Breath Taking View of the Highlands of the Roan with Hot Tub and Pool Table

The Mountain House is located on the highlands of the Roan in beautiful Roan Mountain, Tennessee.

Our Mountain House is at 4200 feet elevation, overlooking the beautiful Heaton Creek valley. Full length covered porches and plenty of comfortable chairs offer majestic mountain and valley views and great opportunities to enjoy our cool mountain breezes.

Because of the 4200+ feet elevation we recommend 4 WHEEL DRIVE vehicles for visits during November thru February. The state keeps Highway 143 fairly clean and the county usually plows Log Cabin Lane by noonish after a snowfall but there will still be some snow on the road and of course in the driveway. Having said that, it's absolutely beautiful at The Mountain House during and after a snowfall.

The Cherokee National Forest is a few hundred yards away in most directions and, as the crow flies, the Appalachian trail is less than 2 miles away. By road, Carvers Gap, and the Rhododendron Gardens are 3 miles. The Mountain House is minutes above the Roan Mountain State Park which offers swimming pool, tennis courts, camping, hiking, and fishing. Actually, several hundred miles of trout fishing streams (including the trophy trout designated Watauga river) are within a 30 mile radius.

We are conveniently located just 35 minutes away from the ski resorts, restaurants, and shopping of Banner Elk, Boone, and Blowing Rock, North Carolina.

If you are sitting on our back porch enjoying the view, Nascar racing will seem a world away. In fact, the Bristol Raceway is a pleasant 50 minute drive away.

We've made our Mountain House comfortable and cozy. You will feel right at home, and will want to come back often.

We hope you come visit,
Richard and Martha

Spacious house with beautiful views
The house is really beautiful. Walking in and seeing the how big the kitchen table is was reassuring for the rest of the house. The view is different every morning and every night depending on where clouds are sun is shining it's beautiful. The downside to the king bed is that it sinks in the middle so it's not the rest you're hoping for. Also the floors are dirty throughout the house and we had to wear foot covers. The hot tub was nice to have however there were so many chemicals in it that it bleached out the colors of our swimsuits and was unusable after 3 days.The owner was nice to chat with and able to help with most issues.

Wow View, Not Clean
Base3ment Bed sheets smell of sweet, had to wash, dishes in cabinet had dried food on them, not clean, lots of dust, Parking blocked by low branches, yard needs trimming. Narrow road and hard to back out. Wow View, with 2 hours of TLC would be a 9, as it was a cluttered messy 4.

Winter Mountain Holiday Family Vacation
The cabin was exactly as listed and had breath taking views of the mountain range. We traveled to Sugar Mountain to ski over our stay and the roads were safe for travel granted the weather was around freezing most of the trip. Per the owners, a four-wheel drive/front wheel drive vehicle is a must during the winter during freezing/snowing weather as the local neighborhood road is not cleaned as regular as the state road. My overall rating of this property is 9 out of 10. There were a few items that could be updated; however, I highly recommend.

Great House to spend Thanksgiving weekend with Family, plenty of room for the 5 kids and 3 adults to be together as well as apart. We would stay here again and probably will the next time I visit my brother and his kids. Nice fireplaces and great large rooms for gathering together and great views

Amazing views and amazing family memories
We all had a great time at Richard and Martha's cabin. The drive up was beautiful but a little scary. Just not use to the mountains. The road leading to the cabin is much scarier but we got through it. Again not use to the single road with mountain and drop off on each side. Definitely needs 4 wheel drive. The cabin was absolutely beautiful. The pictures don't do it justice. The beds were great. Kitchen fully stocked. Pool table was fun. Fireplace was perfect for roasting marshmallows. The kids loved the hot tub. My SIL and I wished it got a bit hotter. Couldn't get it past 95. The mountain views were breathtaking. They were different everyday. Met some wonderful neighbors but for the most part we were alone. The history in the cabin was so cool to read and look at. One of the best trips my family had in a long time. The dog became a mountain goat lol. Wished there was more room for the kids to run around outside on a safer playing field but we hiked enough and utilized the playground below. Thank you again.

