About Elizabeth Bunt

My husband and I fell in love with horses and mountains on a family vacation to Montana. To get away from the Arizona summer heat, we went every summer.

After my son started college we decided to buy our first horses. What a disaster ! Eventually we did find 2 well broke Tennessee Walkers that we rode in the Arizona mountains, across rivers no less! We were so new to all this, trusting our new friends with their horses , we felt no fear crossing rushing water waist deep. NOW, 20 years later? You would not be able to get me to do that for love or money!

We relocated to Columbia , SC with our 2 horses, dogs, and kitties and set up Morningstar Farms.

Suddenly, finding myself on 40 acres, instead of a postage stamp, my horse collection grew!

We enjoyed 10 years of breeding and raising Tennessee Walkers; getting involved with rescue organizations , and trail riding with friends.

Advancing age, and health issues are forcing us to scale down.

Elizabeth Bunt purchased this cabin in 2010
Why Elizabeth Bunt chose Boone

Our dream was to find a place in the mountains with trails right outside our door. Loading up horses in the trailer and driving hours was no longer do-able.

We found our 'Catbird Seat' , as my husband has named our beautiful home on top of the mountain surrounded by nature's beauty.

What makes this cabin unique

With retirement still a few years off, we enjoy our cabin on occasional weekends. I want to share the peaceful feeling of these mountains with others. When my guests arrive home after a few days, or week in these tranquil surroundings, they can pass that feeling onto their family and friends. It will make the world a better place.

Great cabin, beautiful property

5 of 5
Submitted: April 17, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Our stay at The Catbird Seat was wonderful! The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and had almost everything we could need. The one thing we couldn't find was a pizza cutter, but there were plenty of knives so we made do. We traveled with our four-month-old and felt very comfortable with her there. There was plenty if space for her to play on the floor and everything was clean so we had no worries. i did see an old high chair and baby gate, which we didn't need, but there wasn't a pack and play, as the accommodations said, so plan on bringing your own as we did. Just hanging out on the porch or deck was great and we enjoyed the view from the hot tub. The sunsets from the front porch couldnt be beat! The surrounding property was beautiful and we enjoyed the well maintained trails, creeks and waterfalls and looking at the horses. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Exactly what we needed

My husband and I stayed at the cabin for a long weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect. Clean, whimsical decor, comfortable bed, and that hot tub. We have no complaints about the stay or the cabin at all. The location is so fun and feels like you are in your own little world traveling the narrow winding mountain roads, passing the beautiful countryside and horses. Everything about it reads relaxation. With the exception of the drive in to arrive and drive out to depart we didnt leave the cabin the entire three days. There was no need; the serenity and peace the house provided was enough. Also, so NICE to have been able to bring our beagle, Audrey, with us on vacation. For a pet owner its such a treat to be able to share vacation time with the furry members of the family. We will definitely repeat our visits.

We had a great time. Although the weather did not cooperate, we still managed to have fun. Was hoping to see snow, but saw some on the ground in Boone. Went to Grandfather Mountain, it was great, snow everywhere. Just wish road to top was not closed. But I got to see my snow.
Little hint in cabin, the oven cooks a little hot, so be wary of that. Had a hot tub issue but it got on its way to being okay. I would suggest checking it when you get there, so if needed you can get maintenance man there asap Over all, great time!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Pet-friendly, Girls Getaway, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: We are so happy that your stay was relaxing and comfortable. Especially glad you called the maintenance man when you first arrived to look at the hot tub
That is the reason I leave a list of phone numbers handy for guests to call if they have questions or problems with equipment, appliances, Dish Network reception etc.
Thankfully, things were looked into early and your visit went well!
Hope to see you back this spring!
