Venture out on scenic walks along Ironweed Road or let your pups play freely in the yard while you unwind on the deck or by the fire pit. The home’s pet-friendly policy welcomes up to four well-trained dogs, so every furry friend can join the fun. Local pet-friendly hikes like the Mast General Store trail in Valle Crucis await, and after a day outdoors, easy-clean amenities make relaxing with your furry companion simple.

The spacious common areas with floor-to-ceiling mountain views create a relaxing, luxurious backdrop for reunions. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, Mountaineer Manor ensures comfort and privacy for every guest.

Mountain Adventure Outpost
Outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to hiking, fishing, and adventure.

After exploring, return for a soak in the private hot tub or gather around the fire pit for stories and stargazing. In winter, prepare for a true mountain experience—access may require 4WD/AWD or chains due to the narrow, uphill gravel driveway and local weather. Nearby ski slopes such as Appalachian Ski Mountain and Sugar Mountain Resort offer snowy adventures.
