STUNNING mountain views facing sunset, hot tub, 3 king bedrooms + attached baths

Perched atop a mountain ridge at 1,900' of elevation, Sunset Mountain Lodge faces directly West to perfectly frame the sun as it sets over multiple layers of mountains each night. Whether viewing the sunset from the two-story picture windows in the living room, or on any of the three levels of deck or hot tub, you are sure to be in awe by the view!

Highlights include three king-sized beds in equal-sized bedrooms featuring their own adjacent bathrooms, one queen sofa-bed, a dining table that seats eight, hot tub, pool table, foosball, a karaoke machine with Auto-Tune and two microphones, big screen TVs with Roku streaming players and satellite in all bedrooms and common rooms, Nintendo Wii, Jenga, Corn Hole, board games, puzzles, darts, bar, outdoor grill, three levels of decks and an outdoor fire pit. Many of the furnishings in the lodge were made-to-order by Amish woodworkers in Pennsylvania out of aspen, white cedar, and hickory.

Sunset Mountain Lodge is conveniently located about 15-20 minutes from Blue Ridge, McCaysville, and Murphy, but also provides great privacy, peace, and quiet. The entire home, all levels, 2,200 total square feet of living space, on 3.25 acres of private land is all yours.

Boating and fishing are available at Lake Nottely (10 minute drive) and Lake Blue Ridge (20 minute drive), and there are many rivers and creeks with good fishing in the area as well. Other outdoor activities within a 15-30 minute drive away include kayaking, tubing, hiking, zip-lining, and paddle boarding. Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Casino is a 25 minute drive away, and there are multiple vineyards nearby that offer tours, tastings, and sales. Plenty of all types of shopping and restaurants in the three nearby towns and the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad is always a hit with adults and kids alike.

Walk out of the French doors from the third story bedroom and onto the private third-level deck to relax in the hanging chair and have a glass of wine while you admire the sunset. Guests in the main-floor bedroom can do the same and walk out of French doors to the main level deck and hanging chair! Gather around the wood-burning fireplace in the living room while you take in the mountain views through the two story windows. Venture downstairs to the game room and fix yourself a drink at the bar before playing a game of pool, foosball, darts, over a dozen board games (some for kids, some for family, and some for adults), puzzles, or Nintendo Wii while the game plays on the big-screen TV. Connect your phone or tablet to the Karaoke machine equipped with AutoTune and two microphones and sing your favorite songs. Head to the deck to play a game of corn-hole, Jenga, grill a dinner, or have a soak in the hot tub while you enjoy the mountain view with your friends and family. After the the sunset has completed its show, venture down the steps to the fire pit and cook s'mores around the fire.

The cabin sits several miles away from any main roads so you won't hear the sounds of traffic, and because the cabin sits at 1,900 feet atop a mountain ridge line of Poindexter Knob, you will hear the peaceful sound of the wind blowing over the trees and have a chance of experiencing snow in the winter.

The full kitchen is thoughtfully stocked with all the implements a foodie needs to prepare their masterpiece for friends and family, including items like a good sharp knife set, food processor, blender, muffin pans, cake pans, garlic press, whisk, measuring cups, mixing bowls, etc, and a large propane grill sits out on the deck for outdoor meal prep. The main level deck features a round glass dining table with four chairs, and the indoor dining area features a rectangular table with seating for eight.

Each of the three bedrooms are "master" bedrooms of the same size (13x13), all feature king size beds, and all have a TV and an adjacent full bathroom. The top two bedrooms feature full closets and French doors leading out to the decks. The bottom bedroom features an armoire with drawers, shelves and rod to hang clothes, and four windows. With three king size beds plus a sofabed with queen size memory-foam mattress in the game-room, you'll have space for up to eight guests.

Cellular service is generally 2-3 bars on most carriers with great voice quality and there is 300mbps internet (with Wifi that provides 60mbps) for those needing to get online for business or pleasure. Satellite TV in all bedrooms, living room, and game room, and each TV has a Roku streaming player that will allow you to log into any of your streaming accounts (such as Netflix, Disney, HBO, Amazon, Hulu, Youtube, etc) and stream your favorite content, and then automatically sign out of your accounts on your day of checkout.

The cabin is equipped with a clothes washer and dryer, and dishwasher, and we follow the latest COVID CDC cleaning protocols for hotels/motels.

