Wild at Heart: 3BR Blue Ridge Cabin w/ Ziplining, Trails, Hot Tub & Fire Pit

Looking for a restorative, adventurous escape into nature? You’ve checked into the right place! Meadowlark Cabin in the foothills of North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains is ready and waiting to host up to eight guests for an unforgettable getaway.

With three bedrooms and three bathrooms, this spacious, modern cabin is perfect for large families looking for outdoor fun. Couples looking for privacy and romance will also find it here.

First thing’s first: divvy up the three bedrooms! Want to claim the primary bedroom? You’ll be happy to discover a cozy queen bed, with plenty of natural light and high ceilings. This spacious room has plenty of storage space and an overhead fan for warmer days.

Kids will fit perfectly in the second bedroom, which comes with one double bed and two twin beds. And the third bedroom also works great for couples or kids, with one double bed, tons of closet space, and a cozy cave atmosphere for the deepest sleep of your life.

There’s so much to love about this cabin, but one of its most underrated features is the three bathrooms! Because who wants to waste energy fighting for bathroom time? Two are full bathrooms with vanities and large mirrors, and the third is a half-bath. One of the fulls has a luxurious soaker tub and separate walk-in glass shower, and toilet with a door for privacy. The other has a shower-tub combo. And make good use of the complimentary toiletries, fresh linens and towels!

Now that you’ve unpacked and settled in, it’s time to explore the home! Spend time in the spacious main living area. This wood-paneled living room with high ceilings, rustic decor, and huge windows will give you that magical chalet feeling. Relax together on the couches around the wood fireplace and toss on a movie to relax. Or challenge each other to a game of foosball.

Next up: the game room! This fun recreation room has plenty of board games and Pac-Man to keep your family entertained. Enjoy the fun pops of color, vintage decorations and neon lights as you play.

Time to eat? We’ve got you covered with a full, modern kitchen (this definitely isn’t your average cabin!). Brew some of the complimentary coffee or tea, then cook up something tasty using the stainless steel appliances. Then head to either the cute breakfast bar or large dining room table to feast on your meal together and enjoy great conversation. You can also eat at our four-person backyard table on a sunny day.

Okay, it’s time for the best part. Having fun in the great outdoors! Our cabin is totally decked out with top-notch outdoor features for your group to savor. Spend your days or nights on the spacious wraparound porch, with its ample patio furniture.

When the stars come out, gather around the fire pit or lounge in the hammock under the glow of the string lights. Or take a late-night dip in the full hot tub. Our lower level patio area also has a seating area and covered outdoor pool table to make things more interesting.
