A Backdrop Dream - 3BR/3BA Log Home, Hot Tub, Firepit

Big mountain views, a pristine setting and the sounds of a babbling creek welcome you to this newly updated spacious three-story log cabin including loft with 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, sleeping 12. A Backdrop Dream is the place to go to get back to nature and experience the luxury of mountain living at its best.
.
As you pull up to this beautifully maintained home you are greeted with the first of many amenities, the large outdoor hot tub just waiting for your enjoyment sitting adjacent to the game room with pool table on the lower level of the home. High above you will see the main floor wraparound deck with its outdoor bar seating where you have views of either the creek below or the spectacular mountain scenery. Regale friends with the adventures of the day while waiting for your dinner to finish on the gas grill adjacent to the deck bar or just sit still and listen to the creek below.

For the more adventurous, the outdoor fire pit and private patio is a perfect setting for conversations under the stars or building a few old-fashioned s’mores made over an open fire. Right there, in your own private mountain setting.

Family and friends will enjoy the fully stocked kitchen opening out to the main living area with its large comfortable leather couches. All will sleep comfortably with one king bedroom on the main floor, and an additional king bedroom on the upper floor with additional queen sofa sleeper in the adjacent loft area.

Peaceful, beautiful view, well maintained

We were delighted to stay at this peaceful VRBO with friends. The view is lovely, even though we missed peak of fall this year. We even enjoyed a small dusting of snow, which made it even prettier. The road is paved all the way up, so traction is great even though it is steep. The loop driveway made getting in and out easier. There was plenty of room & comfortable seating. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. It was nice to have a fairly well stocked kitchen for cooking. The hot tub is a great bonus after a day of hiking or shopping. We were glad to see the nearby towns recovering from the hurricane, and they were glad to have tourists.

Lovely view!

This unit had a well-stocked kitchen (pots, pans, etc.) - everything we needed to be able to cook dinner every night. The furniture was comfortable and nice looking. It was very well kept, and the owners/management company saw to extras - like providing firewood for the outdoor fire pit and the indoor fireplace. It was very homey, and we all had a great time. It was quite the drive up the mountain to get to it but the road was paved the whole way. My one critical feedback would be that the pictures online (while accurate in cleanliness and decoration) give the impression that the rooms are larger than they actually are. We were 4 adults and were very comfortable. There's room to sleep more people but it might be a bit tight - depending on your comfort level.

Amazing cabin! My family had the best time playing pool, hanging out in the hot tub and just relaxing on the deck. We took a nice hike on the property that was crazy- if you go, you’ll see why! Will definitely be returning. We greatly appreciate the opportunity to be able to stay at such an amazing place!

Property is wonderful. The road is very steep getting up to the property so be prepared but it is worth the view. Everything was lovely. We did have a bear visit us at the property the 2nd night we were there but he didnt bother us at all.

Ahhh-MAZING!

This was the BEST vacation! The Vista at Angel Ridge was such a beautiful place with an amazing view...watching the sun come up every morning was a perfect way to start the day. The house was huge and was perfect for our party of 10, the hot tub and fire pit were great and the fully stocked kitchen had literally everything we needed! The property manager answered my questions within minutes and when I couldn't get the gas fireplace going (the pilot light was out... I've never used gas before), they had maintenance on the phone in less than 15 minutes to help me. I will absolutely rent this property again if I get the chance!! Thank you for some great memories made!

Our Family Vacation

Our family was a group of 10 Ranging in age from 13 to 81. The property net everyone’s expectation. There was the game room, the jacuzzi, the out door fire pit with theater and the nearby by hiking trail. Nature was all around and at night we could see deer. The kitchen was fantastic as so were the rooms and beds. We made a great family memory.