Perfect mountain get-away!
Everything you need to relax, rest, converse, eat, sleep and renew! Loved the personalized welcome on the hand-written chalk-board. The photographs online do not clearly represent what you see or feel when you walk in the cabin - warmth, comfort and space. The home is so much better than it appears online. Highlights - wood burning fireplaces with wood and starter-logs provided, well-stocked kitchen for cooking and serving, lovely round dining table for 8 well-suited for lingering at the table in conversation, great sleeping beds, and 2 full size beds in the loft (not seen in the photographs) along with the sleeper sofa, and - the view is amazing! (Be prepared for no cable/internet connection typical of being in the mountains but Direct TV is available on the TV in the main room of this home.)

Outstanding views but we got chemical burns from the hot tub and the pool table wasn’t worth it
Pros: When we first pulled up we couldn’t believe the outstanding views. The house was clean and taken care of. The location was ideal for hiking Roan Mountain. Owner sent a hand drawn picture of location of property. The kitchen had everything you could need. The two fire places with good dried wood was awesome. Access to a propane grill was a plus! Cons: When I inquired more about the house through the messaging service through VRBO, the owner didn’t respond. We couldn’t find the place at first because the house number was covered up. We had to walk up to the house and remove the decoration that was obstructing the house number to make sure it was the right place. Multiple people that got in the hot tub left with chemical burns or hives. We are hoping it’s just too much chlorine and not bacterial but either way, it’s not ok. The pool table only had one straight stick and no good tips. For most people this shouldn’t matter but we rented this place specifically for the pool table and hot tub to have something fun to do. All in all it was a good place with an amazing view but don’t rent it for the hot tub or the pool table because both disappoint.

The view was phenomenal
There’s a lot to say about this place but I’ll try to sum it up. For starters, the couple that owns this rental is very sweet and nice. The view was amazing and probably the highlight of our stay. However, my family and I didn’t think it was cleaned very well. Someone that was with us is allergic to dust and they had a terrible time. The dishes in the cabinets were dirty. I think we left it cleaner than what we got ! We did run into a problem but I won’t mention it because the host took care of it by compensating me. There are plenty of beautiful trails nearby and a small little grocery store nearby as well. I wouldn’t recommend the hot tub unless the host uses less Chemicals. There was so much bleach in it that my black bathing suit turned grey ! It was just too much. All in all, it was worth it for the experience.

What a wonderful mountain home!
The house can accommodate a large family or in our case 3 couples and a child. There is still plenty of room especially with the downstairs bedroom -pool table room. Lovely house, very homey and warm with the fireplace. Nice kitchen and decor throughout with some amazing local crafts. Awesome views of Roan Mountain and the Appalachian Trail is just minutes away! We escaped hurricane Irma from Florida and plan on returning for a real vacation.

Mountain House Roan Mountain
Watching the valley come to life as the lights come on in the evening is magical! Sitting on a beautiful deck on the top of a mountain is so relaxing. This house is theme decorated. Every detail is covered..The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need. The house sleeps 10 to 12 so it is a good place for friends and family to gather. The area is close to the Appalachian Trail so if adventure is on your thing this house has it covered. I have also been here is the spring for the Rhododendron Festival. Beautiful. I love the mountain house and look forward to my return visit.

Private, Peaceful, and Unbeatable View!
This cabin is amazing! I stayed here with several other couples (10 people total). We loved the Roan Mountain themed decorations and the charm of this home. It is actually quite large – there are 2 full back porches that overlook the valley. The view was breathtaking! The hot tub was just what I needed after a stressful week at work. This would be a great place for a large family too. We were all able to have dinner together around the dining room table and there were more than enough dishes, glasses, mugs, silverware, cooking utensils, etc. The bathrooms were also clean and well stocked with linens. While we were there, we played disc golf and tennis in the park at the bottom of the mountain (only a few miles away). We also drove to Damascus, VA (a little over an hour) where we rented bikes and rode the Virginia Creeper Trail. Then we saw a play at the historic Barter Theatre in Abington. It was an awesome weekend! Richard and Martha (the owners) told us that they have a few other properties in the area that are not listed on VRBO. If this cabin is booked or if you are looking for something of a different size/price, you should contact them. We’ve actually already booked our return trip! :)
