Highlands Luxe 24-acre Mountain Estate, on Big Creek, Joe Webb Log Cabin

Get away from it all at this glorious private mountain estate known as Big Billy Cabin! This historic and updated Joe Webb log cabin is set on 24 wooded acres, with over 1,300 feet bordering Big Creek and Pinky Falls. The pet-friendly retreat, surrounded by old-growth Hemlocks, is 3 miles to Downtown Highlands. The 3-story cabin has large covered porches perfect for entertaining, 7 fireplaces, a copper soaking tub and Viking range. Big Billy Cabin is truly a spectacular place to make memories!

This magnificent antique home was built by the famous log cabin builder, Joe Webb, between 1929-1931. The homeowners moved the cabin to its current location in 2006 when it was updated and a large addition was added by the equally-renowned log cabin builder, Tommy Chambers.

WiFi | 6 Bedrooms | 5.5 Bathrooms with complimentary Victor Vassier toiletries | Private Stream Access | Pets Welcome

**We welcome pets for an additional pet fee. Please inquire with homeowners prior to booking!**

Boasting over 5,500 square feet of indoor living space, Big Billy sits on 24 private acres and borders over 1,300 feet on Big Creek. (Guests can hike the creek to a local swimming hole known as Pinky Falls.) Recharge and unwind in front of one of the 7 wood-burning fireplaces, or entertain family and friends on the 1,800 square feet of outdoor decking and porches. This quintessential mountain retreat provides ample opportunity to enjoy the wonderful Highlands temperatures day or night. Almost every room in the home has direct access to the beautiful, great outdoors.

2 Washers/Dryers | Copper Soaking Tub | Stadium Seating Movie Room | Smart TVs | Charcoal Grill

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
**We are proud to offer such a special place for your enjoyment. Please treat our home as you would treat your own. Because of the nature of the structure and antique decor and furnishings, some things may need special care. You are responsible for any damages incurred by those in your party, visitors, children and pets.

**Please note: Guests must declare all members of their party prior to arrival booking. Failure to record the number of guests in your party at booking could result in termination of your reservation without any refunds. We appreciate your cooperation!**

**We recommend trip insurance to protect your investment.

**Your security matters. There are three exterior security cameras at the main points of entry to the home. None of the cameras look into interior spaces or into sitting areas underneath the covered porches.

** There is also an alarm system you may use during your stay.

IMPORTANT FOR PARENTS - This is a great place for kids. However, the property is not child-proofed and may not be suitable for very young children.
Parents will need to provide their own supplies for kids and safety equipment that they feel is necessary. We do however provide a pack n play, high chair, and safety gates at the top of the stairs.

DRIVEWAY- Big Billy Cabin is located off a main road up a hard-packed gravel driveway approximately 1/3 mile long. There is a short, steeper portion of the driveway, but is still accessible for cars without front or all wheel drive. The driveway is well maintained and there has never been a problem with cars getting to the house. In inclement weather however the driveway may become rutted and bouncy in spots. Please let us know if this is the case, and we will send someone to grade it out.

Top Notch
I’ve stayed at a million places in Highlands and this one strikes the best balance of close to town but enough space to enjoy the outdoors. It was an INCREDIBLE cabin (coming from a cabin snob). Fireplaces galore, wonderful covered porches, games for the kids, hiking trails, river, etc. I highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity.

Amazing Stay minutes from Highland
This property was absolutely amazing. The historic Joe Webb cabin was crafted with the most detailed architecture. Our family enjoyed staying there and making memories in the great room and on the back porch. The basement is filled with light and endless entertainment. You can not beat the location as it is just minutes from Highland. We loved our stay here and look forward to returning!

This is one of the coziest homes I’ve ever stepped foot in! We loved our stay so much and cannot wait to go back. The property is gorgeous. The trail down to the river was such a gorgeous surprise! Follow all the way. It’s beautiful! Can’t wait to visit again when it’s warm. The primary bed was so comfortable and the steam shower was amazing! There are just so many good parts to this house. I could go on and on.

Delightful Thanksgiving in the Highlands
What a beautiful property for our Thanksgiving getaway. We had plenty of space for each of our children and their children to sleep and play. Our kitchen was well equipped for our many meals and especially our Thanksgiving meal. We loved gathering around the many fireplaces with a gracious supply of split wood. We hiked and played outdoor games on the beautiful property. We had the incredible support of our personal concierge Stephen,who was available 24/7. Such a memorable time at Big Billy Cabin! Thank you!

Magnificent Private Cabin!
Our family of six absolutely LOVED our recent stay in this luxurious cabin. The cabin is very spacious, clean, cozy, private and well equipped with amenities. The owner has provided everything you could need. We felt so welcome. Just sitting on one of the grand porches and listening to the creek and wildlife was worth the entire stay. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. Local shopping in Highlands is only 10 minutes away. We are so appreciative that we were given the opportunity to enjoy this amazing home. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you!

Grandma's 80th
What a beautiful property. Nestled deep in the woods, the Big Billy cabin is a work of art. The architecture and craftsmanship is detailed and so unique. The house is appointed with such lovely furnishings and artwork. Each bedroom is layered in soft linens and has a story. We loved the use of local art and collections throughout. Honestly not a corner that has not been curated. We opted to entertain at the house and found the kitchen and pantry to be well provisioned and easy to cook in. The outdoor porch and 7 fireplaces were used every minute we were there. Thank heavens the wood was well stocked! Stephen was lovely getting us checked in and made it all very easy. The cabin was the perfect spot for our family to gather and celebrate my mom. Thank you so much for sharing your home! It is a special place. Look forward to visiting again. We plan to put Big Billy's Cabin on repeat.

Absolutely magnificent home
We all enjoyed immensely our time on this incredible property. Everything was clean and there was absolutely not a single appliance or pan that was not there at our fingertips! That was amazing! Thank you for your eye for every detail. The stickers on all the light switches were an lifesaver!! Loved the notes, they were sweet and informative! My one observation is the denim sofa covers are in desperate need of a bath in the washer. Thank you Just so you know a couple light bulbs in the living room and den are out. In case the cleaning crew don’t catch it. All in all I hope I get to rent this beautiful property again on day Thank you!!

Great Getaway
This property is great for a large gathering . There are several gathering places where you are not all on top of each other. The seven fireplaces were an added plus! It is only a 7-8 minute drive into the Highlands. There were two bunk bed bedrooms which allowed fun for our grandkids. The only negatives were two of our girls found tic tacks in one and batteries in the other when they uncovered their sheets to sleep.
