We absolutely loved our weekend getaway at Ruth’s place! Cleanliness was top notch. Host communication was great and Ruth provides lots of information prior to arrival and on property. location is perfectly located between several towns with lots to do. Downstairs game room was perfect for the kids to play. Lots of wildlife on property, was really cool to see.The hike to Beaver falls was a 1 min drive and pretty easy for anyone without mobility issues.

Our host was very responsive and accommodating when we had some issues with the fireplace. The views are indeed amazing. It is an extremely steep drive, so be prepared and take seriously the requirement for chains on your tires in winter. We had everything we needed on the main floor which worked since one of us can't do stairs. My favorite part was my pups being able to safely run around on the gated deck.

The house was awesome. Spacious and clean. If you fill it up, it's pretty cheap considering the amenities. The game room downstairs is great, between the pool table and the PacMan game and the hot tub is great too. Ruthie, our host, was always quick to respond to any questions. The check in process was super easy and the house was easy to get to, with ample parking. All in all, a great stay.

Great place

We had a fantastic stay! The house was very clean, in a great location, and the owners were incredibly helpful and welcoming. They provided clear directions, checked in on us, and made sure we had everything we needed. The layout worked perfectly for our two families — one set of parents on the top floor, another on the main, and the kids had their own space downstairs. It was well stocked with everything we needed and made our trip super comfortable and easy. Highly recommend!

Would definitely recommend and stay again!

A wonderful place with lots of space and beautiful views. Communication was excellent, and the house had everything we needed. We preordered groceries to be delivered when we arrived and it was perfect!! We spent a few fantastic days with Great Grandma and Great Grandpa.

We had an amazing Thanksgiving in this home. The kids loved having the downstairs to themselves and playing the arcade game and pool or their video games on the couch. The adults had the top two floors to themselves. We chilled by the fire, watched amazing sunrise with an incredible view of Grandfather mountain from our balcony. The hot tub was perfect! The fireplace was toasty and cozy while we watched the Macys day parade. House is perfect location close to so many things to do. We were able to do down town Boone, blowing rock, antique market, coffee shops, alpine coaster and banner elk, tweetsie Christmas train…..the list goes on! Host was outstanding! So informative and responsive. Made our stay even better. Hostess/host went above and beyond what the usual host/hostess does on here. Wish more were like this!

Great location and beautiful home

Our family had a lovely stay here and would DEFINITELY stay here again! The location is perfect between Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, and Boone. The house is exactly like the photos. The view is beautiful. The owners were quickly responsive with any question i asked whether it was about groceries stores or best gem mining location. We made s'mores in their fire pit, relaxed in the hot tub, played Pac-Man (which I loved so much and watching my 3 & 6 year old try it too), hiked Otter Falls which was so close to the house, and got to see deer right outside. I will definitely be booking this place next summer for another lovely vacation away from the Florida heat.

About the host

Our family loves to travel, and we've been known for some extensive itineraries; however, we always love coming to the NC mountains every year for the last 40+ years, so we decided to put down some roots with this second home. Our children are getting older & have travel sports commitments, so we are sharing our home with you when we can't use it.
