Are you looking for a peaceful mountain getaway in a classic log cabin with great outdoor space and a cozy stone fireplace for warming up after a day on the nearby slopes? Welcome to Almost Heaven, a traditional Valle Crucis family cabin rental in a wonderful setting just minutes from the river and historic Mast General Store.
Valle Crucis NC has always been the heart of the High Country; driving through it feels as though you have stepped back in time as you pass the large white general store and fields with horses and cows. Cross the Watauga River, popular for canoes, river tubes and fishing, and head in to the Glen at Mast Gap. When you arrive at the cabin, you will appreciate the easy, level entry, which makes unloading the car a breeze.
Step into the large, open living area and you are greeted with the large stone fireplace and many windows. The interior is warm and inviting, with special touches throughout. The care the owners have taken in preparing this cabin for your vacation is evident in every room, with unique mountain décor and charming touches.
There is plenty of seating for everyone in both the living room and around the large country dining table. Or take advantage of our lovely spring and summer weather and dine outside on the large deck. In the morning, enjoy your coffee on the covered porch, listening to the birds and perhaps even seeing a deer or wild turkey pass by. At night, enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub while trying to count all the stars overhead.
When your day comes to an end, there are three bedrooms to enjoy a comfortable nights’ sleep. The master bedroom is conveniently located on the main level, with art by popular local artists and scrollwork king bed. The highlight is the master bath, recently renovated with large tiled walk-in shower. Upstairs, there are two more bedrooms, the first with high wooden ceilings and queen bed. The third bedroom has a queen size bed. There is an additional full bath on this level.
Spring, summer and even fall, enjoy the outdoor space at Almost Heaven. The large decks feature plenty of comfortable outdoor seating, including bent willow, rocking chairs, dining set and of course, the hot tub. There is a large gas grill for cooking up the days’ catch, and a great yard – lots of room for the kids to play, or the adults to enjoy the view and natural surroundings. There are even woods to explore!
Best of all, the cabin is convenient to local attractions and events, including Tweetsie Railroad, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain or home games of the championship Appalachian State University Mountaineers. But be sure to enjoy all there is in Valle Crucis, be it horseback riding, exploring the charms of the historic Mast General Store, or an afternoon at the popular Valle Crucis Park with its paved trails, river access, playground, picnic pavilion and live music on summer weekends.
For the classic mountain getaway, Almost Heaven is the perfect log cabin rental for your family!

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Boone for a Christmas tree this year! Your mountain home is so beautiful! We loved the privacy, views and hot tub! We saw wildlife and relaxed together.Your home is aptly named.- Debra, Posted: 10/09/2015
We had a wonderful time in your cabin! It was beautiful! Our Thanksgiving was everything we had hoped for! We were visited by chipmunks, bunnies and deer. We will definitely be back! We have to see who will be the Foosball champion next year.- Virginia, Posted: 10/09/2015
We had a great time during our recent stay in Almost Heaven. The attention to small conveniences made our stay very pleasant. Location was convenient to what we wanted to do. We are planning a trip for Memorial Day weekend next year. We would like something on the Watauga River if you have it. Thanks so much.- Dan, Posted: 07/27/2016
Almost Heaven was great for our family get-away. We enjoyed exploring the area and some down time here at Almost Heaven playing charades and watching movies. We enjoyed our coffee each morning outside on the porch, and the kids loved the Foosball table, calvin and hobbs collection, and the hot tub. We really appreciate the little touches like the fresh flowers, coffee fixins', and the shampoo samples. Thanks!- Ann, Posted: 09/19/2016
"Beautiful Cabin in a perfectly safe, serene setting" This was exactly what we were searching for to celebrate my fiancé's 50th birthday! Beautiful décor, very clean and well maintained inside and out. Very private and peaceful! We even had a young buck walk into our yard one evening, beautiful! The view was breathtaking and the peace & quiet heavenly! Everything was immaculate with plenty of extras. Really enjoyed the gas fireplace, hot tub and flat screens in every room, not to mention free Wi-Fi and fantastic cell service! We actually extended our stay after being so pleased with everything including the customer service reps who were very helpful and responsive from the start! We look forward to returning for the Christmas Holiday & bringing friends and relatives! Thanks for a wonderful, relaxing vacation away from home!- Diana, Posted: 11/11/2016
