This was our second time here and we loved every moment! The home is so comfortable, secluded, but close enough to get to all of the things we love. I can’t recommend it enough and we will be back to “our mountain house”, as the kids say. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy mountain retreat! The views were absolutely stunning, especially in morning. The cabin was clean, well-stocked, and had a warm, rustic charm. Perfect spot for relaxing, hiking, and reconnecting with nature. We can’t wait to come back!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay for Day out with Thomas at Tweetsie Railroad. The accommodations were great, the property is beautiful and the host was amazing at communication! My grandson slept in the bottom bunk and that was his first night in a BIGboy bed! This trip was priceless! Thank you so much!

Enjoyed our stay! Great location - easy to get to Boone of course, but also Blowing Rock and Banner Elk. The house is cozy but plenty of space for the 4 of us. The garage space was perfect for the kids (college age), gave them their own hang out to play games and watch tv while we relaxed in the main house. Details for those on the fence - water pressure is good (we've stayed in places where it was a problem), beds very comfortable (thanks for chosing nice mattresses), basket of little items you might have forgotten, note boards for recommendations from host/guest for shopping, dining, etc. which was super helpful. Minor note: the shower bottles depicted in the photos were not all filled, so bring yours just in case. Certainty not a deal breaker. Saw deer on the property several days so a nice treat. Very satisfied with our stay!
