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.

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!

Miriam, thank you for the lovely review. We're so glad the cabin, view, and kid‑friendly space worked well for your family. We’d love to host you again soon! - BRMR

One of the best Airbnbs I've ever stayed in! The house is incredible and the view is beautiful. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The hosts are super helpful and responsive. Definitely want to come back again next year!

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!

Our family had a wonderful stay here. Our family especially enjoyed the pool table and the beautiful views. The property is very secluded and just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The customer service and communication from Blue ridge mountain rentals was absolutely amazing. Would definitely recommend!

We take an annual mountain trip every February, and this house is one of our favorites that we ever stayed in. Our group appreciated the comfortable beds, big bathrooms, private location, great view, wood burning fireplace, hot tub, and that it was dog friendly. The house had many gathering spaces, and we especially loved the large kitchen open to the living room on the main floor. It was the perfect set up for celebrating my mom's birthday and Super Bowl weekend. Extra thanks to the Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals team for their helpfulness and friendliness whenever we spoke. Added bonus that repeat customers get a discount on future stays!

- David, Posted: 05/30/2023
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!

This was a spacious cabin that fit 3 families comfortably. Great location, view, house amenities. We cooked many meals over 4 days and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed.

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.

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.

It is a pleasant place, the view is great, you can admire nature in all its splendor, you can admire deer and eagles on the way, excellent to escape from the daily routine and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the mountains.

This rental cabin was absolutely amazing. It was very clean and luxurious. The kitchen was well equipped and open to the living room. We enjoyed using the fireplace in the evening and spent most of our time sitting on the deck gazing at the spectacular view. Watching the sun rise over the mountains every morning was a treat. It was nice the have the master bedroom on the main floor for my elderly handycapped parents. Everyone enjoyed having a flat screen TVs in their bedroom. The location was secluded but close to a grocery store and about 30 minutes to Banner Elk and Roan Mountain State Park. This place is perfect and look forward to being a guest here again. Lastly our interaction with Blue Mountain Rental staff was extremely positive.

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.
