The location was great. The condo was well stocked and clean. Making breakfast for 5 college students was really easy. The condo had parking for 2 cars. I would rent this unit again. The view off the deck is stunning.

Spectacular Views

Cozy and conveniently located, this townhome style apartment was everything we were looking for in the Blowing Rock area…and with great views of the mountains!!! The drive up ski mountain was scenic with beautiful foliage, yet close enough to downtown it was easy to stop for an ice cream cone at Kilwins. The Blue Ridge Parkway entrance is so close that you’re just 20 mins to all the best spots - Grandfather Mtn, Moses Cone, and the Linn Cove Viaduct. We loved our stay here!!!

Hike, ski, or just enjoy the sunrise

The view, the fireplace, the homey touches and spectacular hiking made our stay as enjoyable as last year's. Skiers and snowboarders enjoy nearby Appalachian Ski Mountain, and it's a short drive to restaurants and attractions in Blowing Rock and Boone. Host is most helpful and available.

Perfect getaway to see the fall foliage! The location was convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Boone. Absolutely loved to see the sunrise over the mountains while sipping coffee. Home was clean and cutely decorated. Host communicated with us before the stay and quickly responded to texts. We will be back!

This is a lovely and loved spot. Decorated for fall a nice touch. Sparkling clean, beautiful view, everything you could need or want. So close to Blowing Rock and Boone, but still in a quiet location with a gorgeous view. Owner was a dream to communicate with as needed. Thank you for a great and relaxing retreat.

Quiet location and perfect base for exploring Boone or Blowing Rock

The property is in a great location and has a very nice Eastern view. The back porch in the morning is so peaceful and relaxing! As mentioned in the listing, this facility is the top floor of a two floor unit. Both the lower unit and upper unit are accessed from ground level. Parking is right next to the doors. The unit has two nice sized bedrooms and both have a private bathroom. The living room and kitchen are connected in an open one-floor arrangement. We were really impressed with how well equipped the unit was! So many pots, pans, dishes, plates, mugs, glasses, utensils, games, music, DVDs and three nice TVs if you want to use them. One of our college-aged daughters chose to also use the pull out couch one night and it was actually comfortable per her report! We found communication with the owner very easy and had texted a few times before, at arrival and on departure. Recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Bateman

Host profile image
We are an active family of 4 who enjoy all the outdoor activities the area has to offer. We've been vacationing here for years, see above photo taken in 2001. Our kids are both in college now!

Why they chose this property

After spending a few summers vacationing in Blowing Rock, my parents-in-law liked the area so much, they purchased this condo in 2001 as their summer home. It became a tradition for our family to come visit them each summer and we have many happy memories here. So last year, when my in-laws decided they were getting too old to make the trip any longer, we decided to buy it from them and continue the tradition. This is the first time it has been available to rent. If you decide to rent from us, we hope your family loves it here as much as ours has!
