Crazy Like a Fox was originally built as a model home, with well over 3000 square feet, massive windows and high ceilings for a welcoming sense of spaciousness. Northern white cedar, large hand-hewn beams, and heart hickory flooring throughout provide a woodsy ambiance. Set on over an acre of landscaped yard, with layers of mountains beyond, this home is perfect for both indoor and outdoor living.
The heart of the home is the huge great room, featuring an exquisite floor-to-ceiling river rock gas fireplace, flanked by a wall of windows that bring the view inside. There’s plenty of comfy seating here around the fire, and a large flatscreen TV. The great room flows into the dining room, which seats 8. The dining room, in turn, is adjacent to the large chef’s kitchen, appointed with hickory cabinetry, granite counters, and a spacious island with a downdraft cooktop. This kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker and everything else you need for entertainment and meals at home. There’s also a half bath on this level, for guests.
The spacious master bedroom is also conveniently located just off the great room. Its king-size bed is built for your comfort, and the ensuite bath includes a walk-in shower, a soaking tub and granite counters.
Crazy Like a Fox features two additional levels, so your entire group will enjoy space and privacy. The upper level offers 1 king bedrooms and second bedroom with Queen and Full Size Beds and a full bath, as well as a loft, perfect for reading or working online. The lower level is a great place for entertaining guests and kids, with a TV, pool table and foosball. There’s an additional bedroom downstairs, too, offering a king size bed. plus another full bath and a utility room with a washer and dryer. The lower-level bedroom opens directly onto the lower deck, with its private rocking chair nook.
Of course, with this kind of beauty all around, you won’t want to stay inside. Crazy Like a Fox provides abundant outdoor space, with two decks, spanning the entire front of the house. You’ll love relaxing and entertaining out here, overlooking an expansive lawn and breathtaking mountains. Dine al fresco, taking advantage of the gas grill and outdoor table. After dark, gather around the fire pit for conversation and star-gazing. And be sure to save time just for chilling with a beverage, a good book, or a good friend. Ready to let the stress of everyday life melt away? This is your place.

This is the best cabin we have ever stayed at and I am 81 yrs old. Truly designed well for families of children and dogs! Good view, good kitchen, and good comfortable living! This is the second time my family has stayed there and hopefully we will again. Would like to know more about it. Well constructed!! It was a great Thanksgiving vacation. We will be back! We have recommend it to friends.- Nadine , Posted: 12/01/2024
Cabin was great and the view was awesome! Will stay here again.- John , Posted: 11/23/2024
We had a great week at Crazy Like a Fox. The cabin is a perfect rental if you travel with your dog. The fenced yard was so great to have. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking our meals. The beds were comfortable too. We enjoyed the deck, especially in the afternoons when the small herd of deer would come by for the dinner. Due to Hurricane Helene, most of our favorite activities were closed. We did enjoy Grayson Highlands State Park, Whitetop Mountain, Pilot Mountain State Park and the Yadkin Valley Wineries. We definitely will consider renting here again.- Rachel , Posted: 10/30/2024
We had a great stay here. Excellent layout, everyone had their own space. The views were beautiful. The home is well stocked with everything you need. Hanging out downstairs and playing pool was one of our favorite parts. Easy to get to and very quiet and relaxing. We will definitely stay here again!- James , Posted: 10/24/2024
We all had such a wonderful time during our stay at Crazy Like A Fox. The home had every amenity we needed plus a whole lot more. It was clean, and spacious plus the weather allowed us to enjoy eating on the deck and the outside. It was a great vacation and we hope to be able to visit again.- Peggy , Posted: 06/10/2024
The house was spectacular. An HGTV version of a log cabin. Fully equipped kitchen, comfortable and stylish furniture, and tv's that allowed us to log in to our own streaming services. We had a dog and appreciated the fenced yard and the poop bags that were provided. We barbecued and sat out on the deck in rocking chairs. Very relaxing and extremely well appointed.- Jennifer , Posted: 04/01/2024
The house was well-equipped and had everything we needed for a last-minute trip to Sparta. Check-in was easy. The bedrooms fit our family of 10, and the views were beautiful. We would recommend it and will stay again when we return to Sparta.- Amanda , Posted: 02/14/2024
We had a great time with our group of 10 people. The house was comfortable and we found what we needed in the well stocked kitchen. The bedrooms were comfortable and we enjoyed the beautiful views.- Amanda , Posted: 02/11/2024