You will be on paved roads until the last 1/2 mile when you turn onto gravel. The short half-mile gravel road is maintained annually. The last 1/8 mile of the road up to the lodge is a bit steep, but as long as there is no snow or ice on the road, ANY car, no matter how small or old, can easily drive it - you definitely don't need an SUV or four-wheel drive. If there is snow or ice on the road, you will want to take appropriate measures as you would driving in those conditions on any road.

Sunset Mountain Lodge has a standard Ring video door bell located next to the front entry door that provides video-only (audio disabled) security monitoring of the parking area, and the porch area directly in front of the front door.

The lodge is strictly non-smoking, non-vaping, and pets are not allowed. Thank you for helping me keep the lodge safe, clean, in excellent condition, and enjoyable for everyone!

Guests are provided with one bundle of firewood for their stay. Additional bundles of firewood can be purchased at the Chevron 5 minutes down the road, or at the main intersection in Mineral Bluff about 10 minutes away.

Sunset mountain lodge is my personal getaway and is the only property I rent so it gets all my focus and attention. I have worked hard to make it as clean, comfortable, inviting, entertaining and enjoyable as possible for people of all ages and I take great pride in providing a setting where people can make many lasting memories! The decor and furnishings of the cabin have been very carefully selected to set a cabin-appropriate ambiance - even the lighting ensures a warm "cabiny" glow and feel.

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take advantage of recreation opportunities such as a spa tub, or other amenities including an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Perfect mountain getaway
We stayed for a week to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and renew our vows. Everything was perfect! The view was amazing, we had everything we needed, and even the weather cooperated while we were there. The hot tub was perfect for the chilly nights and mornings. I loved the throw blankets so much that I ordered some for our house before we even left the cabin. We definitely want to stay again soon!

Wow! Wow! Wow! What a fantastic cabin and host! Our visit was a last-minute quick getaway with our adult kids and grandson. Jeff made the experience seamless and inviting. His attention to detail and customer service were extraordinary. The cabin was immaculate, perfectly decorated, and had a gorgeous view! It was everything we wanted. The quietness of the mountains was refreshing. The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/utensils. The three-king beds, three-attached baths, and wood-burning fireplace were the selling points for us. Its location to other attractions was an added benefit. We've stayed in several vacation rentals, and this one is at the top of the list. Looking forward to returning. Highly recommended! You won't be disappointed!

Perfect cabin on the mountain top
This property was fabulous! My family and I come to Blue Ridge every Labor Day and this cabin was by far one of our favorites. It is exactly as described. If you like to cook in, there are plenty of pots and pans, utensils, plates, and cups. It's the little things that make a difference to me. Hand soap in every bathroom, plenty of start up toilet paper and paper towels, even foil and plastic wrap. Jeffrey even leaves you a bundle of wood for the fire pit. The cabin was clean and well decorated. Beds were super comfortable and the game room downstairs was a blast. The hot tub was great! Owner communication was quick and easy. We really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to come back.

Beautiful Cabin
Enjoyed our stay at the cabin with our two adult children. It was very clean, and well appointed and is supplied with everything that you can think of, and then some. The living room furniture is very comfortable and there was plenty of room for the four of us. Loved the outdoor egg swings, loved listening to nature while drinking my morning coffee. Directions to the cabin were easy to find, and not a difficult drive at all. The cabin does face west, so late afternoon to sunset is very sunny and quite warm during our stay, it didn’t help that it was some of the hottest days of the year so far, but still cooler than in town. We adjusted to a later grilling time and spent time downstairs in the game room and enjoyed playing pool and watching whatever sports were on tv. It has a mini fridge so no need to keep going upstairs for your choice of beverage. We all enjoyed our en-suite rooms. Our son stayed in the basement suite, he said it was the most comfortable stay in any of our many cabin stays that he has had. He also appreciated the wifi connection for his classes, and gaming. The cabin is located in a secluded mountain neighborhood, you cannot see the other cabins, and there was zero traffic noise, other than the occasional car from the neighborhood. The view from the cabin is spectacular and would definitely be a great cabin for the fall. I would not mind returning to this cabin for some fall festivities next year.

This place is well-appointed with quality and style. You have everything you need, and exactly where you would think it should be. The 3 separate bedrooms with baths give privacy and the living room, game room and outdoor areas provide quality plenty of places to make memories. The egg chairs are great for morning coffee with the cupholders. All of the board games even had all of the pieces. Jeff was great to work with and his directions made everything clear. the provided information was all well-presented and easy to use whether it was for using the TV or where to go on a day trip! We will be back!

