2 Bedroom Cabin in Burnsville
ALMOST HEAVEN — MAIN FLOOR · 2BR RIVERFRONT MOUNTAIN CABIN · BURNSVILLE, NC · SLEEPS 4
Sleeps 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 1.5 Baths | Outdoor Hot Tub + Indoor Jacuzzi Tub | Riverfront | Dogs Welcome
PorchLight Stays' Almost Heaven Main Floor is the intimate version of one of western NC's most beloved mountain cabins — a two-bedroom riverfront retreat on the South Toe River that guests consistently describe as the most well-stocked Airbnb they've ever stayed in. The main floor features an open-concept living room with a propane fireplace, soaring ceilings, skylights, and a floor-to-ceiling bookcase filled with the original owner's curated library of history and classic literature. The renovated gourmet kitchen — stocked with an instant pot, air fryer, burr grinder, frother, and every cooking essential — is the thing guests mention first in reviews. The private outdoor hot tub sits on its own deck with mountain and river views. The master suite has a spacious indoor jacuzzi tub as well. The South Toe River runs alongside the cabin — the sound of the water from the deck in the morning, with birds, is what guests say they remember most.
FALL AT ALMOST HEAVEN — MAIN FLOOR
At 3,200 ft on the South Toe River, fall color begins as early as late September and runs through October — a full month of spectacular mountain and riverfront foliage, earlier and more vivid than lower elevations and valley towns. The creek sounds and the fall color arrive together. The outdoor hot tub, indoor jacuzzi tub, fire table, and propane fireplace mean the property works in any October weather. Roaring Creek Falls is 4 minutes away and is particularly stunning in fall color. Peak color typically mid-to-late October — but the entire late September through October window is bookable and beautiful. One guest put it simply: "I can't imagine a more beautiful time than Fall."
THE KITCHEN — Most Well-Stocked in the Area
The kitchen is stocked at a level guests consistently describe as the best they've ever encountered in an Airbnb. Instant pot, air fryer, every size of baking sheet and pot, spices, cooking basics — everything needed for a full week of real cooking. The coffee station has whole beans, a burr grinder, a drip maker, and a milk frother. One guest who had installed their own dedicated coffee setup at home called this one "absolutely amazing." Hershey's Kisses on arrival. Grocery stores are about 30 minutes away — the kitchen is stocked so you arrive and cook, not scramble.
THE CREEK & THE DECKS
The South Toe River runs alongside the cabin. From the decks you hear it; in the morning through the windows you hear it with the birds. Deer graze in the yard. There's a sitting area under the deck for wildlife watching, a walking path along the creek, and the golf course grounds a 5-minute walk away. In the evenings: the outdoor hot tub on its own deck with mountain and river views, the fire table, the creek sounds. Inside: a spacious jacuzzi tub in the master bath for a different kind of evening. Guests name both in reviews — they're two distinct experiences.
