Description Description

Welcome to your private mountain getaway at Cranberry View Lodge! Tucked away in a peaceful corner of Avery County with no other homes immediately in sight, this beautiful home offers spectacular mountain views!

Enter the home with just 2 steps up from the gravel parking area. The great room features a dining table for 8 to your right, and to your left is a spacious kitchen with granite counters, custom cabinets, and Samsung and Frigidaire stainless steel appliances including a double oven.  A few steps further takes you into the living room, where the focal point is a beautiful wood burning fireplace with river rock running from the hearth all the way to the ceiling. Leather furniture is arranged facing the fireplace which has a TV mounted above it.

Downstairs is a game den offering a 7’ long convertible pool table, ready for fun and friendly competition for everyone! There is also a second wood burning fireplace, a wet bar, full bathroom, and large TV down here, as well as doors to the lower deck.

From the living room, double doors take you outside to the deck and the sweeping mountain views. Kick back and relax as you watch the clouds make playful shadow shapes on the mountain ranges fading into the horizon. A selection of Adirondack chairs awaits on both the upper and lower decks. The upper deck also offers a covered section with an outdoor dining set and a gas grill.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Time for bed? Cranberry View Lodge offers six bedrooms including two ensuites, plus a futon in the loft, so there’s plenty of space for everyone!

  • On the lower level you’ll find two bedrooms each with a set of twin over-twin bunk beds.
  • On the upper level are a Queen bedroom with TV, a bedroom with two single Twin beds and TV, a bathroom on the hallway, and a Queen ensuite bedroom with TV and private bathroom featuring an oversized tiled shower.
  • The master suite on the main level has a King bed, TV, doors to the deck, and a private bathroom with soaking tub, double granite vanities, and a large, tiled shower.


LOCATION
Even though it’s nestled in the mountains in a quiet gated community, Cranberry View Lodge is less than a mile and a half off Highways 194 and 19E, with downtown Banner Elk just 15 minutes away. Beech and Sugar Mountain ski resorts are both about 25 minutes' drive, and Grandfather Mountain is just 30 minutes away as is Elizabethton TN. Boone and Appalachian State, as well as Johnson City TN, are all about 50 minutes away.

The house was perfect for our family! We were in town for our nephew’s wedding.. not too far from the event. Some of the skillets in the kitchen need to be thrown away, if cooking for a lot of people, bring some! Plenty of plates, cups and silverware. It was great having some spices to use.. as we forgot ours! Everything in the description was spot on!

Thank you for the great review! Congratulations to the happy couple and we're glad your family enjoyed the cabin. We will check into the kitchen equipment and appreciate you highlighting that. We'd love to welcome you back anytime! - BRMR

Beautiful cabin and incredible view. Super spacious and kid friendly. Close to a lot of wonderful restaurants and experiences. A quick checkout list was very helpful to our families as well. Took a lot of the stress out when having to pack up and leave a really fun trip! We really enjoyed our time!

We had such a blast! Came here with a group of friends and it was the perfect spot. Stunning views, very private, and the home itself was gorgeous. It was very spacious, and the kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked and felt luxurious. The hot tub was also great! In the listing it mentions a pool table, but the pictures don’t show the awesome game room downstairs! - such a nice “bonus” that we didn’t expect. Plus, the area felt very walkable, so when it unexpectedly snowed all weekend, we spent lots of time walking around and had some beautiful views. We truly had such an enjoyable time. The host was also very responsive and kind. I’d definitely recommend this home, and would love to be back!

The views are awe inspiring! The cabin is both majestic and welcoming. The beds were the talk of the weekend - so comfy! There are so many bonuses in this place; the loft area is a treasure, soaking tub in the master, two enormous walk-in showers, butler's pantry, firepit, an en-suite bedroom upstairs - in addition to the master, covered eating area off of the kitchen. We enjoyed it all!

Mountain paradise.
We could not have been more pleased with the experience of our stay. Every little detail was met from things to cook with and alcohol shakers to makeup remover wipes in the bathroom. Every detail of the house was perfectly decorated and a pleasure to look at not to mention our spectacular back patio view. The location was just the right distance from being tucked away from everyone with the ability to enjoy outdoor experiences close by. We loved your cabin and would recommend it to anyone who asked.

Beautiful secluded cabin with Mountain views
We had a total of 9 adults and 1 child, on arrival we were greeted by a very tall extravagant privacy fence that made us all giddy. The home is exactly as described and showed in photos. The road leading up to home is paved but very steep so if going during winter months be prepared. Distance to sugar mountain and beech mountain is Approx 30 mins. The good/ beds were extremely comfortable, plenty of towels and complimentary bath soaps and shampoos, kitchen was well stocked with most necessities. Home is modern and updated including huge walk in showers, smart TVs in every room, wood burning fire places. Views were incredible, hot tub was clean and perfect for our family. Needs improvements/ living room furniture is visually pleasing, but not very comfortable to snuggle up on, gas stove wouldn’t get hot enough to boil a pot of water but we made due, air hockey table was sadly broken! Overall we enjoyed our stay and are very pleased with our 1 week vacation.

My friends, who are essentially my family embarked on our annual ‘league trip’ to fulfill another fantasy football draft. We’ve done league trips for a decade. This spot came onto my feed with just 2 prior reviews. The price and pictures were intriguing. Fast forward to night one and everyone already had agreed…. This was number 1. What a gem. The pictures don’t do justice.

Gorgeous pet friendly log cabin!
From the first communication with Blue Ridge Rental, this has been an incredible experience. Gorgeous new property with comfortable beds, many amenities, plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, a game room, and a well appointed pantry/coffee bar area. The game room downstairs was great, such thought has gone into decorating this home. Our group of 14 loved it & the views were stunning from sun up to sun down. Grateful for the Thanksgiving memories! Our only recommendation is that we wish there was more cozy furniture in the family/great room! That’s it!

The house and the view are amazing and exactly as pictured. This home fit our family of 9 and two dogs very well. The entire home was incredibly clean. Some of the most comfortable beds we have slept on in a rental home. It was an easy 30 to 50 minute drive to places like Grandfather Mountain and Blowing Rock. Conveniently located minutes away from stores and restaurants. Our family enjoyed every minute of our time in this beautiful home.
