Nestled at the foot of Ice Mountain and just beyond the shore of the North River, your luxurious mountain lodge awaits. Made of impressive 150 year old logs and custom designed by international designer, Stephen Bauer, Mountainaire guarantees a stylish and comfortable getaway. The huge, screened in wrap around porch is where you’ll want to spend your days, taking in the mountain views while listening to the flowing waters of the North River. Sip espresso from the hand bent hickory rocking chairs. Light a fire in the outdoor stone stacked fireplace. Dine alfresco around the 12 person French farm table or curl up with a good book on one of the 4 outdoor beds. Feeling like a dip? Enjoy either the 3 season plunge spa (open early May - late September) or the 6 person hot tub (open Early October - Late April). Gather around the fire table with 10 of your closest friends.
Once inside, the romance deepens. You enter and are amazed by the soaring ceiling of the open air living space, that includes a gourmet kitchen and dining area. You’ll find dual dishwashers, stove, refrigerator, granite counters, and everything your inner chef desires. Also on this floor, you’ll find a half bath, laundry area, and master suite. The master suite boasts a king size four poster bed, and adjoining master bath. The caramel marble tiled master bath has a large tub, oversized separate shower with jets to massage all your worries away. Also, within the shower is a steam feature. Other extras include large closets and a heated towel rack.
Journey to the second floor and discover three bedrooms and another full bath. The cherry room, aptly named because the entire room is paneled in cherry wood, has an antique iron four poster queen size bed. The white room is a cozy space featuring a full size bed. Both rooms have oversized closets, cow skin rugs, and rustic touches. The third room, inspired by the iconic red barns of the North East, features 2 twin beds, with trundles.
The lower floor is all about fun. Here you’ll find 3 bunk beds tucked in beneath the stairs. For more sleeping space, take advantage of the 2 trundle beds beneath. There’s also a generous bathroom featuring a slate shower. Grab a beer from the old coke fridge and play a game of billiards on our 1963 Valley Pool Table. Keep the night going with a fun game of darts, or settle in for movie night on the large projector screen. We’ve purposefully eliminated TV to give you that unplugged feeling, but streaming is available.
Take a short walk to the river, and you’ll pass a fire ring that beckons for late night s’mores. Settle around the fire in the oversized Adirondack chairs and drink in the black night sky ablaze with a billion stars. Not to be missed is the mini log cabin tree house.
SNOW / ICE IN THE WINTER MONTHS
Please be advised that we are located in a fairly remote area, and even the state roads are not always plowed and salted immediately. We strongly recommend 4WD vehicles when inclement weather is likely. The last mile is a well maintained gravel road, and during regular weather conditions, non-4WD vehicles have no issues with access, however, when there is ice or snow, access can be challenging. We do have a “snow plowing” service that plows when we get more than 4″ of snow.
Please be advised that our property is equipped with external video and audio surveillance, and noise sensors.

Testimonials
What our guests are saying
Our group of 10 could not have been happier with the house, its location, and all of the amenities. Stephen & Mary thought of everything! The kitchen is well appointed, every bed is comfortable with quality bed linens, between the indoor and outdoor space there is enough space for everyone to spread out and do their own thing but also space for communal dining and gathering. The hot tub made it so we could still enjoy the outdoor area despite the chilly temps...
REBECCA D (WASHINGTON DC)
This cabin exceeds all expectations!
WOW. WOW. WOW. Mountainaire is one of the most beautifully designed and outfitted homes we've visited - and we've stayed in some pretty amazing places. The cabin vibe and interior design and furniture are impeccable. The beds and linens are top-notch and super comfortable. The bathrooms are exquisite and spacious, and the kitchen is well stocked. But the truly amazing part of this home is the wrap-around porch and lower deck..
JACKIE L (BALTIMORE MD)
Spectacular property in a beautiful location
We had a wonderful time at this cabin! The home was beautiful and clean inside and out. It was well appointed with everything our group needed. Stephen was extremely responsive to our questions and available by phone when needed. We had a great time lounging on the deck, soaking in the pool and hot tub, and sitting around the camp fire. There is a large field where we enjoyed numerous yard games while we grilled on the on the Weber Mastertouch kettle. Right around dusk, the woods FILLED with fireflies like nothing I have ever seen...
