Quiet Getaway

We were there for an App State campus tour. It was only 15 minutes from campus but it is a nice quiet rural place.We also went hiking and there are many places to choose from that are all about 50 minutes or less drive.

Great Little Place

We were pleased with this house. It was perfect for our family. The beds were comfortable. It was well stocked. I enjoyed the large deck out front to sit and read. I liked that you felt like you were out, but there were homes close by. The drive into Boone was not too long. Will definitely stay again!

quaint and quiet neighborhood

Very clean, and so much more to offer than a hotel. Close enough to Boone but far enough away that you know it. My only negative is the window A/C unit, it is noisy. But overall, I would stay here again for sure.

Mother-Daughter weekend on a budget

Great value! Beautiful neighborhood scenery and close enough to town. Very comfy pillow-top queen bed and plenty of extra blankets and pillows. Every appliance we used worked as expected. If you hate washing dishes, bring paper plates and plastic utensils! The owner was immediately responsive when texted.

Winter weekend

Always nice and clean, have stayed here before. Was concerned that it may be a bit cold as the forecast called for below freezing temps the weekend we were to be there. Was definitely not cold in the residence. Quite warm, very nice. However, the sound of the heating system when engaged is noisy. To be expected in a small unit as this. Overall, very pleased. Will stay again.

Tubing trip to Hawk’s Nest

The property seemed very clean. There were neighbors, but not close by. We had a delightful time in the snow and enjoyed the location. The only thing that we had a problem with was getting around when the snow hit. Even our AWD SUV could not get up Wildcat road to even turn in to North Star where the property was located. A nice couple driving by helped us get back to the warmth. The Heater is very good, but also very loud. For a few moments we thought a horn was blasting, then found all of the heat registers were closed. Opening them dropped the decibel level.