Hit the slopes, went to dinner and hiked Grandfather Mountain. Enjoyed a wonderful time with family in this great home!- Matthew, Posted: 02/16/2017
Great experience! Very clean, nicely appointed and comfortable cabin. Enjoyed the quiet location and watching the deer and other wildlife from the large covered deck. We highly recommend this cabin for a vacation in the High Country.- Lesley, Posted: 07/01/2019
We are enjoying our stay. We stayed here last year and love this house. So peaceful.- The Williamsons, Posted: 08/06/2019
This Cabin sits surrounded by trees giving the illusion you're more into woods than you are. Other homes nearby, but you don't hear or really see them. Beautiful home with all the rustic log cabin feels. Fireplace was definitely used nightly! We Went with Our daughter and her family, so we appreciated the washer/dryer for the Lil grandsons clothes. Clean and spacious with a Huge outdoor deck that wraps around the house opens up the living space amongst the trees. We accidentally left our Grandfather Vineyard wine glasses there, but you should book this Cabin and go there too! We've been going to Boone/Valle Crucis area for many years and this is a top property on our list after our visit. Would book again.- Merry, Posted: 12/26/2019
We felt at home and appreciated the time with family!- Cathy, Posted: 01/06/2020
The home was beautiful! Just a fantastic getaway and there's nothing but nice things to say. And wonderful customer service (they sent a tech to turn on hot tub, responded crazy fast to texts)! Very grateful to have stayed for the weekend!- Jacob, Posted: 01/22/2020
Home was well furnished and clean. The rental process was seamless and all details were covered. We had a great time. You will need a 4 wheel drive in winter months if there is precipitation.- Teresa, Posted: 08/10/2020
Hello. I just wanted to let you know how wonderful the home was that we rented. It was so clean and neat and had all the little details available that one would need. The kitchen was very well supplied and I was very happy to see the Keurig coffee maker! That was a plus! The TVs in bedrooms were a nice treat. We really enjoyed the gas logs! The porch had ample seating to rock or sit and have dinner outside. The master bathroom was very nice also. The area was a super place to walk in the evenings. Well taken care of and maintained. I would highly recommend to others and would come back again!! It was close to mast general area and over yonder but yet far enough away. Thank you for a wonderful family get away with our children before school starts!- Hope, Posted: 08/21/2020
Wonderful property and location. Enjoyed every minute of my stay. Kitchen was stocked very nicely.- Pete, Posted: 09/03/2020
Great location and wonderful property with all the amenities! Nicely stocked kitchen and house with all the things you will need for a super vacation. Hot Tub is a plus and worked all the time beautifully. I'd return in a heartbeat.- Craig, Posted: 09/10/2020
The most enjoyable time I ever had. I had booked a cruise and was canceled. And this was a replacement, and just-as much fun as a cruise. My family ?? and me Thank You- Lowell, Posted: 10/06/2020
This house was beautiful! It was clean and so “mountainy”. The deck was relaxing with plenty of seating for all. We went to the mountains to get our Christmas tree and found that we didn't want to leave the cabin. Wonderful place to stay!!- Christy, Posted: 11/25/2020
What a great stay we had!! First time visiting the high country and won't be the last thanks to the wonderful accommodations this cabin provided!- David, Posted: 12/16/2020
My girls and I took a girls trip for my birthday! The house was super clean....peaceful and very comfortable! If I could give 6 stars I would??- Kimberly, Posted: 12/21/2020
Came up to enjoy some needed rest and family time and to also try out skiing. Was perfect cabin- Joan, Posted: 01/06/2021
Great house and exactly what we wanted for our trip!- John, Posted: 01/14/2021
We really enjoyed our stay there and definitely recommend it.- Danielle, Posted: 02/22/2021
What a beautiful cabin! My husband and I came up for a much needed break. We go to Boone every year and rent a cabin and this one was at the top of the list as one of our favorites, it had everything we needed as if we were at home. It was close enough to downtown Boone and also was secluded at the same time. We were close to Sugar and Beech Mountains and the hot tub was so nice after days of skiing. We had deer in the yard a couple times, it was such an awesome stay and would totally come back again!??- Dory, Posted: 03/02/2021
Just as described. Clean, Comfortable and well stocked.- Brian, Posted: 03/23/2021
Excellent experience. The cabin has everything you can need to enjoy your stay- Anelyn, Posted: 03/29/2021
