About this cabin rental

Welcome to 104 Thistle Do Nicely!

104 Thistle Do Nicely is an upscale 4BR cabin near the top of Beech Mountain, less than 2 miles from Ski Beech for snow skiing, snowboarding, tubing, ice skating, sledding, and more! The mountain village of Banner Elk is less than 7 miles from the cabin and offers fantastic restaurants, shopping, and a quaint downtown and park area.

The main level of Thistle Do Nicely offers an open kitchen, a dining area, and a great room with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and endless mountain top views from a wall of windows! The Kitchen has granite counters, custom cabinets, and stainless appliances. The central bartop also offers four bar stool seats for additional dining. The open dining area features a banquet-style dining table with seating for 6 guests. There are two extensions for the table in the master bedroom closet to add more space and seating. The great room boasts a stone wood-burning fireplace, HD Smart TV, leather reclining furniture, and a custom coffee table. A half bathroom also serves the main level.

The King Master Suite on the main level features an HD Smart TV, walk-in closet, and a private ensuite full bathroom with granite vanity, corner oversized soaking tub, and step-in tiled shower with frameless glass door.

Upstairs are a full bathroom with a tub and shower and two bedrooms. One has a queen bed and HD Smart TV, and the other has a full bed and a cozy window seat, which could also be an additional sleeping spot for a child. The loft features a desk and printer for catching up on work and a loveseat that opens up to provide a twin sleeper bed.

Downstairs is a large den with comfy seating and an 8-foot slate pool table, all of which face a big-screen HDTV. The downstairs king bedroom has an HD Smart TV. There is a full bathroom adjacent to the king bedroom. A laundry closet with a washer and dryer completes the lower level.

Thistle Do Nicely sits atop a huge native boulder, below which are acres of rolling, wooded land ripe for hiking and exploring! Two levels of wrap-around decks give guests outdoor access to the layered mountain views. The open-air main level deck features outdoor seating and a gas grill. The lower deck boasts a nice hot tub and access to the side and backyard.

Sleeping Arrangements (we allow up to 9 guests):
Main Level King Master Suite (sleeps 2)
Upstairs Queen Bedroom (sleeps 2)
Upstairs Full Bedroom - also has a cushioned window nook big enough for a child to sleep on (sleeps 2 to 3)
Downstairs King Bedroom (sleeps 2)
Twin Sleeper Sofa in Loft (sleeps 1)

Must be at least 25 years of age to book.

Every year for the past 13 yrs I have brought my son to the mountains for snowboarding for his birthday. This year was no different and could not have been more impressed with our cabin! The moment we walked in it was a comfortable feeling yet fabulous all rolled into one. The beds were comfortable, the cabin was clean, had everything we needed and was large enough to hold us all. No complaints from any of us......we will definitely be back!!

This is a beautiful area and a very nice house; it's just overdue for some routine maintenance. We experienced some of the same concerns with cleanliness as previous guests - nothing terrible, just splotches on the floor that had clearly not been mopped, dirt and residue on kitchen knobs, etc. The hot tub was in need of cleaning (quite a bit of film around the sides), and the cover was so worn out that bits of exposed styrofoam had fallen into the water. In the kitchen, the dishwasher rack was missing a wheel, making it difficult to open and close, and the refrigerator was leaking and creating puddles on the floor. Sliding doors were also difficult to open and close. Also, on our first night, all of the smoke alarms in the house went off simultaneously. After several minutes of trying unsuccessfully to turn them off, we had to call in the fire department, who discovered that one of the units had a bad battery and had set off all the others (they are apparently interconnected, but none of us could find a control panel). That's nobody's fault - it happens - just letting future guests know that if that happens, you have to find and disable the "bad" one, though the others will remain functional. We enjoyed a lovely mountain view through bare branches, though I would suspect you would not be able to see much in summer when the trees are leafed out. Aside from these issues, we did enjoy the comfy furniture, the awesome pool table, and the quiet surroundings. A deep clean, a tree trim, and a tune-up of the appliances would make for an even more comfortable stay.

My family had this trip planned for months and it was a surprise for my 3 children. When we arrived at the house at 4pm for check-in the house was a complete disaster. Nothing had been cleaned from the previous guests. It was very disappointing to arrive to especially for the amount we paid for the cabin. It took almost 2 hours to get in contact with someone from the rental company. They had a cleaning crew come but they didn’t do much. We ended up doing most of the cleaning ourselves. The house is nice, but desperately needs a nice deep cleaning. We enjoyed the stay and the kids had a blast. The cabin itself is nice and had lots of fun touches like games, pool table, and hot tub.
