Riverfront Log Cabin w/ Private Waterfall, Firepit & Panoramic Deck

Reconnect with nature and refresh your spirit at our charming riverfront log cabin, nestled in the serene mountains of North Carolina. With 3 cozy bedrooms—including a downstairs master suite and two spacious loft bedrooms—our cabin comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests, making it perfect for romantic getaways, small groups, or intimate family retreats.

Inside, enjoy a relaxing ambiance with a classic wood-burning furnace, central air and heat for comfort year-round, and high-speed Wi-Fi to keep you connected. The living area is stocked with books, a Smart TV with an old-school DVD player, and comfortable spaces ideal for unwinding after a day exploring the outdoors.

Step outside onto the panoramic deck overlooking your own private waterfall, an exceptional feature that provides the perfect backdrop for sipping morning coffee or stargazing at night. Enjoy the soothing sounds of cascading water, or gather around the firepit for memorable evenings roasting marshmallows and sharing stories. Relax in rocking chairs or the swinging couples' chair as you take in the peaceful, creekside atmosphere.

The cabin is perfectly positioned alongside the Reddies River, renowned locally for its stocked rainbow trout fishing—beginners and seasoned fisher alike find success here (locals recommend corn as bait!). While there are no official trails, guests love walking along the riverbank or exploring nearby gravel roads.

Our location offers easy access to notable attractions and events: grocery stores and restaurants (including our favorite local Mexican spot, Plaza Del Sol) are just 15-20 minutes away. Many guests book stays around local music festivals such as MerleFest, Brushy Mountain Apple Festival, and Carolina in the Fall Festival. You're also within easy reach of the Blue Ridge Parkway, Scott Kerr Lake, Appalachian Ski Resort (1 hour), Boone/Appalachian State University (45 minutes), Linville Caverns (1.5 hours), and Asheville's Biltmore Estate (2 hours).

We provide everything you need—including linens, towels, kitchen utensils, and a coffee machine—to ensure your stay is stress-free. Discover why guests return year after year for the ultimate getaway: relaxation, family bonding, and unforgettable connections with nature.

Note: Exterior security cameras are present on the property for added security. During winter months, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is recommended due to potential snow and icy conditions.

Great location, underwhelming property

The listing is very deceptive, when we walked in there were cobwebs and stuff covering the floor. We had to sweep just to walk without shoes. When we went to take a shower upstairs it smelled like the inside of a barn, they also have an ant problem and it happens to be over that shower. When we couldn’t get into the first gate, it took 3 plus hours to get a response from the host. The only good thing about the property is the closeness to the creek. I wish the best of luck to anyone trying to stay here in the future and hope the hosts do a better job with proper upkeep.

This was our second stay at the Blue River Cabin. It is a lovely, private spot in the woods that feels "off the grid" but offers electricity, plumbing and high speed internet!My family had a wonderful time fishing in the river. Thank you for allowing us to vacation in your delightful cabin!

NASCAR Allstar Race trip

My husband and I stayed for a long weekend. The cabin was about 40 minutes from the track, though it is only about 10 miles away. The accommodations were exactly as listed, comfortable, and the sound of the water was incredibly relaxing. You are not super close to anything so ensure that you have your food and other staples with you before making the trek to the house (20 - 25 minutes to grocery stores). Everyone that we met was so kind and helpful! Definitely a great example of southern hospitality.

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.

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!

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!

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.

Beautiful destination

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.

Beautiful hideaway!

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!

Loved this property! Definitely plan on going back. The river is amazing. Super private and secluded. Shared the cabin with a few harmless bugs (moths and such) because it is solidly in the forest, but they never bit or were much of a bother. Great amenities and easy directions!

So relaxing!

We had such an awesome week! It was everything we hoped it would be! The cabin is a good 8-10 minute drive from the road (the first gate) to the 2nd gate so take that time into consideration when venturing out because GPS doesn't factor it in. Our kids had a ball catching (and releasing) trout, creek walking, and just being lazy in the cabin. We also saw a family of wild turkey on the drive down from the house. Highly recommend and hope to enjoy this cabin again some time.

Cleanliness, Rodents, Bugs/Spiders

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

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.
