House in the clouds

Family really enjoyed our stay in this cozy and comfortable house. There was plenty of room for everyone. It was foggy for most of our stay which was a different experience for us and we loved it. When it did clear, the view was lovely. We would definitely return.

5 stars!!

This house and the owners went above and beyond on all our expectations!! We rent homes in the area a few times a year and this was by far our best experience yet! Had to contact the owners a couple times and both times got a quick response and they were very helpful. The house was beautiful and we did not need to bring extra of everything like normal (toilet paper, towels, blankets, etc.). Was very happy with our stay and will definitely rent again if available. :)

Amazing views and outstanding house!!

This house and host had everything you need to stay here. I communicated with the host before and he responded quickly and with all the information we needed. We had a blast!! Could not have asked for better views from every part of the house. We arrived just before a snow storm and had a wonderful time playing in the snow. We didn’t need to go to the resort to snow tube because there was a perfect slop on property. We stopped at a grocery store and got food for the time we would be at the house and cooked every meal in the amazing kitchen. This house has it all!! The pictures do not do it justice!! I have rented vacation houses for the last 8 years and this is the best one yet!!!

The house provided a convenient place to stay in the area with great amenities. We enjoyed the hot tub & pool table.

Beautiful home with views

Our 2 families (4 total kids) had an amazing time at this home. It was nestled in the woods but had amazing views and sunrise. It was a 3 floor home with 3 proper bedrooms and 2 other areas (loft and basement) with extra bed options. The kitchen was amazing, modern, with lots of appliances/cookware and stacked with all the basics (spices etc) We enjoyed the fooseball table, pool table and board games. 3 TVs were large. Didn’t get a chance to try the hot tub on the deck but the fire pit was enjoyable. Very clean and was nicer than photos. Close drive to both Boone and blowing rock. Mins from appalacian ski mtn. Will be back again!

Why they chose this property

We loved this property from the moment we saw it. Primarily due to it's large, long range views and its proximity to both Boone and Blowing Rock. On a private blacktop, dead-end road with almost zero traffic. it offers privacy with a capital "P". It sits at the top of Flat Top/Appalachian Ski Mountain within 5 miles between both cities. At 4200 ft. elevation and is usually 2 - 3 degrees cooler than Downtown Blowing Rock.

What makes this property unique

The views, the views, the views... Also the fire pit and the hot tub outside or the Jacuzzi tub inside the master bath. There are three levels of decks, downstairs on the garage level is the rec room and outside on deck is the hot tub. The main level has a full deck as well with one end enclosed as a sun room off the master bedroom. The upstairs queen bedroom has its own private balcony to take in the long range views and overlooking Blowing Rock lights at night.
