🐾 Bobcat Run - real log cabin w/ huge hot tub! Near Watauga Lake 🚤 & River 🐟

Beautiful, secluded log cabin. 3 bedroom/2 bath, 1300 square feet. Accommodates 6 adults or a family perfectly. The cabin sits on the back side of Beech Mountain close to the Watuga River drop in, Laurel Creek Waterfall and Watauga Lake. Enjoy two covered porches - one in the front and one in the back. Our cabin offers privacy without total isolation. Easy access off the main road. The large hot tub is private on the rear side of the cabin. We have new outdoor cafe lighting to enjoy while you sit in the hot tub or grill on the gas grill! Everyone loves the fire pit in the evening- it is great for s’mores under the stars! There is a new outdoor table on the front porch to use for playing games, drinking morning coffee or enjoying your meals. The cabin has an easy to use remote control gas fireplace, wifi, cable TV, new washer/dryer, picnic table and stainless steel gas grill.

The Master Bedroom is located downstairs and has a king size bed with an attached bathroom. ADA handrails are installed in this tub/shower. The two upstairs bedrooms each have a queen size bed. There is a TV in the living room and one in the master bedroom. The cabin is well maintained and very clean. It is conveniently located near 3 ski resorts all about 30-60 minutes away. It is only a few miles to tube in the Watauga River near Cove Creek. Enjoy Laurel Creek Falls- a short 10 minute drive from the cabin. You may also enjoy a swimming hole in the Watauga River about a half mile from the cabin off Guy Ford Road.

We welcome pets (limit 2) and have a $50 pet fee payable with reservations. Please crate your pet(s) if you leave the cabin. We have 1 crate available. Pet bowls are provided along with plenty of room for your pet to play in the yard.

Unlike many other cabins, you do not need to start laundry or take away the trash at your departure. We also have a pest control service, monthly, to keep any bugs away, although we have not had any problems. Thank you for considering Bobcat Run! We look forward to hosting you!!!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. A TV comes with cable channels and a DVD player, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washer/dryer, a fireplace, and a private yard.

The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Erika said just bring food and drinks & thats all we needed. Our dogs had a ball in the snow. There were supplies to clean the snow off the porch & stairs. It was a little hard to find it because we didn't see the sign due to it snowing. I'd love to stay for a longer time.

My family and I had a small vacation here and mainly stayed at the cabin. They had tons of board games and of course the hot tub! It’s very quiet and peaceful, the front porch was somewhere nice to relax while catching up on reading. Accessing the cabin was easy and the directions given were very clear! Definitely would stay again.
Saw a deer and her baby.

This is our second stay at Bobcat Run. Everything from the online booking process to our actual stay went smoothly. The cabin is in a quiet rural setting full of wildlife and overlooking a small goat farm. This trip, we saw deer, fox, turkey, and rabbits. The turkeys were very friendly and followed our car. The house is immaculate with very comfortable mattresses and is well stocked with essentials. We loved the crow from the morning rooster, a nightly hot tub dip, the crisp fresh air, and the beautiful view from the front porch. One of her favorite stays in the high country!

Nice and Private Cabin

Great place to get away to private surroundings. VRBO photos were accurate. Cabin was very clean. House well stocked. We did day trips to Blowing Rock, Valley Cruises, Banner Elk, and Grandfather Mountain, and swam in the swimming hole with waterfall that was a short drive from cabin that we found by asking a local resident for directions. We had a great getaway.

Excellent Vacation

Stayed at the Bobcat Run cabin during a ski trip w/ the family. Cabin was excellent! Very clean and roomy for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. We encountered an ice storm which made driving on the mountain roads a little sketchy but manageable. Ice storm created a power outage, but the owner was very attentive and had it restored. Owner was very communicative every time we had a question. The hot tub was fantastic each night after long days of skiing. Definitely recommend this cabin

Lovely cottage with nice facilities in secluded spot. Quiet, peaceful and short drive to Boone. Spa temperature a little too high for comfort and we found it difficult to adjust but this did not hinder our stay. Lovely cottage and enjoyed our visit.

Very Nice Cabin

Very clean and nice cabin. TV didn't work very well. Fireplace wouldn't turn on But it still was a great house. Very clean Only negative was the road and driveway was so steep, it should have noted to us that a all wheel drive is recommended. Part of the road coming in had a partial washout right near the lumber mill, not safe.

A gem of a property!

This was our third time at Bobcat Run. This cabin is very clean and has everything you will need. Well stocked kitchen, plenty of games and seating, comfy beds and a luxury hot tub. We had coffee every morning on the porch listening to the birds. We played countless card games and ended almost every evening with time in the hotub. We made many meals. The location allowed for a visit to Asheville, Beech Mt, Banner Elk, Boone, and Grandfather Mt. The layout of the cabin allowed us to spend time together (2 teens and 2 adults) and have privacy also. It’s a great place and we hope to visit in the fall next time.
