The Rocky Roost is a three bedroom/three bath (sleeps 8), hand-hewn log cabin located in Banner Elk/Seven Devils. This inviting cabin is thoughtfully furnished and artfully decorated. It is meticulously maintained and owner managed since October 2022!! We work hard to be one of the best VRBO rentals in Seven Devils. Book today!!
The Rocky Roost boasts an open floor plan on the main level. The living room features a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace, and the dining area seats 8 with additional seating for 4 at the counter bar. There is also a table on the massive back porch that seats another 8!! The well-equipped kitchen has everything guests need to prepare meals. Guests can also enjoy using the gas grill on the rocking chair front porch.
The full-length, screened-in porch off of the main level is a wonderful retreat with its vine swing, Adirondack chairs, and hemlock outdoor dining table. The covered lower deck includes rocking chairs to take in the beautiful rhododendron in the spring and summer, and Devils Lake in the fall and winter months. Down another level from the back door is a fire-pit with Adirondack chairs ... the perfect place for roasting s'mores, sharing stories, and enjoying the nighttime air. Also out back is a covered gravel area for a fun game of corn hole. We have both full-sized corn hole boards and a mini-sized set for the little ones!! (Please note: if you are a former guest of The Rocky Roost, we no longer have a hot tub.)
A cozy bedroom with a queen bed is located on the main floor with access to a full bath. Upstairs guests will find another bedroom featuring a queen bed and a twin bed with a trundle and its own private bathroom. This bedroom opens to the loft, but has a privacy curtain that can be opened or closed. On the bottom floor is another bedroom with a queen size bed and has access to another full bathroom. You will find luxury linens and cozy blankets on all the beds with additional layers for cool mountain nights. Additionally, a queen size sleeper sofa is located on the lower level.

Spectrum service is provided, and guests can use their own accounts on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. There is a DVD player with the 50 inch television in the downstairs game room.

The Rocky Roost is in the Lakes neighborhood of Seven Devils and approximately 2.1 miles from Hwy 105. The road up can prove challenging in the winter months. Please plan on having 4WD/AWD/chains if there has been, or if there is a chance of, winter weather. You can do a websearch for "Seven Devils webcam" and find at least two showing current conditions.
We have a Ring doorbell at our front door, a Ring camera for the back deck stairs, and a Ring camera for the firepit - for safety reasons.
We hope that you will reserve your stay at The Rocky Roost sometime soon! Please note we are a pet and smoke free property.
