Welcome to The Sun Lodge –
Our 3,000-acre community is private, quiet, and perfect spot for a restful vacation.
Escape to the breathtaking beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains at The Sun Lodge, a secluded three-story lodge nestled within a gated community. Just 25 minutes from Boone and Wilkesboro, and only 20 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, this serene getaway is surrounded by hiking trails and natural beauty.
Designed with an open floor plan, The Sun Lodge offers a cozy yet spacious atmosphere:
Loft Retreat: Queen bed, half bath, private deck with stunning views, cozy sofa, and a reading chair.
Main Level: Well-stocked kitchen with premium Pampered Chef appliances, a fireplace, a game table, and a full bath.
Downstairs Bear’s Lair: King-size bed, wrap-around sofa, stereo television, an additional queen bedroom, full bath with jacuzzi jet bathtub, washer and dryer, and a walk-out basement leading to double hammocks.
Enjoy modern conveniences like super-fast Wi-Fi, perfect for remote work, along with peaceful wildlife-watching from our birdfeeders and hummingbird feeders. A gas grill on the deck makes for the perfect evening cookout.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
****Our tight spiral staircases may not be suitable for small children or elderly guests.
****If booking for five or more travelers, we just want to make sure you noticed that the house has an open floor plan with limited privacy. Both the loft and the basement king bedroom are open rooms.
Book your stay at The Sun Lodge and experience the beauty, relaxation, and adventure of the Blue Ridge Mountains!

Why they chose this property
We have loved spending time together in the mountains. We decided to find a get away place for us to relax and unwind. This was the first and only property we looked at. We fell in love right away.
What makes this property unique
One of the reasons we chose our cabin is for its peaceful seclusion and incredible views. With that being said, it will take you about 15 minutes from the gate house to reach The Sun Lodge. We love the winding roads and find it beautiful. Often we encounter deer, raccoons, fox, and wild turkey.
