Very clean and cozy! Nice porch and rockers at the studio, but best view of Grandfather is from the "summer house" (which is behind the main house). Very convenient location for hiking in Moses Cone and exploring both Boone and Blowing Rock.

We thoroughly enjoyed our anniversary/babymoon trip to the mountains. Our only regret is not being able to stay longer! This is a perfect location close to Blowing Rock and Boone. We loved the theme and decor inside it was the perfect little studio. Erik and Sharon were thoughtful to leave us treats from a local bakery and a little gift for our baby on the way. Thank you for your hospitality; we’d love to stay again in the future!

Charming treetop cottage

We loved our stay. The place had everything we needed. It was cozy and a great location to downtown Blowing Rock, Just 12 minutes away. We really love the Summer Cottage and beautiful little stream nearby. The hosts were helpful, and it was a great get away.