Cabin was perfect! Gorgeous views of the mountains and the sunset from the the three balconies. Stocked with everything you need - towels, extra pillows and blankets, plenty of dishes and utensils, and even dish soap, laundry detergent, etc to make your stay comfortable. The three bedrooms gave everyone their own space to wind down after long days of hiking and the game room on the bottom floor provided a great place for the family to come together and play pool, video games, darts, and more! It felt like a home away from home! Would definitely stay again.

One of the Best Places to Stay
My husband and I were in the area to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. We spent most of our time hiking and coming back each day to this lovely cabin was one of the best parts of our trip. Jeff has a fantastic cabin with just about everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It was clean and quiet. Although it is in a neighborhood development and there is some neighborhood noise during the day, it is private and quiet, especially at night. Jeff is a gracious and communicative host and quickly responded to our questions. We’ve stayed in many rental homes over the years and most have had less than comfortable beds. The upper floor bed is comfortable but soft, the main floor bed has a firmer mattress that was almost as good as ours at home. The drive to Blue Ridge for groceries isn’t bad, but plan ahead unless you’re planning to drive through Blue Ridge often. It’s close but inconvenient to go every day. The hot tub was one of the cleanest I’ve ever used and there’s plenty of non-screen entertainment options to keep everyone happy. The view off the deck is lovely. Jeff’s place is a gem. We’ll stay again if we’re ever in the area.

Very nice
We were really excited about our stay. The pictures made the place look so beautiful. When we arrived the cabin was a little too warm for our liking, I’d recommend with having all of the windows and the sun shining in to have the ac set a little lower, we arrived later in the evening so it took a while for the house to cool down before going to sleep. There is so many things to do at the cabin so when we decided to hang out for the day at the cabin we were never bored. The views were beautiful from the top room. I was set to believe we would be a little more private than we were, so when we were exploring the woods we did happen to walk onto a neighbors property that was a lot closer than we were lead to believe by the description. But it was still nice and a lot to explore. There was not a lot to do in the nearby town of blue ridge, so we did travel to Chattanooga and McCaysville. We absolutely loved that every bedroom had it’s own bathroom. With a larger group having to share a bathroom is a struggle sometimes. Would love to come back during the fall and see the different colors of the trees from the view from the cabin. Overall was a nice experience and not expensive at all!

OUR FAVORITE CABIN!!! We have stayed at a lot of places and this is by far is our favorite cabin. The pictures are very accurate and that sunset is breathtaking. One of the things I appreciated the most was how clean the place was. This is one of my biggest critiques and this cabin met our expectations. We also love to cook a lot and the kitchen was well equipped and even included things like a griddle and a waffle maker which our kids loved. Although we went out most days we did enjoy the hot tub (also one of the cleanest I have ever seen), fireplace, game room, comfy beds, soft towels, and the swings on the decks. I only wish we could have stayed one more day to enjoy more of the cabin. But I guess we will have to return to do that. ☺️

Great for a relaxation vacation!
My girlfriend and I came up for a week looking for a quiet, and peaceful vacation. What we got was even better than expected! The cabin truly is in the woods, on a dirt rd, on the side of the mountain. Nothing but the sounds of nature. Checking in was super easy. Make sure to read everything the owner sends for check-in. We both lost GPS service just like the pre checklist said, but were able to follow the step by step directions provided by the owner. So no issues at all! The kitchen was nicely stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, silverware, etc. There were also some spices and other cooking basics in the cabinet. The grill outside was also a nice addition. The hot tub is easy to use, has a nice view, and is fun to relax in while the sun sets. The bathrooms came with nice towels and little hotel style shampoo, conditioner, and soap. We went through the shampoo pretty quickly and used our own the rest of the trip. We used the firepit the last night of our stay and roasted hotdogs. The cabin was stocked with more than enough firewood for what we needed. Keep in mind the wood is located near the front door and the firepit is located around back down a bunch of stairs so you'll get some exercise if you use all the provided wood. Haha The cabin is about 15 mins or so from Downtown Blue Ridge and the River Valley Casino. Something to keep in mind is Blue Ridge stores and restaurants tend to have early closing times or are only open on certain days!
