The Feisty Fox - Beautiful log cabin with hot tub on sugar mountain with outdoor fireplace!

Welcome to The Feisty Fox! This beautiful 5 bedroom log cabin is located minutes to the ski slopes, golf course and hiking/biking trails of Sugar Mountain!

Enter into the living room and be greeted with beautiful vaulted ceilings that allows in natural light, a stacked-stone wood-burning fireplace, a flat screen TV ready to stream your favorite shows, and comfortable furniture! The perfect spot for the entire group! The kitchen is just around the corner and features stainless appliances and nice granite counters. Plenty of space! The kitchen will also be stocked with everything needed to prepare a delicious meal. There is a regular drip coffee maker (bring filters and your favorite coffee grounds!).

The master bedroom is on the main level and has a king bed in a hand-crafted wood bed frame. The ensuite bathroom has a tiled shower and double vanities. There is also deck access from this bedroom out onto the back porch! Upstairs are two additional bedrooms - one with 2 queen beds and the other with one queen. These bathroom share a full bathroom (shower/tub combo). Lastly, downstairs you will find a large game room with another flat screen TV for streaming, shuffleboard table and pull out sleeper sofa. There are two additional bedrooms on this level - one with a twin-over-queen bunkbed and the other with a queen bed. These bathrooms will also share a full bathroom (shower/tub combo).

The outside grounds are just as nice as the inside! Relax in the brand new hot tub or by the new firepit. Explore through the woods and around the creek on a nice spring or summer day! Head into town to shop and dine at some of Banner Elk's best restaurants! Boone and Blowing Rock are just a short drive, as well as the Blue Ridge Parkway!

Perfect for Us
With 3 floors it was wonderful to be able to divide up our 8 adults, 2 children, and 1 toddler. Kitchen had everything we needed and then some. We loved using the fireplace and big tv was great for watching the Carolina Duke game. Close to great activities and anything else we needed. Great time.

Perfect Family House
This was a wonderful house for extended family Spring Break! The rooms were set up to fit our needs, the master bath allowed for limited mobility needs, and the back porch fireplace was perfect for smores! The kitchen allowed us to easily cook meals for 10 people. The house is within minutes of grocery shopping and the Alpine Coaster as well as within 25 minutes of the Blue Ridge Parkway. We all decided that Banner Elk/Sugar Mountain is going to be a repeat vacation spot!

Blue Ridge Rentals are great
We didn’t actually stay in this home (can’t figure out how to review the one we did stay in) because there was a snow storm and the current guests were at risk of getting snowed in. So, the company gave us different options of other homes to avoid this problem. We chose one called Elk Island, and it was incredible! It was better than pictured, and we had a lovely time. I highly recommend Blue Ridge Vacation Rentals. They were very responsive and helpful. We will book with them again!

Keep Looking
We arrived an hour after check in and house was still being cleaned. That evening we realized the coffee pot was not usable, very dirty. We started calling housekeeping then, after several calls we received a new pot the following afternoon. The home is very dark, basement is cold. They provided space heaters, but it was not very comfortable. Oven was filthy, just not for us.

Best one yet!
I take my grandkids on a "Gramie and kids" vacation every summer. This year my daughters tagged along as well. Usually at the end of our vacations (even if we had a wonderful time) we are ready to get back home. Not the case this year. We could have stayed another week or two!The house was perfectly stocked , the beds,linens and towels were so comfortable, showers and tubs nice and roomy with plenty of hot water. It really felt like home away from home. We enjoyed a fire every night, Loved watching the many many fireflies preform for us! The proximity to everything was fantastic, Grocery stores we less than 10 min away. Within about a 20 min drive we were hiking on waterfall trails, ziplining, kayaking, horseback riding, gem finding, enjoying a sat farmers market,,shopping in Boone...It was a dream vacation and after every activity it felt wonderful to come back home, comfortable and cozy, We loved loved loved it!!!The house and neighborhood are perfect, secluded but not remote, wildlife visits, porches for rocking, we loved the porch fireplace, great TV's and fun games downstairs...and the hottub was the cherry on top. We brought our own extension cord and enjoyed the fun lights that are strung from tree to tree,,If there was an 11 to give we would definitely give it. Property management was professional and made the entire process smooth and seamless. We will be back and can hardly wait!!!

Wonderful Stay!
We came with a large group to ski at Sugar Mountain. The house had plenty of space, kitchen was stocked, linens and basic toiletries were provided. Communication with the 3rd party company was easy! Hot tub, fire pit, and sleds added to the amazing house. A quick 5 minute drive to ski. My only complaint is that You can hear EVERYTHING from every room directly through the walls or ceiling. If we had small children this would be a problem. Regardless we would come back and stay!

No Third Party Ever Again
We booked through VRBO, but then everything else was done through a 3rd party agency that handles the property. We never communicated with the actual owners. I would have told them, the house is beautiful, but the property management copy is not worth the money you are spending. We mainly had one issue. We had family coming from all directions and we really were sure what time we would all get there. I called the property manager, and she said that we COULD NOT check in early due to the property not being cleaned yet. Now all we were asking was for 2 hours early, which we would have gladly paid for. Instead of hanging out in the parking lot of the local grocery store, we decided to drop off suitcases, coolers and wood for the fire place, so we could drive around in 2 cars instead of 4. We got to the property around 1:30 and sat out back until checkin. NO ONE CAME TO CLEAN. I had just called around 12:30 to see if we could check in at 2 so unless they cleaned the entire 3 story house in an hour, then Im going to say the manager was not honest. AND if someone did clean, they need to do a better job on kitchen items. We had to re-wash most of the dishes before dinner. So bottom line. We LOVED the house, but the property management company will keep us from ever booking there again, or going through a 3rd party ever again.

A group of guys visited for a weekend golf trip and the cabin worked very well easily accomodating six of us. We had a lot of rain and spent more time at the cabin than we planned but it worked well, cooling down at night, and having great conversation on the back deck with a fire roaring!
