Tucked down the side of the mountain on 3.43 acres with private access to Upper Creek, relax and unwind in our family cabin then hit one of the many nearby hiking trails. Only 7 miles to the Brown Mountain OHV trails (34 miles of off roading trails) and Brown Mountain Beach Resort, 9 miles to Upper Creek Falls, 12 miles to Wilson’s Creek, 13.5 miles to Hawksbill Mountain, 17 miles to Linville Falls, 18 miles to Table Rock, 24 miles to Grandfather Mountain.

Enjoy peaceful creekside solitude at Rohos Cabin - named for the funniest man to ever live in Burke County, NC - Roho, M.D., stand up comedian (and my dad).

Neighbors across the creek are cows and donkeys; Daniel Boone Campground neighbors to the North. Steele Creek Park is across 181.

There’s plenty to do in Morganton (20 minutes to downtown) and Lenoir (25 minutes away). Or take a day trip to Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Boone, Black Mountain, or Asheville - all less than an hour drive.

Our Goodland wood burning (soaking) hot tub nestled high under the rocks with a fantastic view of the creek and valley is truly an epic experience, but it is one you must WORK for. The soaking (no jets) hot tub is sanitized and left empty after each stay. You will need to rinse it, fill it with fresh water (pumped from the creek), and then heat the water with a wood fire (unless you prefer a cold plunge!). The process takes from 2.5-4 hours, but the reward is well worth it. It is a unique experience that requires slowing down to enjoy the ritual of building the fire, heating the water and enjoying a chemical free, environmentally friendly soak. Goodland calls it the pursuit of pause - and we highly recommend it.

Driveway is steep and not for the faint of heart. Drive slowly and bravely and you’ll be fine.
Or you can park at the upper parking area and take the stairs down the mountain. Be sure to visit the rock formation using the other set of stairs. All built by Roho when the cabin was his home.

Up to two dogs allowed with pet fee of $100, subject to approval at time of booking.

Enjoy the provided linens, towels, and earth friendly products (such as Grove) - naturally derived hair products and soaps, recycled trash bags, etc. Cleaning products used are also earth friendly.

Satellite internet with wifi is available but it is slower than what you are probably used to. Streaming is possible with the provided Fire Stick, but live action gaming and VPN are not recommended. DVDs, books, games, and puzzles are available for some internet free entertainment. Cell service is spotty; a phone is available (uses satellite internet).

Living space is 520 square feet on one level. Freshly painted inside and out; hardwoods in living room; new laminate flooring in other rooms. Several steps up to deck for entry. Washer and dryer are in walkout basement.

Small bedroom has a queen size bed with a new Lucid 12” hybrid mattress - all new furniture and bedding; 32” TV with DVD player, alarm clock, and charging ports.

Living room offers a full-size daybed with twin trundle, new loveseat and rocking recliner, 50” TV with DVD player and wood stove. Small dining area is open to living room and just outside the kitchen.

Full kitchen has an apartment size electric range (4 burners and small oven) and a new retro style 12 cubic ft fridge with freezer. Countertop ice maker available. Cuisinart toaster oven /air fryer. No dishwasher- sorry. Cookware, plates, utensils, etc. all provided.

Ceiling fans in living room, bedroom and kitchen. Powerful mini split for electric heat and air conditioning throughout.

Outside enjoy views and sounds of the creek from two levels of decks. Propane grill and outdoor seating provided. Rock patio with seating located closer to the creek. Rock fire pit with log seating - please check local burn warnings before using it and pour water on it after use. If you see firewood stacked nearby, feel free to use it.
Or jump on in the water - we have private creek access with a rock path down to the creek. For your safety, shoes should be worn at all times outdoors, including in the creek.

BUGS - this is the woods by a creek- bugs love it here (can you blame them?). Expect bugs outside and bring your favorite repellent. Hopefully none will make it inside.

Security cameras are located on each side of the property to monitor the driveway and primary entrances.

$100 damage deposit and signed rental agreement required.

Property is owned and made available by Roho’s Cabin, LLC.

Getting around

Driveway is steep and not for the faint of heart - drive slowly.
Or you can park at the upper parking area and take the stairs down the mountain.

When parking at cabin, pull into gravel to the left and either park there or back down to the parking bumper to park closest to cabin. It is easier to get up the driveway if backed in.
