A Blowing Rock Property-Ideal for summer get-aways, fall colors, &winter skiing
Welcome to our mountain home! 9.8 rating with 303 guests' reviews
The mountain view is tremendous whether you love watching the sunrise at the start of the day or are more of a sunset person! Enjoy relaxing in the rockers on the large deck with a mountain view, or perhaps some time in the hot tub is more your idea of total relaxation! At dusk we often see deer in the back yard. Spend some time on the deck sitting around our gas fire pit. Take in an Appalachian football game this fall--10 minute drive to the stadium! Your dogs are welcome to join you on your getaway as well. We are a 5-minute drive from the ski slopes at Appalachian Ski Mt and a 10-minute drive from Tweetsie. In the summertime you can hear a faint train whistle in the backyard.
Our home is located at an elevation of 4,500 feet on Appalachian Ski Mountain in Blowing Rock. The main level consists of a comfortable living room with a 50-inch smart TV w/cable and DVD, stone fireplace with gas logs (operated with a remote control mounted on the wall) new (2025) leather recliner sectional sofa and loveseat, and 2 leather recliners with ottomans. We also have a good collection of books for the readers in your group!
The dining area has large windows to view the mountains, There is a large table with seating for 6, a small table with seating for 3--4, and 4 bar stools.
The kitchen is fully-equipped with dishwasher, microwave, Keurig and drip coffee-makers, coffee bean grinder, toaster, 2 crock pots, toaster oven, disposal, food processor, side-by-side refrigerator with icemaker and water and ice dispensers, glass-top range, disposal, cookware, extra large set of china and flatware.
The master suite (main level) has a king bed, cable 55-inch smart TV, private bath with glass-enclosed shower, and doors to the large wrap-around deck with the beautiful, covered hot tub overlooking the surrounding mountains. There is a hamper with beach towels located there for your use with the hot tub.
The main level also has a smaller 2nd bedroom with king bed, cable TV (Smart TV), and full bathroom (shower/tub).
Upstairs is a king bedroom with picture windows to view the mountains and overlooking the play area in the yard. It has a king bed, cable smart TV, and rocking chair.
The second bedroom upstairs has 2 double beds and also has a smart TV. There is a full bathroom with walk-in shower upstairs.
July 2025: New air conditioning system and furnace installed to ensure comfortable temperatures all year! There is a thermostat upstairs to allow that level to have its own desired temperature. The system is correctly operating at full power--cooling down to 60 degrees in the summer and toasty warm 80+ in the winter.
All mattresses and box springs are encased in certified bed bug protective covers for your safety.
The yard is large and relatively flat with a playground for kids and a bench in the backyard to sit and gaze at the views.
We have a gas fire pit, a gas grill and picnic table on the deck.
Our driveway is fairly flat, and is paved, and will accommodate up to 5 average-size vehicles--2 in the attached parking pad to the side, and 3 back-to-back in the driveway In the winter months we have a service that comes to clear the driveway for your safety.
Our private neighborhood is a nice place for walking, and we have a reading bench with a small outdoor library 2 blocks away. It is a very quiet neighborhood with very little traffic.
Our excellent cleaning staff prepares our home prior to your arrival and our certified hot tub technician cleans and sanitizes the hot tub prior to each guests' visit.
Conveniently located between Boone and Blowing Rock and close to the High Country attractions… it is a perfect mountain vacation home----ready for you to enjoy resting, relaxing, and spending time with family and friends.
We were very fortunate that we did not have any damage or water issues to our home from Hurricane Helene.
We do not offer long-term rentals (longer than 14 days.) Each year we have families that return for their vacations, so we do not want to prevent them from being able to return each year by accepting extended reservations from other guests.
