Journeys End in Valle Crucis - hot tub, pool table, privacy
New and improved is an understatement!! This is one you've got to see! At 4200 feet above sea level on Hunter's Ridge, this secluded four bedroom log cabin truly is the Journey's End. The 70-mile view from this home is breathtaking. You can enjoy the massive wood burning stone fireplace from two different rooms, the dining room and the Great room. New kitchen, central air, four bedrooms all with their own new private bath. The great room is warm and inviting with Satellite HDTV and DVD. The separate dining room, loft with WiFi connection and large wrap-around deck with new hot tub, provide all the amenities of home and then some. And for the young at heart; a recreation room downstairs equipped with pool table, a gas log fireplace, and HDTV and make this your Journey's End!

We really enjoyed the cabin, especially with the New Orleans decor. Felt like home. The TV needs to be repaired (kept shutting off) and an outdoor fire pit would have made it more comfortable to enjoy the balcony views. Otherwise, we loved it. Very homey and cozy.

We had a wonderful time at Journeys End! It was truly a winter wonderland. We had a good bit of snow and loved every second of it. The house was very homey, it has a true cabin feel with all the beautiful wood. The house had all the things we could have asked for or needed during our stay. The games were a nice treat for my family! We had a little issue with the hot tub, tv, and lower fireplace upon arrival but with a few phone calls they sent out a maintenance man who was very hospitable and kind. He fixed all of our issues very quickly. My only critique would be the tv, the cables were loose and it kept turning off and on randomly. So that might need some attention just to get things in working order for the next guest. The house is a bit of a trek from main road but it is a pretty drive. Being from Florida and the snow a few areas were concerning but we managed just fine. We would recommend this cabin to others. Thank you again!!

Journey's End
The house was wonderful and very accommodating for our large group of adults (7 total). The property was clean and the space was very "livable". The only challenge was the road had been washed out by Hurricane Helene last year, and portions of the road is still being repaired. The road was passable, but it we had to be more cautious in some of our vehicles.
