About this property

Pet-Friendly,Cozy Cabin,Hot Tub,Wood Fireplace,WiFi

This beautifully crafted, classic cedar NC mountain home has sweeping 180 degree views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Paved roads and a circle driveway make this cabin a super convenient way to enjoy the Blue Ridge from eye level. Long range views pour into the great room, dining area, adjacent kitchen and the loft through large fixed glass windows that surround the wood burning fireplace. Guests will find two bedrooms and a full bathroom located on the main level. The exposed loft features an additional queen suite and game table balcony, both open to the great room below. A full bathroom in the loft completes a layout that allows up to seven guests to enjoy a comfortable stay at Idle Spur. Idle Spur provides the total mountain cabin experience with natural wood accents throughout. Hardwood floors, peeled log furniture and knotty pine tongue and groove interior walls stretch from floor to ceiling. Turn off all the lights and gaze at the stars or watch the light from the fire flicker across the exposed beams in the vaulted ceiling high above. Enjoy the mountains outdoors on the large front porch perfect for taking in the views. An outdoor hot tub is available for the ultimate relaxing treat. Idle Spur is also equipped with modern convinces including fiber optic television and wireless internet service. The owners additional accents such as the outdoor propane grill and stocked board game shelf make every stay a memorable one. Put down the smart phone and pick up one of several hand crafted iron puzzles and emerge yourself in getting away from it all at Idle Spur.

This was a great place to stay, other cabins around but you still felt like you were secluded. Me and my husband thoroughly enjoyed our stay, it was a great break from work. The cabin was very clean and had everything that we needed in it for our stay.

Cabin Weekend

The views portrayed by the online listing did not disappoint. The cabin had a wall full of windows overlooking Grandfather Mountain in the distance. The property was extremely quiet and peaceful and made for a great weekend getaway.

Great weekend getaway

Took a quick weekend drive up from Charlotte with a few friends. Everything was great, we had everything we needed. The view from the back deck was beautiful. Overall, two thumbs up!

Possibly the Best View on the Mountain

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Idle Spur cabin with its lofted bedroom facing the large great room windows was perfect. I honestly can't think of anything I'd recommend changing. We'll certainly be returning and bringing family members along on our next trip.

Great for a quick weekend!

We booked this cabin last minute for the Labor Day weekend and overall we were happy with it! Gorgeous area and common areas of the resort were well kept. Our house was clean overall and what we expected. Only callouts are that the small yard and drive were unkempt and need some light work done (weed eater mostly). The dishwasher also does not work (doesn’t seem to have pressure or something to actually clean what’s in it), though it does run. There’s a rusty nail in it too that we think may have been used as a homemade attempt to fix it somehow. We would definitely stay at this resort again but would try to get a different so we didn’t have to spend time washing dishes. The hot tub is also detached from the home which would have been nice to know ahead of the trip. Again, overall the house is very charming and great for smaller groups!

Amazing vacay

This cabin was quaint, peaceful and charming. Two bedrooms and a loft and two baths. Tubing, trails and horseback riding in on the property. Amazing views. GPS is a definite no but the staff are helpful and super friendly and will best direct you to the parkway. If you use their directions you are about forty minutes from the parkway. If you are down to hang out, cook in and enjoy the scenery and make a day trip out of the sites close by, this is an amazing place!!

A great weekend for four lifelong friends!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My dear friend's husband recently passed away so I wanted to get her away for a relaxing weekend. We also took our daughters who grew up together and have remained friends for 40 years. Our cabin was perfect! The view was amazing and the girls enjoyed the hot tub. We had our first night's dinner at the little restaurant on the property which was very convenient after a long ride. The staff was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We ended our Sunday afternoon with an awesome horseback ride lead by our guide, Lily Weston. Lily is a precious young lady! I hadn't been on a horse in 40 years, but Peggy Sue was a great horse, as were the other three! We will certainly plan another vacation at Leatherwood. Haven't had such fun in a long time!

Christmas/New Year Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great, quiet vacation at the "Idle Spur" house. We arrived on December 27th and stayed until January 2nd. The house is great; it was clean, cozy, the view was fantastic at any time of the day!!We went hiking on one of the trails. We tried to go horse back riding but they were booked throughout our stay... we took awesome pictures of the horses and stables etc. I would recommend this property for a small family or small group. Customer service at the office was good. The instructions on how to get to the property were accurate. Other than the fact the the washer was not working, every other appliance in the house worked perfectly. Management tried to get a repair man up there to fix it but no one showed up. We understand, it was the last week of December... The distance to "civilization" was kind of long. it was a 45/50 minute drive to Boone and to other attractions. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to going up there soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the view from the house. My favorite was the unobstructing view the windows offers to see the valley. Kids loved the loft , bunk beds and the hot tub. I would love to go there to see the fall foliage next time. With all the home amenities it’s a perfect place away from home.

It was a quaint cabin with excellent views all around. It was decorated really nicely. We enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub (just wish the hot tub was closer to the cabin). It was a wonderful Christmas experience for our family. Would definitely stay at this property again.

Nice view of Grandfather Mountain.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time renting a Cabin. It was exactly what we envisioned in our minds as to what a "Cabin in the Mountains" should look like... Beautiful view of Grandfather Mountain from rear wrap-around porch, Classic loft cabin with large wooden beams. Once we arrived, my wife and I never left the Cabin. FYI, just bring your groceries with you before you head up the mountain. The icing on the Cake was the Hot-tub built on a separate deck area. Look forward to going back....
