White Oak Cabin - Charming Valle Crucis-area Cottage!

Your new favorite mountain hideaway awaits! Get away today to this charming 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage nestled in a quiet mountain corner near historic Valle Crucis.

The main level has an open great room with exposed beam T&G ceiling and lots of windows to allow natural light. A dining table between the living area and kitchen creates space to sit down together to enjoy a meal, prepared in the efficiently designed and well equipped kitchen. Kick back and relax in front of the gas fireplace and watch your favorite shows on cable TV. There's also a full bathroom off the great room.

Time for bed? There are two welcoming bedrooms on the lower level, each with a Queen bed. These rooms share access to the second full bath, with a tub/shower.

The spacious semi-wrapround deck, surrounded by the peaceful forest, is sure to be your favorite hangout spot here.

Enjoy the mountain air while cooking on the gas grill barbecue.

White Oak Cabin is just around the corner from Papa's View and Lazy Oaks Lodge, making it a great choice for groups who need their own space but still want to be close together!

Perfectly located just a few minutes from exciting Boone, charming Blowing Rock, and historic Banner Elk, as well as a short drive to all the best shopping & dining the High Country has to offer, White Oak Cabin is a wonderful choice for your next getaway!

A wonderful, cozy spot tucked away in the woods. Close to Boone, but very private and quiet. The property was very well equiped with everything we needed for a comfortable family weekend.

Enjoyed our stay at White Oak. Very comfortable cottage in the woods. My husband and are were very comfortable there and the dog loved walking the hills as it is not flat. Kitchen was well equipped and we were able to enjoy meals there while sitting on the deck. We enjoyed watching the many deer graze around the property. Very quiet and private location.

This is a well kept and appointed property. The nice secluded area is a great place to just unplug and do some porch sitting. The entire process was seamless from renting to arrival and checkout. When in the area I would use this property again. Far enough away from the noise of town and close enough to enjoy all the area offers.

The cabin is charming, and the location perfect. Unfortunately, there were some damaged deck boards on the back deck, which unfortunately also caused injury. However, customer service, and the repair man who showed up same day, did everything they could to repair the situation.

Close enough to perfect

The view from the porch was amazing. Too cold to drink coffee from the porch but the view from in front of the fireplace was just right. Location was perfect for Blowing Rock, Boone and Grandfather Mountain. Just a great place to stay!!

Perfect Mom/Daughter Getaway

Great location for our mom/daughter girls trip before fall semester. House was well appointed, the interiors were very clean and furnished lovely. Location was very convenient near Valle Cruis to Watagua River for fly fishing and close proximity to all our favorite places including the Blue Ridge parkway. Neighborhood is a deer sanctuary. Two fawns greeted us upon our arrival and were spotted frequently throughout our stay. We really enjoyed our trip. Thank you!
