This magical house was the perfect place to stop over after coming home from a south carolina beach. I feel so blessed to have found it. Someone is a true decorator. It is beautiful and quaint at the same time. We will definitely be back if not just for a vacation in itself. Thank you for having us!

This is a precious and very special spot! Great location for Blowing Rock or Boone. Enjoyed our stay very much! If you go, be sure to take your coffee or a glass of wine through the Woodland Walk to the little cottage with a great view of Grandfather Mountain. You’ll be glad you did!

This was the most adorable place and perfect for two to four people. we totally enjoyed our stay here. And the host was very accommodating with having a last minute guest. Very happy we found this gem instead of a hotel for our daughter's graduation at App State.

What a gracious host and a most lovely property! We enjoyed the seclusion! It was absolutely silent at night. The kitchen was well-stocked, the bed was comfortable, and the deck was perfect with a great.view of Grandfather Mountain. We lacked for nothing.

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.
