Family Getaway

We enjoyed our time at the Gingerbread house! It was so relaxing and peaceful and the house had everything that we needed to make our stay an enjoyable experience. The communication with the owner was pleasant as well! Hope to return in the Fall!

Nice getaway

We loved this cabin! It was cozy, clean, and quiet. It was a nice little getaway from Florida for a weekend full of wedding activities in the mountains. My sister and I enjoyed coffee on the deck just listening to nature sounds. The kids enjoyed being somewhere new and my almost 2 year old loved being in the cooler weather as well as the rocking benches/couch. I had great communication with the owner and I appreciate the easy cleanup instructions. Hopefully we’ll get the chance to stay here again and get to adventure out more.

Overall great

We had to makeshift a blockade to keep the baby off the steps but it’s a homely place. Everyone loved it and were talking about coming back to another time so we could enjoy some of the other things in the area instead of just the soccer tournament. Thanks again for allowing my family and I to stay for our weekend

About the host

Hosted by Patti Weaver

I am the original owner of the Gingerbread House. My family and I bought the lot and built the home in 1996 as a vacation home. We live in Florida, but love to escape to the cabin for all of the beautiful seasons the mountains offer. It is quite simply "my happy place", and I'm delighted to share it with others!

Why they chose this property

I chose the area of Fleetwood Falls to build a cabin because it is not a high tourist traffic area. Rather, it's charm is all the nature that abounds for hiking, biking, fishing, tubing, or just plain relaxing. It is also very near Boone and Blowing Rock and West Jefferson, 3 unique towns that have much to offer.

What makes this property unique

We are so excited to announce we have just completed renovating part of the basement to include a great additional living area and full bathroom! The Gingerbread House has been built with love and care, and many happy memories have been made there from honeymoons, family times, Girl's shopping trips, Bachelor getaways, ski and golf trips, the list goes on and on. The unique location is close enough to larger towns, but far enough away to feel a sense of peace and relaxation. I love there are so many fun things to do and see, but I can also enjoy the splendor of quiet nature if I choose to do so.
