My husband, our 2 dogs and I have stayed in many VRBO properties, but this is our favorite. I can feel the stress melt away just driving up the driveway. This was our fourth stay at the cabin. It is always immaculate and the property manager is appropriately communicative. The view from the back porch is amazing! The hot tub is super nice. Our dogs love the large fenced-in yard and all of the doggie amenities. Thanks for another wonderful stay and we will definitely be back.
Wow! From the moment we pulled up, to the day we left, only positive things to say about Courage Cabin. Beautiful home, so many nice touches. It smelled so good! Comfy beds, clean, modern bathrooms, fully stocked coffee bar, and so much more! The hot tub was already heated when we arrived. The deck had amazing views! We took our son snowboarding at Applachain Ski resort, which was a quick 30 min ride. Boone was close by as well, and such a neat town. We are already booking our next vacation at this hidden gem.
Our second time to Courage Cabin. Such a great place! Has everything you could ask for and is very clean! Our first time was back in 2015. We got engaged that trip. This trip in 2024 we noticed all the upgrades they had done. All fantastic! Courage Cabin will always be a special place for us!
Amazing cabin, with everything you could ask for! A perfect getaway for our anniversary weekend!

This was our second time staying at the Courage Cabin, and once again, it was an absolute amazing time. The cabin is well equipped with anything you could need during your stay. The cleanliness of the house is impeccable. The wood burning fireplace is just an added bonus. We brought our own wood and were able to enjoy a roaring hot fire every night we were there. The hot tub is also a great amenity. It is relaxing to go have a soak on those cold, mountain nights. The owner Jill is wonderful! She is responsive and always there if you need anything. We look forward to our next stay...but until then, thank you for such a great experience!!!
