountains. Near the rental cabin, there is an animal sanctuary with rabbits, ducks, donkey, lama, chickens, pigs, goats, horses, and yes a cute watch dog. Love visiting Grandfather mountain where we saw three bears and two otters. Great restaurants. We will return next year.

Perfect Place!
The perfect place for a well needed vacation! After a busy year of hard work, NC has always been our winter spot to stop and unwind. The turn into this little community put big smiles on our faces as we caught a glimpse of this home. The views are incredible. Everything was set-up comfortably, almost like we live here. We had a wonderful time playing in the snow, taking pictures, watching all the deer and just relaxing by the fire. We are so glad we found this cabin and so happy you were able to share it with us. Thanks!

This a great hideaway on top of the mountain. We had a wonderful week in this cozy cabin. The cabin had everything we needed and some fun games and books. We definitely recommend the fire pit. A quiet retreat from the tourist activity of Boone with all the amenities.
