Description Description

Welcome to Hillside Heaven! You're sure to love this log cabin with mountain views, hot tub, and pool table that sits just above and across the road from the New River. Access to the New River, one of the oldest rivers in the world and the only river in North America that flows South to North, is at the Big Hill Community Park just a short drive from the cabin and is perfect for tubing, rafting, fishing, and more. There are outfitters who host rafting and tubing trips, as well as guided fishing trips on the New River (as well as the other nearby rivers).  This is a special treat in the spring, summer and fall! 

The cabin itself is three stories, and the main level features the living area with soaring vaulted ceilings with tongue-in-groove, wood floors and walls, HDTV, and stone wood-burning fireplace.  Glass doors look out at mountain views, and lead out onto an open-air deck with seating, dining, and a gas grill.  The adjacent kitchen and dining area sit under exposed beams and wood ceilings.  Dine 12 total inside with 8 at the dining table and up to 4 more at the adjacent kitchen bar top.  Also on the main level is the master bedroom suite with a King bed and HDTV, and a private ensuite full bathroom. 

Upstairs boasts two Queen bedrooms and a Jack & Jill full bathroom with a jetted tub and separate shower, accessible from both upstairs bedrooms. Both bedrooms have vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, full closets and Queen beds, and have doors which lead directly into the shared full bathroom. (In Spring 2022, one of the bedrooms was closed off from the loft due to guest feedback, ensuring that both guest bedrooms upstairs are private.) 

Downstairs features another bedroom suite, with two sets of Twin over Twin bunk beds as well as an ensuite full bathroom which can also be accessed from the den and game room.  Also downstairs is a den and game room with a pool table, gas log fireplace, HDTV, Nintendo Switch system, comfy sofas, and lots of games to enjoy.  Glass doors lead out onto a covered deck with hot tub, with exterior steps down to the yard with the firepit area. 

In addition to the New River access, hot tub, pool table, two fireplaces and mountain views; Hillside Heaven offers its guests central heat and AC, a laundry area with washer and dryer, digital TV programming and DVD player, WiFi internet, and a newly updated outdoor wood-burning fire pit!  Hillside Heaven provides the character and charm of a log cabin, yet with the comforts and amenities of a modern vacation destination.  This cabin offers fun and convenient activities for guests to enjoy during all of the four seasons! The town of Boone is only 8 miles away, and Blowing Rock is about 15 miles away.  Both Tweetsie Railroad and Appalachian Ski Mountain are conveniently close by, located half-way between Boone and Blowing Rock.  The Blue Ridge Parkway is less than 10 miles from Hillside Heaven, and the village of Valle Crucis - with the original Mast General Store, and its massive riverfront town park - is about 16 miles away.  Grandfather Mountain is about 20 miles away, and Hawksnest Snow Tubing and Zip Lines is only 21 miles away.  Snow skiing, sledding, and snowboarding are convenient to Hillside Heaven!  In addition to App Ski Mtn, Sugar Mountain Ski Resort and Ski Beech are 25 and 30 miles away, respectively. 

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!

My family wanted a big cabin for our annual family trip and this cabin was amazing, peaceful and everything we wanted. Truly a great experience. Will definitely come back in the future.

My family of 7 came for our daughter's graduation and cannot say enough good things !! We loved the private location yet close to town . The basement “apartment” was perfect for the grown kids , complete with pool table , board games , cards and Nintendo . Better book fast cause we are already checking our calendars so we can all go back !!

Nice log cabin mountain home. Relatively close to town (for groceries) but far enough to escape. Had plenty of space for my party of 8. Convenient hot tub on a covered deck, but temperature is a bit temperamental. Expect dry air like most log cabins - but loved the indoor fireplaces.

We had an excellent weekend. We were previously notified by Blue Ride Mountain Rentals that the first house that we booked had a problem with the hot tube and they relocated us to another house (Hillside Heaven) which was working perfectly. Easy communication and check-in, the house was nice and clean, and everything working well. Beautiful view of the mountains. Thank you!

Our family, from different areas, met here for a football weekend. The cabin was found very clean, everything in place along with many amenities we used during the weekend. Everyone slept comfortably, enjoyed the fire pit, hot tub and pool table for entertainment. It's a beautiful cabin surrounded by trees giving you a lot of privacy, although there are neighbors close by. Everything we needed was found, just brought our food. I had a few questions before the stay and the rental group was very quick with the responses. It was a very pleasant experience we would recommend to everyone.

My family of 12 enjoyed this home immensely. We played pool and went in the hot tub daily. We cooked all of our meals in the kitchen. We had no issues with Hillside Heaven

The cabin was nice and the community was peaceful which is what we were looking for during a busy 4th of July. There was plenty of space for 2 families of 4 and our small dogs. The photos inside and cabin exterior were just like what we rented and most anything we needed was there. We extended our stay an extra day and that was an easy process. We would stay here again as the overall experience and cabin both met our families needs.

Wonderful place to stay with friends! Started our misty mornings on the living room deck with yoga, hiked all over during the day, then relaxed our muscles in the hot tub in the evening. Went with our run club group and will recommend in the future.

Beautiful!
We had a great stay! The cabin was clean and well stocked. We loved the view and the location. Perfect for just hanging out, taking long walks, or traveling into town. Close to everything, yet secluded enough to be relaxing. We had fun playing pool, sitting in the hot tub, and playing games with the family. Love this place!

Wonderful Visit
This mountain retreat was perfect for our family. The separation of sleeping spaces allowed for some privacy. The surrounding roads provided great walking trails and the view from the balconies gave you a sense of true isolation. We are already looking forward to a visit next year.

Much Needed Vacation
We had a wonderful vacation at Hillside Heaven. The house was big enough for our group and then some !! The house was well equipped with everything we needed for cooking for the group. The kids were happier while at the house than out touring the area because of the hot tub and pool table. They even enjoyed hiking to see the river and took some beautiful pictures . We would definitely consider this house again for future trips.

Our Mountain Adventure
Hillside Heaven was actually heaven for our family. It was nestled just far enough out of town that we had privacy but was just a short ride to town to shop and dine. We very much enjoyed ourselves the entire weekend whether it be hanging out in the hot tub or enjoying a game of pool. The cabin was very comfortable for our crew of 8 and was very accommodating. Owner was wonderful with all of our questions or concerns, would definitely recommend for a family get away.
