About this cabin rental
Welcome to The Lookout!
Just minutes from downtown Boone and Appalachian State University, The Lookout offers a great location and access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk within 25 minutes. Downtown Boone offers abundant local shopping, dining, and brewery options. Willow Valley Golf Course, a 9-hole Par 3 Executive course, is five minutes away. The Valle Crucis Community is less than fifteen minutes down the road and home to the historic Mast General Store and the riverside Valle Crucis Community Park. Tweetsie Railroad, Appalachian Ski Mountain, Boone Golf Course, High Gravity Adventures Aerial Park, Grandfather Winery, Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster, and many more High Country adventures are all within a brief 20-minute drive. The surrounding area also offers hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing opportunities, making it a perfect destination for nature lovers.
The Lookout, a custom-built log cabin on 18 acres of mountainside property, is not just a vacation rental but a piece of living history. The hand-hewn logs that make up the cabin are a testament to the courage, resilience, and sacrifices of early America's pioneering souls. Initially built in the 1830s by the Callaway family, immortalized in the annals of American history when frontiersman Daniel Boone rescued their kidnapped daughters, the cabin was moved and reassembled in its current location. The main floor living room, with its log walls and ceiling beams, is a cozy place to warm up with the stone gas fireplace. The updated kitchen has all you need to cook a favorite meal and plenty of counter space, including a beautiful wooden countertop island. Outside, the covered porch is the perfect place to relax in the rocking chairs with your morning coffee and enjoy long-range mountain views of Grandfather, Sugar, and Beech Mountains. The back deck has a gas grill, fire pit, and outdoor dining table where guests can enjoy the cool mountain air. The lower level den has a large sectional with room for the whole family to relax while playing games or watching TV.
This historic three-bedroom, two-bath cabin can accommodate up to six guests. Grandfather Mountain is visible from each bedroom. The top floor has two bedrooms with queen beds that share a full bathroom. The lower level has an additional queen bedroom and a full bathroom.
The Lookout is not just a historical cabin but a modern retreat. It has all the amenities you need for a comfortable and convenient stay. These include Wifi, a Nintendo Switch, and a washer and dryer. The lower-level bedrooms and common areas have electric baseboard heat, and the upper bedrooms have mini-split heating and air conditioning units. Two dogs are welcome, with an additional pet fee. Please note that there are exterior security cameras at the cabin. Winter travelers should prepare for inclement weather with AWD or 4WD and snow chains.

We stayed for few days before we had to drop off our Daughter at App State. We have visited Boone several times. This cabin has one of the best views I have seen. Very peaceful location on a private drive. When you are sitting on the porch looking at the mountains you feel like you are so far away, but it is a very short drive to downtown Boone. We really enjoyed our stay.

It was a good property with nice views. There is charm in the old building and purpose in the decor. We spent most the time in the kitchen or out on the deck. The fees were very high comparably so caution if you are just staying for 2 nights like we did. Overall we would recommend.

This cabin was spacious and well equipped with all kitchen items needed plus living room items (including board games and Nintendo switch). The cozy living spaces were warm due to fireplace and gas stove plus blankets. I was nicely surprised that so many kitchen extras were available. I try to leave spaces cleaner than when I arrive but this place was already so clean and well equipped with entryway rug mats to wipe snowy feet.
