The fee item ‘property fee’ is $150 towards this cost, owner will pay the other $150.. more and more communities and towns are starting to restrict short term rentals, we try to keep our prices competitive but this is becoming the new normal and ‘the priceto pay’ to stay in a beautiful home and community in a easily accessed community. Please note there is a noise ordinance after 10pm on decks and this beautiful home is located in a country club where one must respect the rules of the community. We do not offer or provide club amenities but the home stands alone in its cleanliness large oversized decks and porch for entertaining, comfortable beds and so much more. We strive for perfection and making your stay a great stay!

Beautiful Woods

We stayed here for our trip to the Highland Games on Grandfather Mountain. The location was close enough to the games and far enough from the crowds. The only thing that I may have miss-read in the description was that three of the 4 bedrooms are downstairs which is basically the basement. There was only one (1) bedroom on the main floor. Four of us were seniors stairs aren’t always friendly.

Great family time here

This house was great for our family (7 adults, 1 baby) to meet at and stay a week. The wraparound porches were amazing, 2 large hammocks were used by most of us, and we used the grill and ate outside for 2 of our meals. The house and surrounding area is absolutely beautiful! We saw deer right outside several days. The house is completely updated and we would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Home & Location

Central location to everything in the area, but away from the chaos. We had deer outside our windows all day every day. No street or neighbor noise, just relaxation. Neighborhood could be tricky driving/parking for large SUVs or trucks although we saw others handling it with ease, and we were able to maneuver in an Armada.

Awesome July 4th getaway!

Blowing Rock is an amazing place during the week of July 4th! Cedar Retreat was the perfect place for our family to stay for our brief Independence Day getaway- very comfortable and well suited for cooking delicious meals and fun hanging out. Property Manager was easily accessible and super great to work with. We would come back again!

Relaxing getaway and great location

Really enjoyed our stay over a long weekend. The location is great - easy to get to sights in Boone and Blowing Rock, and the house has plenty of room. Really enjoyed the fireplace and views from each room. Shanaaz is wonderful, she even turned up the heat so I wouldn't arrive to a cold house. Excellent weekend with friends to leave work and responsibilities behind for a few days.

Long weekend getaway

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was lovely and so comfortable. Everything we needed was there. The view was amazing and the deck was very welcoming. The neighborhood was quiet and private. The owner was quick to respond to a question. The location was great, away from the busyness of downtown Boone but close enough to get there fairly quickly.We would recommend staying here.

Weekend Getaway

This house was perfect for a weekend getaway! We originally had planned to drive to the mountains for the day to look at the fall leaves; but when we saw this house on Vrbo was available, we decided to book it. Shanaaz, our host, was very kind and helpful throughout our stay. The house was beautiful with a large living area with a wood burning fireplace. The view was spectacular, and we enjoyed sitting on the wrap around deck. I would definitely recommend this house!

Thought of Everything.

Perfect last minute get away for our family. Tucked away in a gorgeous country club but still feels like you’re out in the woods a all alone. A family of five all had their own space. So clean and it felt so much like a cozy cabin that you wouldn’t want to leave. 5 stars!

Relaxing and wonderful weekend

This place was so great. The back deck goes across the entire house and is spacious with plenty of seating. The hammocks were wonderful. There was plenty of space inside for the 5 of us and we would have been comfortable with more! The house is exactly like the pictures. We had such a nice time!

Great mountain Retreat

Very nice place to stay during our family ski trip. The house was easy to get to and had wonderful views. Only issue we had was the hot water took a long time to warm up and the upstairs bathroom shower was not meant for taller people but for sure not anything to stop me from renting again and telling others about the house!

Our family decided to visit Blowing Rock and our children wanted to ski so this was the PERFECT location for both! The house is beautiful and has everything you need. Master bedroom is on main floor and 3 bed/2 bath downstairs. All beautiful, comfy, and clean. We will definitely return. Shanaaz communicated quickly to a few questions I had.

!Winter Wonderland

Booking process was easy as was check-in. Shanaaz was very helpful throughout the entire process and even came by the first day to make sure we had everything we needed. A major winter storm hit during our stay and I expressed concerns about the possibility of getting stranded. She assured me she would work with me on staying an extra night if needed and actually made those arrangements although they were not needed. She was fabulous! The owner even sent the neighbor by to make sure we had everything we needed. The house is exactly as pictured, The house is very clean and well kept. It was beautiful during the snow storm and because of the decks and sitting areas would be great in the Spring, Summer and Fall. I would highly recommend this house as it is in an ideal location. There is a short walk to the house from the parking area as there is no garage. The parking area is big enough so no worries (one of the biggest I saw within the resort). Actually, saw three deer while we were there. Would definitely recommend four wheel drive in the winter. The resort scraped the roads and applied salt four times during the storm while we were there. Very nice neighborhood and property. Another shout out to Shanaaz for making our stay enjoyable!!

About the host

Hosted by shanaaz eisenberg

Host profile image
My wife and I love vacations in the mountains and have had a long term goal of retiring here. We were renting a home this past december and found this wonderful home shortly there after.

Why they chose this property

We love this area and the gated community of Hound Ears. This home is centrally located to everything this area has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The front of the home faces a huge rock with a natural spring flowing down it's face and under the walkway leading up to the house. We also have created a 'bay of hammocks' for enjoying the wonderful mountain air.
