About this property

☆Panoramic Views☆Rustic Luxury☆3K/1Q/2BB☆ Hiking☆Fire Pit☆Fireplace☆Ski Close☆

Mountain Experience at its best!! With a massive, panoramic view, LongView is a large and spacious log cabin (2,600 sq. ft.) that is rustic and offers luxury elegance. LongView is a newly renovated and professionally decorated mountain cabin. Set in the Banner Elk subdivision of Grey Fox, a gated community, LongView is conveniently located within 5 minutes of both Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain Ski Resorts with both offering fantastic year-round activities.

This cabin has a two-level wrap-around deck that offers numerous and various seating and dining. The decks provide a long and panoramic view of the beautiful mountains including the coveted Grandfather, Sugar, and Beech mountains.

As you enter LongView you will find a great room with a cathedral ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows offering incredible views of the mountains. Adjoining the great room is the kitchen and dining area. This living area has a large stone fireplace with gas logs and a brand new 60” Smart HDTV and Dish Satellite over the mantel. Comfortable leather furniture completes the space. The Master Bedroom is on the main level and comes with a King bed, 55” Smart HDTV and private bathroom. Also on the main level is a 1/2 bath, laundry room, and pantry.

Upstairs provides a loft with a queen bed and another master bedroom with a King bed, 55” Smart HDTV and private bathroom.

Downstairs offers another bedroom with a King bed and two bunk beds. This also adjoins a full bathroom. Downstairs also provides another large Den/Rec room furnished with a large, comfortable sectional sofa (great for watching movies or relaxing after a day on the slopes), and 60” Smart HDTV with Dish Satellite.

You’ll love LongView because of the fantastic panoramic views, beautiful decorations and rustic mountain feel, 3 king beds with accommodations for 12, four large screen TVs, dual family areas, two-level deck, and fire pit. LongView is good for couples, families (with kids), business travelers, and groups. Our place is close to mountains, waterfalls, rivers and lakes, hiking and biking trails, golf, restaurants, horseback riding, wineries, skiing, tubing, sledding, whitewater rafting, and more.

This is a perfect location for all the High Country has to offer. Whether you want to ski, hike or sit on the deck and enjoy the view, LongView is as good as it gets! Everything is new, clean and much attention has been given to every detail.

For large groups, one of our other properties, GrandView, is literally right next door!!!

Spring get away

Great weather, close to ski slopes, fun time. Perfect location for an amazing view. Loved Fred’s Mercantile nearby. We enjoyed seeing the many deer in the neighborhood. We loved the security of a gated community and the privacy of the area. The house is beautiful with comfortable beds, and gas logs were fantastic. We made some good memories.

Good Family Getaway

Pretty, well appointed home. Our group of 11 enjoyed the two living spaces and the nice kitchen. Beautiful views from the porch! We got the snow we were hoping for, too! Dining room chairs and downstairs bunk beds were rickety, need some attention. Matresses on 3 king beds not in great shape. Overall, with a few tweaks, a very nice place to stay.

Know before you go

On our first day we found stinky decayed dead mice on a sticky board beneath a table in the main room. Messaged the host. "John, we arrived just after 2:30 PM. Everything smooth. Decided to brush up on a little putting game I have and the ball went underneath the credenza. Looking under to retrieve my ball found these two dead mice on a sticky board decayed and odiferous. I have the photo here to send you, but I do not know how.to attach it. I have disposed of them, but frankly shocked." His answer: Message from the host "Bryan, I am sorry you found those. To be honest, they are very common in the mountains. We have six homes up here and all six of them are treated A-1 pest control. it seems like no matter what you do they still find a tiny crank or an open door to get in. Please accept my apologies for this unpleasant experience. I will contact the pest control company tomorrow. " Not what I was expecting and insultingly condescending. Also, you need to know this property is stairs and stairs. It's not a bad place but best for young families or teens. The dead mice incident, which from the decayed corpses indicated they had been there a long time, and the cavalier response would dissuade me from any of this host's properties. The property is, however, well-decorated and has a lovely view from the deck. This is only my experience. I have stayed at VRBOs in the US and Virgin Islands and have had many good experiences in the past, and we prefer VRBOs.

Ladies retreat

There were 8 of us on a church retreat. The home is beautiful and well equipped. The views are amazing. There are several steps to get down to the walkway to the home that should be noted for older renters, we had an 83 yo with us and it was difficult for her. The steps inside are a little steep and she had to stay on the main level the entire 7 day stay. Also, on the warmer days the home reached 76 - 77 degrees (in April) it was quite warm inside even with the windows and doors open (that we could open). I contacted the owner about several issues and his response was to raise the windows and open the doors and indicated that ac wasn't really needed in the mountains and that he would address the other issues after we left, including the ice machine that had quit working. Not the response that we had expected.

Beautiful weekend getaway

Our family enjoyed the beautiful views and was able to spread out and enjoy our stay in this lovely cabin. All the comforts of home are provided by the owner. Just a wonderful way to get away and relax with family. Upstairs did lean toward being warm but our weather was perfect to cool it down by opening a window. No complaints.

Amazing

The house is everything you see in the pics and more. It’s exceptionally clean, very beautifully appointed, and has a 180 degree view that is spectacular. Although it was just the two of us, the layout of this home is perfect for 2 couples with full masters on separate floors, with plenty of beds and play space for the kids downstairs. The home is conveniently located, equidistant between Beech Mountain and Banner Elk. Lots of great dining options nearby as well as many outdoor activities (or just sit on the deck, read a book and enjoy the view!).

Great stay

Great property in a great location with wonderful view. We were a larger group with three generations of adults. The lower level family room and deck were nice as they provided extra space from the main living area for folks to get a little quiet time. Having a master with en-suite on the main floor was nice for our older family members who did not have to use the stairs. Hot tub was not working which was a big disappointment since it was one of our top desired features. Great place