Nicest cabin I have ever rented and I have been stating in the mountains for 35 years! Beautiful country and location. Well worth the cost. Architecture design was a showplace!- Nadine , Posted: 11/26/2023
We loved our weekend vacation! All of us: 5 adults, 4 children, and 2 dogs. There was elbow room for all, the cabin was beautiful and comfy at the same time-not easy to achieve, and the fall leaves were glorious.- Carol , Posted: 10/16/2023
Our family gathered at Crazy Like a Fox for the Labor Day weekend and enjoyed every minute. The house delivered everything we expected. Our one small question (where are the pool balls?) was answered quickly and satisfactorily by Stay Blue Ridge. We had the space we needed for everyone to sleep comfortably, even my 7 month old grandson's pack and play fit easily in one of the spacious bedrooms. The deck and grounds were lovely and accommodated all our outdoor leisure time. The fire pit is great and there are plenty of shade trees. We didn't even leave to explore the area because the spot was so beautiful! It was a pup's paradise too. We cooked all our meals at the house and even baked a birthday cake. We found the kitchen to be well supplied. Overall a great trip! We would love to return!- Debbie , Posted: 09/05/2023
The location was beautiful. The amenities were amazing. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.- Ashley , Posted: 08/23/2023
REAL LOG CABIN. GOOD KITCHEN APPLIANCES AND ABUNDANT UTENSILS. VERY ROOMY. GOOD FURNISHINGS. DECKS HAD ROOM FOR CORNHOLE GAME. EVERYTHING WORKED WELL.- John , Posted: 08/17/2023
We brought motorcycles and were close to some amazing rides. The cabin was perfect for 4 couples, we had everything we needed and provided a great place to gather at the end of the day. The scenery, location, and cabin was everything we had hoped it would be. Would definitely stay here again in the future.- Phillip , Posted: 08/01/2023
A very spacious home in a really quiet area. The fenced in yard was wonderful for our dog. Great view from the deck.- Curtis , Posted: 07/22/2023
We stayed with our friends, kids and dogs at Crazy Like a Fox. It is a beautiful, quiet, safe location. A comfortable and gorgeous home. We loved the fenced yard for the dogs, and sometimes the kids! It was too cold to use the fire pit, but we enjoyed the fireplace in the cabin. Sparta is a quick drive and a very cute town to visit. Would come back again!- Stephanie , Posted: 02/01/2023
My family and I had a great stay at this home. Loved the fenced yard/deck for the dogs. Home was very comfortable and had beautiful views! Many great family memories were made. Thanks for the lovely stay.- Randi , Posted: 01/01/2023
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your cabin. It was very comfortable and well-maintained. We were impressed that even though it was a pet friendly home, it was extremely clean. The fenced in yard was absolutely perfect for our grand puppies. Only thing we couldn't find was a set of steak knives, but we made do. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin!- James , Posted: 10/30/2022
Beautiful view and awesome house.- Joey , Posted: 10/28/2022
Location is beautiful and remote. Good place to disconnect from busy normal life and kickback and relax. Close to needed shopping areas and good restaurants. Variety of hiking trails for beginners or avid hikers.- JanIce , Posted: 09/26/2022
Property is very clean, family-oriented, and the area is breathtaking. The house is beautiful, and was perfect for getaway.- John , Posted: 09/12/2022
This is a beautiful home, well appointed throughout. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the mountains.- Pauline , Posted: 09/09/2022
Wonderful spacious log cabin for the whole family. Great kitchen with double oven, large island and counter space. Really enjoyed the downstairs game room with pool table. Look forward to another stay at Crazy Like a Fox.- Tammy , Posted: 08/20/2022
Crazy Like A Fox Log Cabin in Sparta is a lovely place for a family or group to gather and spend time outside of Sparta. The vista is spectacular and the home is well appointed. Plenty of room on two floors and a third finished basement. The pool table was a hit!- Brian , Posted: 08/01/2022
The house was well prepared and very clean. The yard was fantastic for children and the fenced area would be great for pets. A nice play for us to stay while attending a family reunion.- David , Posted: 07/22/2022
We loved it none of us wanted to leave The kitchen was amazing and the view was perfect- Amanda , Posted: 07/17/2022
Everything was exactly as advertised. The property was well equipped, clean and comfortable and well maintained. It was nice to have the fenced in yard for the dogs. Crazy like a Fox is in a small residential community in a beautiful remote location, very quiet with lots of wildlife. It is about a 15 minute drive to the town of Sparta. We hope to get back again soon.- Bryan , Posted: 05/31/2022
