About This Home

Escape to your own mountain retreat with this charming log cabin tucked beside the Appalachian State Nature Preserve, where adventure and tranquility meet. Step outside your back door and onto a network of hiking and mountain biking trails that wind through the preserve and connect directly to App State’s baseball stadium, as well as getting you to campus, the football stadium and downtown Boone. This authentic log home offers the perfect blend of rustic warmth and modern comfort. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area welcomes you with hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and a grand stone fireplace—the heart of the home and the perfect gathering place after a day of exploring. The kitchen features updated appliances and plenty of counter space for entertaining or cozy nights in. Designed for easy living, the home’s main level layout provides seamless flow and comfort, while the unfinished basement offers endless potential for expansion, storage, or a recreation space. Once a highly successful short-term rental, this property offers incredible investment potential, a full-time residence, or the ideal mountain getaway. Convenient to town yet peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature, this is Boone living at its best — where the trail truly begins at your doorstep.
