About this cabin rental

Nestled in Watauga, this lovely cabin for $152 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. “The Tower” was one of the original structures built by our developer. The unique building has been converted into a humble efficiency, studio apartment called “The Last Resort”. In December of 2020, the property got a face lift with new bedding, ceramic tile bathroom floor, equine themed artwork and custom built cedar bar. It is a bright and airy change to the much loved lodging! It is perfect for couples looking for a quick uncomplicated get away to Horse Country. It is conveniently located at our Equine Center next to the Restaurant. This no frills apartment is perfect for our guests that need simple accommodations. Stalls available in the equine center by reservation. • Digital Network Tv • WiFi - Lighting Fast Fiber Optic Cable Internet • DOSS SoundBox Bluetooth Home Speaker • USB charging station • No Smoking • Air Conditioned • Gas Grill • Pet Friendly for $75 • Stalls available by reservation $$ • Located in Gated Resort Community • 30 minute drive to Boone and Blowing Rock Leatherwood Mountains has surveillance or recording devices on the property.

Good Vacay, No Frills
Good Vacay, No Frills
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This little cabin is close to the barns and horsey stuff which was our main interest. It didn't cost much, but it let us find out if we would like to bring our horses in the future. It does not have a dishwasher or washer & dryer but we didn't come here to cook a banquet or do laundry so we didn't care. It's just two of us and our needs are simple.
Pro: the people were all very nice and I felt like they gave me special treatment. The horses work hard but are well cared for and in good shape. I had a lesson one day and a trail ride the next day. Lesson instructor really understood and helped me with what I need to work on. The trail guide was a young lady who was very personable and engaged all the riders so we went from a group of strangers to friends during the ride. The refrigerator was clean and worked well. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was simple but had plenty of surface areas to put my toiletries and spread out (Yay!) and was very clean. They only give one towel per person, so bring your own if you bathe every day. The TV and Internet service were excellent, we were able to log into our streaming accounts and watch our "binge faves" just like at home.
Con: The kitchen accoutrements were a bit sparse. You should bring your own large salad bowl, cooking pot, and sharp knife. The air conditioner was barely able to cool the room (end of June hot). The oven storage drawer was nasty with mouse leavings. I washed every dish, plate, pan, and piece of silverware before I used it as a safety precaution.
Summary: We had a good time and would go back again. As a try-out for a few days this cabin was affordable and convenient for us. I would rent it again, but if I could afford it I might pick a little bit larger one. This is for two people only. And you have to like each other.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cozy and efficient. A second set of towels is needed if you planto stay more than three days and two nights. A bit noisy with the garbage bin nearby. Very busy early in the morning with trucks and workers. Great price! Trail ride was Awesome!!! Plan to bring your own meals and snacks! Shower and water pressure is great! Wonderful piece of paradise!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: For the most part we enjoyed our stay. The location is serene, the horses are lovely, and the bed is quite comfortable. Access to fishing spots and hiking trails was wonderful, the TV came loaded with every streaming service you might want to use, and the WiFi was strong enough that my wife and I worked remotely for several days and never had a hiccup in service.

However, the cabin needs some significant improvements. The kitchen provisions were inadequate. The only available pots and pans are very old, deeply scratched teflon pans, and baking sheets in the oven storage were covered with mice droppings. Many dishes and cookware were poorly washed from previous stays, and so we had to re-wash everything we used. I know it's "no frills", but I don't think clean dishes are a frill.

It was cold during our stay, so we ran the heater most days and nights. The gas line has some kind of flow problem, and the heater blasts a VERY loud and VERY high pitched scream into the room about once every hour or two, for about 15 seconds. We slept VERY poorly. Guest book logs show that multiple visitors have complained about the screaming heater before, and apparently the issue remains unresolved.

Check in and check out were straightforward, but communication was poor. We were instructed to download a proprietary app to view all facility information we needed (we didn't). With a little work we managed to figure out this information without the app. Also we booked via phone and made clear we were bringing a pet and had no problem with the pet fee, but the pet fee wasn't charged until a week after our departure because "The cleaner said you had a pet and she charged extra for the cleaning", which felt a little accusatory. Tried to arrange a later check out after the work day but got told we'd incur a $37.50 late check out fee. It's $54 per night, so a charge of almost an extra night, which seems ridiculous. We left a day early and probably would not stay he
