Orchid Cabin

Welcome to Orchid Cabin, in the charming Valle Crucis community. Enjoy your evenings on the balcony listening to the music from the nearby Mast Farm Inn. Enjoy the playground, paved walking paths, or trout fishing in the Valle Crucis Community Park only half a mile down the road. Next to the park is the famous Mast General Store Annex. Less than a mile from the house is also the charming restaurant, Over Yonder, with over 300 reviews online. Situated on the hillside, Orchid Cabin has an entrance on the main level and also one directly to the lower level. At the main entrance, you'll find a small back patio. Inside, the cozy living room focuses on the wood-burning fireplace with sofa and chairs. A TV let's you watch your favourite show, or just gather around and catch up with friends. The kitchen and dining is nearby with stainless appliances, granite counters, and seating for up to eight. Three queen bedrooms are on the main level. To one side of the living area is a queen suite with tiled shower. Across the living room are two more queen bedrooms with a jack and jill bath between them. Double vanities offer space for your belongings. There is a narrow spiral staircase with gate leading you downstairs. Pets, little ones, and those with mobility access will want to use caution, but there is a center pole and grab bars to steady oneself all the way down. Once down, you'll find the lower den with wood stove and a second living space, including a twin bed with twin trundle underneath in the corner. Off of the den are a queen bedroom and a small bonus space with a set of twin over twin bunks. A third full bathroom and laundry center on are on the lower level, as well.
